    Hehe, that is EXACTLY WHAT IT'S LIKE USING THE NEW MAPS.

    I jailbroke my 4 on day one, and haven't had any problems with it.

    ^^^^
    Me too....jailbreaking the iPhone is a must if you ask me. I enjoy the mods like shrink, 5icon dock, and biteSMS is 1000x better than the stock text app

    No, not now. Back in the day it was crazy what you had to do but now it's done in less than 30seconds

    iOS6 isn't completely JB'd yet but give it time, it'll happen

    I got $225 for my 4. I think the 4s was going for $300 or so on eBay when I checked.

    Having a weird problem with my 5. Once every other day or so, the phone reboots itself. No other problems besides that!

    bring it back. my 4 did this for a bit, got to be unbearable. they replaced it for free.

    edit: that is, if you have a store near you... definitely worth contacting apple about.

    same applies though. bring it back to where you got it and/or contact apple. my iphone 4 only did that here or there but then started turning off regularly in my pocket. no questions asked, they replaced it with a new one that has been fine ever since.

    waiting till may for a more reasonable upgrade/contract renewal on the 5 myself.

    So I went to see the new Apple store at the Bellevue Square mall in Bellevue, WA (which is a 2nd home city for Microsoft) and this place is HUGE. It seriously is 3x the size of the original location and it now when you walk out the front, it looks down on the Microsoft store. Talk about trying to out shine your competition lol....



    We picked up an AppleTV finally and I look forward to messing around with it tonight

    "AppleInsider briefly mentions that Apple appears set to launch updated iMacs on October 24, the day after the company's rumored media event."


    Hopefully it's true this time around. My student discount ends October 30th!

    From Macrumors:

    As part of its report detailing part numbers for the "iPad mini", AppleInsider briefly mentions that Apple appears set to launch updated iMacs on October 24, the day after the company's rumored media event.The person also added that Apple is rumored to begin selling new iMac desktops on Oct. 24, one day after the anticipated Oct. 23 event.

    While there have been rumblings of an iMac update for some time, and earlier this week we shared a report claiming that the new models will be thinner than current ones, today's report appears to be the first to specifically claim that they will launch next week.

    For those keeping track, Apple's plans for next week now appear to include the iPad mini, updated iMacs, a 13-inch Retina MacBook Pro, and updated Mac mini models.

    Update 8:49 AM: 9to5Mac has now posted the four new iMac model numbers, which presumably correspond to two different standard configurations each of the 21.5-inch and 27-inch models, although the report claims that at least some configurations may not ship until several weeks after their introduction. This would presumably refer to the 27-inch models, which have reportedly been suffering from lower yields on the display-glass lamination process and have been rumored to be seeing a later launch than their smaller counterparts.

    Somewhere between "too much" and "waaaaay too much".

    Typed from my dented, cracked, overheated, and noisy as hell first gen Macbook Pro. So take that pricing information with a grain of salt.

    I can't believe how shitty the quality of the iPhone 5's case is. I know all the hardware has been improved, but the iPhone 5 itself looks and feels cheap compared to the iPhone 4S. I wish they just would have kept the design of the iPhone 4S and enlarged the dimensions to the ones of iPhone 5.

    I'm super protective over my phones I bought what I feel has been one of the best case styles for the iPhone 4/4s/5. It's the double cover from Icipio. Now I'm just waiting on my body armor to come in

    I hate cases. But I've been waiting for a battery case. With my business the phone is dead by noon. But there are no cases available yet. So I've just been waiting. And in the meantime the phone now looks like total shit. So I'm going to break it and use my contacts at the Genius Bar to swap it. As soon as one is available.

    Shady but I don't care. I spent 500 bucks on this thing.

    Did you get AppleCare? They will swap that shit out no matter what.

    Apple care is a waste of money to me. I used to work at the store. I know everybody there. They do what I need to have done.

    For the average person tho... I suggest Apple Care...
