If it was any other store I would say no but Apple are famously accommodating (and probably more so if you've just spent thousands on a Mac Pro).
Then again, if you can afford said thousands, just buy the bluetooth keyboard separately and keep the wired as a spare!

Hi folks,
I'm stump on a pageControl problem.
I made a simple View Based Application with a pagescroll through several images. This work fine especially when you click left of right of the pageControl.
The problem is the app crashes with a 'SIGABRT' error when click on the pageControl in another app with the same code. The difference is this view is called through a TAB Bar while the other isn't. The crash goes away when I remove the 'action sent' on the pageControl but obvious, I need it to call the changePage method.
I'm not sure if it's a delegate issue or not.
I'll keep the code short. Thanks.

Deal pending with a member, just waiting for payment.
Edit: Just received payment from sycho, so hopefully when he completes the project, he will post some pics.

I'm freakin sick of the ITMS. :mad:
I love iTunes and my iPod, but purchasing music that can only be put on an iPod is crap. There may be a better player out later which I want to go to and then *poof* my ITMS purchased tracks are crap.

It's (significantly) cheaper.
It's better.
'Nuff said.

As some of you will know, I switched to Macs last year with the purchase of my 12" PowerBook. Now I've finally got myself an iPod. It's a regular 4G iPod which was purchased before the iPod Photo was introduced, but I'm not bitter because I could never afford one of those beauties anyway.
Apart from a creaky old tape walkman that I had 10 years ago and hardly ever used, this is my first portable music player. I never really got with the whole MP3 thing until I decided to import all my music onto iTunes when I got my first Mac last year. I'm very pleased with the AAC format and now regular buy music from the iTunes Music Store too.
Now, my brother got a 3G 20GB iPod last year but I confess I never really spent much time with it (probably because I was too excited about my Mac and knew that I'd only want one for myself if I used it!). And now, in a sort of reciprocal promotion agreement with my brother (which this time sees him getting an iBook: my first person switched ;) ), I finally got my iPod.
Packaging
Good old Apple quality with lovely tilting box approach. The box is essentially the same as my brother's 3G iPod box, other than it now has the brightly coloured shilouetted images of that iPod ad campaign all over the outer sleeve. Nice, and instantly recognisable as iPod.
Contents
Ok, so I knew that I wouldn't be getting the dock with my model, but, as far as I know, the inclusion of the dock is the only difference between the 20 and 40GB models (other than the obvious price, capacity and slight size differences). It's a bit disappointing that I have to pay �30 to get the remote that came with my brother's 3G version. Mine now includes a USB cable as well as a FireWire one, which is good for the PC users I suppose. There is no 4-6pin FireWire adaptor or little plastic clip to protect the dock connector port any more though. And the lack of any basic case is near criminal. I guess these are some cost-cutting measures and I guess I shouldn't complain that this iPod was a lot cheaper than my brother's 3G 20GB model last year.
First impressions
It always surprises me how small the iPod is when you see it. The 4G model looks neater than the older model in my opinion, with a clean easy-access wheel instead of the four button line arrangement. The screen also looks a lot nicer and sharper than shots shown on the Apple iPod website.
Setting up
Since all my music is already on my Mac, filling the iPod up was simple - just plug in using the FireWire cable and it all automatically syncs (after product registration). iSync was a breeze too - and I have never had to use this program until now. Once it was ready, I just had to eject the iPod and then plug in the headphones.
Using the iPod
Well, I can say that I have never heard such a good sound out of any headphones ever, especially little in-ear types. All my music is encoded in 128kbps AAC and it sounds immaculate. I won't ever bother with Apple Lossless. So, the sound is brilliant and the controls are very easy too. The menus are easy to navigate, but it would be nice if the LCD display had a slightly better response time - scrolling menus causes a slight shimmering effect, but it's nothing really to worry about. Also, with a mass of artists and songs like I have got, it can become quite tiresome when you have to scroll your thumb through about 200 rotations to navigate huge lists.
I noticed that occassionally there are small pauses when you try to skip through lots of songs quickly, but I'll just put this down to technological limitations as it has to access the hard drive. It's not a problem. What is a bit annoying though is the slight pause between tracks which is not great on albums that are designed to flow continuously. The iTunes crossfade option is not available on the iPod, or I have yet to find it.
The extra options, such as calender and contacts, are useful, although you can only view all your data. Maybe, they could release a little mini keyboard add-on that would allow you to type your own notes. (I could see it now: "World's first novel written on an iPod"). I tried out the notes feature by converting my CV into a text file and placing it on there to view. It's good, other than the fact it seems to get chopped off (i.e. iPod can only view the first so many words of a file). The games are ok, but unlikely to rival my GameBoy Color. The Music Quiz is a nice little option though.
Verdict
Overall, I'm very pleased with the iPod and can begin to see why it's so popular. Put simply, it works. It plays music very very well, and this is important because it's the main purpose of the device. It's easy to use and battery life is pretty good. I'm still on my first charge. I've had none of those problems I've heard about - no crashes and no interference or static noises. The best thing about the iPod is that is does exactly what it says it's supposed to do, and in a neat, stylish and small package. Nice.

How can you expect OSx to install applications to an Android phone?
If it works on windows then the installer is written for Windows and obviously isn't going to work on oOSx.

podBooks are what it's referred to on the site. although they only have 2, it's a nice start. maybe they should release harry potter 6 on the ipod. it;s going straight to mine anyway.

The small adapter is required to power the drive. miniSAS is data only, so you still need power.
The miniSAS cable connects the controller with the hard drives.
I see, thanks. So I take it without these adapters I can't use any 3rd party RAID solution for HDD's in the four internal bays as by default the hard drives in those bays just connect to the internal PCB channels and SATA power which are both located on the backplane? but with the adapter (for power only) it creates some space causing the HDD to be not plugged into the DATA PCB channels, thus allowing to connect the SAS cables from the controller into the hard drive sata ports.

As with all Apple computers purchased just before the release of a new OS, a drop in disk will be found in older models still on shelves after the release and you will be given an opportunity to get a free or severely discounted copy of the new OS if purchased in Apple's determined timeframe. I bought a Mac Mini about 30 days before Snow Leopard came out and was able to get SL for free.

I bought the origianal Bose SoundDock when it was first released and have Been in love with it ever since. I also bought the Bose Companions and love them just as much. If I were you I would try and eventually purchase both, you won't regret it. But buy the companion speakers first. That way you have the Bose quality for you music plus films and gaming. Then when the funds are available treat yourself to the SoundDock!

if it's not in .profile, execute this command to determine which shell you're running:
% echo $SHELL
and check out the corresponding startup file. e.g. if you're running tcsh, have a look in .tcshrc
edit: also look in .login

Did anyone else buy a new song? It seemed to me that when I picked up the new Bare Naked Ladies album it downloaded a lot faster and multiple songs at a time now.
Yes! There is now a downloads manager. When you were downloading, a link appeared in the left bar labeled "Downloads" or something like that. I clicked on it, and there were several downloads happening at once in there, not one at a time as previously.
The one negative effect: you don't necessarily get Track 1 first, then 2, etc, as you would before. So, on a slow connection, you can't just wait for the first song to download then start playing to listen to the whole album ...
Off-topic: did you notice they messed up the Are Me track numbers? Just "15" and "16" on the second disk (the bonus tracks) listed "of 27" instead of 14 (like the rest of the songs) or 16 (the actual number of tracks on the "disk").
