Yeah i'm gonna wait for the iPad 4 as well. Once you've used the Retina display the other models just don't cut it; hence why i'm trying to ignore the rMBP as much as possible!

I totally contradicted myself and ordered the 4. My wife is going to take my 3. Daughter can keep the 1 for Netflix.

Hands-on with the iPhone accessory  We've talked about the Owle Bubo before but, despite, it sounding like a raptor…

Random boring question : Is there any real merit in getting the new 13" retina MBP over the current Air 13?

It's basically as a glorified toy for me to play software developer on and for general web use.  Will be carrying about (public transport commuter here.) to an extent so weight is important.  It's only how light the new MBP is made me consider it.

In the house PC still going to be the work horse for games etc so raw horse power is not really a concern.

All input appreciated!

passthestripe, it's a good question.  have you tried a retina screen laptop in a store?  i think it's essential to do that before choosing which model to go for.  personally, after using the retina MBP i find it hard to use other laptops.

Once you've seen retina you won't want to go back. But after nearly bricking my old MacBook this week ill take anything new.

I had a look at the 13 retina, it did look great… But I couldn't justify the extra chunk of change so I just went with the 13 air.  Pretty happy with it, lovely piece of kit!

Now just trying to find a suitable and robust sleeve but not came across any, if anyone has any input then feel free to comment.

anyone ever had a problem (iphon4) with losing their whole address list, just cuz of a dead battery?

battery was dead, charged it and as i´ve turned on the phone again, my whole address list was gone
pics and everything else is still on it though…just my address list! wtf?...

Strange. Did you search for it using the search function? Have you tried a hard reboot? Have you restored from backup yet?

Is the retina display on the Macbook Pro worth the extra $600?

[seanocono]

I love the Retina on my 15" MBP. After using it since June, I have a hard time looking at other screens. That's a really subjective question though.

Anybody try Phillips Hue?
