Doesn't Apple typically have products ready to sell the day that they are released? There is a shitload of work that they could do between January and whenever the product actually hits the stores. So until you can slap down your money and buy and iPad about the only thing you can say is that its minimum specs were advertised on Jan 26. Especially with things like the pics floating around of the frame that seems to fit a camera.

Well thats what you get when you let hyperchickens get law degrees
Given the amount of debt that California is in, if you included a clause about confiscating the proceeds of the crime, then this might not be a bad idea at all!!
After finally RTFA I can see that you can have manual control over the update process, so you can test and deploy to production. In fact it almost looks like Windows Update! [/ducks] But IMHO running a system on automatic updates is just plain crazy
My hubris (as you call it) is that a production system should remain static and changes only made at known times by predictable actions. The "experts" can't test my configuration, they can only *assume* that they have performed enough testing that they *believe* my system will not be affected.
Allowing automatic updates to any system means that you no longer have any sort of configuration control over it. And there is no point in testing automatic updates on a test system if you are not going to apply the same update mechanism to your production system - because you no longer have matching configurations between test and production
Thats a big *if* What it means is that you are deferring quality control assessment of patches to an outside company. I for one don't want changes made to a system without my approval or consideration.
In Australia a few years back (well more than 10 or 15) they streamlined the process for filling out taxes. The government produced a really nice paper document that walked you through the exact process of what to fill out and where to do it. In the following years tax revenue was down because people were claiming exactly what they were entitled to. Later on the process was made slightly more confusing. I remember cynically thinking at the time why things were changing again.

While I appreciate reading books I much more enjoying using my local public library than spending a shitload of money on books whose value depreciates faster than.. well anything. And yes I know I am paying for those books through my taxes, but the range and depth of the libraries catalog far surpasses anything I could achieve if I spent the same amount of money privately.
So I am confused now - I support reading books, but don't support maintaining a huge private library. Does this mean I am bent on destroying o supporting books???

Since Apple doesn't announce a release date for new products it would be difficult for the iSlate to be late.
While you are technically correct, no business person would ever want their product associated with a negative perception no matter how untrue the connection was.
Regardless of any functionality this tablet will have, it only takes a very short time to come up with the "is-late" pronunciation of iSlate. I can't imagine that Jobs would let anything that could be turned into a such an obvious mockery of Apple be released. I have no idea what the table will be called, but I am betting heavily against "iSlate" - and yes I have been following all the reports on companies being purchased etc.
I was in an Apple store the other day and played around with the video camera on the Nano. Then I went and looked at the iPod Touch and noticed that on the back of the Touch (in the same relative position as the lens on the back of the Nano) is a plastic insert the size and shape of the lens on the Nano. I think the rumors of Apple pulling the camera from the current generation Touch at the last moment are probably true. Hopefully the camera will appear soon. I also have no need for an iPhone, but I do for an iPod Touch with a camera.
What about the current generation of iPod touch which is missing the camera - and every man and his dog was expecting it to have one. Or even the tablet that is likely to be coming out next year. Apple does make devices other than the iPhone.

Selling an Opel or Chevrolet would add more to the GM identity.
If only GM would sell a decent Opel here. I have owned the Vectra and loved it, and spent a lot of time in Italy with a rented Astra - 1.8l 4 speed 200km/hr on the flat.

You never worked with VAX documentation did you? That stuff demanded measurements in bookshelf lengths.

No no, they mean the Pearl River Deli. It's on the East Side
Not being from NYC I can't rightly tell what part of NY this is meant to be called, but there is a town called "Perl River", and yes, the have Deli's

Anyone ever eaten at one of these???

According to the The Age: apple major product launch set for january 26
Of course given the date it must be the Ocker version rather than the version
