I guess the question is are there enough iPhones out and about to provide good traffic data?
I mean will there be enough iPhone 3GS/4/(whaever the new version is called), will the traffic information be sent in the background even if I never use the built in Apple application?
Oh man, you have no idea! On the navigation map while driving, you see icons of other WAZE users around you, there are hundreds all around the map. I had so many occasions where I would stop at a traffic light and see so many icons around me, look to the sides and see other WAZE users with the app running in their car. :)

No QuickTime Pro will download his stream.
The idea of this stream is that the part you have just played will be erased form your HD, and will be buffered what you are just about going to see (if there is enough bandwidth left... which usually is HUGE problem within the first couple of hours of the post).
Those who do get to download it, usually find some cool way to keep the cache all on HD without it being erased. Some clever software is used most of the time.
You'll find torrents of the whole Keynote somewhere tomorrow on the 'net... ;)

Not a big surprise here:confused:
I am more excited to see the numbers between ATT and Verizon when iPhone 5 launches this summer. I think there may be more VZW folks holding out for 5 that didn't jump ship on 4

A WEEK iPhone battery life? Even if you cripple the phone by disabling features, there's still no way it would last even close to a week unless it's in sleep mode the entire time
Actually I usually can go about 3-4 days with my iPhone 4 without recharging. More if I pushed it. Managing what you do with it really helps. I don't watch videos on it and don't do a lot of network traffic so that really extends the battery life. I found that videos, games, and GPS are the biggest battery drains followed by net activity.

I've been running my Late 2008 MacBook Pro with 8GB since March I'm using Kingston Memory KTA-MB1066K2/8G.
If only Apple would do about about an EFI update and enabling VT-D on the the older MacPro

But, at least they include a HDMI cable and don't forget to tell you that you can't get full HD without it, eh Sony.
Oops, that was a little console war-ish of me.

Server class cpu, ram, motherboard, ps, and case. That's why Mac Pros are so expensive.
It's not meant to be a consumer level box.
Hence that's why the layman will think its overpriced.

This pisses me off. It's a horrible example of decadence and wastefulness. Thing of all the energy and effort that went into making this device. From the mining of the metals to the labour to shipping it across the ocean. The truck that drove it to its final destination. If you've ever given any care to the environment, this should make you mad. Imagine explaining this to someone who has nothing. It went through a long journey. Did nothing. Now it's landfill. Sickening.

Will it be available in the iBooks store?
Yes, and it will only cost $1 more than the print version.
I don't like authorized biographies. At the best, they only tell one side of the story and aren't as insightful as the unauthorized biographies that will come out in a year or two later.
At their worst, authorized biographies are fairly tales. Almost as much reality as reality TV.

To be honest, I do miss the quad. Mine was silent and I loved the fx4500 quadro in it. It did hanbrake upthere with the best of them. That said though, I don't have room for lots of Boxen and the 2.3 dual pm I have ATM ( boxed up) won't be out for a while as I am way to buisy with work and stuff ATM.
But the quad is no comparison to the 2.8 octo I have now. And it plays a heap of games. The gtx285 is also much, much faster than the quadro.
I can't really imagine you selling your Mac pro and grabbing a quad. If you do I would recon you will be getting another Mac pro shortly after that.
As that's what I did....lol
I started with dual 1.8pm, then dual 2.0 pm then Mac pro (early 2006) sold all three and bought a quad pm. Then picked up a very cheap 2.3pm. And then last Christmas sold the Mac pro and the quad and bought the Mac pro 3,1. I've never looked back as this box hauls. And it's a lot cheaper on power than the quad was.
Don't get me wrong, I loved my quad, but it got kinda sour when blizzard refused to let me play their new releases on my more than capable quad ppc pm.
I am not a real fan of geekbench, as its a synthetic benchmark. All I know is my quad was a very, very nice piece of kit. And immense had any dramas with it. The only reason I updated wasn't because it was slow ( it sure as crap wasn't that) but only cos certain applications were no longer supported in ppc.
Yeah love the quad g5!

Having said that I ordered mine Tuesday and it still says a ship date of 26th April, that is 6 weeks. I hope they send it earlier as I would be a little pissed if someone ordered today and got it earlier than the 26th April.
I mis-counted 5 weeks.
And the order date just changed to 21st April that is still 4 weeks and 2 days from order date. Ironically though because of the weekend it is due to be delivered on the 26th, so 2 days earlier than before....lol

I would, but I have to go collect my check since each Jew gets a cut of the profits for the media and Hollywood that we own. You'd think that since we own the banks too they could just direct deposit it, but we're a bit old fashioned ;)

Some parts of Microsoft's products are proprietary so cannot be used by anyone else. Also people working for companies that have a majority of Microsoft based systems in use (i.e. nearly all of them) find it easier to interact with everyone else if they are using the same software. I for one am happy with Office 2011 - it enables me to work for most of my clients without having to use my Windows 7 bootcamp.
True, but other 'Office' applications are able to save as .rtf docs right from the outset. There is something more sinister here in my opinion - Microsoft perhaps threatening not to release office for Mac if iWork saves text files. I don't use Pages simply because the extra step of exporting to rtf is a pain when you send lots of email attachments etc etc.

I am just curious as to how the roadmap for future iteration of iPhone will go.
If iPhone 5 is late-September early-October, does it mean iPhone 6 will be the same time in 2012, or skip to Summer 2013?

all these rumors are so sick! why should apple release two ipads in one year? that does not make any sense at all. next ipad will probably be the same like the current anyway, they'll add more memory, a faster chip and a better camera and that's it. and maybe they'll also release a third color like silver or pink. but that's it!
i don't want to hear all those rumors anymore if they are so silly. i think the blogs should not pick up every stupid rumor and blow it out of proportion.
