Hi Everyone,
This is my first macrumors.com posting! Nice to meet you, *wave, wave*. :) I�m a pretty indecisive person so the questions I�ve been grappling with over the past few weeks have been pretty overwhelming! (Sorry for the long posting, but please read it. I need your help!)
Basically, here�s the dilemma. My 12� Powerbook (bought in Aug 2003) stopped liking me sometime ago (about a year) and has been giving me kernel panics. Now I get them 2-3 times a day! (In fact, I�m writing this posting in Word so I can save it because I�ve had 2 kernel panics while writing this! Darn, I hope I can get something for it on eBay.) So it is definitely time to move on especially since I�ve been to the Apple Store several times and they always have a different story as to how to fix it. And no I don�t have Apple Care. (Most recently they told me it would cost $350 just to send it to CA to look at!! Forget that!)
So after reading several macrumors.com postings =) I�ve decided to order a 14� iBook with Apple Care protection and a 60 GB iPod (w/ $179 education mail-in rebate). Problem is that I want to order an iBook special order with 80 GB (I need the extra 20 GB for all my graphic design stuff and I�m terrified of external drives, have heard they die on people! Yikes!). The Apple Store in the mall won�t do special orders in store so I have to order it online.
I heard that the Apple Credit Card is offering 120 days same as cash so I applied for it online and got approved for only enough to cover the laptop. But in order to get the $179 iPod rebate I have to order them both at the same time. Therefore I have to use 2 credit cards. Apple Online accepts only 1 credit card. Same goes for 1-800-My-Apple.
So I sauntered over to the Computer Store on campus. The people there were very friendly and helpful and offered to do a special order and use 2 credit cards. They also offered to call up Apple Credit Card and see if I could get 120 days same as cash even though it�s not directly from Apple. But they said No. So I waited a few days for inspiration to decide for me. Got worried about waiting (Sept 24th is last day for rebate and PB is failing) and so ordered from the Computer Store on campus, put down 10 percent, and walked away with a new 60 GB iPod.
Then this morning I got a call from Apple Credit Card saying that guess what? They got a call from someone (the computer store?) and now they can up my limit to just barely cover 14� iBook plus Apple Care plus 60 GB iPod. So now I can order it online. Good news and bad news. I called up the Computer Store and they said they�d cancel my order and refund my 10 percent down payment if I brought in the new 60 GB iPod that I would receive from the online order (I already opened the iPod I brought home from the store). But now I�m wondering if it�s worth it to order it online anymore. I would save $120 tax plus $100 in finance charges and might be able to use a coupon code if I can find an unused one on this website. However I�d have to go through the hassle of canceling my order from the Computer Store (plus my guilt that they went through all that trouble and didn't land a sale).
THE DECISION: I need to decide whether to order from Apple Education Online Store or from the Computer Store on campus. I NEED TO FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO ASAP! (Because I�ll have to cancel the order at the Computer Store very soon if I decide to do so!)
Online Advantages:
No Tax (saves $120)
Maybe use coupon?
120 days same as cash financing (Saves about $100 or so)
Can charge everything to one finance-free card (refund $ to other CC used in down payment)
Less worry about whether the iPod rebate will be verified (no split payments and also direct from Apple)
Online Disadvantages:
Hassle of canceling order at Computer Store & bringing back new online iPod
May not get Apple Care (I heard that if Apple notices that it�s sent to a FL address they cancel the Apple Care? Call and check?)
Must wait longer to get computer (comes from China, 1-2 weeks)
Can only talk to Apple Customer Service if there are problems
Purely speculation, but I hear that some iBooks are screwy and maybe direct from China iBooks are more screwy than if you order it from the store?
In Store Advantages:
Get computer faster (Next Tuesday, Sept. 20)
Direct people I can talk to if I have any problems
Can order more products now on my increased limit Apple credit card since I've already charged part of my order to another card (Can order Apple Mouse and Keyboard and cases for iPod and iBook)
In Store Disadvantages:
Won�t get same-as-cash financing (Will lose about $100+)
Must pay Tax (Will lose about $120)
Must go to school to pick it up (not shipped directly)
P.S. Once I make my decision I�ll post what option I decided to go with! Thanks for your help! :)

It's always funny to see stuff like this. The same person says:
"I think it will be out soon"
"I don't think it will be out soon"
"There's no way to know when it'll be out"
So how do you say you think it will, won't, and don't know? I'd recommend that if you don't have an affirmative or a negative answer, don't speculate. It's very confusing for those new to jailbreaking to see people who have zero ties to the developers whatsoever chiming in saying they think there will be a short term or distant term release. If you don't have FIRST HAND knowledge, don't speculate without providing evidence of how you came to make such statement.

There is some cool technology/dreaming being shown there..... but, I am Not going to use any technology to check my work schedule while I'm brushing my teeth. My work day does not start until I'm done with my morning, um, ablutions - I don't care how important the meeting or cool the technology.
I like the idea of putting your smart phone down to activate the table top displays. It bypasses the insecurity of having a room full of people watch you type your credentials. It also defines the initial area of display. If the default setting (perhaps set in the phone?) is, for eg, that the phone defines the top right corner then both the table top display know what the other wants.
I wouldn't want to read a book on something with the weight of a few sheets of paper. Too shaky (hand-shake). A book's weight uses inertia to absorb these very minor tremors. They may be minor, but they are fatiguing if you are trying to hold a page up for extended reading.

