iPhone 4's screen is still great compare to other phones.
I can vouch for this. I've been using Android these last two years, and I was looking to upgrade the phone this summer. At this point, it's either stay where I am or get iPhone5 whenever it drops. I have looked at a LOT of phones, and even those Android devices that DO use qHD screens look like garbage next to a Retina screen.
People keep telling me, 'oh, there's no difference if you hold it farther from your face--your eyes can't tell'. Well, I don't have super vision or anything, but seriously, I CAN tell. that 330+ ppi makes a hell of a difference, and as of right now, even after months for multiple Android device manufacturers to get their act together, not a one of them has a screen that can rival it. They have bigger, sure, but they do not have better.
It's actually kinda frustrating, as Android 2.2.3 is finally a solid, excellent little OS that totally bests iOS4x in many ways. But it seems no one can actually create hardware that's worthy of it.
So, it's come down to whether someone will actually design a better device for Android on par with iPhone, or if Apple will actually tweak iOS 5 enough to fix all the things everyone knows is wrong with it.
I honestly don't know which is more likely, as they both seem pretty damned UNlikely.

I chose not to comment about the situation but to say....what a sad, screwed up world we live in. Take what you may out of that.
sad that old people dont want their children having sex when they are both old enough, or sad that those two are haveing sex?

I think it's funny all the comments about "is that enough?" I think this proves two things...
1. Most people don't quite understand just how much a million/billion/trillion of something is.
2. People think that this 12PB amount must have been decided upon arbitrarily, as if Apple didn't do a crapload of research to decide what a good starting amount would be.
Here's another good visual representation of trillion, in dollars:

Apple will do the deal so media companies won't start asking Apple to shell out some cash to them for each iPod sold...like Microsoft and the Zune

Wow just completed my first bigadv for an unbelievable 70,046 points. I can't even run fah all the time either, otherwise it would have been even higher (it causes a rubber banding effect in some games where they battle for cpu cycles).
Congratulations on your first bigadv WU! :cool:

My warranty is about to run out and I am considering applecare for the second year.
If the phone gets replaced under applecare is it used up or do you still get the rest of the time? I think it's the full two years no matter what handset right?
For about $70 it rather seems worth it with the potential bugs these phones can have.

I just downloaded a photo from ipadwallgallery.com using my iPad2. I wanted to use it as my wallpaper. So I give up; where did it download to? I went to photos and it isn't there. Sorry for what is probably a simple question but I am stumped.
Thanks

He also demoed the Snow Leopard user features, didn't he? Or did he leave Apple between Snow Leopard and Lion? :confused:

The screen may not change on the next revision. So there may be no need to change production.

I'm using a mid 2010 mac mini, samsung miniDV hooked up to firewire 800. (imovie 11) It doesn't skip on the tape, but when I play it back in imovie, it skips in the same place each time. no matter how many times i re-import it, it skips in the same place. Is there any way to stop this?
thanks.
thanks.

I got some money from my parents.
In addition to money (about $50), I got a new wallet, some new games for my iPhone and a generic brand racing wheel for my PS3 to use with the GT5 game I bought last month.

I think all of the talking points have already been fleshed out. Bottom line is that Mac's simply are not an enterprise solution.
* Can you integrate them into an enterprise network?
Sure. I can also plug my home router into the network. I'm sure it'd work fine.
* Can the be your standard?
Not unless you're a small corp that doesn't use any real business applications. Then again, I wouldn't consider that to be 'Enterprise IT'.
* Group policy is only needed because Windows machines are insecure.
Can you honestly believe this if you actually have even the slightest amount of experience in an enterprise IT environment? That's the most ignorant thing I've read all day.
* Applications are all going to be web-centric.
Sure, that's the current direction, and from an IT perspective, makes the most sense. That's not a selling point for Macs though, that's a selling point for thin clients. If you want to talk TCO and use web-based applications as the justification, then you have to compare a Mac to a thin client..... and well, the results are obvious.

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.

Att on facebook said you must on the Att nation 450 &900 or the family 700 or higher to qualify and it's not cost additional for the service.
I'm on the family 550, and it is cheaper to just keep it that way. We don't use up all of our minutes usually.
Of course I may start using more minutes if any iPhone friends defect to Verizon.
