Still have my iPod hooked up via USB in my Infiniti with all my music. Flash is too expensive to replace a HDD with the required size. Maybe a slight revamp but the classic iPod is still selling well enough for Apple I don't see it being removed in the near future.

Bear in mind, Jobs is making fun of wireless capacities today. Apple probably waited for the right time to release the "video" iPod (IMHO they could've waited for at least 640x480), so it's not as bad as you describe it.
There are other wireless capacities that wuld be much more useful, for example, wirless bluetooth headphones. (Like logitech makes, but without the external transmitter)

If it were glasses-less 3d... wouldn't it need a retina display at 240hz? 120fps for each eye? Someone please correct me if I'm wrong!

They should do a commercial with the Mac and PC guy. The Mac guy can have an iPod the PC guy a Zune. Enter cute girl. She gets an earbud from the Mac guy as she smiles looking like they might start making out. PC guy gets that dude in a dress asking, "Did you get it? I don't get it!"

Fair enough.
I think that was common sense and wasn't worth mentioning in any context.
I think it was worth mentioning, especially in the context of a discussion on cameras and the quality of the images they produce. It's good to remember that these things are tools and not be obsessed to the point of ignoring the creativity that is required to make these tools useful.
If common sense was more common, the megapixel myth wouldn't exist :)

I Am Pretty Sure It Will Support Two 2GB Sticks For A Total Of 4GB
Yes. I think they just didn't want to scare buyers with an extra $1500 of their insane RAM prices.
It's possibly a waste of money, though. The 32-bit Napa chipset might make it impossible to use most of the top GiB.
But I'm sure somebody will put 4 GiB in one of these soon and tell us the real story!

The usual answer would be: start with a new source, and compress that to 640x480. If you start with a video that's already 320x240, you can't expect it to look better if you later try to re-encode it to a larger screen size. Can't get data from nowhere... can't get blood from a stone.
I think the person was referring to content they already pruchased from iTunes store. In which case, as I posted before, I too am wondering this same question. Looks like I will have to send Apple an email.

I really don't see any MB or MBP updates. Again, I could be off, but I don't see those until later this year.
I'm sure the C2D chips coming out on all sorts of Windows laptops may be putting some pressure on Apple to update their laptop line, but I think it's still too soon.
It's not too soon at all, at least for the MB pro. I doubt we'll see an announcement at THIS event, but I expect we'll see at least a MBP update in the next couple weeks. I'd guess no event, just a press release. Minis and iMacs should also get updated in the next few weeks, probably also a press release for each.

34C is really, really low. 54C sounds more normal. How does your MacBook feel to the touch? Warmer? Perhaps it was reading the temp incorrectly before and is now reading it correctly?
Is this under normal operating conditions? Not pushing it?
According to CoreDuoTemp and iStatPro, my MB is usually around 19 to 25C. I've seen it reach 50ish when I push it. :confused: :confused:

You're right, it wasn't the RIAA handing the fines, of course, it was courts. But you're wrong, there most certainly have been fines:

http://www.pcworld.com/article/112436/industry_group_pays_childs_riaa_fine.html
Those aren't fines, they're damage awards by juries. Shody reporting and misuse of the word fine.

no, this will not happen. RCR is looking for publicity.
Yeah, never trust rumors unless there are more than one article about it. Remember the iSlate? The Best Buy scam? Other stuff I don't remember? You have to let it develop first. Just because Apple PATENTS it doesn't mean that they are going to USE it.

None of these "parts of black culture" are unique to blacks, nor are they fundamentally identified with blacks only. Furthermore, I have never suggested that black people have no responsibility to be productive, law-abiding citizens. However, the suggestion that blacks can somehow gain equality with whites just by "getting their act together" is totally fallacious.
Well they can certainly gain equality with me by getting their act together, anyone can. I judge people individually based on their behavior :eek:.
I frequently work with plenty of black students (of African American, and African dissent) they're damn smart and they work damn hard. In fact they're exactly like your or I (in case that isn't obvious :rolleyes:).
Are they're plenty of racists out there? Your right there are. Are there plenty of people out there who aren't racist and yet it is blatantly obvious to them that they're are some serious problems in black communities and with black culture, (problems which go well beyond poverty and lack of education) guess what there are plenty of those as well.
Also how on earth do you imagine that a number of the problems aren't highly specific to the black community?? You must have your head so far down the whole of destructive political correctness you can't see daylight
No other community takes pride in producing "baby mamas" and propagates the idea (in music and other media) that begetting women with children (regardless of one's commitment to the situation or financial readiness) is a good idea. :confused:
No other community has developed a racial dialect which is so improper that anyone who speaks it sounds totally un-educated. I go to school with quite a few black student's who are very intelligent, work very hard, and speak like un-educated hooligans. Your fooling yourself if you can't recognize the fact that failing to speak passable English is a serious dis-advantage if your searching for work or internships.
Now if you continue to refuse to recognize that there are serious cultural differences between the black communities in the United States and other communities lets look at some other numbers.
The percentage of children born out of wedlock is 41% according to the cdc.
http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/unmarry.htm
Black children are born out of wedlock 72% of the time, 31% more frequently than the average.
Hispanic children on the other hand are born out of wedlock 51% of the time only 10% more often than the average.
http://articles.cnn.com/2009-04-08/living/out.of.wedlock.births_1_out-of-wedlock-unwed-mothers-wedding-dress/2?_s=PM:LIVING
But wait, if your willing to believe Wikipedia Hispanics as a demographic group are the POOREST racial demographic group in this country.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_income_in_the_United_States
Poorer on average than black citizens, yet despite that dis-advantage Hispanics manage to stay several standard deviations nearer the national average than the black community.
I'll say it again there are serious cultural problems within the black community/culture, problems unique to African Americans. Your not doing anyone favors by refusing to acknowledge these problems. Are there external forces which make it more difficult for blacks in the United States (and other western nations) to advance simply because of their race? You betcha . Are there major problems within the black community and black culture that make it hard for blacks in the west to advance? Absolutely.
Is it possible that those internal problems are equally or more significant than external barriers? In my opinion some of the evidence I've looked at suggests this.
This all suggests to me that as a nation we wouldn't be remiss if we started considering ways to confront these internal issues rather than assuming the most important factors are always external, and un-related to the affected community.

I've always felt that WW2 was justified though the way we ended the war was unfortunate and un-necessary.
I'm also generally in support of intervening to stop genocide/ethnic cleansing.
Unnecessary Wars:
Revolutionary
War 1812
Civil War
Spanish American War
WW1
Korean War
Vietnam War
Desert Storm (Iraq 1.0) maybe necessary but easily avoided
Afghanistan
Iraq War
Interesting list.
I'd assume that you are also not a supporter of the USA's forays south of our border during the last century and a half.
I wonder what Rand thinks about the sale of US military goods to foreign countries? Surely the sale of such, especially to militant countries like Iraq, Libya, Israel, etc, violates his sacrosanct policy of non-intervention.
