TLS sounds about right.
The protocol also provides a verification protocol (see http://waveprotocol.org/), so actions performed by any participant in a hosted conversation can always be verified by other participants in that hosted conversation, regardless of their provider.
What this means for you: encryption (TLS), and your contributions can't be tampered with.
If you move a compiled app to the iPhone without running it through XCode, it just gives a giant image of an application icon when run. No doubt this will be hacked soon enough.
You can't back up to drives plugged into an Airport Extreme, though, even though the much-toted Time Capsule will apparently be able to (In their defence, this could come with an update before the Time Capsule actually ships).
They did this with the latest iMovie, too - stripped out a huge amount of features in favour of something in theory simpler, but it really would have been nice if the old functionality was still hidden somewhere in there. It's kind of annoying.
As a consumer, I want my P2P experience to be as fast as possible. The last thing I want slowing my internet service down are regular downloading freeloaders, only getting content from one source, and clogging up the tubes, rather than downloading different parts of my final file from a whole bunch of different (and potentially local) sources.
Seriously.
This co-incides slightly with Mac OS X Leopard, in that, the instructional video talked about "how easy it was to automatically use GMail accounts in Mail.
Well, I think support by Google may have been pivotal.
So, I live in the Netherlands, and I want an iPhone. What does this mean for me? Does rw filesystem access imply that I can break whatever part of the phone it is that allows me to use other SIM cards? Or does it just help application developers?
Is there any place/website I can just go to and find out the "current status" of what I can do with specific firmware revision? Without digging through the developer forums, or idling in IRC asking stupid questions?
This moves the burden to the hardware manufacturer. What if this was the case, and network administrators (even good ones) the world over immediately assumed that everything they purchased out of the box was secure - right before a provider had a disgruntled employee upload the default password list for thousands/millions of routers to the internets?... although that is just the FUD part of my brain talking. I actually like this idea.
My naïve interpretation of PAX is that it's not a place to actually release news about games, as you say this is now done via the power of the interblag.
PAX seems something like what E3 once was, but instead of being mixed in with the archaic idea that major announcements have to happen only once a year (etc), it's just.. the fun part. And I'm all for that.

It's cultural! Try not to be insensitive.

Obligatory "my Mac only has one LED to indicate that it's sleeping" post.
Please allow me to contribute the obligatory "yes, because blackboards and chalk have clearly failed us" response.
You mean you don't have yours yet? My future self dropped one off to me a couple of weeks ago.
Thanks, your wording is much better. Sorry, my post was a bit of a quick hack reply before I left the house this morning.
Long ago I learned it was a planet and I see no reason to unlearn it. Why should I?
Before five hundred years ago I learned that the Earth was flat and I see no reason to unlearn it. Why should I?
Especially if you're trying to IM on the same hardware you're trying to fix.
