I had both my kids delivered in a hospital, without healthcare. It was about 7K a pop. If anything, anything at all went bad for the mother or the baby the bill would have instantly jumped to over 100K.
God help your business if you even legally owned i[Anything] and Apple woke up one morning and decided to start using it.
Yes, that is what all business owners fear. Being paid a ridiculous amount of money to slightly change your name. I can't think of anything worse then getting a huge check to change my business's name from iCloud to CloudMe.
If I could mod you up I would. Great explanation. At the core the jobs of an IT worker is a simple one. Help people get things done. Sometimes that means doing the impossible, but most of the time it means helping someone understand what would be required to get it done, so that they can tell someone else it is cost ineffective.
Well, that IS different. As long as your paying I'll do whatever you want, as long as it's legal for me to do so. If you asking me to do something illegal, (and I have been asked,) I give you the option to best we can legally. If you ask me to break the law again I give you an option. Either do drop the idea and do not ask me again, or I turn you over.
There is no patch for the original iPhone because it is not susceptible to that problem. Original iPhone only runs up to 3.1.3. I'm not saying it doesn't exist, that iOS version is pretty old... but you would need to actually find a known vulnerability in 3.1.3 to prove him wrong.
iTunes music is 256kbps ABR AAC. You didn't mention your bit rate, so I'll assume you have 256kbps VBR mp3 encoded in LAME. AAC is a little better quality them MP3 at the same bit-rate. At the time old iTunes DRMed 128kbps AAC files were generally comparable to 192kbps MP3s.
For info; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Audio_Coding#AAC.27s_improvements_over_MP3
However, 256kbps VBR lame encoded MP3s are not going to sound any different then 256kbps ABR AAC.
Also, I think your confused. AAC is not an Apple thing. It is an industry standard. Every digital music player I can think of plays AACs.
To answer your question though, if you don't use iTunes, don't have any iOS devices, then you'd get nothing out this service.
The screen is different, iPhone4 has a better screen then iPod Touch, the camera ofcourse, and yes it's real GPS. We know the cell bits, (including GPS,) add $130 (see iPad wifi vs 3G) so $320 for the camera and better screen.
In all fairness, the headline is misleading. Apple and Nokia were suing each other because Nokia was refusing to license the patents relating to GSM technology to Apple for price everyone else was paying.
One place I worked at as a mac sys admin required I install that on my OS X servers. It dutifully scanned our SVN library for windows viruses every night. It was a waste of cycles on any server that wasn't handling windows files though.
google would never do this...
You can't track kids, (illegal.) You can't sell their information, (illegal.) You can't sell them stuff, (no credit card.)
Apple has had wireless syncing in their products since the original AppleTV was announced in 2006. The icon is the same sync circle Apple has used for iSync since 2003, with the icon they used since 1999 for WiFi.
Actually, I'd think the Jedi are more the walled garden side. They have strict rules and you have to get approval for pretty much anything. What you can and can not do with the force is strictly regulated. Where as the Sith could do whatever they wanted whenever they wanted. Sith can use all side of the force, including the "Dark Side."
So, US senators asked Apple to ban apps that report DUI checkpoints. In response Apple changes rules to say that apps can not report DUI checkpoints which are not published, although legally all checkpoints must be published or they are illegal.
I read this as Apple pointing out the hypocrisy of the fed government's request.

Usually when asked to do the impossible for an employer I just deliver. Guess that is the difference between IT and good IT...

technically, it wasn't actually the users location either, just the location and last date seen of cell towers.
I got you bet on that one! I can sell stuff, but after shipping and ebay fees I lose money.

People want to pay for it.

Apple tried that with the first gen iPhone. People did not like it.
agreed.
iPhone owners are known consumers. Android users are cheap.
Um, I already do this. My iPhone is part of it, as are other remotes. Nearly all the things I use with iOS also have, (or are in beta) for Android versions. As others said, somethings just shouldn't be remote controlled, (IE bathroom lights....) almost everything else is remote. Pretty much all garage doors have had remotes for ever. I would like to see these iOS enabled. For room fans and lights, no need for everyone in your house to need their smartphone with then like an ID badge. This works well. If you lose, or can't find the remote, the wall switch can be used to reset the fan to off, with the light to full on; http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1v/R-100629205/h_d2/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053 A/C control, works with iPhone and has a web interface for programing. You can also "bump" the temperature from your iPhone; http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10051&productId=202352449&langId=-1&catalogId=10053&ci_sku=202352449&ci_src=14110944&cm_mmc=shopping-_-googlebase-_-D26X-_-202352449&locStoreNum=218 A/V control. Full web-interface, full iOS app. They recently also made a native port for Android; http://thinkflood.com/products/redeye/ AppleTV has a native iOS (only) app, but my redeye can control it anyway. I don't know much about GoogleTV, but I assume they have, (had?) one also. A the hospital they have a big push to move things to be accessible via iPads.

and eery major one that did is now working on migrating away from it.

Talking about search points which are legal yet unpublished. This pretty only things these guys are talking about. It has nothing to do with DUI; http://www.frtv.org/2010/06/constitution-free-zone-border-patrol-security-search-and-seizure-laws/
Yes. But only if they are legal checkpoints, (which are required to be published,) and not published.
