New Apple Lust Objects for 2010 and onward

well now I'm listening to Breakbeat Radio so I kinda don't care

I applaud Edward's problem-solving

this classic electronic itunes station seems pretty cool, Egyptian Lover and Kraftwerk

whatever I had picked before was really fond of playing me Fun Boy Three songs

was just thinking, apple has three pricing levels for the iphone (usa with contract) which up until today looked like

$200 current iphone
$100 year old iphone
$0 two year old iphone

now they look like

$200 current iphone
$100 iphone C
$0 two year old iphone

next year maybe they look like

$200 current iphone
$100 iphone C
$0 NEW KIND OF CHEAP IPHONE (two y/o iphone in new case)

eh

I am trying to figure out how to pronounce Aio Wireless

ayo

looks like they're discontinuing the 5, I guess that's how they get around not competing with the 5C

so yr choices are

$200 5S
$100 5C
$0 4S

aio technology

if my iPhone 5 breaks what are they gonna replace it with

an iPod nano

iPhone 5 AIO

So what happens to the 5s next year in this scheme? Don't you think it's more likely to be 6/5s/5c?

like they're gonna run out of iPhone 5 refurbs any time soon

they'll replace it with a 5C! it's got a 1.25 MP forward facing camera, and more LTE frequencies!

I'm guessing aftermarket prices will now spike on the black 5

yeah im guessing starting next year there will be no old iphones on the market

i'm looking at a 14 minute ota download here (maybe australia has its own walloservers)

btw not even trying this on the ipad 3 because by all accounts it's horrible

What is supposed to be bad about it! I'm not seeing any issues so far.

5 min to download itunes 11.1, ~30 min for ios 7. nice.

on the ipad 3? oh wow okay.

Seriously. Works fine as far as I can tell.

good news

issues i keep hearing about are-

- keyboard lag (esp. when switching from alpha to numeric)
- wallpaper lag
- spontaneous rebooting
- no transparency in control centre (not technically an issue tbh)

yeah, I have no idea what the problems would be there, the only iPads made since then were only tweaked a little

the betas were a bit laggier

I'm not seeing lag in typing or wallpaper. And thankfully it hasn't spontaneously rebooted. I'll keep an eye out for stuff and report in if things occur.

this is cool! I am easy to please, give me new shiny things. but: wtf @ find my friends still looking like a leather notebook. I use that app like crazy & uggh compared to the other slick stuff.

cheers. i'll wait at least a few days anyway.

What's nuts is that earlier this week I sold two iPhone 4 (not 4S, the three year old 4) for $250 each cash on Craigslist. Granted both were impeccable and I kept the boxes (with untouched chargers, cords, headphones). I had no idea there was still a market for the 4.

got some slowdown earlier which is annoying but on the whole seems a pleasant enough upgrade

need some flattened icons for essential apps tho like stat

wow, really not enjoying ios 7 so far. slow transitions, head-spinny zoom effects, really stupid folders. seriously, the folders suck. and parallax wallpaper is just irritating.

Has anyone done this on a 4s yet? Kind of concerned it will take up a ton of space and slow performance.

been using it on a 4s for months, works fine

I'm on a plain old 4 and it seems fine.

i think the single worst thing about ios 7 is seeing arment and gruber wank themselves to death over it

what do you all think about this ben stratego guy?

No idea how anyone is getting any work done today — so much great stuff to read, so many updated apps to try.

at the end of gruber's most recent post. ugh, idk dude, not everybody's job is slobbering over apple all day so like

I got a lot done today tbh

LOL ios7 is butt ugly

guess ibooks didn't get updated? lol at bookshelf still

back swipe gesture in safari is nice

this update is actually giving me a headache

LOL ios7 is butt ugly

ios 6 is ugly!

everything is ugly except for ilx

all ilx themes are ugly except the ones I like

liveblog ios 7 update: so far i've noticed the apple logo on the boot screen is now all black

the progress bar is now only a thin grey line

wow, so fresh

very doge

a lot of the apps have updated ios7 icons but still feel very ios6-ish, all these bulgey gradients and shadows

Yeah I'll be interested to see how design changes continue to roll out. So far I'm loving the basics of the update.
