Does anyone know if you can view the entire library still and use that "strip bar" across the top where you filter by music, tv shows, etc.....I kind of liked that...MAYBE I'll get used to the new way...but is there a way to make it go back to the old way?
EDIT
This might be premature and I might change my mind, but I dont like the new iTunes at all. It looks like FCP. I'm using it on my PC right now. Maybe the Mac will look better? It's overwhelming looking to me right now.

The iPhones 5 MP camera is better then the competitors 8 MP cameras. If they are on the same quality level with a new 8 MP camera it will be better then the competitors 12 MP camera.
Megapixel numbers are not as important as most people think.
People who are only in love with specs don't want to give the ipad its due.
The device works, because it is optimized for itself, i.e. hardware and software specs are integrated really really well.
It has a great price point and stressing over camera quality is ridiculous, as it is not a camera! Will it be better, yes in the next generation when availability and prices of 8 MP or more fit into what Apple wants to pay for it.
People also don't want to recognize that an ipad is not a laptop. We are IMO about 50% there, but until reliable voice recognition technology replaces a real keyboard, we have to wait.
I always have to laugh when I read about the next ipad killer.
The last ipad killer was actually the ipad2, and that with such a weakly underpowered camera in it.

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!

Some of you are predicting big Beatles sales if they go online. Others claim that the market is gone for those tunes. I'm happy to wait and see who's right, but I wish they'd finally get started so we can find out, rather than see "Beatles on iTunes" continue to be yet another Apple rumor that persists for years.

...all they have to do is limit the control granted via the card..
What? How to do that? This is likely a buffer overflow exploit where a small part of the driver gets overwritten with hacker-incerted code, this code then runs inside the kernel at that point nothing can be done.
They will have to fix the defect that alowed the buffer to overflow. No other option.
This really shows the value of Open Source. So many peopl have loked for this type of stuff in Linux and other OSes that I'm sure most of it is been found and fixed but closed souce drivers are so hard to examine that there could be a hundred more of these waiting to be discovered.

I have no doubt's that this will be resolved in time. In the mean time, I don't have any of the problems that the new IOS 4.3.1 fixes on my Verizon iPhone. ;):apple:
I'm guessing iOS5 (most likely in June) will put them in sync for releases.

Not everyone likes the touchscreens. I would buy a 200GB classic tomorrow. Not everyone wants iOS and apps and games and all that crap on an MP4 player. i know i don't. the iPod touch should go. they already have an iPhone, i want to listen to music with the occasional video on the bus. and with physical buttons i can change the song with the thing in my pocket. I like the UI and the clickwheel. call me old if you like but im 17.
You seem pretty defensive against someone simply stating what they like better. Notice the 'to me' and the statements of product specs (storage) in your previous quote.
Personally - I like the UI of the iOS better than the firmware running on iPods. I feel like it's just like navigating a giant directory - with folders inside of folders inside of folders (which... it is). I feel like I can get to songs faster (and safer) while in the car with iOS - plus since I have an iPhone I don't have to worry about leaving things in the car/getting too hot or cold. Works better for me, maybe not you.
If they were the same price, same capacity - and the iPod Touch couldn't run anything except the iPod app (fw 1.0 days) - I'd still go with the iPod Touch.

I think they mean something along the lines of all the rats are jumping ship, and heading over the mac way. somethings in he air
Something in the air..... yeah, that's people's PCs being chucked out of the window at the news of great new Macs :p
Or perhaps we're finally going to get those flying cars we were promised for year 2000.

I don't know, citizenzen. Tell me: would it have helped the United States to have some country intervene the outcome in our civil war?
I don't think it would have.
I think that (for the most part) nations need to work out these struggles for themselves.

The only time a full version is needed is when a new computer is purchased and then the price for Vista is completely different because of the OEM pricing by the vendor.
Not so much "different" as hidden from the ultimate consumer.
I think you're also forgetting that the current version of OSX is included with every Mac.

This is just stupid. Apple won't follow this fad for two reasons.
Firstly, touch screen 3D doesn't work because it kills the 3D illusion once you touch it and the extra dimension will lead to people confused, "where should i touch??"
Secondly, a group in the UK have developed a portable device that can project a touch-screen hologram onto any surface. far more useful and impressive than the childish concept of 3D.
see it for yourself (thank you stumbleupon :-P)

What were the plans with dealing with the millions of other Americans who've lost their jobs in this last recession?
Oh, that's right, there were no plans. All those people were expected to figure it out for themselves.
I'd suggest that those who's careers are based on maintaining our military can file for unemployment and search the want ads just like everybody else.
So your solution to our money problems is to throw more people onto the unemployment dole. :rolleyes:
I'm all for cutting the military budget but drastic cuts will hurt more than help.
When did we stop doing sane things in this country?

Ummm you guys do realize my post with the Sony picture was to emphasize that no one has done it right...yet. Right? Sony's e-book reader sucks. They all do.
Hence the desire for Apple to pull an iPod on the market.

Why are you guys all against 3D? I think its great, BUT I think its a given that you will be able to turn off the 3D.. And if that is the case then there is no problem really :P

iPad 3 - iPad 3D
I could really see that, with the iPhone 3G (it was actually the 3rd phone) and had 3G.
iPhone 3G is the 2nd gen iPhone.
3GS is the 3rd generation.
nice try tho.

What about AT&T customers? :(
I am also on AT&T for 2 iPhone 4's and my iPad 2 with AT&T 3G (unlimited data); make sure that if you still have your unlimited data plan for your iPhone or iPad not to give it up no matter what :apple:

Does it mean that apple takes your battery back whether you like it or not? Because it might explode?
They "recycle" the casing. As in use it again. They dispose the battery.
Apparently only nine cases of exploding/flammable batteries have been documented.
And if you don't send it back they will bill you. The cost for not returning the defected battery will be stated in the packaging of the replacement.
