    The iPhone has gone from 0% market share in 2007 to 17.25% in 2010. Based on my projections they will reach 100% market share by 2024. That about sums up how ridiculous this article is.

    Thees predictions are looking 4 years ahead. 4 years ago the iPhone was not even shipping yet! I dare anyone to accurately predict the tech world 4 years in advance. The history of technology seems to be more than anything else dominated by failed predictions. Remember a few years ago when Microsoft predicted that a typical computer running Windows Vista would operate at 6GHz? They failed to even see one year ahead of time when Intel and others would hit the power wall.

    Microsoft is expected to recommend that the "average" Longhorn PC feature a dual-core CPU running at 4 to 6GHz; a minimum of 2 gigs of RAM; up to a terabyte of storage; a 1 Gbit, built-in, Ethernet-wired port and an 802.11g wireless link; and a graphics processor that runs three times faster than those on the market today.

    It's like those audiophiles who argue endlessly about if gold plated or silver plated speaker wire sounds better.

    true, but there is a parralel could be drawn between audiophiles and mac "zealots".


    and its fiber optic vs copper plated. its the rca connectors taht would be gold or silver plated, and yes, gold sounds better, transfers signal better.


    my two cents :)

    You know what's sleazy? Working with a partner while secretly copying that partner's work to create a competing product.

    Microsoft did this to Apple with Windows. Google did this to Apple with Android. And Samsung did this with their phone/tablet designs and their UI overlay.

    The Beatles did this to Apple, oh wait, they had Apple Records and the Apple logo for over 5 years before Apple Computer existed. But I'm sure that is overlooked.

    I'd like to know where this idea that "many have tried" to create viruses and/or malware for OSX comes from. How do you know what people have done or tried?
    That comes from ten years of experience. Ten years of pitiful "attacks" on OS X making the news and being quickly followed by "researchers" warning us that we need to buy their AV software. Many have tried, and we have witnessed their many failures.
    And this idea that nothing can be done on the Mac until a virus or other malware exploit shows up on a news site is absurd. There are plenty of tools out there, for instance, to point out dangerous web sites that could be a threat to a computer. Most OSX users wouldn't bother to install one if one was offered to them because they believe themselves invulnerable. So why worry about visiting a malware site? Some exploits are potentially cross-platform (adobe flash, for example). Again, I say most OSX users are far too comfortable in a foolish belief that they are not in danger from anything out there.
    It's a simple cost benefit analysis. The maximum possible benefit of AV software isn't worth the cost in time and money. As for Flash, it's basically just a method for turning your computer into a television commercial, so you're much better off using Click to Flash (http://clicktoflash.com/) than AV software. At least with that you can avoid the commercials!

    According to the Yahoo news article, Apple was Samsung's second-largest client in 2010 after Sony Corp and was responsible for $142 billion (4%) of Samsung's revenues last year.



    So Yahoo would have us believe that Samsung's revenues last year were in the region of $3.5 TRILLION???? LOL

    Tell me they were responsible for 4% of a $142B total ($5.7B) and I'd have a much easier time believing it.


    edit: Ahh, seems like I was just beaten to it.

    Chrome backed radio, eh? I suppose they could use the tin can and your head to form a slot antenna...

    No mention of a camera-- I find it strange that Apple wouldn't include one and strange that a description of the phone wouldn't call it out as one of the early bullet items.

    But then, I'm an iPhone skeptic so...

    I do know that Apple has spread false information to ferret out leaks in the past-- I hope the source doesn't get caught in any kind of trap like that...

    Unless, as mentioned earlier in this thread, that 3rd party hardware includes the ability to upgrade its firmware. In that case, all customers will be required to install a mandatory "security" bug fix which installs support for a new private key, and everything proceeds as normal.

    Heck, it's even possible that Apple might already have planned for this contingency, and instead of just having one private key, they may have come up with a set of many private keys to choose from, and also preprogrammed support for all of those keys into every properly licensed accessory. Maybe they just planned to use the first key up until it was compromised, and then move on to another.

    Now, they might just push a new iTunes upgrade that blacklists the compromised key and moves on to another one -- and at the same time, instruct all licensed equipment to also add that key to their own blacklist (while continuing to maintain seamless support for all the remainder of the preprogrammed keys) the next time the licensed equipment connects to an authorized audio source.

    (Unless, maybe the reverse engineer in this case already anticipated such an eventuality, and actually extracted all of the keys -- assuming, of course, that there really are multiple keys. If that were the case, then the reverse engineer hypothetically might have defeated the entire benefit that Apple might have derived from hypothetically having multiple keys to choose from in the first place...)

    What's a little crazy with that is you start to believe your own hypothetical, made-up engineering. Now, no one here knows anything for sure, but, I think we can say with some certainty that Apple won't be changing the key in iTunes.

    3rd party hardware includes the ability to upgrade its firmware
    Sweeping generalisation. Those simple iHome AirPlay speakers can be connected to a computer and then firmware upgraded? Very unlikely. Not every AirPlay licensed hardware is an expensive Hi-Fi amp with upgradable firmware.

    Heck, it's even possible that Apple might already have planned for this contingency, and instead of just having one private key, they may have come up with a set of many private keys to choose from
    Near enough pointless. If someone is able to get hold of one private key, they're in a position to get hold of any others. This guy dumped the ROM after all.

