Not in front of my computer right now, but somewhere in iTunes Preferences, either in "General" or "Devices," there is a setting for preventing automatic backups. That should allow you to skip the backup, which seems to be what is keeping your upgrade from completing. Ideally, of course, we should try to figure out what is hanging your backups, but unfortunately, I'm out of ideas about how to fix that.

Convenience is the key. Everyone carries their cell phone with them so it's way more convenient to pull it out and play a casual game than a separate portable game device.
I think it's going to kill devices like the DS as the games get better and the smart phone platforms more powerful. It's not going to happen tomorrow, but portable game systems days are numbered.
I absolutely agree, with the exception that portable game systems will be forgotten entirely. Theres a HUGE market for pre-cellphone owning kids who love their portable games. It's much more likely for a parent to buy their 7 year old a DS, than an iPod touch or iPhone...I certainly would want to limit their access to games alone.

I have been using for few years now and and just use the Universal Preset or Apple TV preset. And thats it. Dont adjust anything just choose your preset and save location.

There are no photos yet..but afterdawn.com has reported that Toshiba will release a5GB Bluetooth HDD (http://www.afterdawn.com/news/archive/3440.cfm) ideally for PDA's, but that dosen't that the iPod should be left out... because it sports the same drive from Toshiba!!!
Even thou it states that "Toshiba doesn't have currently plans to sell the drive outside Japan" doesn't mean that we can't have hope!!;)

Not to rain on your parade but there will never be a game that requires 3D for the 3DS. It will always be optional because not everyone can use it/see it or at the very least can play it for as long before they are fatigued. Game designers probably won't be too keen to limit their market like that for something that would work just as well as a 2D game.
That was kinda my point... I don't know how well the 3Ds will do and if it is successful it isn't going to be because of the 3D. For the 3D to really have much affect I think on making a game player successful, it would have to be part of the experience, not just an add on to make the game prettier. And I think I mentioned I don't think they can do that with 3D (and not cause not everyone can see it, but because I'm not sure what you would really *need* 3D in order to play a game. Unless it was stuff like look behind boxes but I am pretty sure the 3D implemented in the 3Ds isn't capable of doing stuff like that).
As far as iOS gaming and the virtual joystick kludge, I agree. It is like how in some very early console games/programs you had a full on mouse cursor that you controlled with the D-pad. How long did it take them to figure out that was a horrible idea? You have to design for the device, and not many developers are doing it (great examples of how not to do it are the various RPGs with maybe the exception of Battleheart but even that is a bit clunky). Personally, I hope someone ports a game like Aquaria or Ocarina of Time because I think touch based gaming is much better at music than console or keyboard & mouse because it can just give you a keyboard or some other simulation.
I don't know if I said *that* more than I don't think the ipad will make up for lack of buttons to have some advantage over consoles.
I have played joystick games on the iphone and I still enjoy them. Sure, they would be better on another console, but just my own selfish reasons i don't really want to be stuck with just angry bird type games on my iphone. But, so far, I haven't had to. I've found plenty of good rpgs (though honestly for turn based ones I don't think you need buttons to play them, in some ways touch screen is nicer. Instead of having to scroll through a list to pick who you want to fight or what action you want to take, you just tap it) and racing games. And even enjoy the Prince of Persia and Assassin's creed port (both use virtual sticks). The virtual controls are more clunky than a dpad (or even better, a joystick) but they don't make the game unfun to me :). So I personally would vote to still get games that use joysticks as well, even if they have to use a virtual joystick.
Though I suppose if you were to make a game kinda like the for the iphone, you could probably implement some way that you use the iphone's strengths instead as controls.

Actually, I have been looking for a new monitor and was really hoping that the ACDs would be updated. At the very least, their price is almost twice that of a similar display from practically everyone else. Granted, they have a nicer design, but a 6ms refresh time is pretty slow these days.
Hardly. The panel is a S-IPS LG.Philips LM230W02 (for the 23"). This is probably the very best panel you can buy anywhere for a 23/24". The displays you are talking about aren't similar displays at all - they are inferior PVA or TN types. Hence, the price. Faster response times (for gamers) don't appear in S-IPS panels - only in cheaper TN types.
A comparable display is the NEC LCD2490WUXi which you won't find for under about $1100. The ACD 23" is in fact for the quality of the display good value. The main problem with it is the lack of inputs and the 1 year-guarantee.
The only change that Apple could make to the 23" is to things like the inputs (which personally I would like to see) because there is no better panel. Of course they could change to a 24" but this is not a better panel. Just a slightly larger one.
One legit worry is if you buy the 23" now, and Apple changes to a 24" then buying a second panel will be a problem.

