So I'd have to have an external CD drive to play all my games, install my software, go through my backups and import my new music into iTunes?
Personally, I seldom use my CD-DVD drive, so, a portable USB drive to keep in my backpack would be fine. What I would really like is two drive bays, one for SSD and one for a high-capacity HDD.

3D audio cues? How would you get anything above 1D audio cues?
Stereo speakers. Most of use can tell if a sound is in front of us or behind or above or below and we only have two ears. You can make 3D recording with ony two channles but the playback geometry has to be near perfect. Synthetic sound cues are not recordings and it need not be perfect to work. All it would have to convey is any one of six basic directions and the users will all be trained to listen for it carfully and wiling to set up the speakers in exact locations. It might be helpfull to someone who is blind. I know some one who is and he can sometimes tell who enters a room and from where before the person speaks. If this is the target user then it need not be perfect or even natural sounding

if the true video ipod is really coming will be before Thanksgiving, not after. They can't miss the biggest shopping weekend of the year.
So, is either before Thanksging or at MWSF or later. I hope it is the same of they will launch the Zune.

The real question is when will the new iMac's come out?
+1
I'm itching to update my iMac now. I'm tempted to wait until they start shipping with Lion though.
As far as iPad 3 rumors go, I really never bought into them. I imagine that if there is ~any~ truth at all to a fall update, it might be an extension to the current line, like a 128GB model in time for the holidays. (although, given Apple's rumored cloud strategy, we may not see 128GB iPad's for a while...)

Sales are determined by model number. Inventory control is calculated by part number.
Keep trying, though. I'm quite amused.
Actually, if you want to peruse "Press Releases" and cite them as definitive, that's your choice. It just reeks of amateurism and would get you laughed out of any meeting that I attend.

8 gauge is just a bit bigger than pencil size this is the best pic i have so far:
but you can see my eyebrow and labret too!
I was told on my upsizing of nip ring, that I was going to an 8 gauge. Now this is now where near "pencil size" (at least for the #2 pencils I have used). Unacurate measurement says the an 8 Gauge is about 1/8" across. A pencil I compared to would indicate between a 4 and 6 gauge.
BTW, every "hot" looking photo. :)
Wondering just how many you can't show here on MR? :D

Nokia is only enforcing the legal right to attempt to protect what they consider is misuse of their IP. Let them.
Why does everyone get their knickers in a bunch about this? If they have a case it'll be upheld, if they don't then the court will throw it out. Big deal. Blame litigation happy America if you have to.
EDIT: Oh and to people saying why has it taken so long to bring an action - these corporate matters can take a while to rumble through. Yes, commercial pressures do have an impact on when cases are brought - trust me, it happens an awful lot!
Good post.

The real question is, how does apple expect to sell the new Mac Pro when so many of the apps that PROs use are not universal and will be slower than they are on current power macs. Why not just get a refurb to tide you over?
I know they have to release these I'm just saying that it's going to be a hard marketing sell for a lot of people.

I wish somebody would take a photo of the dock connector and the headphone jack to see if those are white as well (they should be).
If it's anything like Apple's other white products, every part will have a different shade of white after a while.
I've seen iPhone 4 white dock and headphone flexes for sale on the parts sites, so almost certainly, yeah.

My brother just called and said they were getting a Kinect system for their Christmas. He said their daughter just bought one and had them over to look at it, and the mom (now 62?) was sold on the spot. I have not been "into" gaming for quite a few years but may have to go try it out!

1- Since ZFS won't be arriving, a filesystem which isn't comprised of duct-tape and superglue. This won't happen of course.
2- Resolution independence. Has been Coming Real Soon, it's ALMOST READY, for like 150 years now. This won't happen either, maybe by 10.9 or so.
3- Mail should swallow a reasonable subset of the InDev MailTags and Mail ActOn features, and provide a reasonable plug-in API, so that all the things it can't do, could be made possible by 3rd parties without crawling through the minefield (GPGMail, and, oh yeah, the InDev stuff, which lately seems to have stood still in this neverending attempt to just bring back some stability. Meh).
4- GCD and OpenCL? They should actually, ya know, get utilized once in a while. It'd be awesome to use a 12-core Mac Pro for something other than Maya, compiling, and video games, and have it feel like a 12-core instead of an iMac.
5- iTunes? Please scrape it out of the tarpit, and port it to Cocoa, instead of being this weird C++ app, which uses almost no native frameworks, crawls in slow-motion, never sees more than 1 core (that I'm aware of, perhaps it does something magical when ripping those old-school CD's I've heard legends about), and in general.. sucks hard, and is totally wedged into the middle of all the iCrap which makes it very difficult to just ignore and kick to the curb.
5.5- iTunes? It's really not.. is it. How about breaking apart all those features and either integrating 'em into the OS, or into a collection of programs which aren't this giant, slow, bloated mess, using a codebase from 900 years ago.
6- When I smack the side of my Mac Pro, I'd like for it to get up and dance and spin the screen around in a pretty swirl of colors and patterns. I should be able to touch, pinch, swipe, feel up, and lick, the interface. Also, if at all possible, in addition to speech, there should be a universal option for the computer to sing all text output and input to me.
Out of the above features, only #6 has a reasonable chance of materializing in my humble opinion.

There's a very small part of me that kind of has to hand it to France for having the nerve to place this ban. It is a terribly misogynistic and divisive garment and I disagree with it completely. I think France merely outlawed it with the wrong reasons in mind... at least on paper. It should be to do with banning the hiding of identity rather than it being specifically a burka and niqab.
I live in a very diverse neighbourhood and I frequently see women in various head scarves. The burka and niqab seem quite antisocial and I find it hypocritical that totally covering one's face like that is accepted but if I walked into these same places with a motorcycle helmet, a balaclava, a mask, etc. I'd be asked to take it off, leave or some other such demonstration of being unwelcome/distrusted. If I said it was part of my religion, would it be accepted?
I find many Islamic beliefs particularly frustrating because many of the beliefs and or believers are SO inflexible but often expect total flexibility for themselves. I'm fed up with religious beliefs being unchallenged and so quickly accepted simply for being religious. Now in general letting people believe what they want is great policy but I think it can go too far. E.g., cases of women wanting to wear burkas and niqabs in identification photos. Come on! :-/ If I go to Dubai on holiday and bring a codeine painkiller that you can buy over the counter here, I could go to jail (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7234786.stm). Or if my husband gives me a little kiss in public, jail (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8602449.stm). Yet, hey, come to the UK and do whatever the hell you please and even try to change our laws or litigate (http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/news/article-23420128-hairdresser-sued-for-refusing-to-hire-muslim-woman-in-a-headscarf.do) if you don't get your way. On one hand the UK's openness is wonderful but the other hand is being walked all over.
Someone somewhere has to draw a line, but carefully. I don't want to see beliefs outlawed but I am not so against certain practices being outlawed. There are a lot of really horrible religious practices taking place right under our noses and I'm not accepting it simply because it's someone's cherished religious belief.
Read up on "African witch children" for some really disturbing material, just so I'm not accused of picking solely on Muslims. I'll pretty much pick on any religion you put in front of me.
I don't know how or when it will happen but I long for a day when people themselves outgrow religion. Not governments banning it, but people learning their way past it. I know this idea may be upsetting to some but it will happen eventually and the stubborn clingers on will only look crazy. Sorry to say that many already do.

Then will you address the thousands that wanted the EV1 at that time?
Perhaps it was people with money, or say, people with the future in mind.
And not profits based on fossil fuels, and planned obsolescence.

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.
