Apple WWDC 2012

[yourbeliefs]

OUCH... not coming to original iPad but coming to iPhone 3GS?

 

[Neutron]

The maps feature will be limited with no Siri support on the older iPhone hardware and 2nd gen iPad....

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Wow surprised nothing about AppleTV. I expected them to announce a DEV platform for AppleTV including App Store.

 

[Neutron]

So Siri coming to iPad as well as the expanded functionality they talked about won't be until iOS 6 as well right?

 

[mperdue]

I wonder what's going up on the developer sites. They're currently offline so they are probably updating something.

 

[iceturkee]

did they anything about a release date for the new imac? thanks.

Nothing. Just stuff on their laptops and the new OSX and iOS

 

[Neutron]

I'm surprised at no new iMac. Didn't the last one come out over a year ago?

I new there wouldn't be a Mini update since the last one for that came out just last July.

mine came out in may 2011.

I wonder if they will announce that the iPhone 4S is available for T-Mobile? Not that I care since we have Verizon and that's the only service that works where we live.

A related story.

T-Mobile to offer iPhone-compatible 1900MHz HSPA+ in San Francisco during Apple's WWDC event


I suspect that Apple may want things to bea b it further along----but it can be done at least some of the time.

 

[mperdue]

mine came out in may 2011.

Mine too.

Did they say if it was indeed Ivy Bridge?

The difference between Ivy Bridge and Sandy Bridge is small. I personally wouldn't be to excited just because it has an Ivy Bridge processor. Next year will be the next big jump in the Intel line. Ivy Bridge was the the tick in Intel's tick - tock roadmap. Tick's normally just offer small advancements where their tock release has more of their changes.

$2199 starting price for the quad core i7 15.4" retina. WOW.....

Out of my price range for a laptop. But impressive specs.

Finally Facetime over cellular is now available. This was the only reason I jailbroke my iPhone.

I just jailbroke mine last week and I didn't know that was available. What app would that be? I assume using FaceTime over cellular uses data. I only have the small 200mb plan from AT&T, and I bet using FaceTime would eat up that plan pretty quickly wouldn't it?

The app Scott was referring to is a purchased app from Cydia called My3G. It tricked your iDevice into thinking it is always on a WiFi network. Allowing FaceTime to work over 3G, or even download large apps from Apples own app store that would be considered to large to be allowed to download over 3G.

Now I get to twiddle my thumbs until the Fall and iOS 6 is released..

I have the best wife in the world...

I am guessing she was reading this thread as when I got home she told me not to bug her about ordering a new laptop. This morning I was looking at the new Retna Macbook and she saw me and asked me which one I liked. I picked the cheaper one and said my answer surprised her as she figured I would want the extra space and the faster CPU (which she was correct about but I didn't tell her that.) anyways after a few second she said "Well I ordered you the more expensive one because I figured that was what you wanted, Happy Fathers day!"

I almost fell over!

She also ordered one for my son who is graduating high school. It was decided a few weeks ago we would be ordering him a new laptop for his graduation present from us, and now he is getting the best as well.

I just ordered 2 Magsafe to Magsafe 2 converters so I can continue to use my old power supplies. MagSafe to MagSafe 2 Converter - Apple Store (U.S.) In addition I ordered a Thunderbold Gigabit ethernet adapter. (They didnt have the Thunderbold Firewire adapter yet listed)

So within 5 days the new laptop should (hopefully) be here.

BTW did I say that I have the best wife in the world?

Well, now I know where MY Pub membership funds are going...

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

It would take a hell of a lot more then that.

Luckily I work a good job. (and so does my wife)

at least you appreciate it. you do realize though that you are going to have to stop shopping for birthday and anniversary presents at that dollar store i took you to last year. Somehow I don't think that a can opener or potholder will be good enough.
