Don't be stupid. I'm talking about the iphone as a controller. Touch screen is not it's only control.
The racing games I play have you tilt the device to steer (kinda like using a mini steering wheel). And I've fully admitted a steering wheel is a better controller than all of other ones for racing games, but the tilt is still better than the d-pad and even joystick for racing (it's more like using a steering wheel than either).
The only thing I don't like about using the phone as a steering wheel is I am turning my screen as well, so it is harder to see what is going on. Plus I am not a huge fan of the lack of analog gas and braking.

Taiwan is not mainland China. Totally different labor situation and standard of living. They need to go to their local government and resolve it that way. Apple is a customer of this factory and has no control or responsibility for this factory. It's sad to see workers sickened but they need to seek help elsewhere.

It's hard to fathom just how high the Twin Towers stood. You could look up and just be in awe.
I've never actually been to NY but seeing some of the highrises in my city, I can only begin to imagine just the sight of seeing both towers collapse in a spectacular cloud of smoke and tremendous cacophony of twisted metal beams and hailstorm of glass.
It's really hard to fathom now when you stand by where the towers stood and look up, the buildings still standing look enormous. Now image that the towers stood there...... they were at LEAST twice as tall. You'r right, looking up at the towers you truly would be in awe. :(

That has got to be one of the most irrelevant features I have ever heard of. .......................
not irrelevant to many others. a lot of people use it for trips through the country where they take pics of buildings, scenery. there are even enough professional uses like scouting out the locations for a new golf course, new hotels, camp sites, movie set locations and many more.
there are already other solutions for it though.
you just have to have the time between your GPS device and your camera in sync. there are programs that map the automatically the pics to the gps location via the time when they where taken. sony has a dedicated gps but in priciple it works with all of them.
seems that technology is then just integrated in iphoto. sounds neat.

ben sent me this image, figured I'd post it here, since I don't think he can from his iphone.
That's why we need a MacRumors app!
I'm a little sad that I won't be lining up this year. I've lined up for the iPhone, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, iPad, and iPhone 4. But not the iPad 2 :(

Movist is Universal and should run on a PPC Mac and in 10.5.8: http://code.google.com/p/movist/
Thank you.
I'd never heard of it having used VLC on both Windows and Macs.
Am going to have him try it and it does appear as if it will work.
If there are any problems, I will be back. :p
Thank you!

you want it to make all those noises?? http://www.vwvortex.com/zeroforum_graphics/screwy.gif
in any case, read the above post, that should take care of it.
I don't really want the sounds, but they are helpful for troubleshooting. Also, if something is wrong with the modem, I just want to know about it. I could take the thing back to Apple if it's not working properly.

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.

I think I'm missing something re: getting the new iPod software for my 5G iPod. I installed iTunes, and it tells me that mine is up to date with version 1.1.2. Is there a separate download that I'm missing?
I had to hit the restore button, then it finally showed that there was the 1.2 update. all is well for me now, search functions, games, and downloading a movie now to test.
- the games look incredible, mini-golf is really addicting!

Can another company even sell music at less than $0.99? Apple has been tight with the record companies to keep the price that low. The only "competition" that could be considered cheaper would be a subscription model of music sales/rental. However, does Apples DRM even support the features necessary for a subscription model? DVD Jon can only break DRM, not add new features to it, and the devices it plays on (iPod)

Hi guys,
I got my MP 2.8 Quad last week with stock config. The games are brilliant with the 5770. HOWEVER... :p me being me, i want to upgrade the graphics card already to future proof myself more (battlefield 3, and 4 and 5 ;) ).
I've seen a lot of threads about the graphics cards on here, but i need to know:
- What is the most powerful card which can be used in the Mac Pro WITHOUT extra cables/ peripherals.
- Do any of the 69XX cards work in the Mac Pro? Which ones and how? Cables?
- Would there be space for a 2nd card insertion if the first was a 69XX?
Thanks a lot :)
Oh, and it is fine if the card works only under Windows, as long as there is enough space to keep the 5770 under Mac. :)

I'm in favour of this move. CDs were great (along with cassette tapes and LPs) because you could play them in any CD player and you could buy the CDs themselves from any shop. For some odd reason we don't get this with MP3 players and I do think that's anti-competitive. If I want to move to a different MP3 player or buy my music from another store to use on my iPod then that should be my choice and Apple should have to accept that.
This has not really been the case, though. When VHS was replaced by DVD, you didn't get the new media for free. Being locked into a particular platform occurs all the time--toner cartridges for printers aren't standardized, for example. I can't use Comcast's on demand to buy programs, then switch to DirecTV and have them transferred. When I buy the latest video game, it doesn't come packaged with PS2, PC, Mac, and XBOX versions.
See the theme? If you choose a limited hardware platform, you must accept the constraints of that platform. CDs are universal because the standard was universal (Sony, Philips, etc. formed a consortium from the get-go)--multiple manufacturers make CD players. Here, the content is the same but the packaging is different--cassette, CD, M4A. Only Apple makes M4A players.
By purchasing a song from iTunes, you are receiving the file with limitations. The reason for the price is bundling. If you want a product with no restrictions, which you want to use to the fullest extent of fair use (or beyond, if you so choose), you have to look elsewhere. You're not being denied fair use when you rent a movie on VHS for $2 when the DVD rental is $4...and you don't get to rent the VHS, then make a DVD just to save $2. Likewise, you're not paying for an unrestricted copy of the song on iTunes, and you aren't entitled to treat it as such using "fair use" as an excuse.
If you want unencumbered music, pay for the CD. If you want instant gratification and a lower price, then be an adult and accept the DRM. The option you want is out there and legally available--it's just that CDs are a "bad value." Likewise, iTunes tracks are probably a "bad value" to many people who think 99 cents should entitle them to DRM-free files. Should DRMed digital files be cheaper? I think so. But that's no excuse to go beyond the clear and publicized terms of my payment.
I don't want to have to re-purchase my iTunes music that I have bought. If DVD Jon has a way to allow reasonable consumer choice then FairPlay to him.
Nobody wants to buy things twice, but that's no excuse. I have piles of spare tools that fit cars I no longer own; toner cartridges for printers I no longer own; memory cards for cameras I no longer own; and floppy disks for computers I no longer own. Each time I switch companies, I have to deal with the consequences of my prior purchases.

About the 3D, yeah we're definitely agreeing here. No real gain, more work. Cost/benefit doesn't pan out.
As far as the second thing, I wasn't referencing you. Whoops. Sorry. :o Should have quoted them. Anyway, I agree that virtual sticks aren't the devil (unlike cursors controlled by dpads). Still, I think there has to be a better way for some of the interactions and that they're mostly being used as kludges (again, basically agreeing).

Saw an ABC Australia journalist in Japan reporting that because the phones are down people are using Facebook to post their status and location to let their families and friends know how they are. I assume Facebook will make some mileage out of this.
One of my friends has Facebook posts of one of the aftershocks where he and a bunch of others are standing out by the airplanes at Tokyo's airport. He said that luckily nobody at the International terminal in the airport seemed to be hurt, and that the duty free shops were pretty much toast. I assume he and the others are spending the night at the airport and not trying to head back to the city.
