1) The mini is 2x as expensive as iTV
2) The mini would cost even more with HDMI (at least right now)
3) A lot of consumers just want the simplicity of a set-top box.
4) Others don't want to waste the power of a full computer just as a media center.
You forgot...
5) Because iTV is targeted at iPod/iTunes users - the majority of which use Wintel systems to manage their media. Making this a "Mac only" product would cut off the bulk of Apple's target market. Many of these Windows users would not want to buy a second computer running an unfamiliar OS just to stream their movies and music.

So considering I will be attempting to buy an iPad 2 tomorrow (standing in line in the morning @ an apple store), will tomorrow be to late?
I tried this morning and Tiny Umbrella said I am too late :(

I find the interface of this thing more interesting the the button thing... This must be the interface of the future because the menu system on the present ipods, i know its brilliant but its a bit old, by the way its more remote control than ipod, i think theres too much info on the screen for it too be an ipod... i reckon its a media remote control thing.. The patent doenst mention ipod so i think its a remote for bringing music to the living room... im probably wrong but thats what i think.. Anyway ive been waiting for touch screen not touch sides...

It says this;
Antatt utsendelsesdato (Ships on): 03 May, 2011
Antatt leveringsdato (Estimated delivery): 23 May, 2011
Could it be here earlier? Seriously, does it take Apple 20 days to send something from Taiwan to Norway? I clearly understand why the shipping is free.
Well that doesn't sound right (and btw, shouldn't it be coming from mainland China, not Taiwan?), but then I'm not familiar with the shipping situation in Norway. All I can tell you is that in the US, Apple shipping a product from China to US usually takes about 5-7 days.
Could someone please answer my question in my previous post?
And btw, what does "Merge In Tnst NL Til" mean? oO
Again, I have no idea. And I doubt anyone at MacRumors will know. You should just call up Apple's customer service.

With Comex no linger working on the ipad2 JB looks like d0fxyn is the only hope at this point. Wow, not sure why but didn't think it would be this sure when I bought my ipad2.
I don't think he is fake. He has a facebook page and twitter. He is saying he is releasing it tomorrow. Guess we will see tomorrow.

thanks for the feedback. I like the over exposure and most of it was intentional. but to each their own. :p
I would have recommended stopping up so that your whites weren't completely blown out and then color correcting as far as the first video goes.

Anyone else know why the scroll bar in the diagram is on the left? Should'nt it be on the right hand side of the screen?:confused:
Obfuscation. Patent drawings aren't usually drawings, in order to make it difficult to reproduce.
As for other things to add. Some sort of orientation sensor so that the image changed from landscape to portrait as its rotated. Text to speech for books, or at the very least build it into itunes.
I like the idea of being able to sync the metadata back and forth. I try to rate all of my songs so that I can shuffle through the ones that I like and don't have to listen to the ones I couldn't bring myself to delete.

I have an Edison and a Richard Feynman that I know are 100% originals and they do not have a copyright line on them. Neither does my Picasso, my Joan Baez, my Ghandi, or my Hitchcock. Only the ones I have gotten from Germany on eBay have the copyright line on them....the Buzz Aldrins, and a set of 6 of the 22x28" posters all have the copyright line on them.

At the very least, resolution independence is no worse than changing the display resolution. If you change the display resolution, the monitor is simply doing scaling automatically to match it to the native resolution. However, it's scaling the entire screen as a single bitmap. This is why the screen looks blurry if you run at anything but the native resolution. (Note: This is with LCDs.)
With resolution indepence, at worst you do the same type of scaling in the OS. However in this case, the scaling algorithm affects only one app, the algorithm can be updated, and it can be better than the one used by the monitor.
And now they won't have to.
I guess we'll agree to disagree, and wait to find out. We already know that Apple knows that scaling things up will result in a loss of quality, or else they wouldn't be rebuilding all their graphics.

Hi,
New Mac user (os x 10.6). The transition from pc to mac has been interesting. Sometimes limiting but I am getting there.
One thing I haven't found in the forums and dont really know what to type into google to search for is....
With mac mail, if i try and add an email to the TO:, CC:, BCC: instead of just typing the name of the person in the address book. I have to type the email address. Once I type the first few letters of the email address, it has a drop down with options to choose from.
For example.
If I had a friend called Joe Smith and his email was something completely random like car_man@cars.com, I can't just type Joe and the address book will drop down options for Joe. I have to remember his random email address and type CAR and then it will give me all the emails that have car in it.
Can this be changed so I type their names?

One of the things that bugs me quite a bit in tiger is the video mirroring - it always runs at the native resolution of the lower-res display, presumably now with this new feature this won't matter, and both displays can be run at their native resolutions whilst still being mirrored?

I was going to wait at the Apple Store that day, but thought that by the time I got there the line would be too long and they would run out, so I went to an AT&T store close by to get the iPhone. I did run by the Apple Store around 10pm that same evening and found out that they had more than enough phones to go around.
I heard the line was insanely long that day, but was managed well and it didn't take long to get all those people in and out of the store with their new toy...I'm sure next Friday will be the same way depending on how many people are going to buy a new Mac the same day as well.
It's going to be interesting. :)

If you look closely, Anandtech refers to a MacRumors thread that we started here 2 months ago. That said, the Samsung drive does appear to be a nice silent upgrade for those lucky enough to get it.
Any statistics available for those who have one vs the other by any chance?

Wow. Let's hope it looks better than that diagram. Anyways this would be the ultimate iPod (Could be a 4 or 5 inch screen). Of course, the screen needs to be more scratch resistant than previous generations. And they have to bump up the resolution on their iTunes store. But I'd be surprised if we see this anytime soon.
Judging by the size of the fingers, this thing is at least 5x7. :D
If the entire surface of the ipod isn't more scratch resistant than previous generations I probably won't buy one. I have my cell phone in my pocket all day and it is barely scratched after months of daily use. My iPod 5G got those fine scraches on it just from sliding it into the case that *Apple included with the ipod*.

how would i go about bouncing the click to it's own audio track?
I could be wrong, but I don't think you can. Logic's term for "bounce" is "freeze". But as I and one other said above, you can make a drum track that is just one hit per beat on something that sounds good to you, like a wood block or whatever. Then of course you can end that when ever you like

Well at least on Android if you WANT the latest OS you CAN have it. On iPhone if you want to be jailbroken you CANT have the latest OS more times than not, especially lately. If Android sux, switch back to iPhone, see how you love it after you're back.
Basically your nose is out of joint because you made a mistake when you bought your iPad2. so get rid of it if you hate it so much. just stop whining about things that are never going to change. it's very boring.

It will be this year. Most likely WWDC, along with a new refreshed, redesigned Nehalem Mac Pro (no kidding, another one will be out then). Don't listen to the others. I think Apple is holding off till this date.
Well, if they don't release in January then I hope you are right. There is nothing worse than buying something and 1 month later Apple updates it. If ACD gets update at the end of the year with Nehalem (don't expect Nehalem sooner) then I will be more than happy with my february purchase. :)
