Are we under the assumption that the Lion upgrade will be $29?
I haven't been around for a release past Snow Leopard so I'm not sure what to expect.
No. Normal price is around $129.

I'd rather read normal book. Screens will make your eyes cry.
I agree. I have already lost good eyesight thanks to laptops, computers, blackberries, ipods and the last thing I need is another small device to read off of.

so I see we're back to iOS Rumours again...
iOS 4.3.1 being released is not a rumor, its a fact.
and here are some MacRumors FAQ:
http://guides.macrumors.com/Help:MacRumors_FAQ
Why does a "Mac rumors" site have so many stories about iPods and iPhones and iPads?
Applerumors.com is an alias of this site, and more correctly describes the purpose of the site, to provide up-to-date news and rumors about Apple Inc. and its products.
MacRumors was established before Apple expanded its business from computers to the digital music, mobile phone, and tablet markets and added products and services as varied as Apple TV, the iTunes Store, and MobileMe.
The site is still called MacRumors because the name is so well-known and "market branded" with millions of visitors every month.
Our news and rumors will continue to reflect Apple's business, wherever that takes us. We also cover stories of widespread interest to our regular readers, such as news and speculation about major software developers and third-party product and service vendors closely associated with Apple or competing with Apple.
Get used to it.

The new version of the Harman/Kardon Soundsticks III has a white light in the sub-woofer instead of blue.
That is very interesting & thanks for the info & links. :)

Sorry, I've walked into this discussion a little late in the day so my apolofies if this has been brought up already - won't this make the gap in specs between the MacBook and the MacBook Pro too close for comfort? If I was in the market for a Pro, I'd expect to see a significant differential in performance between the Macbook and my premium product. I wouldn't see the graphics card/RAM capacity/backlit keyboard etc etc as being enough to make me go for it unless the MacBook was crippled in some other way...

a move to text based mediums would be great. It's easy to see that increases in technology should lead to increasingly technically difficult entertainment (hence ipod -> photo -> video), but it's not about the technology. It's about the entertainment of it and it's suitablility to the medium (ipod).
And in the hightech, fast paced world we live in, books, magazines, and newspapers are a welcome change and a fantastic form of entertainment, as they have been for centuries. Combining written text with the technology in the form of screens you want to read on all day long would be an excellent advance. It would be very cool if the ipod got wifi capabilities and you could download print media from ITMS and work RSS into the ipod too.
Imagine- wherever you go, the ipod finds internet access and updates itself automatically, and allows you to purchase books whenever you like. Fit the whole library in your pocket if you like.
The clincher is going to be the screen, though. Particularly because nothing is nicer than reading outside on a sunny day, but LCDs tend to suck at that. Also important would be wireless capabilities- could it use phone networks for internet access? Speeds wouldn't be a problem for text.
mmm, now if only all the rumors come together in one device without it becoming muddled or oversized, this could be spectacular.

These are the end times. We'll know it is when MS makes a good product again.
* Microsoft Windows 2008R2 SP1 is great.
* Microsoft App-V and Med-V both works amazing.
* Windows 7 isn't that bad either (though I HATE that glassy Windows look.)

First off, I don't think there will be an iPhone with LTE until 2012. The reason being is that the battery life will suck and there will not be enough coverage for most people.
Second, would you rather have an iPhone 4 or a new LTE iPhone with crappy battery life? I'll take the iPhone 4 all day long.

Am I the only one who thinks the multiplayer stinks? (team slayer) :o
There's no guns to switch, the jet pack is a total crap I'll just fly around and you can't shoot me and you can't kill me because there is no rocket launcher or laser. Am I missing something?

And we wonder why this country is broke.
Flat tax across the board. I love Apple, but when a company can spend billions to open a plant in another country just to skirt taxes, there is a problem.
Exactly. Our economy did not go down the crapper because of lack of manufacturing...but it certainly doesn't help.
How is it that in THIS ECONOMY the US Gov't can't entice Apple/Foxconn/whoever to build here in the US?! Come on...you're telling me that the US Gov't either said a)nope...not gonna budge...our policies/rules are the same or b)here's our best offer (yet it was still much worse than opening in Brazil?!)
$12 Billion is a lot of money for a company opening a manufacturing plant.
As for your tax comment...I've always wondered and firmly believe that 100% of all US citizens should pay the exact same tax rate. Whites don't pay differently than blacks right? Catholics don't pay more than Muslims right? Aren't we all supposed to be "equal" in this nation? Make the darn tax rate something universal like 20% and every SINGLE YEAR we all know exactly what we're paying and the gov't knows exactly how much they're getting. Budget problems and crying will be basically wiped out.

Does anyone know what the formatted capacities are of each (2 gig, 4 gig, 8 gig).
I can't find where I read it, but somewhere it looked like the formatting ate up 600 mb of space - YIKES!
Can anyone please clarify this, confirm, refute? Thanks!
You don't lose too much to formatting, you "lose' space because computers incorrectly use GB as a storage term instead of GiB.
Take the capacity in GB, multiply it by 0.93 to give you GiB (which the computer will report as GB even though using an SI prefix "giga" is inappropriate for a binary measurement) and that will give you the capacity. Anything lost beyond the initial 7% of the drive is due to formatting. On a regular HDD the difference isn't much but on an iPod it's a fair bit more due to the OS, built-in applications and stuff like that.
An 8GB iPod, if nothing was loaded on it (ie, just a blank 8GB HDD) would report a capacity of ~7.44GB on the computer. It should report 7.44GiB. Don't worry, you still get the 8x10^9 bytes you paid for, it's just a stupid quirk of all computers that they report binary measures in SI units.
8GB = ~7.44GiB. But your computer will say 7.44GB which lends the illusion of lost space.

I don't know the answer to question one, but the answer to the second question is yes. On top of that, the rate of conviction of blacks is higher.
It was ONE question, not a first and a second one. Whatever somebody answers to only the second half of it, is totally meaningless as long as the answer to the first half is not "yes".

Just ordered a silver 4GB with inscription for my girlfriend. It's her birthday present (from last month) and she got to choose the colour herself... :)
Ordered a Tucano Second Skin Guaina for my MacBook at the same time to save a buck on shipping... ;)
Now that the nanos look (and presumably feel) like the minis I might be tempted to get a nano, and not just a new battery, whenever my 1G green mini's battery decides to quit... a green 4GB nano would be a perfect replacement...

Not quite sure why anyone thinks this is a big deal, or would even want it. 3G or Wifi. I mean, do you need an OS update so badly you can't wait until you can just plug it into a computer and have it done in a few minutes? :confused:
Not being sarcastic, just think it is kind of a totally useless "feature". Now wireless sync on the other hand is something that would be nice for daily sync, backup etc.

"switchers" ... plain and simple :D
Buyer satisfaction with other Apple products is clearly filtering down into Mac sales. This trend will only continue to strengthen.
let's hope so.
more money may yield greater innovation.
