It's too bad people don't research existing threads before posting new ones. Here's a thread with the same subject and there is another.

Research it some more? The subject line of the original post "Did anyone else notice this?" is rather ambiguous, and you wouldn't assume to find it there.

As my capacity as an Apple helper I mentioned it to the kbase people. Looks like it was a typo. Yep, they fixed it.

That's why you have that search button right next to the home button in the upper right of your screen while browsing this forums.

OK...I searched by the Apple article number and nothing showed up...I then thought for a second, what if I searched the keywords modem update...strangely this thread didn't come up but your other one and another did come up about 1.5 Ghz. So searching also demands thinking what possible keywords need to be used. I would have to know the people posting and what they'd say. It sometimes works, it doesn't always....the search is only as successful as the thought of the original query. Make your headlines more informative, and then people will know whether or not a discussion has already posted. Of course if it is on another similar board you'll never see it either!

This is just like when one of the retailers was advertising the 867, 1, and 1.25GHz and accidentally left out the "2" in 1.25 so it read 1.5 and everyone was going crazy about the possibility of an upgrade. Doh!
