Macworld reports (http://www.macworld.com/article/145386/2010/01/iphone_trademark.html) that Apple has taken control of a trademark for the term "i-phone" in China after reaching an agreement with the previous holder to resolve a conflict that could have prevented Apple from releasing the iPhone there under its global brand name.Hanwang Technology, a Chinese maker of e-readers and other devices, applied for the i-phone trademark for mobile phones in China in when it also launched a handset by that name that it no longer sells. But the record for that trademark, which several months ago showed Hanwang as the applicant, now lists Apple's name instead, and it displays a new note saying the trademark was transferred.Chinese intellectual property lawyers had previously indicated that Apple would have difficulty launching the iPhone in China under its usual name due to its similarity to that of Hanwang's device and trademark.
Apple launched (http://www.macrumors.com/2009/10/30/iphone-launches-today-in-china/) the iPhone in China in late October with partner carrier China Unicom, which has reportedly exceeded 300,000 units sold (http://www.macrumors.com/iphone/2009/12/29/china-unicom-passes-300000-iphones-sold/) despite a slow launch weekend (http://www.macrumors.com/2009/11/03/china-unicom-reports-only-5000-new-iphone-users-since-launch/).

AT&T has rules for iPhone 3G S launch
http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/4507/attlogo.gif
Lines allowed to form starting at 7am
Perhaps AT&T has learned some from the troubles with iPhone past launches and they are going to try to make the experience better by settings some rules this time around. While AT&T is calling these “rules” guidelines, we think it really is nothing more than an effort to make a success of what the company hopes is one of the biggest tech event launches of the year.
AT&T stores will receive inventory in time for the actual launch on June 19th. AT&T is already accepting pre-orders online as well as in stores. This change is key this time around because those that choose not to place a pre-order could be left out in the cold. From our understanding, pre-order customers will be given priority.
The way that it will work is when the AT&T store opens, customers in line will then be split into two lines, with those already having a pre-order placed in one line and those who don’t have a pre-order placed in the other line. Pre-order customers will be able to start receiving their new iPhone 3G S starting shortly after 7 A.M., while those without a pre-order will have to wait until the store’s official regular opening time. Upon the actual regular opening time of the store, the two lines will then be merged into one line again. Apple retail stores will also be an option as they will open at 8 A.M. on launch day, but only those that pre-order from the Apple retail store will actually be able to pick up their phones early.
As for the pricing, current AT&T customers that have had a contract with AT&T for at least 18 months will be able to get the new 16GB model for $199 or a 32GB model for $299. If you happen to be a current AT&T iPhone owner, but have not gone 18 months on your current contract, you will be able to pick up a new iPhone 3G S but will have to pay between $399 to $599, depending on how much time is left on your current contract and whether you want the 16GB or 32GB model. From what we understand, you will have to agree to another 2-year contract to get the iPhone 3G S this time around.
The only actual possible loophole in this deal is to cancel your current AT&T contract and pay the $175 early termination fee and then wait three months. After the three months have lapsed, you can return to AT&T and then get new customer pricing, which would save you $225, but you have to endure a three-month wait.
While the pricing and the options might make some AT&T customers unhappy, it is what it is. The bottom line is that the iPhone is still so hot, AT&T knows that people will pay what it takes to sport the new version if they are a big iPhone fan. According to our sources, AT&T should have enough inventory to more than cover the pre-orders, but beyond the pre-orders it is difficult to say if they will be able to meet the demand on launch day for additional units. Our advice is that if you want to have one on launch day, you had better get your pre-order in soon.

i thought this would be as good a place as any to post this. i suffered for the past couple years with that annoying ass gap between songs when itunes plays mixed cds back. just the other month i figured out how to get rid of it. it consolidates the album to one track, but the gap is gone. how to:
insert the cd and pull it up on itunes. click the bar on the far left to arrange the cd by number of song. select all songs that you want to combine into a single track. go to advanced --> join cd tracks. then reimport the cd and voila, listening bliss.
sorry if i'm just a dumb ass and you all already know this ****, but if i can help just one gap sufferer... well, then my post won't die in vain :p

Glass is made from silicon - and I saw the article and you need to send yourself a link via email and post that one, the link you gave it for your own login.
Its interesting, but until they actually deliver it, well, its a wait and see item.

