My local BB in Garner, N.C. had "some". I don't know how many. I was walking in for a different reason and saw 2 people in line at the security guy who hovers at the door when you leave. They had clear shopping bags each with an obvious iPad 2 within. They were getting their receipts checked as they were walking out.
When I finally made it to the computer section, I did not see any lines so assume they were gone or not a mad rush as expected from today's sale. It was about 30 mins after opening.

What's the vibe on this update for people who haven't had any RSS problems so far, and whose machines haven't been in for service at all???
I'm tempted to do it anyway, to stave off the possibility that it might eventually go to **** in a couple months (a la people whose week 19 machines have been fine till yesterday kinda thing), but then that old saying "if it ain't broke don't fix it" pops into my mind...

Moscone North and South were already reserved for trade shows much bigger than WWDC more than a year in advance. It's all about the total number of attendees, and these big trade shows bring in an order of magnitude more people spending money in SF than either WWDC or Google IO.
Yes, reserved now.
However look 2 years out. If back in the day MacWorld Expo could get North and South then Apple should not have a problem with getting 2 or more of the building as well.

(a) Written report; time of submission; circumstances necessitating submission; information reported
In the absence of a declaration of war, in any case in which United States Armed Forces are introduced—

(2) into the territory, airspace or waters of a foreign nation, while equipped for combat, except for deployments which relate solely to supply, replacement, repair, or training of such forces; or
(3) in numbers which substantially enlarge United States Armed Forces equipped for combat already located in a foreign nation;
the President shall submit within 48 hours to the Speaker of the House of Representatives and to the President pro tempore of the Senate a report, in writing, setting forth—
(A) the circumstances necessitating the introduction of United States Armed Forces;
(B) the constitutional and legislative authority under which such introduction took place; and
(C) the estimated scope and duration of the hostilities or involvement.
If the United States were under immediate threat, do you really think the president would have to write a report to congress "setting forth the circumstances necessitating the introduction of United States Armed Forces"?
I think the War Powers Act reaches beyond there needing to be an immediate threat.
But please, correct me if I am wrong.

But you know Apple's got a WiFi iPod in the works, and then the statement on WiFi will be that it's "indispensable." Love that guy.
...Same with the true video iPod as well. And we'll probably get one of those once they can squeeze it into a size of the 5G iPod for the same price and have the entire face of the thing be a 16:9 touch-screen with at least 864x480 resolution.

One of the best application updates Apple has done in a long time.
Great job Apple. Simply great.
Agreed. iTunes 5 and 6 were a little 'meh' but I'm loving 7 so far.

Subtle ?? That's not the current iPhone interface when in a call.
It's blaring right at you.look at that iPhone.It shows the blue area at the top.Go make a call and see how it looks.
This is a new iPhone or creative license.
That's not a poster, it's a big iPhone. They've got one in every store window. Different images scroll from bottom to top. Obviously this photo is in mid scroll.
BTW - All the iphones in iPhone commercials are very different than my iPhone. They show a small little photo of the person calling instead of a big full screen photo. Don't know why. It's the same in this ad.

Interesting points considering you don't know the music I listen to. But you are probably correct in some ways. It is interesting that some of the innovation came from EMI technicians in the studio and the Beatles themselves were influenced by countless other American artists so who made who first?

I love new technology and faster speeds, etc as much as the next guy... but personally I'd prefer the cell providers to work on other things:
Better speeds in crowded areas.
All the areas that have Edge (or less) having 3G.
ALL the rural areas that have NO service... having service.
I was driving back home from Mt. Washington this weekend and each time I'm up there, it amazes me how many roads have NO service. There's really no excuse. With the money these companies make.. it's a safety issue.

In the 2 years I've had an iPhone, I haven't once visited a website that has needed Flash. Personally I really don't care if the iPhone gets it or not. It does the sites I need.
All this is, is Apple thinking it knows better than the consumer, a Steve Jobs mentality. I like his thinking but I'd like to see an actually push by Apple to make things better then.

Sligthly off-topic:
Judging from history what do you thing, when would iLife '07 be available?
I am seriously considering to wait a little longer (the 1.83 model has left me strongly disappointed).
So I thought I can wait a little longer and buy when iLife 07 will be included in the purchase (to make up for the lousy specs ) :rolleyes:

Haven't taken a photo in ages, decided to shake off the rust by trying my hand at some more HDR shots. Processed this one in Photoshop, because for some reason Photomatix Pro and I haven't been getting along well lately.

But once 4G is implemented, will Verizon's internet and downloading be the same or faster speed-wise than AT&T?
I know currently AT&T is faster...

jeez, 8 whole mega pixels??? Wow fruit, welcome to you sure are being generous here. My android phone has 8mp and it came a full year ago... The pictures it takes are pretty sweet compared to my friends i(paidtomuch)phone4. I'm not trying to bash anyone but I see a lot of fruit boys on here saying they are OK with whatever fruity says. Ya'll really need to revolt or something because that's not right. I guess once the specs are finalized, we will see a 10+ mega pixel camera on either android or windows phone? I have no idea..
I will suggest that perhaps a physical side camera button like the Windows phone has for taking pictures would great because with a touchscreen it is hard to tell if you took a picture in a noisy environment when you can hear the click.
That is all.

You do understand that a ton of 8 MP cameras on a phone has been compared to the iPhone 4's 5 MP camera and the iPhone's camera still came out on top, right?

I love how everybody is like "I've got the CDs who cares" or "Buy the CDs they are cheaper". The Beatles on iTunes isn't for you. It is for people who don't buy CDs, it's for the future when the majority of people get digital music and it's certainly for a whole generation of kids who won't know what a CD is or care, in the same way that vinyl is now seen as archaic.
I'm sure I am repeating someone else's thoughts, but it doesn't seem clear to a lot of people.
