According to Yahoo they've been upgraded in regards to CPU (obviously), RAM and HD... so pretty much the same as the MBP's two weeks ago.

Spent about an hour on the phone getting through to Apple. I too was having a problem with getting the web site to accept my batteries serial number. I was told that they were aware of the problem and to try later. I waited about two hours and tried again. This time the serial number went through fine. I suspect that matter is simply one of server overload.
There is no need to submit a bogus SN to get a replacement of a battery that is clearly within range. The only reason (if indeed it is a reason) to submit a bogus SN is one of greed.

Interesting... I've been assuming the video store has been holding up the video iPod, but that doesn't appear to be the case...

I doubt that. I think it's more about widespread anti-intellectualism among blacks, i.e. a cultural thing. This is regardless of social class, btw. More likely than not, a black guy is seen (by his own) as a traitor/sellout if dating white girls, and a phaggot if reading books.
It has nothing to do with any characteristics inherent to Africans. It has everything to do with socioeconomic status, prejudice and politics. The culture of violence in urban, poor communities is only connected with race in that it is a symptom of prejudice.
In the US there are far more white people with guns than blacks, and far more "anti-intellecutal" whites (c.f. the Tea Party) than blacks, and far more poor, uneducated white people committing crime than blacks. If you place white people (or any ethnicity for that matter) in the same sociopolitical/socioeconomic environment, the same crime problems result. Many rural areas in the American south or Appalachia that are almost exclusively white are every bit as poor, uneducated and crime-ridden as any urban black ghetto.

This is interesting. Quite a long way from the days of 32 MB Mp3 players.
Apple with their success I am sure has long term visions for the iPod as a platform beyond music. In a way it's a new computer platform for them.
They have already pushed iPods into education at the university level (I never got the utility in that), but with eBook functionality the plot thickens. Students could buy all their textbooks from iTunes. In fact, there already are specific iTunes stores for colleges (the one I am familiar with is Stanford). And of course, some iTunes albums already come with PDFs. This could herald true album art along with the entire booklet stored on the iPod.
iPods are ubiquitous. But books are even more ubiquitous. But what could be even more ubiquitous than a book? An iPod that is both and iPod and a book!
They were smart to give it such a generic name (iPod) with as broad of a platform as it is becoming.

On the last page of Part 12 I posted a setup that is located in my home office (mainly used by my wife). Different room.
I decided to update my own office (kind of) with a brand spanking new iMac which is replacing my late 2009 Macbook Pro.
Old Specs Macbook Pro 17":
2.8 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
4GB RAM
500GB + 80GB SSD ( took it out before selling)
Nvidia 9400M + 9600M
New Specs iMac:
2.93Ghz i7
8GB RAM
1TB Hard Drive + (still want my 80GB SSD inside this baby, but difficult to do so!)
ATI Radeon HD 5750 1GB
So far, so good.
The speakers are also still there, but these are not shown in the picture.
This is an old/new comparison.
Mind the quality, but my iPhone 4 broke (will be replaced) on me so I used an old iPhone first generation.
I kept the iPad 64Gb Wifi.
Feedback is always welcome. :D
And here I thought windows were only for looking out of :rolleyes:
I like your idea more.

Looks like the Sony Ericsson K608i, Ive been dying to get my hands on one for awhile now, but tech changes and that lust faded. I have a p900 and I am enthraled with the phone OS. Motorola can eat it here.:p
Looks like it might say "Sony Ericsson" on it.

Toys R Us...Apple is SERIOUS about positioning the iPad for gaming and entertainment...maybe even education. I can see an iPad waterproof enclosure in the near future.
Do you know a lot of people that do their gaming and book learnin' in swimming pools?

My favorite part:
Microsoft has announced its new iPod competitor, Zune. It says that this device is all about building communities. Are you worried?
In a word, no. I've seen the demonstrations on the Internet about how you can find another person using a Zune and give them a song they can play three times. It takes forever. By the time you've gone through all that, the girl's got up and left! You're much better off to take one of your earbuds out and put it in her ear. Then you're connected with about two feet of headphone cable.

I don't recall massive outcry from the devs on those other platforms. Why do you think that is?
On reason might be because when was the last time a gaming console had 100K games for it?? I don't think any of them have. Could be wrong thou.
You have far more developers for the iPhone platform then you do for the games thus we hear about it more. I would also speculate that now that we live in an age of instant communication, we don't have to wait it to make the paper or trade magazine we are hearing about it much sooner and more often.

it seems that there is no longer an option for the "matte" screen, only the glossy one.
That option NEVER existed for MacBooks, only for MacBook Pros.

They should use the new LOVE mix of Tomorrow Never Knows with Within You Without You. The drumming is so cool and it would attract so much attention since although so many have heard the two separate songs, hearing the Mashup of the two is quite stunning and very modern. You should check it out if you have not yet. Amazing sound. Especially in 5.1
I'll totally check that out - but is it something you can download on iTunes?
It'd be a little weird to use a song in an iTunes commercial that can't be purchased there!

With this 3D facetracking display being rumored, the first thing I thought of was the future of iPad gaming.
Imagine playing a game, where instead of moving the right analog to change the camera angle, you just move your head to look around the corner.
(come on everybodys tried it with there tv at least once :P)
But then I came upon the fact that the placing of the cam on the ipad would pretty much prevent landscape mode since your thumb would be in the way.
Then of course, theres the new smart cover or any docking system, you could prop it up in landscape mode and use some sort of bluetooth controller or maybe an iPhone as a controller to your iPad.
I would be so impressed.

Before getting slapped... I guess if youre a billionaire you can shove earbuds into a strangers ear, but here in Real World USA the results would not be pretty. Do that with your girlfriend, I dont think ANYONE would want a stranger theyve known for 1 minute coming up to them and putting crap into their ear.

Except I would have to pay for the parts and the R&D...
Well, you are already paying for color-screen, video-playback, photo-playback etc. etc. etc.. They seem to be adding features constantly, yet the price does not go up (more or less).
If you wanted a barebones iPod, you would always have the Shuffle

The publishing rights are what was being discussed and it's every song in the Beatles catalog. There are other songs by the Beatles and the individual artists which are not part of the catalog being discussed. I wasn't referring to those, or the mechanical rights.
People seemed to think that Sony/ATV controlled (and profited from) the Beatles music available on iTunes so I was just making it clear. :)
