DLC looks cool...
I finally made it to the final level on my legendary run. I am still confounded by how much the difficulty level varies so much from battle to battle. Anyway almost done!

It would be cool if you could buy comics this way as well. Maybe when you buy a physical comic, it could give you a code to enter at the iTMS (iTunes Media Store) to download a CBR version of it.
Right now, you can download all sorts of comics on BitTorrent as CBR or PDF format, and Marvel (www.marvel.com) has a pretty cool online (Flash-based, I think) comic reader from their website.
I'd love to be able to pony up some amount of money and have, say, the entire run of X-Men at my disposal for reading. And controlling the DRM on a comic would be easier than that of music, or even text.

Honestly, if the iPad 3 has 3D anything then it will have jumped the shark. The only time Apple has done that in the Jobs II era is when it put polka dots and tie dye designs on the iMac. But that was also a time when Apple was far less in control of its destiny. I can't see Apple resorting to 3D gimmicks, at least at this stage of the iPad when there is so much to improve.

Overall I think the most important upgrades would be the graphics and the cpu...they need to move on and away from the C2D and keep up with the pack.

In other words, what we saw tonight was nowhere near the final form of the application.
This statement has me a bit puzzled. FCP is supposed to be out in around 2 months. Are they going to rush the rest into FCP in this amount of time, or get the basics in there, then drag onto multiple updates? Would be a shame to not have it fully ready for release. I'm a little skeptical if the rest will be ready by June. Nothing stinks worst than having a program that's touted a super program, to find out it wasn't ready for release. Just hope apple doesn't rush this one out the door. It looks to put the competition to shame if it can deliver.

I always hear people say, "I don't like the Beatles, but I like this song..."
What does this mean???:confused:
Is it me, or are they confused...
I am one of the folks who say that. I am not a fan of the band or group. It might mean I don't like what they might stand for, or their individual ideas so I don't buy every thing they do or did. It usually means that I don't like the sound or style of the bulk of their catalog. An example would be not liking a particular genre of music but finding one song I enjoy out of that genre. I don't like country music as a type but I have a few songs in my library that are country tunes. But I might put all that aside and enjoy one or two songs from an artist that I don't particularly like. I have had artists that I liked so much I bought everything they did only to later look back and say wha??? Why did I do that?

*WARNING* The following post was posted without me having read the previous 7 pages of posts.
I use to have an eReader. It was excellent for reading books in bed. Unfortunately, you couldn't read books in the bath, at the beach, in sunlight, or anywhere where you could drop it. Actually you could pretty much only read books in bed.
eBooks aren't the future, they are the past. There is a reason the craze didn't take off last time. You just can't beat a book.

If they put an iSight in the Cinema Displays and axe the stand alone iSight that would mean you would have to buy an ACD just to use the video stuff with the Powermac/Mac pro AND the mini.

Oh dang, these firmware updates make me nervous... so im going to wait and let others be the guinea pig.
No way I'm going to do this update. This will not benefit me in any way whatsoever. At most, it'll ignore any "true" problem and not shut down when necessary. I won't install this update for like 6 months to see if this happens to others. Why should I install it when I don't even have this RSS issue, right? It'll just create a safety hole in my system.
After applying the update, it seems like it's running cooler. I'm getting 53-54C now, when normally it's 58-59.
Ah yes, let these types of posts begin. ;)

I've amblyopia in my left eye which makes my eyes unable to focus on the same point in a distance, they're slightly off (the focal points), sufficiently so to cause me to not be able to see most of these types of screens in 3D. I do see in 3D, e.g. I saw Avatar in 3D, but even then, it's underwhelming and causes me to strain needlessly.
I am willing to bet there's a large segment of the population that is impervious to 3D screens. If they offer a 3D without a regular 2D screen, they would screw me out of buying an iPad, ever. I'm still warming up to getting one, but producing 3D or marking up the price because of 3D or building applications that are "3D" - would completely turn me off and away from ever getting an iPad or any "3D" apps on it.
Like the Nintendo 3DS, you can turn off the 3D. Still an impressive handheld game system nonetheless...