My wife is the family photographer. From Friday to this morning, we downloaded another 761 pictures. That's a normal weekend. Consequently, her iPhoto library has grown to approx 450 GB. I'm finding that hard to manage and also finding that my ATV2 can't seem to load her pictures for a slide show anymore... I assume her library is just too dang big.
Any suggestions?

I've used iPlayer Downloader for a couple of years but it's now stopped working. Anyone else having these problems?
Does anyone know of another iPlayer download program?
I'm missing it too .. we used to put BBC programs on the kids ipods for car journeys but nothing downloads any more .. I've not seen that anyone is working on an update either *sigh*
It may be the end of it this time :(

So apparently Apple has put out a new version of software for the 6th gen nano.
Sweet, it has capabilities for me to manually tell the Nano to shut off.
I tell it to go ahead and update. It gives me an error saying I do not have permissions and links me to a page that doesn't even list that error. I'm using a 2010 MBP 13" base model if that makes any difference (running Snow Leopard).
I update itunes just in case it is that, still same error.
Why won't it update and what can I do to fix that?

Do a google search for InsomiaT. It's a fork of InsomniaX that has a system pref pane and works on Snow Leopard. I use it on Lion, works fine. It's in system prefs, so less menu bar clutter! :D
Awesome! I have been needing something but settling for leaving it cracked open.
right after installing it didn't work so I ran sudo kextload /system/library/extensions/insomniat.kext and it works great. A restart probably would have worked but who has an extra 20 seconds to spare? :)

A work around you could do is buy a stereo mini to one quarter inch adapter (like this (http://www.headphone.com/accessories/stereo-mini-to-one-quarter-inch-adapter.php) one) and then a quarter to mini that fits (like this (http://www.headphone.com/accessories/grado-quarter-to-eighth-inch-plug-adapter.php)), and that way you can avoid buying new headphones.
But if you prefer new headphones I would recommend a portable pair like Sennheiser PX200-2 (just as a little note, they are a lot better than the first version of the PX200), full size I can't remember now one with a "skinny" connector.
Those are the ones I have, right down to the Grado brand. And they still don't fit :confused:

This version apparently requires that you have the iOS 4.2b3 ipsw file, which was only released to developers.

I don't really understand what you are trying to say, taking it that Leopard is OSX, and WWDC did have Leopard info, but whatever. I just hope there is indeed a Feb 20 conference.

Yeah, I believe the 5770 will work with the '06 models, but you need at least SL 10.6.4 (I think) in order to have functioning MDPs.
You need 10.6.4 for the cards to work on any machine, but I believe with any version of OS X you can get basic display, even over MDP.

Hi,
Here's what I want to do. Send a cool newsletter to a bunch of people, but I want it in the email (not an attached pdf file, I want it like a normal newsletter) and I want it to look nice, like with pictures and stuff.
So I tried the Publishing View with Word but then I'm stuck. How do I send it? I'm I even using the right program to do that?
Thank you all.

Your computer is infected with some description of malware, which is giving you this message, probably to fool you into buying their useless software. Superantispyware is not an anti-virus program, so you need to cover all the angles. Download, install, update and scan with these programs:
Spyware Terminator: http://www.spywareterminator.com/
Avira AntiVir Classic: http://www.free-av.com/
AVG anti-spyware free: http://free.grisoft.com/doc/download-fre�
If they do not solve the problem, try restarting in safe mode (press f8 repeatedly while your computer starts up), and scan in that. Then reboot your computer into normal windows, and see if it is gone. If not, scan with http://www.bitdefender.com/PRODUCT-14-en�
and then online with http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner
