Spotlight: a fundamental component of OSX. Orientation lock/Mute switch: an irritation. Not sure how it's selfish to expect Apple to get important aspects of their fully fledged OS right before pissing around with a relatively insignificant switch. Each to his own though.
Got a tip for us?

What - you mean the one that disconnects you after a few minutes of online activity?!
Yup - me to...
I saw on yr site you were able to fix this by switching from dhcp to static in the network settings. Is this a stable fix?
Personally I'm going to wait this time around before I update. I bought my iPad to surf. I don't want an expensive paper wait thank you very much Apple.
Then you barely use it? Rotation lock for example when it is flat and even a tiny move can make it rotate?
As usual it think it knows best, but as usual when jailbroken this can probably be fixed in a couple of seconds. Together with multitasking (wich is still a lot better on jailbroken ipads) , sbsettings, info on lock screen, ... all things iOS should have had over a year ago but still lacks.
Just got an update for the app: Roman Catholic Calendar.
The change log was only: Compatible for iOS 4.2
It now crashes on the load screen on 4.1.
Either it went out too early or we will see 4.2 earlier than Friday.

Unacceptable Loss of AiPrint Functionality
The iPad will be severely limited without the ability to print to shared printers.The reality is that my workplace and home have many iPads. We have been using third party printing solutions which ar dodgy at best. An Apple solution would be perfect.
I can print to my home's or works various shared printers just fine via a laptop, and having that ability in my iPad is key to my productivity.
The loss of this feature is HUGELY disappointing and means the iPad in Enterprise is a harder sell. There is just too much that NEED to be printed to make it useful and buying all new printers is a huge waste of money, resources and time.
If Apple wants to leave in some support and call it a non feature and further refine it, then I can live with it. If they ABANDON it, many will be unhappy. I helped sell my firm (A Fortune 100) to get iPads and part of the appeal was simplistic printing.
I have had Macs since the 128K and loved them all (well, maybe not my Performa 6400). But it seems, even to an Apple fan, that they have dropped a lot of balls in recent months.
I ove my iPad and iPhone 4, but the iOS 4 for my 3G was a DOG. iLife was buggy as hell and trashed many a photo library. I had 3 27 inch iMacs due to screen defects. As they grow, they loose touch of a few things.
Perhaps Apple is growing TOO fast for their own good.

dude Airprint is there..its not being canned...this was miss information...
Its in the gold master..
I have a Iphone with no issues
I have a third gen Itouch with no issues
I have a Iphone 3G with no issues
I have a Ipad 64Gb 3G with no issues
I need a mac....so i can have no issues...issues all over the place with my dell laptop and desktop...
If it's not in the latest beta of 10.6.5 that some people claim, then it has been canned for the time being at least. It doesn't matter if it is in iOS or not.
When rolling out any update, IT departments have to make sure that everything is in place in order to support the million of people downloading the update. That is the case with Apple too.
Yep. Remember the MobileMe fiasco a few years ago? Apple wasn't prepared for the massive downloads for iOS and the people trying to log into the service after the changes were made. I think I got something like 3 months free service when it was all said and done.
Yeah thats strange that an app claims to be only 4.2 was released prior to iOS 4.2 being released en masse.
Although I'm not best pleased about this I'm also not that bothered.
Also, how can you complain about losing something you didn't have?
Also, and correct me if I am wrong, won't printing to supported wireless printers still work?
Actually, it's not the same thing. Holding down the volume button for a second mutes everything. The "mute" switch does not mute everything but rather certain system and app notifications.
The mute switch on the iPhone is for switching from the ringer to vibration mode.
The iPad does not ring, therefore the mute switch is not needed.
How can Apple not see this? Amazing how they can get so many things right and then blow it on something so simple.

The iPad still has speakers does it not? Instead of several presses on the rocker key to decrease the volume, you get a one flip with the mute switch.
Huh? Apple TV is running an older and highly customized version of iOS. There were never any plans to sync with with iOS for iPad and iPhone.
Never any plans to sync with iOS and for iPad and iPhone? Did I miss something about airplay? And I think Steve said iOS 4.2 was coming out on all iOS devices in November and that includes Apple TV
