LTE is the only possible feature that makes postponing the iPhone 5 to the fall a smart decision. I am not convinced it's going to happen, but I don't understand all these comments about how this fall would be "too soon." Most of the major phones released this year have 4G capability. Anyone who buys an iPhone 5 in Sept/Oct will be stuck with it until almost 2013, when LTE will be widespread on both AT&T and Verizon.
I can't possibly imagine anyone (who lives on the coasts, anyway) buying a smartphone in Sept/Oct 2011 that is not LTE capable.
I think Apple is on to something here. No matter what amazing features the iPhone 5 has, if it came in June or July and it didn't have LTE capability, then the refrain across its lifetime would be: "Yeah, it's a great phone, but it's not 4G."
After all the antennagate hype, Apple doesn't need to build a similar failure right into the iPhone 5. And, as others have pointed out, this allows Apple to go back to its previous naming convention, by following the iPhone 4 with the iPhone 4G.

I have to say I mainly agree with Jobs on this one.
Microsoft is encouraging "nerdiness" while Apple is telling you to live your life and interact with one another.
I guess his point is that the world has become a colder place, with serious lack of human contact promoted by the internet and the digital content that surrounds us. I'm all in favor to true human interaction, switching earbuds and etc, do we really need to send something to someone that is 5 feet away? Just get up and go there... And c'mon, whoever is saying that they're disgusted of putting on someone else's earbud is just being paranoid and picky, like the "shark attack" and "killer bee's" danger, it's just in your head, you ain't getting AIDS from an earbud...
IMO people need to get out more, talk to each other and stop doing everything wirelessly and digitally. :rolleyes:
JOBS RULLLLLZZZZ! (I lost it now...)

The sandboxing done on the iPhone means no application can access other applications data, and the only access they have is to the address book. This could be mitigated by prompting the user to allow an app to be granted access to the address book in cases where the app wasn't approved by apple.
Couldn't Facebook also approve all of their applications by default, and only be given access to a user's personal information by explicit consent of that user?

nice to know that the website says my battery doesn't qualify, even thou it does, and i have tried other battery serial numbers and they also say it doesn't qualify.
So i call and they say it can't be done right now.
This is great especially since i will either be in school or at work during all times that applecare is open

Is it that the welfare system in Sweden, or for that matter the US, isn't enough to adequately shift the strictures of poverty
I don't want to derail the thread, but you have me wondering where welfare systems have been successful in shifting the strictures of poverty on an ongoing basis. But may be left for a different thread.

I expected more in a shorter period of time to be honest.
Edit: more specifically with the album sales
I think most Beatles fans ripped all the CDs in long ago, at least that what I did.

i bought a macbook 2ghz core duo, 1gb, 80gb, superdrive at the apple store this past sunday. it looks like now i could of gotten the core 2 duo with all the other same specs for about $200 cheaper. does anyone know if apple has some sort of exchange policy for situations like this?
Apple has a 14 day return policy, bring it back.
Can't hurt to try, anyway :)

Very likely home platinum, possibly professional if they are buying a expensive high end machine.
MS has spread their lineup to thin, $500 for the ultimate every 5-10 years, I would rather got the apple route, $130 for the entire thing every few years and at least I feel continues advances than one big bang.
You mean Home Premium? :confused:

Looks like a slight price drop in the UK - black macbook for under 1000. Bet they shift a lot of units.
Isn't it only a �30 drop - only done it so that it appears to be under a grand. Its not a significant drop - shame really, because its still so much more than the white one!

Is it just me or do the colors seem brighter than the Mini's? It could just be my screen.
They look brighter to me, as well. Can't wait to get my Silver one!

Has anyone considered that apple might not be realeasing the wide screen super secret video ipod because it dosn't exist?
lets all think for a second...
1) touch screens are weak, soft, and matte, not iPod at all
2) they get printy and scratched very easily
3) they would go through oodles of batter power
4) Apple would not make the thing bigger just to hold the extra battery
5) battery life would STINK
6) touch screen starts to complicate the interface, goes against apple's easy as pie rule
7) the thing would have to cost a fortune
please dont kill me, but does anyone have proof, or is it just a dream of perfection?
p.s. does anyone know if they will webcast the event?
hmmm
1) No
2) No
3) No, see pda phones, which go for 2-3 days. iPod, with a harddisk, could go for 5+ hours.
4)Yep, right.
5) No, it would not.
6) No, touch screen has nothing to do with the UI
7) No again, touch screens are not too expensive. Just see the current touch screen devices on the market today
It is more than possible that Apple would release a touch screen device. Hmm, Apple once even had one =), called Newton.

This is a play to get more of the millions and millions of people using iPhones and iPods and now iPads with Windoze to make the desktop switch. It's cool and should work well for that demographic if they can drop the price a bit. The big positive is that Apple has developed this technology to the point where their implementation on the desktop will be more intuitive and smooth operating than any of the Windoze solutions available.
I only wish if they did do something like this they wold incorporated pressure sensitivity as it would make it more useful for designers and open doors for other uses. I don't know whether Peratech has developed anything quite as sensitive as Wacom's technology, but they certainly seem to have developed something that could be useful for a lot of people. If QTC lives up to half of the hype the parent company should definitely be on Apple's acquisition radar.

WWDC 2003: PowerMac G5, iLife.
WWDC 2004: 23 and 30 inch cinema displays, iTunes 4.9
WWDC 2006: Mac Pro
WWDC 2008: iPhone 3G
WWDC 2009: iPhone 3GS, 13 inch MacBook Pro, and bumps to the 15/17 Pros.
WWDC 2010: iPhone 4
There is a lot of precedent for hardware and software announcements at WWDC, including a lot of stuff that doesn't directly impact developers. It's a big media event, and Apple saves on throwing two events close together in the summer by announcing things at WWDC.
Yes, its the hardware that keeps the developers in business. WWDC should not be exclusively about software and even Apple agrees judging from the list above.
Maybe they will feature the Macbook Air Revision this year ;)

The issue being that Halo proportionately seems to have a greatest number of jerks playing, as compared to say other games.
I think you're choosing to miss my point. The feeling amongst many is that Halo proportionately has the greatest collection pinheads collectively. Whether Halo had only 4 people, 3 of them would be @$$hats, while say Forza ( which does have some seriously anal players ) might have 1 out of 4 jerks. The fact that Halo is the biggest online portion of Live, is besides the point, law of averages aside.
The shame is that a game as great as Halo, somehow brings out the worse in such a large portion of it's players.
... And yes, the PA cartoon is dead on. :)
I also promise I'm done with this, I just wanted to make sure I was clear. :)

Anyone else notice that the low end iMac (1.83 Ghz) now has the 950 chipset for a graphics card?
This should have been clear from the EDU iMac which also sported the 950.

I wish I lived closer to Apple, to be able to get sneak previews like this, and to be able to report on Apple News. One day I will prevail!
BTW, I cant wait for monday! Does anyone know what time the Keynote will be in Grenwich Mean Time (London). Just so I can log on and keep up with all the action.
Thanks.

During the course of our interview, it came out that Apple had leaned on Maynor and Ellch pretty hard not to make this an issue about the Mac drivers -- mainly because Apple had not fixed the problem yet. Maynor acknowledged that he used a third-party wireless card in the demo so as not to draw attention to the flaw resident in Macbook drivers. But he also admitted that the same flaws were resident in the default Macbook wireless device drivers, and that those drivers were identically exploitable. And that is what I reported. end quote
