Hello Everyone!
I recently joined MacRumors! Anyway, I want to ask the opinion of everyone.
Do you think the iPod Classic will get an update? Someone stole my iPod August 2010 and I haven't had the money to get a new one. But since it is my birthday, my family told me they'll buy me a new one.
Am really a music person. Am not so much into apps and stuff. But, most of my friends are telling me to just get an iPod touch since it is sooo much better than the iPod classic.
So, I was wondering if anyone can help me decide if I'll buy an iPod now or wait for September? and, which iPod to buy? Classic or Touch.
Thanks!! ;)

The reason I used a computer based VPN server is because the Apple Time capsule does not have VPN built in. If your router can serve as a VPN server, use your router.
What router do you have?
I have a buffalo WHR-HP-G54 flashed to the latest DDWRT Flash that has VPN services ........

I bought my 13-inch MBA back in the winter and it's the best notebook I have ever used.
I say it's a notebook because it doesn't feel like a netbook. It's got a big trackpad, a full-size keyboard, a gorgeous high-DPI display, it's super thin. And it runs Logic Express smooth as silk. A netbook can't do those things.

Given how much a sham their extended warranties are (hardware-based, not brand- or OS-based; protect a $2200 MBP and they'll replace it with a $500 Windows-based thing with the same CPU inside.)

Why don't you just split the audio with a Y adapter so that you don't have to switch it. It will just always be active. This to me seems like a cheaper and better solution.

I've had 3 iPhone 4's unlocked by Rogers, 2 of which were under contract. It is against their internal policies, but it partly depends on the rep you get. For the second phone I got one that was so confused (policy was only a week old) that I was able to convince him the policy allowed me to be unlocked and so he did.
Wait, you got Rogers to unlock your iPhone?! Is this a new policy or did u get lucky?

wow, setting your bars pretty high, huh? 2 years. top 3. bold statement I agree with that poster.
Key partner - Nokia (#1 volume seller of the world)
Did you see sales of Symbian phones from last year? And that is an outdated looking OS. Nokia may be catered for the cheap, plastic prepaid phones here in the USA but they are still highly popular everywhere else.
Android was still for the niche crowd back in 2009 selling about 6M units. They grew by 10X last year. Once people's contracts are up, I can see moving onto other OSes eventually just for their fickle nature and willing to try something different. Microsoft should try to make an Xbox phone. Their Xbox 360 has been successful for them and the Kinect became one of the fastest selling gadgets in history with over 10M in a few months. In two years it will be Android #1 with iOS and WP7 filling up 2nd and 3rd based in volume sales. Based on profits, Apple still wins. BlackBerry is still niche outside NA and webOS is even more obscure.
iPhone's popularity is like Facebook. Once your auntie and grandma have one now, it became "less cool." And it's an industry based on trends and fickle people.
As for nomore Zune players, who cares? Zune software still lives on with WP7 phones. If you aren't Apple, you don't matter in the mp3/pmp market which has become niche anyway thanks to phones. I was using my Zune software and Sony Media Go just to watch videos on my laptop last night. Less crashes than what iTunes does for me. Software will still live on.
This is my personal roadmap with phones -
2010 - iOS
2011 - Android or BlackBerry OS 7
2012 - Nokia WP7 phone w/ Xenon flash or Samsung w/ SAMOLED
Then rotate and rotate it because I am cool like that OWNING the top 4 best OSes out there! Palm/HP webOS is too much like BB's QNX/BB OS 7 for me to consider it.
iOS has the apps, simplicity, best batt life, and best "all-around" features. Android has the geeky customization, cutting-edge hardware first, and the PlayStation games which will coincide with my Sony PSP2/NGP. BlackBerry has the best multi-tasking and slickest OS thanks to TAT. WP7 is there to implement my Zune and Xbox Live stuff while a OLED screen compliments the look of WP7. Also, Nokia will gives us Xenon flash. It all balances out, baby.

