      Anyone else think I've got about a snowballs chance in hell of Jody letting me get a $18k Mac Pro?

              Yeah I have not even had a minute to try it yet but am excited about that and all other features I prviously did not have… Like reception! Well, iPhone 4 reception anyhow. Just glad to be off that 3G network. It was awful. Was skeptical about it considering all the chaos surrounding it's launch but I was assured by my boy that it was the best option at the moment in my situation.
              As for the iPad, still not sold on it yet. I am fine with my phone and laptop anytime anywhere so until I am convinced otherwise, that's how it will remain. Gimmicks don't do it for me...

                I've been with Apple for 10 years, ipad is the real deal. Kids will all have them under their arms in 3 years - carrying books to school is history, mark my words  🙂

                      I don't think ATT has started rolling out their 4g network yet…

                        And from what I can tell, the iPhone 4 is not an LTE (4g) phone

                          Oh well I am wrong. Feels like a whole new network! I do not keep up with phones or the technology surrounding them as much as I would like but thank you for the knowledge/ heads up.

                              Ahh, for some reason I read it as MacBook Pro not Mac Pro. Now it completely makes sense as to how you could get to $18k.

                                No sweat. I had a coworker think the same thing because of the iPhone 3g vs the iPhone 4. Sounds like it's on the new LTE network

                                It's highly likely that you're getting a better reception with better tech. I would give you a better answer than that but I don't know much about iPhones (I used to be into cell phones as much as I'm into jeans and knives and ecigarettes now)

                                I suspect that the iPhone 4 for Verizon will be compatible with the 4g network that they're rolling out in the 4th quarter/1st Q 2011

                                    If they come out with an iPad with cellular connection for data/cell (I would use my bluetooth, not hold it to my ear), I would consider it

                                    The smartest design I saw for a tablet computer was a concept computer I saw on a website: it's two tablet computers held together with a plastic clamshell, so you could have the convenience of a laptop with the keyboard space not occupying the screen, plus having the screen angled while you type. If you wanted to grab a tablet PC, you would just unlock it from the plastic clamshell. Pretty neat.

                                    Don't ask me where I saw that, it was one of my geek websites and I'm sure I'm never going to find it again. Those websites are a pain in the ass to navigate. Prob gizmodo

                                      Short rant for no good reason…  Let me first say that  I love most Apple products.  I use them every day at work and home.  Seriously, I own way too many of them and have for years.

                                      I am, however, to the point of frustration with my iPhone where I want to smash it into little bits and pay to get out of my contract and get a different phone.  Ever since iOS 4 it's been a piece of sh*t.  No matter what I try, or what support suggests, no change.  At this point it feels like a forced upgrade to go to a 4g and I don't want to give them any more of my money.

                                      Giles - Don't let this shade your interest in getting a desktop.  Through work, home use, & family, we've gone through dozens of machines and they've all been great.

                                        I have just become a victim of this. My problems did not start until the same time. Granted I had the 3G but still…  I understand where you are coming from.
