yet again this forum is full of poeple moaning about this....what the hell do you want??
im more than sure your going to get another special event when Leopard launches and it will have iWork and iLilfe launched at the same time as it now seems these are integrating more than before....
Why have everything in the one day, when we now get the chance to sit back, take in what we just say and look forward to something else very soon..
get a grip:rolleyes:

.mac is in need of a major upgrade
This is a good start
very true. still, if gmail cleaned up the interface, added WebDAV support, made a nice homepage to access all google services, i'd totally stop thinking about the possibility of .mac.

In the U.S., Google does own the map data (http://www.gpsreview.net/google-drops-tele-atlas/). For further confirmation, note that it says "Map data �2011 Google" in the footer when viewing U.S. maps, and says nothing whatsoever about TeleAtlas or Navteq (this is not the case for some other countries). They made this change back around October around the same time that the very first Google Maps Navigation app for Android was released.
Also, driving around (http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-9809094-1.html?tag=mncol;title) to collect map data is absurd?
I agree with you that the current iOS notifications system is terrible. But you do know you can keep Wi-Fi on and just turn off "Ask to Join Networks", right?
Yes, but wouldn't you get one of those awful pop-ups each time you detected a new network?

I logged in & my current Family Talk 700 plan does not have the +, when I click change plan, no 700 minute plan shows as an option because I already have the 700 minute plan, & when I click on A-List it says I have no A-List. The FAQ for the A-List still says 1400 is the minimum for the Family plan. I'll keep an eye out, though, because it is certainly possible that if they made this change today, they haven't yet updated the site.

I think google has a lock on the map thing. I can't see apple employees driving around remapping the world to get their own data base
Apple already has its own database. It dropped Google's location services with release of iOS 4.

Because it's not news. Plus it's a stupid issue in the first place. Every damn carrier in the world tracks your movement FAR more than Apple has. Google's Android tracks you even more than iOS does. This has been happening for well over a decade. Nobody cares, and only a few people have their tin-foil hats on tight enough to care.
Absolutely. I had a text the other week from my carrier (O2 UK) suggesting I go to a shop 10 minutes from where I live to buy a product. They know my rough location from which cell towers my phone connects to and they're happy to use that info for advertising purposes. Carrier's link location information to your account and personal info, Apple aren't doing that.

No need. Apple would just license the map data from either Navteq or Tele Atlas. The map data that Google uses at present is TeleAtlas (Especially for Europe).

But it was treason. There is a good reason that was a capital offense. The scale of death and misery that can be dealt through effective treason is far greater than than even a spray of bullets. If you support capital punishment, you should be in favor of hanging a traitor.
Has he been officially charged with treason? I ask because I haven't seen the charge sheet, provided that it has been published.
Going off the constitutional definition of treason (Article 3, section 3 for those interested), I think the state is going to have a hard time making it stick. PFC Manning didn't make war on the US, nor did he turn the documents, which I'll grant could be construed as aiding, over to an enemy power. Unless, of course, we decided to declare war on Australia while I was napping.
A very long prison term spent making furniture seems more appropriate in this case.
For that matter, why not Madoff? The effects of his mischief harmed far more people than even Manning. Why should he be spared the chair?
Madoff didn't kill anyone, and therein lies the difference. The main purpose of the death penalty is not punishment, but a means for the state to assert that only the state shall have the authority to take a life.

... and then some socks, undershirts, cologne, candy, etc... Also got some cool Star Wars stuff, a great Saddleback wallet, and about $250 of unique giftcards/cash. Also bought Donkey Kong Country Returns a couple days ago at a GREAT bargain... but might return it since I probably won't get to it in a while.
All in all, a fantastic Christmas. It's been a very hard year for me and my family; but you certainly wouldn't be able to tell today. I'm very, very grateful for my wonderful and loving family, and am very glad that I could see all my family over the last couple days.

How hard is it to uncheck these two boxes?
http://img713.imageshack.us/img713/6509/onek.png
And other publications, like The Economist, already come with the equivalent boxes unchecked by default.
In general: you sometimes don't get that option in a very straight forward way - and they still might sell your address (maybe not FT, but others)
So if you opt out: WHY do they still need your full name, address, email, .... etc information. If I tell them I don't want any of their advertisement or from their partners than I don't. I can see that they ask for the zip code or similar information to see in which areas they do good or not - but they should not get my full address, email or phone number.