WAV should be CD quality. I haven't seen the pricing, but I'd personally probably buy the WAV version and make my own AAC/MP3 versions from that.
MP3 version is $9 and the WAV version is $14. I would rather pay a few bucks more an own the WAV version, then convert that down to an AAC version.

OF course you do - need to repurchase. Do you really expect Apple to give away higher resolution content to those that already have the 320x versions?
If so, you need a reality check. Really.
You have posed a question and not provided an answer, merely a remark questioning my understanding of reality.
I provided a response to a member's question - do you need to repurchase? The answer is, for me at least, yes. I suggested, perhaps too forcefully, that I did not appreciate this requirement.
This is a very 'real' issue. If broadband uptake and speeds continue to rise, and consumer acceptance of digital media increases, than higher quality content will be more readily demanded and easier to supply. However, if quality enhancements are too quick, and a consumer must repurchase his or her entire collection (or favourite parts of) too regularly than disatisfaction is felt. It is felt in the frustration of having to spend more time and money re-downloading something that a consumer perceives he or she already owns.
How can Apple avoid this. One is communication of value. The problem with this approach is that it is very subjective - a consumer could heavily discount the quality enhancement when compared to the additional time and money spent. In other words, a consumer values his or her time and money more than the quality. Another is discounting; that is, offering discounts to those customers who already own the pre iTunes 7.0 versions. This is still subjective, but offers a consumer something tangible (dollars saved).

It's saying it on both iTunes & the phone, so would this be some sort of horrific software coincidence or a hardware fault do you reckon?
Try restoring it as new? I have not a clue as to why it's only showing 12GB's they are supposed to average at about 14.3.

I've never understood the argument against the Air because of it's lack of DVD drive. I have no idea when the last time was I used mine, and it takes up a massive amount of space and weight on my MacBook.
I'm sure some people have uses of a DVD drive and for them its understandable, but I feel most people, myself included fall into the "I can't remember the last time I've used my CD/DVD drive ..." category. Which is why I replaced mine entirely with a SSD drive, which I boot from. I would recommend it to anybody with the available funds.

You do know that the accelerometer output consists of 3 values for the X Y and Z components of acceleration, right?
B
Yes i am aware of the accelerometer's capability. But i am only working with the X readings for now..
The acceleration.x readings are casted into integers and saved in a stroreArray, In a button press the values are saved, when the button is pressed again different set of values are saved...
I have this code in the method i am trying to compare the values from the accelerometer reading.
.
.
int value=0;
for (int i=0;i<storeArray; i++) {
{
if ([[storeArray objectAtIndex:i] intValue] == x && [[storeArray objectAtIndex:i+1] intValue] == y)
{
value++;
}
[array2 replaceObjectAtIndex:position withObject:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:value]];

It's not greed. They make a good product that people want and are willing to pay for.
Is it greed because my client list has an addendum that is a waiting-to-be-my-client list? I'm good at what I do, people want what I do and they're willing to pay me at my current rate. ....
No kidding, that line is always so long. But, when did McDonald's stop calling them customers and start calling them clients? Smart move, either way.

What I don't get is what you are asking? You asked if the card is fast enough. You have the camera, you have the card, try it out. Like I said, that card works fine for me with that setup and they're cheap. Do you really care about read speed when you are dumping your card at the end of the day? Do you NEED the fastest card? You need something that works and that card works.
And a card reader... how about $5 for a USB2? http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/462560-REG/Jobo_SE9231_SE9231_23_in_1_USB_2_0.html

[QUOTE=NY Guitarist;12326532]I will buy the MBA when it gets a backlit keyboard. I really like the small, light form but need to be able to see the keys in a dark room (or stage). The sales guy at the Apple store just told me to "crank the screen brightness and tilt the display down to light the keys". :D Yeah, uh no, the last thing I need in the dark is a brighter screen.
It is one or two generations before the curent moddel, but mine has the SSD and the backlit keyboard. I couldn't live without the backlit keyboard....use it on night flights and in bed all the time.
I'd consider selling my 13" and getting an 11", but not till they put back the backlit keyboard. Can't understand why they did away with it.
You can sometimes find used ones on Ebay or in the Apple refurbished store.

Over the course of time, mobiles will displace consoles.
We can already mirror the iPad 2 onto HDTVs. Not the best news for dedicated consoles. It's not perfect, but it's a powerful portent. Dedicated devices (as opposed to convergence) are destined to DIE.
iCal this. Then in 2-3 years revisit this comment and be astounded.
not going to happen
Mass Effect 2 is on 2 DVD's for the x-box and a blu ray for the PS3. the iOS version of ME sucks in comparison. a new generation of consoles will be released starting this year and going into 2012 and expect MS and Sony to have blu ray. that's 50GB per disc and hard drives with almost a TB will probably be available to load your games on the console
there is no way iOS can compete with that unless the devices get huge bump in storage
