24-inch Alu iMac All fine for me. First restart was slow but all subsequent restarts were snappy as usual. I like the new dropdown transparency and stacks options, and appreciate that Mail doesn't crash anymore (didn't even realise it was a Growl…

As long as it fixes Photoshop CS3 text input issues I'll be happy. Oh, and make Mail stop crashing.

This is great news. I shall be definitely purchasing an iPhone now. Before it was too much of a hit to take on the tariff compared to my existing one, now it is much more balanced (especially considering the unlimited data). Likely I am not the o…

Quick, somebody patent "the ordering and payment of a hot beverage from a popular coffee shop chain using an internet-enabled application and registration based accounting system on a portable MP3 player with a touch-screen interface" and get ready …

I'm not sure how well this would work - a huge requirement for P2P to be successful is lots of seeders (i.e. users who upload). If I downloaded a bunch of tracks, but had to put up with DRM, got a ton of advertisements shoved in my face in the proce…

Dang my plan was to buy an iMac this friday... If new Penryns in the iMac, as suggested by this article, were guaranteed for January, I would wait. But I have a feeling we won't see that, so I may buy one this week anyway. I think they will updat…

In the meantime, I've been told that an "Apple Shop" is opening in PC World at Sprucefield, Lisburn next week (one guy told me the 3rd, one guy told me the 7th). It will have Apple staff and provide repairs, etc. We'll catch up with the US yet...

Haven't read the article in full but WOOHOOOO says me from Belfast.

I'm glad I see I'm not alone from the above comments. Apple/O2 - your tariffs suck! Get real and we'll all get an iPhone. I'm daily waiting news of an unlocked UK version. Then I will just pop in my current SIM (O2 contract - 600mins/1000 txts a mon…

The £269 price doesn't really bother me. I WANT an iPhone and am willing to pay that to get one. Heck, I'd even pay a bit more. So what has stopped me getting one? The tariffs. They suck. My monthly expenditure would go up bigtime if I got an iPhone…

I wonder if this, being the first ever Apple unlocked iPhone, will reveal anything to or help out the hackers. Still, as someone pointed out in another forum, €999 iPhone + no contract is overall much cheaper than €399 iPhone + 2 year contract...…

I agree with most comments in this thread. Comparing this thing to the iPod is ridiculous. When the iPod came out, i was very compelled by the idea of being able to carry around my whole music collection in my pocket and listen to what i want whe…

Ah you beat me to it. 4GB in macbooks ... sweet. I for one am glad they didn't change the macbook design, though I would have liked to have seen LED displays and a Superdrive in the base model. I can't imagine Apple are saving a ton of money by n…