The real measurement of how well the CDMA phone will do is when apple releases the iPhone 5. That way people can measure the performance when both carriers are starting off at the same time.
If the iPhone 5 Rumors are true, the iPhone 5 will still have CDMA access for the Verizon version and all of its crippled features: slow network, no data/voice multitasking, limited conference call abilities.

The problem with that is that without a real HDMI connector HD-DVD or Blue-Ray commercial disks will downsample the video due to the DRM restrictions. You have to have an actual HDMI connector on both ends and they have to support HDCP to get a fully digital, full resolution image on any monitor/HDTV.

HDMI (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMI) is a video/audio output standard that combines DVI video and optical out audio.
Sound familiar?
Yes, the MacBook Pro has both DVI out and optical audio out ports. Use a DVI to HDMI cable and a optical audio cable, and there is no need to have a dedicated HDMI output. In fact, as the MacBook Pro has a dual-link DVI port, it has the ability to power more than 1080p. Combine this with the included Apple Remote for Front Row, and you have yourself a (somewhat expensive) media center (with an unnecessary screen?;) ).

No, again, Apple can't stop them from selling the iPad. But it does mean that the iPads TJ Maxx is getting aren't being acquired directly from Apple. It means that they are buying them from a 3rd party. All Apple COULD do is terminate the 3rd party's Apple account (meaning that the 3rd party can no longer purchase directly from Apple) if they want to (if it was a large enough sale to TJ Maxx...80 iPads probably won't matter to Apple). An "Apple approved" retailer is one that has been authorized by Apple to buy Apple products directly from Apple, and thereby get all of the advertising perks, merchandising, etc from Apple.
Thanks for clearing that up.

Ehh... The Atari Flashback 2 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FAtari-Flashback-2-Plug-Play%2Fdp%2FB00093DHIK&tag=cavesofnarshe-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=9325) is probably a better solution, especially for those of us who still have standard definition TVs. It comes with about 20 games built in and uses real, miniaturized Atari hardware to the point where you can even modify it to accept old cartridges. (http://www.atarimuseum.com/fb2hacks/) The PCB even has a little space on it that shows where to put the reader.
If I buy the game pack, can I legally burn ROMs for my 2600?
That is a good question. I haven't thought this through as much as the other way around. If you don't have to circumvent any digital restrictions management to place you in violation of the D.M.C.A, I know people can legally create one personal archival copy from any copies of software programs they legally own. (http://www.copyright.gov/help/faq/faq-digital.html) The outcome of several carious cases such as Sony vs. Connectix (http://digital-law-online.info/cases/53PQ2D1705.htm) show that it is quite possible to juxtapose a legally entitled copy onto another platform. It is for these reasons that I believe emulation of Atari 2600 games on a modern P.C. would be legal, if there was only a cartridge reader to take advantage of First Sale Doctrine.
There are too many variables for me to be absolutely certain about the other way around though, since I'm not aware of many precedents going in that direction. There are questions to be raised as to whether you can legally unbundle the ROM files from the App in question though. Only the copyright holder has the right to create a derivative work out of their software so if they're merely considered portions of the Atari's Greatest Hits, you might be out of luck since I doubt your Atari can read iO.S. Apps.
However it could theoretically be considered the same if it's argued that the ROM files constitute computer programs in and of themselves, entitling you to archive them individually. Pendent on how the App works it may also be argued that a .app file on your computer is merely a directory as is any folder or mounted disc volume allowing you to unbundle them and drop the unnecessary bagage, say if you have raw access to a subdirectory of raw ROMfiles. As mentioned above though, if DRM effectively prevents this access or if the ROMfiles are a directly stored as part of the iOS App's executable I doubt much could be done. There might be other unexpected avenues of finding fair use in this case, like how the Betamax Case assumes there was an invitation to use the content in a certain way but I'm hesitant to weigh in on that without prior precedent just due to how hazily Fair Use is applied within the context of the law.
I'm not sure if I can get back to you in a timely manner if ever but now you've piqued my curiosity so it's possible I'll be looking into this in the future...

How about getting two notifications. Try telling me what the first one was? That's right, you will have no clue. Try using Android or WebOS for about 10 minutes and you will realize how obtrusive and useless notifications are in iOS.
I check the home screen.