It is not Apple's decison. Do you think the content owner would allow this? I doubt it - they would want to charge again.
Anyway, think yourself lucky - the majority of the planet cannot get movies or series content from iTunes.
I'm not so sure about that . . . after all, Apple has replaced all the old 320x240 content with 640x480 content, right? And there's nothing stopping you from having two copies of any given video file, only a mechanism to prevent you from using those files on more than a limited number of devices. There would have to be explicit language saying that Apple couldn't sell an upgrade to a higher resolution, or at least language saying Apple couldn't allow free/discounted downloads of a work that the downloader had previously purchased.

I actually still put in my e-mail address from my old ISP when they don't actually have to e-mail me.
Look around for e-mail accounts though. I'd do a Google on that one if it were me.

im pretty sure u can buy like a kit apple sells to test your knowledge of apple products and duties that come with the job or something like that to see if u are able to handle the Position of GENIUS. But i'm sure they will ask you why you want the job, why do you think you deserve it, do you have good people skills etc. and to answer the p.s. personally i cant stand super fresh haircuts, and idk about the shaving.

I have a few versions of it somewhere, I know I have the 1984-2004 version. If I find anything else I'll let you know. :)
Great! If you have a clean version of the original, I would love to have a copy (via something like megaupload/rapidshare etc) please. I'd really appreciate it.

Lee, I'm sorry... but the definition of 'sensational' is not the same as 'anything Lee disagrees with'. Would you call the thread started today by rdowns called "Mike Huckabee... and American Dick" sensational? How about the one called "Wisconsin Public workers stand up to Republicans." I find that one pretty sensational. :rolleyes: Grow up.
May I also ask why you're not confident enough with your own views to answer the poll? Also, what exactly is 'innacurate' with my thread?
And yet I'm the guy you refuse to talk to?

Wrong way round - it's userland, therefore WILL be tethered. See explanation here:
http://bit.ly/gN060d
actually, there are untethered userland jailbreaks. Look at the jailbreakme.com exploit from 4.0 / 4.0.1 for the iPhone 4.

So that'll be Quicktime 8.0 then.
Great, but Leopard just got �20 more expensive for Quicktime Pro users. :mad: :(

Never used that printer, so I can't vouch for the solution there, but it looks like good suggestions.

I'm looking to get myself an iPhone. I'd be open to one without phone functionality. I really just want to use it as an iPod with a camera, mic and speakers. A phone would be a nice bonus though.
I will not pay extra to have it unlocked and it must be in decent condition.
You must ship to Canada and accept PayPal. I have a few references on here and good feedback on eBay.
Thanks. :)
PM me I'll give you mine for $320.

Well, I have a slightly used 16 GB iPhone, for sale.
I got it for my father right when the 16 GB version came out alongside a 16 GB for myself. However, my father quickly declared he preferred his old Blackberry even though he was given the iPhone, and I was paying the bill! ha-ha.
I then considered using a second iPhone myself as a business only line, but I have decided that is unnecessary and not very convenient, so here it is for sale. You know it's not super old cause the 16 GB hasn't been out very long.
I had put a slider case on it, so like the flat chrome around the front face isn't perfect anymore. There are marks on the flat chrome parts as said, but beveled chrome and and the front in general looks shiny and clean. The screen is perfect. No scratches or anything in the screen. We take pretty good care of stuff being Mac and in general Apple fanatics.
The back next to the Apple logo has a couple smallish marks/scratches (they are hard to see in the photographs bit easier to see in person), which was also from the slider case I believe. I'm returning the slider case cause of this, but it's nothing too dramatic. Still much better condition than most used phones I think you'll find and how many have 16 GB of storage? I love my 16 GB.
Just want to give the full heads up, since I'm pretty obsessed about things looking good. Some of the marks in the photos are just lint or fingerprints, but ask many for any specifics. I've tried to outline what I see above.
I have attached a couple photographs.
*** Oh yeah, the original box is included of course, and it even has the unused black cloth, the Apple stickers, *never used* earbuds, plastic wrapped dock, plastic wrapped power adapter, and USB cable. So the packaging will be like new (most of those items have never even left the iPhone box cause already had cables, dock, earbuds and power adapter).
I am selling it for $450, plus $10 ground shipping, for $460 total. At first it sounds like only $40 off, but remember all the sales tax you're saving, which is probably about another $40 depending where you are, so it is potentially $80 cheaper than a new one, and obviously this one isn't very old itself.
Oh, one more thing. It's always been official on the AT&T network. Never been unlocked. So you can just get a new AT&T sim card or whatever, put it in the phone, and activate with iTunes. Or you could unlock it or whatever, but on my end that has never been done. Its been official all the way.
So go ahead and private message me offers. Obviously paypal is how I'd like to do the transaction, and I can give my ebay user ID 100 percent after 80+ transactions, for feedback rating, or refer you to someone I've sold an iMac to on here.

well what is the best quality I can get from a rip? Ive got like 256kbps 128 320 its all over the place
Uncompressed is the best, but if you don't have the storage capacity, AAC is quite good with 192Kbit/s, although I prefer 256Kbit/s and 320Kbit/s.
