He isn't selling keys.
He is selling locks.
And I'm not buying.
it's little more than a drop in the bucket.
And as we all know, drops are what it takes to fill the bucket. I'd think sales from iTMS are far from insignificant for Apple. iPod wouldnt be were it is now without the Music Store (and vice versa). I'm not gonna pretend to know, but thats just my thoughts.

I don't know about "often," but you never know until you test the market. The only thing that could potentially drive up the value to real interesting numbers is if it were completely new, as in never unpacked or used, utterly virginal. "Proof," as it were.

Every time I read these threads I'm reminded why I don't have an iphone. Yeah, I have many other Apple devices, including a 3G iPad, but no iphone. I refuse to be a slave to the man. I wish subsidized devices didn't exist in this country. It reduces competition by locking people into contracts and ultimately holds technology back. Yeah, more people can own the "coolest" phone, but IMHO the ends don't justify the means.
This has been very frustrating for me too. I am disgusted that neither t-mobile or at&t have a pay as you go with data plan like the one for the ipad 3g. I would get an old 3gs or something and use it like that. I don't really make many calls so data is what I would use for email, etc.
This is possible is every freaking country in the world except in the US. I can't believe people tolerate this... it's a carrier dictatorship by any standards. I refuse to pay 60$us for a monthly bill when all I want is 25$us/2gig plus minutes I buy.

I saw 1 go for 12k! Crazy!
I saw that one too, the buyers account was apparently canceled after he sent the sell an email telling him it was a joke (heard that on another forum)

I am expecting similar prices to what we see now. The Yonah is probably more expensive to buy, but the other parts like the motherboard should be cheaper.
Also considering the size of the new Intel Powerbooks (basically the same size as the PowerBook G4, except a bit thinner) I am expecting them to use the ATI X1600M (it's about the speed of a G6800go) because it is quite a fast laptop chip and it is meant to be low power.

Please disregard the fact that I created an account on MacRumors out of desperation, or that you've probably heard of this before.
The situation is that I've had this First Generation iPod Touch. I've jailbroken it, it crashed once, I restored it, I used it until it crashed again. This time, I can't restore it.
1. I was reading around, (basically a post right before mine) and I found TinyUmbrella, as my iPod was stuck in the recovery state. I'm gonna see how it goes.
2. I don't remember too well, but before I tried fixing it, it was in the infinite Apple state.
3. I tried to do a regular restore. At this, I received: "unable to restore, unknown error code (6)".
-With this, I reinstalled iTunes.
-I tried to restore on a different computer.
-I switched USB ports.
-I restarted the computer.
-I turned off firewalls.
-I turned off AVG.
4. I entered DFU mode and I tried to do a regular restore. Same error code.
5. I downloaded some firmware and tried to do a restore. OS 1.1.4 gives me error code 1601.
-From time to time I get error code 1600.
-So I reinstalled iTunes.
6. I tried after reinstalling, same firmware version FOR the first generation, now I get Error 20.
-I've tried to fix, it doesn't work.
Uh, help? Appreciations to all.
Cheers.

Wow, what a ripoff. You can get it done here in Spain for under $30.
In Canada it's $50-$55, but you're SOL if you have greymarket phone like me. I have a Rogers phone and have never had a contract with them, even though I've been a subscriber to their discount brand Fido for 5 years they won't unlock it.
It's a 3GS so it's a little easier to take things into my own hands.

Hmm, I dunno. If it makes you feel any better though I just ordered 2 Ipod Nanos for both myself and my Mrs. So even if there IS a refresh, and you go ahead and buy one now, so what ey? The Ipods that we have today are incredible and they hold an incredibly large amount of songs, so you can just wait and see what happens or pick one up now and still guaranteed to not feel disappointed.
Oh and happy birthday : )

In short what I want is:
Complete music library on my TimeCapsule 2 TB (containing my 750 GB Mp3/AAC music and my 600 GB Apple Lossless music)
Separate music library exclusively for my iPhone 4 with the best 5 start tracks from my Apple Lossless music collection converted to AAC 256 and the best 5 start tracks from my Mp3/AAC library.
I will use the complete music library on my Time Capsule on both my Sonos music system and on my iMac
Is this possible :confused:

does anyone know a site i can find desktop pic for 2560 by 1440, which i just bought a brand new iMac 27"?
You can search by resolution on 4walled (http://4walled.org) and wallbase (http://wallbase.net). I don't know about interfacelift (http://interfacelift.com).

videoed,
I have also used a cheaper switch (Netgear GS605 or GS105) without issue.
Also, is your Internet router close to the Mac Pros? If so, just wire the new gigabit switch into your router and let everything go wired.

They certainly have a minimalist approach compared to Bodyguardz, et al ... they send you the film, then you have to mix your own solution to keep your hands from sticking to it.
I've no doubt they offer a quality product, but for $55, they ought to send along a couple of spray applicators!

Most of us didn't need an Apple rep to tell us it was a fake. Spymac will always be disreputable in my mind because of that incident.

Abstract
Oct 24, 06:42 PM
let me see if i understand the resolution thing:
we'll be able to adjust the resolution of monitors to really high settings, but instead of everything having to be tiny (windows, menus, text, etc.), we'll be able to make them normal size without them looking crappy? sounds awesome to me.
You can't adjust a monitor so that it has a higher resolution than it inherently does. However, if you have a high res screen, it can behave at (seemingly) lower resolutions (eg: it can operate at a size similar to 1280x800 on the MacBook), except that it would be sharper than a MacBook's screen because the screen has 1920 x 1200 pixels trying to create a desktop size equivalent to 1280x800. So instead of the 110 dpi LCD screens we have now when a 1920x1200 screen operates as a 1920 x 1200 screen, it would operate with a dpi of like 150 dpi if a 1920x1200 resolution LCD was working to create a desktop similar to a 1280 x 800 workspace.
***But again, correct me if I'm either wrong, or not entirely correct, because I want to understand this as well. :)
But like MarkCollette said, this resolution independence thing does scare me a bit as well. I want things to looks smaller if I have a resolution independent screen. Sure I wouldn't want text to be so small that I can't read it, but if they had a way to scale the text larger while leaving other elements nice and small, it would be rather ace.

Damn I deserve a medal for that. :D
I also have my MDD and iBook folding at home.

I'd just order on behalf of your kids through the online education store. If there are any issues then you could be honest and explain your situation.
I know people who have used the edu store and have specified training colleges etc. No questions were even asked.