$40 sounds about right for labor. The little mini can be a pain to work on. Alternatively, you could try replacing it yourself. Chances are, the bluetooth works fine, and is just disconnected.

i love my eMac's they had been the actual reason why i switched to Mac , from linux in 2009 , they are i think the most underrated Mac's of all time and dont deserve to stand in the shadow of G4 iMac's and G4 minis , ok it has a positive side you can pick them up for less then a mini or iMac costs
now i got 4 of them and they got me hooked to Mac's since then i buy Mac's whenever i can afford one , crazy me :)

PS: Just confirmed that cablevision are as@@@@@es. New version DOESN'T work over VPN. Back to old version.

Has any one else noticed, or has it already been pointed out, that on the iCal image on the apple.com Leopard preview site

we see the iCal app open but the little black triangle under the icon in the dock is missing.

Correct me If I'm wrong but I believe that i0nic is working on the unthether exploit that will be used to jailbreak the ipad2
Nope he specifically said in his tweet that he is not involved in any ipad2 jb. Only people working on the ipad2 jailbreak are p0sixninja (chronic dev team) who is collaborating with musclenerd and maybe comex. Basically they are trying to find a bootrom exploit to use which can not be patched by updates. i0nic only found kernel exploits which can not be used without further root access.

I was in the middle of the line (got there around 0800) and there were no wifi-only-models left. It sounded like they had a lot of AT&T models, though.
So the wifi units sold out first? How many total units? 100 or so?

I was at LAX waiting for a flight. As you can imagine, all the flights were cancelled and United put me up in a hotel.
I had actually taken a United flight from Newark to LA the day before (which was one of the routes that was hijacked) so that was close...
Edit: first thing I did was ring one of my friends in NJ to see if he was ok, since he had a job interview in NYC that morning. He was ok, he had heard about it on the way and turned around.

Im going crazy trying to set this up. How do i know the range of dhcp ip addresses my router gives out? my router ip is the same as yours.
What router do you have? Your router should have a configuration page where you can look and see what IPs it's giving out. Or just go into system preferences/network on your mac and look at your IP and the router IP address.

Hi
Asking 1900$
I'm selling my few month old Macbook Pro. It is the newest generation MBP with:
15.4 inch matte screen
2.4ghz 3MB cache Penryn Processor
2 Gigabytes of RAM
200 Gigabytes of Hard Drive
256MB nVidia geForce 8600 Pro
MULTI-TOUCH TRACKPAD
It is in absolutely MINT condition, as I have babied it completely. It looks as if it's brand new out of the box.
The battery lasts between 4-5 hours depending on the type of usage, which is unheard of in this size class of laptops.
The laptop will come in its original box with all original accessories, CDs, etc. It will come with:
- Shipping box (the box it was shipped in)
- Original box
- Magsafe Power adapter
- Power adapter extension
- Cleaning cloth
- Leopard installation disks
Email me with any questions! Thanks!
**EDIT: Almost forgot to say that the 1 year Applecare warranty ends on March 7 2009! You also have until then to extend it to 3 years if you'd like.

Probably a poor choice of words from my side.
I mean that the last 5 lines of the page were transferred to an extra page.
i cant be 100% sure that my method will work, but just give it a shot.
Now a common problem i find with word that sometimes annoys me is the "space before/after paragraph" i am not 100% sure that word has it on the mac .. but what might be the problem is that both [B]before/B] and [B]after [or for that case one] may be checked and thus producing a greater amount of lines.
this could also have something to do with the translation of the files from pages to docx...
two solutions you may try would be:
1. make sure that there are no spaces "before or after" the paragraph
http://uksbsguy.com/images/c85a232101fd_1312B/image_thumb1.png
http://www.espacomac.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/word-office-2011.png
now i haven't opened up word 2011 for about a week of so so my memory isn't as accurate [and i dont have my mac with me now..] but if you see on the above image where the "5" is on the ruler. right above that is two opposite lines with a space in between. click that and you might see the first image.. if not re post and i will post something as soon as i get my mac [ in a couple of hours +/-?]
2. try emailing yourself the text and then copy and pasting it into a word document straight from the email.. this might work and get rid of the spacing issues? [but remember to make sure it's single spaced.. and then double space it on the word document?]
i hope it works out!!

It shouldn't make any difference. Are you seeing any problems or is this just precautionary? I have my iPad technically plugging in (charging via USB from my laptop) all the time and I never get any trouble. I don't track when it reaches 100%.
