About what? Steve Jobs is seriously ill, his stepping down has nothing to do with what the iPhone 4S is or isn't.
I'm really not sure what people expected, I don't know what they could have added to it to make people go...

They'll have got a micrometer out and measured it, but ignored the fact that 0.2mm is probably well within the manufacturing tolerance for any iPhone, black or white.

Ok, so having read the "hands on reviews" about Siri and having viewed the keynote....
AWESOME.

It's all bizarre. Apple were once the choice for "Think Different".
Android users come in 2 flavours:
Mint Choc Chip(-on-shoulder), geeks who buy "android" because they want to "think different" and almost invariably...

Basically the A5 processor is dual core version of the A4 processor, give or take the CPU is the same, just with 2 cores. Think of it like having 2 A4 processors inside, simplistically you can say that you have up to 2 times...

Or maybe this is what happens when you leave the "forstallator" in charge of software.....

1.) You ask it to do things with your phone and it does them.*
2.) It also behaves like wolfram alpha.
(* may randomly call contacts/delete calendars**)

I'm still baffled by Cards, quite possibly the strangest product introduction I think I've ever seen.

Me: "What time is it?"
Phone: "Calling xxxx"
It was ok when it worked, but when it didn't you were always left scrambling for the "end call" button.

You'll miss his "iTea" announcement, where you use the app to buy and then get a hot cup of tea delivered to your doorstep. (if you're in the US, it'll even track it for you)

Must have been the #1 requested feature, it can be the only explanation - why else would you develop it, let alone open a "keynote" with it.
So Amazon just forked Android and have now effectively killed the rest of the Android tablet market.
This is brilliant, I'd love to be hearing the conversations going on in Google HQ and other android tablet hardware makers.
Depends what you do with the screen. Up until lion, using Xcode on a 13" MBP was a pain in the ass, to the point of being so frustrating it was unusable.
The full screen mode and the changes in the way spaces work made a massive improvement and turned it the other way and it felt much more...
Re: 2011 MacBook Air 11"
If you have to lug even a 13" MBP about regularly, then you'll realise just how heavy it is. The Air is significantly lighter.
If you have to lug around 2 13" laptops regularly, then you'll definitely realise how heavy they are.
Plus the Air has better resolution...
I've lost count of the number of times I've seen time machine backups get corrupted.
Mounting sparse bundles over a network just doesn't strike me as the best of ideas, even with the AFP extensions that are supposed to prevent these sort of corruptions from happening.
Rysnc over a network...
Just speak slowly and clearly, because you'll be speaking to "virgin India".
Once they sort out the current set of bugs then it'll be good. The hdmi one is a pita. You have to switch the box off and back on again to get rid of the bloody message.
