Both. I just turned 20 and wish I learned piano growing up, if only just to be the groundwork to my current musical talents. At the same time, I was never huge on basketball growing up, even though I played, yet I have been playing every day the past week with friends.

Existing AT&T iPhone customers who are in the middle of their two-year contract with AT&T and want to upgrade to the new iPhone 3GS may have to pay $200 more for the phone, and some of them have taken to Twitter to protest the price difference. The new phone, which goes on sale June 19, will cost new and "qualifying" customers $199 for the 16-gigabyte version and $299 for the 32 GB mode, says AT&T, the exclusive carrier of the popular smartphone in the United States. Surprised and angry AT&T customers have been venting on Twitter, the microblogging Web site where, as of this morning, nearly 4,000 of them signed a "Twitition," a Twitter petition protesting the pricing.
- Leo Laporte
We have a similar issue here in the UK with O2 and those of us on 18 month contracts with the 3G. We're being asked to buy ourselves out of the remaining contract. It does not seem likely that O2 will budge on the issue - essentially it's a contract issue and the phone companies don't have the flexibility to solve the problem, now that we are on the hook.
- Andy Piper
O2 (and AT&T) could let customers transfer the remainder of their existing contract to a new one (ie add their remaining months to a new iPhone contract). There'd be a few kinks to work out, but it would be a win for all.
- Jules
Read what McCracken had to say about it: http://technologizer.com/2009...
- Ⓒⓗⓡⓘⓢ Ⓟⓘⓡⓘⓛⓛⓞ
I like McCraken's take. I’m not sympathetic either. if customers are allowed to upgrade their iPhones whenever they want - for a subsidized price, then *every* mobile phone customer should have that same option.
- jbrotherlove
Jules, the argument (in comments on my blog post) then goes OK, so we transfer months across to a new contract... then Apple brings out a new iPhone in 12 months... should we then transfer the remainder? It doesn't work out. As painful as it is, I can see the issue here. Subsidies are in play and yeah, every phone customer should get the same treatment, not just iPhone users. It sucks for me, but I can see how we got here.
- Andy Piper
OH NO!!! Should we start a fundraiser?!? Or maybe the cult of MAC will quit whining and buy a phone they can actually afford without being drawn by the novelty marketing. Boohoo.
- sofarsoShawn
If you want the latest and greatest, you have to pay up. Nothing new here folks.
- Steve Council
Uh, hello--welcome to every cell phone contract ever. You tie yourselves into 2 years, you get the subsidized phone. You want a new phone before 2 years are up, you pay the price. Did iPhone users never have a cell phone before a couple of years ago? Apple/AT&T didn't help w/ this sense of entitlement by giving early adopters refunds the first time they dropped prices and the first time they put out a new phone only 1 year later, so they partially have themselves to blame for this.

So if I pay the additional money for the 3gs iphone what happens to my 3g iphone? Do I have to turn it in? Can I keep it and sell it? If I sell it is it commitment free to the new owner?

It is true. This is standard Mobile company protocol. If you upgrade to a new device early you have to pay full price. It is not "fair" but it is the way it is. Though... gfurry has a great question that I am curious to know the answer to.

I think this is a bit absurd. Just wait a while! I had to do the same when the iPhone 3G came out, and ultimately I was glad I waited. To my knowledge, AT&T hasn't altered there policies here. If you wanted to switch to the latest and greatest Blackberry you'd have to wait as well. Get over it.
- Clay Newton
@Walt Ruppar If this is the case I would think those that want to upgrade could still get decent money for a 3G since you could use it without signing a 2 year contract correct?
- gfurry
No more than the $99 that it would cost you at the Apple store I would suppose... Perhaps a search of eBay for "iphone 3g" or perhaps "iphone 3g unlocked" would find you more insight than me who is just plain hypothesizing. :-)
- JR
Folks with 2G iPhones can simply insert their sim into current 3G and viola! So perhaps there is a market still for the current 3G, but I dunno. However what I do know is that if you do the step up from a 2G to a current 3G, without doing so in an AT&T or Apple store, eventually you will get a txt message /voicemail / note from AT&T telling you that it's gonna cost you an additional $10...

Leaked Best Buy memo offers Windows 7 details | Beyond Binary - CNET News - http://news.cnet.com/8301-13...

Engadget brightened up a slow news day on Friday with a leaked memo from Best Buy that offers a number of Windows 7 details. Most notable is the fact that the memo puts a date on when people can start buying Vista-based machines and qualify for a free upgrade to Windows 7. According to the memo, June 26 is the magic date--and I'm hearing that date is correct. Images: A peek at Windows 7 release candidate View the full gallery The memo also says that on June 26, Best Buy will start preselling upgrade versions of Windows 7 Home Premium for $49 and Windows 7 Professional for $99 via its Web site. It's not totally clear whether those are standard or promotional prices, although the memo says the pre-order program will run only for 16 days.

Robert, much of learning is about making meaningful connections through meaningful experiences and learning through apprenticeships. These tools provide the ability to experience thought leaders on any/many topics from anywhere and if you participate in the conversation you begin to build your own understanding. As the filters (search & social connections) allow you to fine tune that engagement it can become very effective.

Or, you can share music on directly on Facebook profile by entering the direct hotlink in the Share field and editing the Title, Album and Artist fields yourself :). No 3rd party app necessary. Free hosts include Dropbox, Fileden and your own site

What I REALLY need is an app that collects all the menubar icons that can't be displayed (because the current app's menus cover them) and displays them in a dropdown box. Extra points if the app's menubar icon changes when one of the collected apps requires input or something).
