I can understand people's impatience with Apple for not having a complete AppleWorks replacement already, but if you look at their long term plans for iWork it makes perfect sense. If you start out with a solid foundation it is easier to make improvements so follow my thinking:
"iWork '03"
Keynote 1
iWork '05
Keynote 2 - improvements
Pages 1 - introduced and is a cross between a word processor and a page layout program. Handles the basics of both well but lacks "pro" features
iWork '06
Keynote 3 - improvements
Pages 2 - gets table cell formulas, sorting, number formatting (preparation for spreadsheet app), comments (colaboration), thumbnail view (page finding, ordering, deleting), address book support (mail merge), endnotes, automatic text correction, and general improvements to features already there.
iWork '07
Keynote 4 - improvements
Pages 3 - gets modes which separates word processing tasks/items from page layout tasks/items (reduced clutter), ability to create custom formulas.
Spreadsheet 1 - can import/read Excel data, save as/export to Excel file, basic reporting, there will be a way supply the charts in Keynote and Pages with data, plus whatever Apple adds
iWork '08
Keynote 5 - improvements
Pages 4 - word processing and page layout tasks are improved to the point where they are looking like two separate apps
Spreadsheet 2 - general improvements, reporting feature gets most improvement by being able to "drill" down through pie charts.
iWork '09
Keynote 6 - improvements
Pages 5 - improved to the point where it is only a word processor now.
Page Layout 1 - "New" app that has broken away from Pages and is now the "iApp" of DTPs. This could happen in iWork '08.
Spreadsheet 3 - Gets ODBC support
Database 1 - most likely SQLite, or equivalent, with a sweet front-end. Hopefully, it will be a true RDBMS and not something like what came with AppleWorks.
Reports 1 - (ie Crystal Reports) This is a stretch but if not a separate app then more of an "engine" that is used by the spreadsheet and database apps.
I do not use Keynote which is why I only entered "improvements" next to it.

That's good advice. Alternatively, if you just want to store the files as data, don't forget that the iPod also acts as a Firewire HD, so you can store them as both music and data, if you have the room. In iTunes, click the "Enable Firewire HD mode" in the iPod settings. It will appear on the desktop as a storage device then.

Anyone notice that Volume Logic does not work in iTunes 7 or is that just me?
Well, I do know the Volume Logic is **still** in Beta testing for Intel Macs. I wasn't aware that VL for the PowerPC chips. was encountering playback problems.

It is exactly the same. I even tried putting my iMac on the DMZ in my router to see whether a totally exposed machine helps, but not so.
You are running a Apple router and I am running a Linksys with the stock firmware. I will screw around a bit more in both my mac and the router and see whether I can sort something out and keep you guys posted.
Disable the VPN server software then reboot your mac and enable the software, then test connecting.

Hi. I need some help with a malfunctioning color stylewriter 2500. Whenever I try to make a test page, it just passes through the printer without printing anything. I've already replaced the ink cartridges. Any ideas?

I think im the only person who thinks that a peice of equipment the size of a deck of cards that holds over 15k songs is NOT too big??? I have a 40G pod and I wouldn't want it any smaller...If I needed a pod with more storage I would buy a 60G in a heart beat
You posted just as I was finishing off my post. Just wanted to agree with what you said. I've got a 2G 20gb model (nearly full) and if it wasn't for the fact that I'm saving up for an iBook I'd have bought one already.

What did you read and where?
I don't remember the paper, but my friend gets it delivered in Draper.
It said you guys were up playing games on a projector and smoking meat or something. Sounded like a pretty good time lol.
I showed up at 4:15PM and was behind about 900+ people!

Yeah what exactly would a ticket do?
They give out tickets at Best Buy to avoid having you stand in line for the last hour I guess lol. They should just hand those tickets out at 10AM.

That's good advice, I've been doing it with sites I make for a year or so now. I also add a <no script> where I put the email address (without a link) and @ replaced with [AT]. Just in case any random people happen by that don't have javascript enabled.

I like 1Password (http://agilebits.com/products/1Password/Mac) for archiving my serial numbers and other passwords. You can even store the email in 1Password as reference.
For archiving check out Mail Archiver X (http://www.mothsoftware.com/drupalmoth/content/what-mail-archiver-x) It allows you to export and use their database for viewing so it's easy to find an old email. It also allows you to export in other formats as well like FileMaker. Works with Entourage, Eudora, Mail, Outlook, Postbox, Powermail, Thunderbird.
EagleFiler (http://c-command.com/eaglefiler/) is another option by the maker of SpamSieve that can archive your mail.
Both have demos.

All,
It was brought up in another thread, but I didn't want to completely hijack it for this purpose.
I spent a little (very little) time adding some links and information to the Cocoa FAQ. I changed the link text from the forum head to "How do I get started programming on the Mac?" to hopefully guide people there more readily, as newcomers may not know what Cocoa means.
I'd encourage everyone to beef up the FAQ to include more iPhone specific examples, and links to any helpful tutorials, etc.
I think it would be good to have a "one-stop shop" for newcomers instead of us posting essentially the same answers to the "I want to write apps for the iPhone. I've never programmed/never programmed for the Mac before, where do I start?" type questions over and over again. Instead I think having a solid reference would go far, so questions are more like "Why doesn't the first class I wrote work?" where we can actually provide helpful guidance instead of continually spewing the same answers to the same questions ad infinitum.
If you guys have the time, try to beef the Cocoa FAQ more to make it a real resource. There were some links, and I tried to add more, to make it more complete.

hmm to me it says "A9 toolbar released for Mozilla Firefox" not camino :P
well I tried it out, it definately is a bit bulky, but not my cup of tea since the search box on firefox does the job well

There is also the ipod part that plays video and music :rolleyes:
What do you plan on doing on an iPod touch without the Internet? The only thing I can think of is the handful of games that let you multiplayer over wifi....

I will be there.
But I keep forgetting which subway station is the closest stop to the 5th Ave store...
The N & R are about 2 blocks away

Try putting it into DFU mode and then connecting to iTunes. I had similar problems once.
Tiny Umbrella may also be of use, depending on where it gets stuck in the restore process. If it's right at the end (when the white bar on the screen is meant to make it all the way across the screen but somehow doesn't), try just using TU to kick the ipad out of restore mode.

i really doubt that people will be camping out front of the cap hill overnight. last year i showed up around 7 or so, and was like 6th in line. i know that this is at 8am instead of 5pm, but still - people are gonna wanna get up around the same time, in my opinion.
