that is correct, lag∞n. I mostly meant in terms of end result, not in terms of setup

SD card reader adapter in ipad, wacky

space dokken (Edward III), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 17:52 (eleven years ago) link

Been a while since Apple surprised anyone at one of these events. Was anyone predicting a new new iPad with A6X chip?

Alba, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 17:53 (eleven years ago) link

end result you only have one drive, unacceptable comparison! (fwiw my set up is the same as yrs)

tiny ipad looks awes

stet, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 17:53 (eleven years ago) link

space dokken (Edward III), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 17:54 (eleven years ago) link

wtf at such a retooled iPad already, those dicks

* throws 3rd gen iPad at ground *

ɥɯ ︵ (°□°) (mh), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 17:54 (eleven years ago) link

no, there is a 4g, *and* a mini

stet, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 17:54 (eleven years ago) link

pixel density is not as good as iPad 4rd/4th gen?
1024 x 768 resolution

boo to iPad mini

ɥɯ ︵ (°□°) (mh), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 17:56 (eleven years ago) link

really?! laaaaaaaaaame

Spottie_Ottie_Dope, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 17:56 (eleven years ago) link

when are they going to release an iPad that you can slide inside of a larger iPad

Gandalf’s Gobble Melt (DJP), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 17:57 (eleven years ago) link

yeah non-retina screen

"All iPad software just works" … with tiny text that gives you eyestrain?

Alba, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 17:57 (eleven years ago) link

ok I'm confused now brb buying a surface

space dokken (Edward III), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 17:57 (eleven years ago) link

Does it have the same number of pixels as a pre-retina iPad, just in a smaller space?

Alba, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 17:58 (eleven years ago) link

yeah, that is what they're saying

ɥɯ ︵ (°□°) (mh), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 17:58 (eleven years ago) link

That's got to be close to retina, then?

Alba, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 17:59 (eleven years ago) link

I dunno, someone do the ppi calculation for me here

ɥɯ ︵ (°□°) (mh), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 17:59 (eleven years ago) link

Yeah, and the pixels were way too large on the original iPad, so I think this is going to be good if not retina.

stet, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 17:59 (eleven years ago) link

ok I gotta get on a conference call, liveblog for me will ya

space dokken (Edward III), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:00 (eleven years ago) link

my question is whether that new version of iTunes is coming out yet, and if it is awesome or what

ɥɯ ︵ (°□°) (mh), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:00 (eleven years ago) link

10 hr battery

stet, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:01 (eleven years ago) link

LIGHTNING CONNECTOR WHAT IS THIS OUTRAGE

stet, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:01 (eleven years ago) link

Anyway, that's what the rumours said and it makes sense – then it can easily run iPad software without any rescaling. But, as I say, it may not be very readable or usable.

Alba, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:01 (eleven years ago) link

(readable or usable on some existing apps, I mean – not for ones written for it)

Alba, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:02 (eleven years ago) link

The UI is still so uninspiring with those little icons so spaced out and all. Needs an update pretty bad.

Spottie_Ottie_Dope, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:02 (eleven years ago) link

video just showed it side-by-side w/iPad 2 -- I think it's going to be fine, readability wise

stet, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:03 (eleven years ago) link

iOS UI needs something new and innovative, yeah

ɥɯ ︵ (°□°) (mh), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:04 (eleven years ago) link

I doubt iPad mini is going to scale the text the same was as original iPad. You'll end up with fewer characters per line?

ɥɯ ︵ (°□°) (mh), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:04 (eleven years ago) link

might be talking out my ass here

ɥɯ ︵ (°□°) (mh), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:04 (eleven years ago) link

no, it's exactly the same layout.

stet, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:04 (eleven years ago) link

so: http://www.apple.com/itunes/new-itunes/

well if it isn't old 11 cameras simon (gbx), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:05 (eleven years ago) link

going to stick to every other generation, sounds like I'll be buying an iPhone 5s and iPad gen 5

ɥɯ ︵ (°□°) (mh), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:05 (eleven years ago) link

gbx that's been up for a couple months, they have to be saying WHEN right

ɥɯ ︵ (°□°) (mh), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:06 (eleven years ago) link

"October"

ɥɯ ︵ (°□°) (mh), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:06 (eleven years ago) link

ohhhhhhh, i just saw it for the first time cuz you mentioned "new itunes"

it'll prob be announced today

well if it isn't old 11 cameras simon (gbx), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:06 (eleven years ago) link

Starts at $329

stet, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:06 (eleven years ago) link

Yes, if it's the same layout I don't see how text isn't going to be uncomfortably small on some existing apps (that don't allow control over font size).

Alba, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:07 (eleven years ago) link

joy division?

shaane, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:07 (eleven years ago) link

... are they completely removing the list view from iTunes???????????

Gandalf’s Gobble Melt (DJP), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:07 (eleven years ago) link


iPad mini starts at $329, iPad 2 at $399, iPad fourth-gen at $499
(apparently no longer offering third-gen iPad)

basically 3rd gen was a between-generations blip, sounds like
I guess I own an iPad 2s

ɥɯ ︵ (°□°) (mh), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:07 (eleven years ago) link

so wait, they're still selling the ipad 2 but not the ipad 3 eh

Author ~ Coach ~ Goddess (s1ocki), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:08 (eleven years ago) link

that price is too high to kill Fire/Nexus

stet, Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:08 (eleven years ago) link

iPad 2 is for old people and kids I guess, it's the cut-rate iPad

ɥɯ ︵ (°□°) (mh), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:08 (eleven years ago) link

live tiles on windows phone are cool, but also kinda necessarily too big and generic looking, and icons are meaningful in their own way too, theres a balance between wanting to give people a feed of infos and letting them deal w/the program they want, not really sure what the best solution is

--bob marley (lag∞n), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:09 (eleven years ago) link

uh mh i HAVE an ipad 2

Author ~ Coach ~ Goddess (s1ocki), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:09 (eleven years ago) link

I meant for people buying them TODAY, s1ockster

ɥɯ ︵ (°□°) (mh), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:09 (eleven years ago) link

ipad3's main improvement was the retina display, right, and maybe a performance bump? so it makes sense to just have the ipad4 supplant it, and leave the ipad2 as the low-end version

well if it isn't old 11 cameras simon (gbx), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:09 (eleven years ago) link

i also have an ipad2 u_u

well if it isn't old 11 cameras simon (gbx), Tuesday, 23 October 2012 18:10 (eleven years ago) link
