I went to the 3G launch at cpw at teesside park. Queue was about 20/30 people at 7am. It opened at 8. If you know it it went from cpw down to brantano. Sold out of 16gbs about half way through the queue.
I think the town centres will be less popular and should be a better bet if you really want a particular model. Plus there's more shops - I think mbro still has two o2's and a cpw?
I hope it's easier this time as I don't fancy another early start. Hopefully other carriers will have it on thursday too to dilute the queues
Yeah, I know where you meen, I'll prob stick to one of the centres, live in yarm so they are all 10-15min drive away.
Should help that o2 are only offering them to existing customers though.

I don't mind being charged for incoming calls for 2 reasons:
1. I've got a shitton of minutes available so I don't actually pay anything out of pocket.
2. I call other people's cell phones quite often. I don't have to pay so it saves me money :D
Even assuming I didn't have minutes and had to actually pay out of pocket for incoming calls, I call other cells enough that it would pretty much even out anyways.

No, alloc and release do not always occur in the same function. For example, one object creates another object (and stores a pointer to it) at init time...then at dealloc time, releases it. Very common.

I can't resist reporting this article, because it contains this sentence that you don't see very often:
"Surprisingly, Howe said, their inspiration came from cockroach legs."
Rather than build a robotic hand that could avoid mistakes while grasping a variety of objects, researchers build one that can correct mistakes on the fly, which is what humans do.
Despite its four-fingered form, the resulting hand has several human characteristics. At rest, its joints are opened from 25 to 45 degrees, and the joints at the base (our palm) are more flexible than the joints of the fingers. Dollar also added sensors to detect when a finger touches an object and the angle of the joints. While the hand automatically adjusts for many small errors, the sensors enable it to compensate for larger miscues.
The result is a very simple hand that can grasp a wide range of objects. It could become a platform for future household and service robots, where the ability to grasp different objects is important.

Isn't this exactly what we said when they killed IE. And we were right then too!

I agree with you.
Whatever Apple's introduce will be clever and easy to use. Remember that's their core philosophy, That's why I am not worrying too much.
I am skeptical of this patent. I believe Apple did patent the above, but they do that all the time to protect their ideas. That doesn't mean it's going to be the final product like that.
The only thing I can certain say is that the video iPod will be here soon. I hope before xmas. If not then at MWSF.
If its not announced by the week before thanksgiving we won't see it until at least MWSF.

Yeah I have Imovie.. so you're saying that a folder/drive should appear when the video recorder is connected?
Do you know of any settings that should be place on the computer or in Imovie that is necessary?
Thanks for the input.

The iPad 2 and iPhone 5 are still iPads and iPhones. Why would they get a separate forum anyway?
Well, the thought is that if there is a sub forum under each product for speculation, it would keep the main forum a lot cleaner. Right now in the iPad forum every other thread is another "what do you want to see in iPad 2?" thread. It makes it harder to find topics on the current iPad.
I have seen it done on other boards successfully and we already have sub forums for things like "launch meetups." Do we really need those still 7 months after a product is released?
There are a lot of products and it may not make sense in the imac/macbookpro/mac mini forums. But I would recommend it for the iPad/iPod/Iphone forums.
Just a suggestion though. It might be a lot of work to keep up with.

AT&T sold 3.6, apple says 18.65. Did verizon sell the rest of the ~15 million? :eek:
Maybe they even sold some in one of those countries OUTSIDE of America :P

I am speaking specifically about TRON Legacy here, although I suppose this question would also apply to other movies that share a similar situation.
Here's what I did: I used MakeMKV to rip my Blu-ray of TRON Legacy to an MKV file, and then I used Handbrake to convert that MKV file into an M4V file formatted specifically for use on my iPad (1024 x whatever, etc.).
Here's the problem: TRON Legacy STARTS out as a 2.35:1 widescreen movie, but during various scenes in the movie, it SWITCHES to a 1.78:1 (16:9) widescreen format which is what was used in IMAX presentations. It switches back and forth between these two formats. But because the movie STARTS in 2.35:1, Handbrake wants to rip the entire movie in that format and so it's 2.35:1 all the way through -- the 1.78:1 scenes are being truncated at the top and bottom to fit that format. What I want to know is whether there are settings in Handbrake that will let me tell it, "Rip the movie so that it's 1024 pixels wide at all times, but vary the height as required by each particular scene."
Thanks for any help!

I think what you are saying is that you want to share your purchased music with others in your office that didn't purchase the music, but I'm not sure. Try rewriting your post. Assuming that what I think you are saying is what you are actually saying, the issue of not being able to share is not something that is broken, and therefore can not be "fixed." Not being able to stream the music is part of the DRM of the iTunes Music Store. You are allowed to play the file on up to 5 computers, not stream it to an unlimited number.Well under preferences you have the Sharing option. You can listen, but not burn, copyr or download music from another person on your local network. So why couldn't you share purchased music.. That makes no sense. You're not cheating what's already there, you just lack the control that you would normally have from a purcahsed CD that was ripped into your collection.

I think it's possible you will see Apple come out with a different stand-alone display for a different market segment.
Apple sells a boatload of laptops, and everyone where I work that uses them, has a screen in their office that they connect to when they are in. The ACD is just not the screen for this market segment. It's too expensive and has all kinds of high end qualities that these folks don't need (or even know about.)
We might see Apple come out with a screen something like that rumored docking station. Glossy, thin, built in isight etc., and made primarily to connect to your laptop. The screen part however, would likely be of "acceptable" quality only, like the one in the current 17" iMac, and thus cheaper. This is a fairly low-end, cost conscious market though and not somewhere Apple generally tries to compete, so who knows.
Apple coming out with a low end display, is like saying Apple is going to release a cheap midtower. It's not going to happen. The low end display and midtower are already out, it's called an iMac.

I am looking for some good headphones because my cheap in ears have broken. Again. I heard skullcandy's are good. I found both of them for 28 dollars and 32 dollars on overstock.com. I plan on listening to rap and hip hop and techno with a little rock. Which one should I get? Opinions?

Alternative that works for both factors and character vectors:

> a
> a <- data.frame(cbind(sample(c("red","green","blue"),10,T),matrix(rnorm(30),10,3,T)))

I know this is technically a mac software question. However, since the programs are one dimensional by being only for the PSP I figured I'd put it here. Simply, which is better to purchase iPSP or PSPWare.

I can just foresee, if there are faulty CDMA units, a massive discussion over which of the two companies are the "better" manufacturer with less defects - Foxconn vs. Pegatron. I only bring this up, as I recall heated discussions in the past about how Nokias made in Finland were superior to the ones made in China or how Canada made Blackberries were better than the Mexico made ones. It'll turn into: "Get the model with serials.. XXXXXX made by Foxconn, over the ones with XXXXX from Pegatron" or vice versa.

Hey all, I currently live in Japan, and would like to get some experiences working at Apple. I haven't decided which floor I would like to work at, but it will most likely be the Genius Bar.
Now, to get in to my main point, is it possible to work at the Apple Store under the age of 18? I have no idea about the labor laws, work permit, and things like that, but I just to make sure. I saw on other thread that in state of Nevada, a person should be above the age of 16 to get a job.
BTW, I'm 17 currently.
