    I don’t know if Apple systems take takes this into account for stock distribution, but LS would be one of the last places I’d expect to find an AT&T;/GSM based iPad, given the US Headquarters for AT&T; Mobility 1500 feet from the mall.

    There are other stores, I like the one in North Point. Not too big and not the snobbery found at LS, IMHO. However, if you don’t have a car, I guess its kind of moot.

    So Walmart is full of obese hillbillies?

    I bought my iPad 2 at Walmart: 7 folks in line, 15 iPad 2's. Everyone was very nice. Im a 24yr old 6'2'', 190lb Systems engineer(with all my teeth)...and I shop there all the time. Dont hate...

    Apple needs to get over their trip on Adobe and do what's best for their customers! As somebody who absolutely loves Apple and their products...I find some of their decisions very strange and frustrating.

    Considering that a 160GB iPod Classic existed in it's really been more like 4 years since Apple has made meaningful progress with this line.

    Perhaps if a Classic were to be produced with capacity superior to all its predecessors, it might motivate people to upgrade.

    I'd be fine with waiting till fall to upgrade my 3GS if it meant LTE. Yes, I know the tech is nascent but the timing would seriously suck for entering a 2 year contract on a phone without it. That's the main problem. I don't want to have to wait till 2013 or upgrade after just one year (and there's no guarantee either carrier would allow it).

    I think you're also forgetting that the current version of OSX is included with every Mac.

    I agree but it's still not a "retail" version of OS X...

    Err... seems like a broad estimate like "2-3 weeks" is a rough idea. It's also not a long time. If people would just order and get on with their life there would be no need to hunt and peck and moan.


    Agreed. Recipe for sucess:

    Click.
    Enter credit card information.
    Get on with life.
    Sign for package when it arrives in about three weeks.
    Enjoy your new device.

    The delays were actually a good thing for me. Gave me time to "cool off" and realize that my iPad 1 is working just fine for me, and I can get along without upgrading to this generation.

    Source you are absolutely pathetic yourself. Mac users, like myself, have to defend our machines. You idiots who use pc's just dont get it. You bash macs evey chance you get and i just wonder how many have actually used one for an extended period of time. You cant honeslty tell me that the very first time you used a pc you were able to figure everything out. I cant tell if it was your first machines but i will tell you this. People who use macs for the first time generally have an easier time than pc users do.

    Now think that over and realise. it is a personal preference. Not a defining factor of who a person is.

    PS. Stop bashing macs!!!!!! (bast*rd)

    It's not like there's a ton of USB 3 peripherals on the market yet. I could see Apple waiting till the next update on this one.

    To call USB 2 "outdated" is kind of ridiculous. A few people have put it on a few computers and there are some peripherals out there. 98% of USB peripherals are still USB 2. Hardly outdated.

    The sort of money you put down on a Mac you shouldn't expect anything less than USB 3.0 from here on out. Core 2 Duo in 2010 leaves a lot to be desired.

    This is fantastic, fantastic news! It is so so so cool, and its really made my day. I have been waiting for the imac update and glad that it came around this time. I have been waiting since March and it has been agonising.

    Congratulations for those who have been waiting for one. The time has come. Im sure all apple revisions will come in due course,perhaps in time for leopard when it comes out.

    Bring on the ipods next week.

    Macrumours have been spot on!

    woke up hung over at 4am to see the news on here, get back up in time to get up to run over to the local t
    oys r us in Rockville, MD and when i get to Rockville Pike, they have a marathon that partially closes the road, costs me several minutes until can get on the Pike, i get to the toys r us, they just sold the last of their 5 to the guys who got there about a minute before

    undeterred and since can't cross the pike anyways due to the run, go to Montgomery Mall just to see what is up at the Apple Store, decent line, they gave out the tickets, got the 16GB Black iPad

    leave, on the road i find my rear right wheel well is smoking heavily, i wonder wtf don't panic, let the wind put the fire out, brake pad melted in the process

    all for an iPad that isn't even mine, i went to get it for my mother who was too tired to rush out on a whim, i still don't have the cash yet to afford my own

    c'est la vie

    So you're saying it is race, but not because of racism, but because of genetics? If it's genetics then how does it explain the successful blacks like your president among countless others?

