Jaguar is Over
·
· Score: 1
I was really hyped about jaguar when it was released and got it immediately: shelled out 169 euro's (as compared to $129 for jaguar US) to buy it.
Apple promised me a Sherlock that could find me a restaurant NEAR ME, directions to drive there. It promised it would tell me what movie is playing when and where.
In fact, apple's dutch website is STILL promising these features. (www.apple.nl).
Too bad Sherlock's yellow Pages have no dutch addresses listed... Too bad it's moviefinder only looks at US cinema's... Too bad Sherlock's television listings do not list any channel I can receive in Amsterdam...
And too bad Apple charged me a lot more for Jaguar then it charges it's American customers, while delivering less functionality.
And the baddest, baddest thing of all: Apple is still making false promises about Sherlock for Jaguar!
Maybe I should drag Apple to court over this? Or is making false statements legal on the internet?
some years ago the dutch telecomcompany and a technical university recorded ALL phonecalls from fixed (identifiable) lines during a six month period, to "research voice-printing and speech/pattern recognition".
wonder what they are doing with that big fat and very handy database!

this "computer guy" lives a repetitious life. I remember reading this earlier. someone less lazy would provide a link, but why bother.
question is: fiction or fact?

You are so right. Scroll-time wasting double spacing ranks way up on my scale of irritating postings too.
