If you have the 3G phone can you take video with the new operating system? - Amani
Amani, I'll have the 3.0 software shortly, so I'll let you know. I have my doubts though. - Keith Bennett
sweet. thanks Keith. When you say shortly is that today/tomorrow/ weds?? Oh, and how do u get it so early if u can share? :) - Amani via IM
I'm on the developer program and they announced we can download it today, I'm trying now, but I'm guessing the server is being hammered. I can't share it sorry. - Keith Bennett

I would love to see an Apple Tablet but I don't think we will. - Shawn Hickman
I would really love to see an Apple Netbook. - TheHenry
If the rumors are true wouldn't they be the same thing? - Shawn Hickman
Nope, a Netbook, is like a smaller notebook, and a Tablet is a Touchscreen laptop - TheHenry
TheHenry, I suspect Shawn knows the difference between the two. Speculation has been that Apple would release a tablet in lieu of a netbook. Their tablet would be a response to the netbook trend, and would fill the same niche. - Christopher Carr
Thanks Christopher, that is exactly what I meant. - Shawn Hickman

Antivirus coming to the iPhone? - TheHenry via Bookmarklet
I'd rather buy 100 fart apps than an anti-virus app. They'd be far more useful, and that's saying something. - Martin Bryant
why not? the iphone must look very tempting to virus writers, just because its an apple dose that make it immune to attack? - tony bland
IIRC, the iPhone was one of the platforms at Pwn2Own or some other public hacking contest and no one could break it. Thanks to AT&T and Apple's tight control on the OS, hardware, app store and ecosystem in general, you can't run unapproved apps on the device in its default configuration. As much as I'm NOT an Apple fan, I'd have to say the iPhone isn't significantly more hackable than your TV set at this point. - LANjackal

The Myths of Apple and Business Users « GartenBlog - http://gartenblog.net/2009...
Really interesting post from Michael Gartenberg on the myths Apple faces in the business market. I'm not convinced that the price issue is actuall a myth (for reasons I explain in a comment) but still, Michael is fundamentally right: if you're in business you should be considering Macs. They might not be right for you, but they're not the automatic write-off they once were. - Ian Betteridge via Bookmarklet

"Of course, every Mac OS X box running Apple's unpatched BIND is still a danger to anyone who uses it, but the important thing is, iTunes got an update. Apple still hasn't applied a very small patch, that according to everyone else, at worst might slow down very busy DNS servers, but would still protect them from current active exploits. (By "Everyone else" I do mean, literally, every other OS vendor affected by this bug. Apple is the only one not to have patched yet.)" - Ian Betteridge via Bookmarklet
