I don't want a 'magic' magazine, I just want the magazine on my iPad and so I'm happy with Zinio. They want to sell zillions of copies they need to get their subscription rate down to the level of the mail subscriptions and make it easy to get them. Cute movies, animations and the like? Put a link to the web.
Magazine publishers: If you wasting any more resources than just making it an intelligent PDF file you are wasting your time and forcing the price up to the point no one wants your product. Learn from Steve - when doing something new make it build on what came before - people aren't going to get something new and unfamiliar in style or price, especially a much higher price.

i7 920 is 2.66 ghz stock but I have it OC'd to 3.8 ghz.
oh ok nice. yeah you could try to push it to 4.0 ghz. it's always nice to start with a 4 :)
i was waiting for a os x gpu client before i did it. seems much more efficient than cpu folding
well from what i've read, that just isn't the case. GPUs use much more power than CPUs. the most efficient for the points is CPU folding (bigadv). the only advantage GPU folding has is that certain work units are only GPU, so if you are looking to work towards a certain disease, this might mean something to you

Yes, Apple is a kind of Big Brother. They strictly control what people get to do with their devices. Some might call it censorship.
And what does Stewart complain about?
That they got mad at the guy who, well, paid a stranger to get his hands on their property and then even disassembled it?
Imagine losing your iPhone. The guy who finds it doesn't return it and sells it instead. And another guy takes it apart to look inside. You'd be mad, too. ;) Even if it wasn't a super secret candy pooping prototype.

while the volt doesn't look that special or great (the volt based Opel Ampera looks much much better) it isn't a ugly car
have you take a look at the Nissan Juke recently ? i saw one in on the road today and .. it's just as hideous as on pictures
Yep, people buy far uglier vehicles. Honda Accord Crosstour, Nissan Leaf and Juke, any current generation Acura, etc.
And I do find the Volt a good looking vehicle. Although, wasn't a fan of the concept....... Thank goodness it was as aerodynamic as a brick so it couldn't enter production with that front end.

Yes, I agree, smartphones are going to replace dedicated GPS devices.
I use OVI Maps... which is rather good -
* download maps without touching a computer ( map updates are free.. unlike Garmin )
* maps are on the device - no constant internet connection. So Maps still work when no cell coverage.
* traffic warnings
* free turn by turn voice navigation
* city guides etc
On my Nokia phone over a GPS - because its more convienient.
However, Garmin et al will adapt to the competition and will survive. The market will be large enough for quite some time - not everyone will buy iPhone or Android phone.
I think smartphone are already impacting GPS sales. Such premium services that Garmin etc offer such as Traffic will become free for smartphones - these companies have to compete.
I am in agreement with Chaz on this. With Android and iOS having so much built into their portable OS now, I kinda think the days of dedicated GPS devices are going to be limited.
It is sad, but I do see more and more iPhones, and Android devices attached to front windshields were a normal GPS usually goes.
The only reason I feel that way is the likes of Nokia with their already solid mapping available for Symbian and undoubtedly WP7 once it hits, Google Maps and the potential for an Apple designed mapping solution that would be available to literally millions of smartphone users. Not seen nothing from RIM or Palm yet tho.
With Smartphone ownership on the rise, from affordable symbian/android handsets to premium iOS/WP7 and Android handsets, there will be a lot of people out there with a gps solution in their pockets.
Perhaps im jumping the gun but i think it could really affect stand alone units. :)

The day the iPhone was introduced, the Smartphone Market became an iPhone-alike Market, and to produce an iPhone-alike phone, you need access to Apple's patents. That's what Nokia is after, or else it's dead. Making-out with Microsoft doesn't give Nokia everything it needs, and leaves it open to litigation: they say that attack is the best form of defence, so Nokia is just doing what it thinks it needs to do to survive.
I have relatives living in various 3rd-world countries, and even the less-well-off wouldn't buy a 3GS, but they are willing to pay top dollar (or the local eq) for the iPhone4.
Tanker-loads of Nokia faithful are dumping their Nokia phones for iPhones and Blackberrys -- even Android has a long fight ahead of it in these (non-geek/techy) markets.
Any credibility you had went out the window when you blatantly revealed your bias in the first sentence.

