How can you be sure of that? And you're calling me out on applying the word "fact"? Quite ironic.Please conduct a poll of those who agree with you, and let me know how many are qualified to judge.

No, nay, never... nay, never, no more! (sung with an Irish lilt). TV = mass-produced low-margin market that is focused primarily on price and specs. Exactly the kind of market that Apple avoids like the plague.

What about all of those profits from the XBox 360????? Don't those things just consist of about $8.00 worth of plastic????? :p
umm, actually it's a well known fact that (a) consoles are always sold at a loss to entice customers, and (b) microsoft loses over $100 on each console sold.
they make up for this on the rather large profits made on games and licensing games for the platform...

I use the Junk Meter widget (http://www.dashboardwidgets.com/showcase/details.php?wid=607) to see mine and just leave it sitting open on Dashboard all the time.Thanks! :) It's great, but I would have preferred a "get info" option, or something like that.
Oh well..

That render is terrible. Apple should stick with the iPhone 4 design if this is the alternative. I will never buy another product with a Chrome back casing like that. Had an iPod Touch back in the day (still have it, actually, unused) with a chrome back, and it looks like **** after like, a week of use. Scratches easily and feels weird in my hands.

Fry has serious adulation for Apple products. No surprise he did the black to white conversion with the phone.
Wow, really? So he's got a White iPhone 4? Did you see it?

If this happens I will be 100% surprised. I mean- look at the Sony TVs with Google. They're like $600 for a 24" TV. Does anyone own one of those? I just don't see this happening. Like the article says the market is overcrowded and the profit margins are too slim. Not very appealing for any company...

.....About the the mentality of the people who buy a two year old phone just so they can say they have an iPhone.
False! It speaks volumes about how consumers react to the most innovative original and popular smartphone in history being only $50 with a contract.

You may need to set the unit size in config to "big", it wont take bigadv units if it is set to normal.

He makes me think of his father: in two or three years, Aaron Sorkin will put together a TV series where Charlie Sheen plays the (heretofore unmentioned) son of Jed Bartlett, who has somehow managed to become president...

Cool my long wait is over. Nice with the bump in ram and FW800 (yes!). :)
Bummer that theres no 7200rpm HD on 15" and gosh darn it getting hit again with the lame video cards.:mad:
Oh, well you never get everything...I'll be ordering a 15" soon. Hopefully it wont be a lap burner.

It doesn't really matter at this point. Black or white, it's the iPhone. It'll still sell out.
yah the white iPhone looks fresh as hell!

Given the number of 'heated' posts on some of the threads, it is funny reading some of the responses on this thread. It sure brings a much needed source of levity to MR.

You cant really call what Apple has a cloud. Clouds are designed to span across multiple geographic locations...Apple has 1 datacenter, and zero experience running a cloud service. MobileMe runs on collocated equipment in someone else's datacenter.
Amazon on the other hand are excellent at working with the cloud.
nothing has even been released yet. why does a cloud have to run across multiple geographic locations? as long as it's online in the cloud it doesn't matter where it is.

If Apple dumped FireWire IEEE1394 for the sake of slimness, it is highly doubtful that they'd re-clutter and fatten it up with Bluetooth (which, after trying for many years (with other devices) I have now considered to be worthless crap).
Huh? Bluetooth absolutely kicks ass! I have used it extensively with my laptop and my cell-phone, when making data-calls through the phone. No need to have any wires, no need to even take out the phone. Just turn on Bluetooth on the computer and dial. And it just works. Granted, few years ago Bluetooth had all kinds of problems. But it works very very well these days.
Now, it might be that operators in USA cripple Bluetooth (I have heard that they do that). Luckily in Finland they don't do that, and things work very well indeed.

if ATT admits that 30% of dropped calls is normal, it will be normal that they give discounts ?!?!?!?! they wouldnt think thats normal !!!! what a shame to have the best phone on the worst service operator ...
