[QUOTE=NY Guitarist;12326532]I will buy the MBA when it gets a backlit keyboard. I really like the small, light form but need to be able to see the keys in a dark room (or stage). The sales guy at the Apple store just told me to "crank the screen brightness and tilt the display down to light the keys". :D Yeah, uh no, the last thing I need in the dark is a brighter screen.
It is one or two generations before the curent moddel, but mine has the SSD and the backlit keyboard. I couldn't live without the backlit keyboard....use it on night flights and in bed all the time.
I'd consider selling my 13" and getting an 11", but not till they put back the backlit keyboard. Can't understand why they did away with it.
You can sometimes find used ones on Ebay or in the Apple refurbished store.

We will see something similar to what happened last Fall? - Apple holding an event in september, then a couple weeks later another invite goes out saying "One More Thing..." like last year. and that event will be mid october or something?
Or are we done for the year?
vPod. *fingers crossed*

what about as a center console unit?
i can do that easily with an iPad accessory (putting them on the back of seats).

MacBook Air is awesome because they're so small. People want that in a product.
Only for specific purposes. I prefer 2x24" or 27" monitor for real work.

Also, to anyone who wants to set up this VPN on a Mac but doesn't have Leopard or above (which EasyVPN requires), you can set this up in Tiger (10.4) using iVPN. It's simple and mostly the same as the guide by the OP, but slightly different. Feel free to reach out to me if you are on Tiger and want help setting it up with iVPN.

Ambrosia Software (http://www.ambrosiasw.com) hosted a booth at this year's Macworld Expo to promote the some of their new and upcoming software titles for the Mac.
http://images.macrumors.com/article/2008/01/18/030034-ambrosia_500.jpg
Their most recent utility launch was of WireTap Studio (http://www.ambrosiasw.com/utilities/wiretap/) which we've previously previewed (http://www.macrumors.com/2007/09/13/exclusive-preview-ambrosia-softwares-wiretap-studio/) ahead of the official launch. WireTap Studio provides some unique tools for anyone who needs to record or manage audio on their Mac. LivePreview remains the most dramatic feature, allowing you to preview different audio encodings in real time to find the best balance of quality vs. size. I'd expect that podcasters in particular would have an interest in this $69 tool.
iToner (http://www.ambrosiasw.com/utilities/itoner/) is an easy-to-use $15 utility that allows you to convert existing songs (MP3, MP4, AIFF or WAV) into custom iPhone ringtones. The just-announced iPhone 1.1.3 firmware breaks iToner functionality, however, but Ambrosia tells us that version 1.0.6 of iToner is in beta testing and will address the iPhone 1.1.3 incompatibility.

Finally, Aquaria is a new game that Ambrosia will be releasing in "Q1 2008" which is a port of a PC game originally created by Bit Blot (http://www.bit-blot.com/). The PC version of the game was only recently released in December of 2007 and well received (http://pc.ign.com/articles/844/844673p1.html). Aquaria is described as an "action-oriented, non-linear side-scrolling game that uses an innovative and intuitive mouse control system". Pricing has not yet been announced, but downloadable demo will be available upon release.
Finally, Ambrosia is offering a 10% discount Macworld Special (http://www.ambrosiasw.com/mwsf/) on all products which remains good until January 31, 2008.

I can just foresee, if there are faulty CDMA units, a massive discussion over which of the two companies are the "better" manufacturer with less defects - Foxconn vs. Pegatron. I only bring this up, as I recall heated discussions in the past about how Nokias made in Finland were superior to the ones made in China or how Canada made Blackberries were better than the Mexico made ones. It'll turn into: "Get the model with serials.. XXXXXX made by Foxconn, over the ones with XXXXX from Pegatron" or vice versa.

I posed this on another forum and got nothing back...I'm hoping someone here knows how to remedy this problem. Thanks! :D
This is a question I've been meaning to ask for a while. My internal modem, when I first got my iBook, made the typical dial and handshake sounds when I would dial a connection. I can't remember when it stopped, but it no longer makes a sound when it is dialing.
I'm running an iBook G4 12" 1.2 GHz with 768 MB RAM.
Does this have anything to do with a modem script (I read something about this and it mentioned a modem script, but I don't think it solved the issue for the other user). I checked the settings for the modem in the Network preference pane. The radio button for Sound is set to On.
It might have happened to me after the Tiger upgrade as well. I'm not sure. Could it be a Tiger issue?
Any help anyone can provide is appreciated.
Thanks!

I went to the Apple Store today to get my iPhone 4 replaced due to a yellow screen issue. I showed it to a employee at the Genius Bar. I had a password set and forgot to unlock it for her. The lady didn't ask me for my password, she just simply typed in a 4 digit number. The number went "95??" I didn't see the last two digits. Has anyone else had a similar experience? Anyone want to try and figure out what the passcode is
I don't believe you. You'll have to present some actual evidence. It actually sounds like you're desparate for attention.
Good luck.

I want full DVD resolution. I have since refused to purchase any videos or movies on itunes until I get full DVD quality picture, not crappy 4:3 VGA movies. Was not for this nonsense on Apple's part I would have had a huge collection of music videos by now.

Just a followup: It's back. The service center people reseated a connector, so quite possibly if the people at the store had known this could be the issue, they could have fixed it.

I looked at the Bluetake 500 that you have McGarry...looks pretty good...how much?
I got it at a local store for $50. But I have seen it online for as low as $38-40, plus shipping maybe. I found the best prices on CNET's comparison tool.
eCost (www.ecost.com/ecost/shop/detail.asp?dpno=493694) seems to have them on some sort of promotion that appears to bring the price closer to $30. I say "seems" and "appears" because it involves some sort of savings club membership. Apparently free shipping too. I've never bought from them.

First, get the Dazzle device out of the system. You don't need it for this task at all. It's used for converting analog video to digital video.
Connect your camcorder directly to your Mac using the appropriate Firewire cable.
Turn on your Mac and the camera. Make sure the camera is set to VTR (play mode) and also set to output via the Firewire port (Firewire ports may also be labeled as: iLink, DV, DV I/O and IEEE 1394).
The camera will NOT show up =(mount) on your desktop. However, your chosen NLE app should "see" the camera and be able to capture from it IF you have the correct capture settings for the type of footage you recorded.

Except of course for those who want to listen to music. Touch screen and features are rather useless to me in the car. And the iPod Touch is much too big, compared to my iPod nano.
Has anyone ever explained the meaning of "gross margin" to you?
Sorry.
However, their profit margin (not gross margin) is around 25%. Profit for 2010 was 14 billion, revenue was 65 billion. Operating income was 18.4 billion.