    The biggest reason for Apple not to change the key is it would break everything. A "mandatory "security" bug fix" isn't feasible for hardware, it would be like trying to organise a product recall - you could never tell everyone, and everyone would be wondering why their product suddenly broke - the companies behind these products would be swamped with support calls. You simply can't just bring out an update that breaks everything, hoping that customers will somehow update hardware that might not even be up-dateable.

    tl;dr - However Apple engineered this, it's almost certainly not like that ^

    I'm still finding it hard not to believe this is a parody.

    You can live a long time without heat, electricity, oil.

    You can live for about 2 weeks without food.

    You can live 3 days without water. ;)

    A "North American Union" is a strategic planning balloon, or worse, and hardly a joke to Canadians.

    Tom was referring to this feature (http://arstechnica.com/business/news/2011/01/shows-over-how-hollywood-strong-armed-intel.ars).
    "Intel... takes advantage of a new hardware module inside Sandy Bridge's GPU to enable the secure delivery of downloadable HD content to PCs, has been blasted as "DRM." But of course it's only a DRM-enabler�a hardware block that can store predistributed keys that the Sandy Bridge GPU uses to decrypt movies a frame at a time before they go out over the HDMI port."

    It allows for secure playback of cloud movies, without the risk of pirating. Your own files aren't being scrutinized.

    Clix Pix put the matte preference well in an old post (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=245491):

    Go "matte.....easier on your eyes under all lighting conditions, more accurate representation of what will be printed or show on other people's monitors."

    Photographers and people who don't like sparkled/ full of reflection monitors go with matte.

    :/why is the US so far behind Europe with this kind of technology? :/

    (edit: maybe it isn't i haven't shopped for a phone in nearly a year)
    Because US cell phone carriers suck. :/Because US cell phone carriers suck. :/

    The real reason many foriegn cell phone providers and services are way ahead of the US is an old one:

    The US has had superior LANDLINE service for decades. As foreign countries began to develop worthwhile telephone service (in telephone history, relatively recent), thye opted for more that was not locked in to landlines and the progression of technology gave them a good lead, as opposed to the US which, sure, adopted cell phone use, but the landline service infrastructure that was already in palce held them back-why shell out for new tech when we can plug the old tech and rake in the money. It's funny, the US initial lead actually turned to a disadvantage for them (us).

    Europe is so far ahead of the US in what and how cell phone technolgy is used.

    This is probably the most level-headed thing I've ever heard on this entire forum. He appreciates and acknowledges the tech and yet at the same time jokes upon it.

    At least I won't have to wait 22 years to actually use it =p

    What apple has to do is beef up security all the way around, because a lot of people are going to see apple as a cash cow now. A lot of these so called cyber security companies are going to be the main problem just to continue to make a buck by putting fear in us all.

    yup, this would be vertical acquisition, well probably more diagonal

    Consumer Photography/Video- Apple knows something about this
    Consumer Printing - Apple knows something about this

    Apple has shipped over a million cameras in the last quarter alone so they do know something about the business.


    Business- Canon is a big name in business Apple needs to get in
    Medical - Canon is a big name in Medicine Apple needs to get in


    Apple needs to grow, they must make shareholders Happy... this world revolves around shareholders, that's it, well actually making WallStreet Happy.

    Then tell me what you would do with $10billion in Cash?

    It's either that or give it all to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation

    No they don't,. Apple is just 4% of their sales. Apple, on the other hand, can hardly release any hardware (with exception of battery chargers, perhaps) without Samsung components.

    ummmm, yes they do.

    Apple is a major customer of Samsung�s since the Korean company supplies various parts for Apple�s devices. Now it has been reported that Apple is gearing up to spend a juicy $7.8 billion on components from Samsung, making the Cupertino-based company Samsung�s single largest customer this year.

    There are plenty of other links (http://www.gadgetsgeek.ly/2011/02/15/apple-to-purchase-7-8-billion-in-parts-from-samsung/) as well supporting Apple's importance to Samsung as their largest customer.

    Educated guess would be "big" iPod sales will slump whilst the Nanos & Shuffles will skyrocket.

    The Nanos and Shuffles already outsell the big ones. And I suspect that's how it would be regardless of what Apple does with the big model.

    Many people just want something that is smaller and cheaper, and don't care that much about big capacity. Period.

    sad, as the app store is 99% junk.

    You�re right there. And what�s sad is Apple is chasing off (in this case) one of its best developers. Rogue Amoeba makes great software, and comes highly recommended from many people in the Mac community � AirFoil, Audio Hijack Pro, Fission, etc.

    You know what�s interesting is while browsing around with my iDisk app on the iPhone, I noticed the iDisk app displays Adobe�s Photoshop icon for PSD files. I wonder if Adobe gave Apple explicit permission to use their Photoshop file icon in the iDisk app?

    Yeah, OK, "rumored" then.... but there are more "rumors" that it'll be Xeon (Woodcrest) rather than Core 2 Duo (Conroe).

    In fact, I think "Chinese Wispers" might be more appropriate! :confused:

    MacPro will have Woodcrest in dual configs, but i'd expect to see Conroe in the low end.

    MacPro's: Now with Intel Core 2 and Xeon Processors.

    Merom in the iMac. If there is not a big difference between the Merom and Conroe(which I doubt there will be) it would make sense to go with the chip with lower power consumption for better temps.