    Aw yes, our president, Mr Obama.

    People tend to forget he is not full black, he is not black black, the man had a white mother, and had white grandparents who helped him excel in his studies. His African father left him when he was 2 years old and never came back. Everything he learned came from his white family, he was raised white, therefore him being successful and becoming president

    If he would've had a black mother then the outcome would've been quite different, I can reassure you

    I don't want to be viewed as a racist but rather a realist who takes factors into account, it's the sad truth

    I am a Transplant Physician at a University Hospital. I, and several others at my Medical Center use the iPad to access our Electronic Medical Record at the patients bedside, take notes and access reference material.

    The most recent issue of the Mayo Alumni Newsletter focussed on that institution's implementation of mobile technology (specifically iPhones & iPads) in delivering more efficient patient care.

    Thanks for the reply. I think this is great. I would love to do the same, but from my experience it seems that academic centers are extremely slow to adopt new technology. There is just too much red tape when it comes to hipaa.

    If I could replace my iPod classic with a 120GB iPod Touch I would do it in a heartbeat. To me the only think the classic has on the touch is storage size. In every other way the Touch is much better.

    Not everyone likes the touchscreens. I would buy a 200GB classic tomorrow. Not everyone wants iOS and apps and games and all that crap on an MP4 player. i know i don't. the iPod touch should go. they already have an iPhone, i want to listen to music with the occasional video on the bus. and with physical buttons i can change the song with the thing in my pocket. I like the UI and the clickwheel. call me old if you like but im 17.

    In Brazil any import has about 80% in taxes. That is the way to industrialize the country and make people and companies build the products "in house".

    Building the iPad there would be a very good move since for the huge population and cheap professional labor.

    Maybe I just haven't read the correct information... but how is YouTube supported as an app on the iPhone without Flash? Does it download the files and use Quicktime (or something of the such) to play the downloaded .flv? Couldn't Apple work to apply this same concept to Flash as a whole online?

    Again, I have done zero research on this.

    Rubbish. There is a Jupiter sized gap in Apples product "matrix". They have no desktop for frig sake!
    Where else would you sit your iMac?

    Dude, this software is simply INCREDIBLE!!! It is worth so much more than $999.00 it is not even funny! If they sell each separate for $299 or $999 for the whole suite then that is an awesome deal with more options for individual purchase than before. I CAN'T WAIT to see the rest of the suite especially the new Motion with Shake baked in :) I was a bit nervous that the other apps were dead so this is GREAT news!

    I also think this is the end of Final Cut Express. It makes perfect sense. iMovie = Free, Final Cut Pro X = $299, or if you are a pro you will get the whole suite for the same $999 price as before. Simple and better deals all around for everyone!
    Agreed, at this price point, I can't see that there would be any market for FCE.

    I would rather Apple do iPhone5 right then be pressured to release it at the typical release cycle.

    Give me 4" screen, NFC, dual core A9 and a gig of ram. LTE is not a huge deal since it will probably not be deployed widespread.

    I then have a macbook beside my bed, but don't have any pictures of that.
    Wow nice! That's a slick screen clock you have. What's it called?

    I sure hope this is going to happen. I convinced my friend to buy a macbook and he just puchased one today. I have been trying to get him to hold off until the C2Ds were released. But, he des
    perately needs it for work since he is branching away from his current company. He needs one now. So, I hope he receives a C2D instead as a surprise.

    What a clever title for the thread!

    I hope it's not tomorrow, whatever day you read my lines on.



    I am stuck with a 13" MBP and a 15" 2.53 GHz unibody (first one, with the Express Card slot and faulty graphics card). I really, really want a 13-15" anti-glare screen and some serious battery. My current '7 hours' battery lasts less than three.


    And no more fan noise or high-pitched CPU-whine, please!