so op your from ameria right? here were i live in the uk bisiness have generally leased lines that is dedicated symetric bandwith for them only and its garenteed. here the general costs are for dedicated 10 meg down 10 meg up about �400 a month over copper pairs, or depending where you are about �600 for 100mb down 100mb up dedicated over fiber. id figure out the difference betwwen a eqiv connection in america and your cost of your current curcuit and try budget that in too. 10 meg up 10 meg down will be plenty.
Yes, S. California.
Colo is still cheaper, at least here.
For example, Hurricane Electric offers a FULL CABINET (42U) in San Francisco with 100mbps uplink speed for $600 month.
Ubiquity offers 4U at $125/month, 1/4 cabinet at $475/month both with 100mbit/sec uplink in Los Angeles. 1/2 cabinet at $850/month (about the same as the amount quoted above for a leased line alone) but with 1000 mbit/sec uplink). I don't imagine the OP would need more than 1/4 cabinet (10U), and could probably fit this into 4U.
Note "bandwidth" quota is much lower (1mbit/sec for the 4U, 5mbit/sec for the 1/4 cabinet) than the uplink speed. You can burst to 100 or 1000, but, of course, if you sustained that rate constantly, you'd be nicked for the extra bandwidth. (It's actually rather more complicated than that.) In the case of the OP, it doesn't seem likely he'd exceed the base charge. Look up "95'th percentile billing", which is standard, at least here in the U.S.
For the OP, the existing connection seems to make sense, since he already has the leased line, presumably to support in-house user's Internet access.
However, for others that might have a server need that would not be easily met by their existing leased line, (or might violate terms of service) colo might make much more sense.
The reason it is so much cheaper is because it takes the leased line completely out of the equation. There's just an Ethernet cable to another room. The expensive "last mile" is eliminated.
I've quoted some U.S. prices, but I'd assume the economies are similar in Europe. Delivering bandwidth to your business costs a lot more than delivering bandwidth to a data center.

That's a bit disingenuous. Yes there are editors who use FCP. And yes many Avid editors also have an FCP license on their laptop or home computer as well. Why not, it's cheap and can use third party hardware.
When you compare actual employed editors who work in Film and Television, Avid is still king. Apple skews the numbers by comparing the amount of software sold, but it's better to look at the projects completed and see what tools were used.
The question is whether this new release and their strategy is going to continue to draw working editors away from Avid or just continue to be a great prosumer video editing tool that has gotten easier to use.
You can't evaluate the product based on an Apple pitch if you rely on your editing software for a living. How do you know it kicks out and accurate EDL? How do you know if it still kicks out solid OMF files to your sound designer?
Avid, Final Cut, Premiere, they are all just tools and you have to use the right tool for the job.
Avid is for mac as well, in fact it used to be mac only. CS5 is also for mac, the only major editing programs that aren't for mac are Sony Vegas and Grass Valley Edius, which don't have a major market share. So a 49% figure is probobaly accurate if you include the people running Avid and Adobe on Macs.

[Macworld reports (http://www.macworld.com/2006/11/firstlooks/rosetta/index.php) that based on their benchmarks, Apple's Rosetta PowerPC emulation technology for Intel Macs...
Please...
"Rosetta" is Apple's cute marketing name for their rebranding of Transitive's "QuickTransit" technology".
http://www.transitive.com/
So, of course, Apple and Transitive engineers have been working together to improve the performance.
But, please, don't call it "Apple's technology" unless you say "technology that Apple is licensing". Lots of interesting stuff comes from outside 10700 N. De Anza Blvd, Cupertino, CA (the real address for 1 Infinite Drive). Which, btw, I've only driven by 3 times this week...

I continue to be amazed by the number of students at my community college that have iPhones. These are students who for the most part are struggling to make ends meet, yet were willing to spend their limited cash that way. There are at least two or three students with iPhones in each of my classes; two years ago, I didn't see any -- and mine was a curiosity to them.

After living in Japan for three (some time ago) years several things amazed me. Japanese men treat Japanese women like second class people. The vending machines served hot food, hot drinks, cold drink and highly caffeinated beverages and these machines were on almost every block. Lastly a form of prostitution is legal in certain Provinces. Lastly almost every Japanese person I saw were absolutely in love with sea food.
It doesn't surprise me that Japanese people don't loot, etc.

Is there any benefit of HDMI if you won't be using the HD-DVD's, and you only have a 720P TV?
Even with HDDVD I don't see a benifit. Component is fine. The only advantage HDMI gives is it carries digital audio as well. This is not that big of a deal since the Xbox also has optical out.
HDMI is DVI with audio. The resolution will stay the same, quality will stay the same. HDMI is easier to connect but if your already running with component there is no need to go changing everything up for something thats going to improve it very little, if at all

Maybe, when you rank the individual product models. But when you rank the underlying platforms, iOS is no longer leading the pack. Android has taken over the lead and that was to be expected, because Google did the smart thing: Divide and rule. Everybody can build Android gadgets, but only Apple builds iOS devices. And the systems that everybody can use have ALWAYS dominated the market. Just remember Windows vs Mac OS or VHS vs Betamax and Video 2000.
maybe, when you only rank platforms running on phones, but when you throw in other devices (tablets, iPods), the story changes. iOS leads the pack once again. (with a 59% lead over Android).
