New Apple Lust Objects for 2010 and onward

hay dudes i hav posted this on the tumblr thread but i feel like theres prob more nerdz here

theres a tech bro who has a tumblr thats design is super minimal - theres no title just a little house at the top of the page you can click to get home - what tumblr is that

plz help ty

so if I were to buy iPad apps and download them onto this thing, and then sync it with my computer (to wipe everything out from the old owner) i can redownload what i bought later for free, assuming i use the same iTunes account, right?

Sorry for e n00b questions

Yup

when are the new ipads likely? jan or april?

My money's on the latter.

Last year they were announced in Jan and came out in April.

Last week I read reports that they're due to be shipped to Apple in the next few weeks. I don't know how quickly Apple plans to distributes these things (or even if those reports are accurate, of course) but I suspect Apple intends to sell metric arseloads of iPads next year, and I have a feeling it'll distribute them through telcos with contracts and bundled data plans to increase penetration. It'll need to stockpile like crazy and explode onto the market in April imo.

they don't tend to announced far ahead of release unless for new products tho, is that right? think I'll pick up an ipad 2 if only for football manager and sky sports mobile.

anyone got experience of the latter on an ipad? does it even work on an ipad? I know they've disabled TV out on the iphone versh

Last year they were announced in Jan and came out in April.

i'm guessing that this is probably what's going to happen again this year

I don't think they'll announce that far ahead of the ship dates this year - it would risk gutting the iPad market for a few months while people held out for the new model, which wasn't a factor last year.

good call

Apple announces everything with a cell radio early because it needs to get govt approval and therefore can't keep it a secret. But yeah, not three months early like last year.

Yes, a repeat in 2011 seems very unlikely. I was just mentioning it because I've heard some people (understandably) use the iPhone's yearly update schedule as a guide for when the next iPad will come out, but treat January as the iPad year zero, when in fact it didn't arrive till April.

(but everything seems much more leaky these days so perhaps if people have actuallly heard of shipments ready for January it really will be that soon.)

og iphone was announced in jan to ship in june, if I recall correctly

so what will the update look like? camera?

cameras def, hope it gets a better screen

definitely needs an api

otm^

ipapi

Based purely on common sense:

- front-facing camera: almost certainly (facetime evangelism ahoy)
- rear-facing camera: probably
- 512 Mb RAM or higher: definitely
- higher-res screen: probably not, sadly (retina screens in that size are ridiculous atm, and I can't see Apple jumping up a small amount for one or two years)
- flat bottom: very likely
- a 7" model: nah

comes w/ complimentary bag of coke

i just inherited a first-gen macbook!! the speed improvement from my g4 is like, whoa

i can see why apple is moving toward ipads, etc - there simply isn't a need (right now) for computers that are much faster than a 1st-gen macbook. honestly. CS5 starts within a second or two. it plays HD video flawlessly. i'm in looove

Mac App Store is a bit disappointing.

Shocking!

I don't know where else etc etc

It's like John Gruber guest-blogging for Carles.

That's fantastic.

There should be an actual physical punishment for people who can't design interfaces properly.

are you fucking serious?

“let’s make the app look like an old wooden-“

oh sorry, i cut you off because i punched you in the cock.

So, twenty-five minutes to go...

white cdma iphones

did i spoil everything?

my understanding is that on verizone you won't be able to go on the web and call at the same time (I never do this anyway but I could see not being able to do it being annoying); any chance that this is something that could ultimately be fixed with software or are we going to have to wait for new iphones to do that?

That would be good, if CDMA was only available in white, and vice versa.

U GUYS ITS PURPLE IPHONES << HOT TIP

they should make Edge-only phones in mint-green, and budget GPRS phones in hot pink

akm, it'll be fixed when Verizon upgrades their towers to a completely new technology, as far as I know. That'll require yet another phone, though. I believe CDMA just doesn't let you do that.

IPHONE FLIP PHONES 2 BE ANNOUNCED TODAY

verizon is supposed to be rolling out 4g this year as well, is that at all related? this crap gets confusing to me quickly.

Main hash:

Verizon's Lowell McAdam is on-stage.
- Setting context with CES and the convergence of data, broadband, and video. "Today two innovators are coming together."
- Talking about FiOS, new 4G LTE network rolling out. "We debated calling this 6G" - responding to other carriers such as AT&T rebranding their HSPA+ service as "4G".
- Today announcing that the iPhone 4 will be available on Verizon early next month.
- Has all the features you expect: FaceTime, Retina display, 5-megapixel camera with HD video, custom A4 chip, etc.
- Verizon's Dan Mead on stage to talk about launch details.
- Verizon employees getting the iPhone this week. Ramping unprecedented supply in inventory system.
- Talking about network preparations...have been building in capacity to handle the coming surge.
- Current Verizon customers can pre-order beginning February 3rd. Available to all at Verizon and Apple stores on February 10th.
- Pricing is $199 for 16 GB, $299 for 32 GB. Can also act as Wi-Fi hotspot for up to five devices.

how much per month is really all I care about. att is absurd.

This shit needs to happen for everybody. Fukc o2.

If it's anything like the UK, the carriers plans' will be so close price-wise as to make it not worth switching.

lte on this shit?

no

yeah since it's not 4G I'm trying to decide between getting one of these or the HTC Thunderbolt. they haven't said when that's actually being released though.

I'll probably get this. And if it feels slow, I'll upgrade to the LTE iPhone 5 that'll come out a few months later, at a great cost, or just wait it out for 2 years or until it breaks. Thunderbolt looks cool, but I use my girlfriend's HTC Android phone, and I find it annoying. Maybe a newer/better android phone wouldn't make me want an iPhone so bad, but who knows.

think im gonna wait for iphone 5