I heard something that the catalog will be release again soon, and since it will be available, hopefully, soon on iTunes...
Does this mean these versions will have a better audio quality, than the cds I bought almost twenty years ago???:confused:

Where did you get that chair. If you have the link please link it in here. I know many people would like one.
I got it from Ikea. Here is the link to the UK Ikea site:
http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/20103101
Not sure if it is available internationally but I can't see any reason why not.
It's a really nice chair and I especially like the excellent lumbar support and useful headrest (I'm 5ft10 so YMMV). The breathable backrest is also good to avoid a sweaty back if sitting for a while.
Edit: Just checked, the Orlando Ikea store has 15 of these chairs in stock at $199 each. :)

How do you know that you are going to get a new one and not a refurbished one. And what old macbooks are you talking about, they didnt release any new ones yet. Thanks for the help.
I am talking about the CD macbook. It is known that they put old/previous models on the refurb site. Ask anyone on here.
Why don't you just look at the 'refurb' section of the site? Someone also mentioned that just prior to the release of the CD MBP on the 24th they put the whole range of CD MBP on the refurb site when there was usually just a small selection.

those sites are all run by MS.
the screen? same res as the iPod, so it will look crappy as the pixels will be stretched to fit the screen.
Yep, that "comparison" seems very suspicious indeed... Just look at how they compare, in size, a 30GB Zune with a 60/80GB iPod! The 30GB iPod is that much thinner compared to its bigger sibling, let alone to the über-fat Zune...
And the screen resolution is cr*ap, for a screen with that size... I'm also figuring that since the display is probably a conventional horizontal display rotated in portrait mode, when you use the player, the colours each eye sees will be different, due to the vertical viewing angle, which is generally much smaller than the horizontal; and on the Zune, these will be reversed and will screw our stereoscopic vision, thus causing a lot of eyestrain... Just use a Sansa (which has the same display orientation) for more than five minutes and you'll know what I'm talking about :eek:

The reason the iPad's file size is so large (593MB) is because it has to install a camera on the top of the iPad, and if you go into the Settings> General> Bezel, you can now change it from Black to White (or vise versa) whenever you want.
This is an awesome update, hurry, download it.
P.S.
No onions.
Thanks for clearing that up. I had the Dremel in hand and was about ready to drill the hole for the camera - glad it's going to install it on top! That way I can revert to the previous version, right? Also, if I jailbreak my cheeseburger, will it get wifi like the fries, or is that just a myth?

This would be a good thing if ANY of those stores actually had any iPads for sale.... As it is now they are just adding another store chain for people to check inventory :D
Doesn't matter where Apple sells its products. Better to make your products available everywhere than in just one or two specific stores. Remember: Not every city has an Apple store and can be quite a distance to the closest.

What's illogical about it?
Why should we subsidize the defense industry, a multi-multi-billion dollar expense to our government, merely to maintain some jobs?
Please show me the evidence that demonstrates that is a positive investment for our country.
show me, show me? ... if you can not see the value for the economy in the people that work in and around the Military ... from Mom and Pop stores to direct suppliers to the Military? ... and your solution is ...
I'd suggest that those who's careers are based on maintaining our military can file for unemployment and search the want ads just like everybody else.
like I said ... good thing you are not part of the decision process. :cool:

Putting aside the fact that Flash is crap ...
Yes, flash has issues, but there are several sites that I want to use from the iPhone that require it. It would be good for the iPhone to support it.
Also, there are several enterprise development shops rolling out custom enterprise applications for mobile phones. They don't want to write custom applications for the iPhone, so using Flash/Flex would definitely be attractive.

This would be a most welcome addition! (well if they did it in the UK too..).
If they managed to make them so you didn't have to download the whole OS each time there was a tiny tiny update then even that would be more fun (whether it be wireless or via itunes as it is now).
It's just annoying having to wait a good hour on my ridiculously slow internet to download updates :(
