Haha, that's cool. I like how it isn't a flamebait website and how it is professional. A lot of the features requests are ones that haven't been mentioned often. I know that Apple doesn't listen to it, but there are some good ideas on there. A lot of them are easy to implement (camera has whole screen clickable).

I'm pretty sure that the Safari cache size thing can't be done, because I believe it only caches to available RAM.

(Writing to flash would be slow, and use up its limited write cycles)

Any jailbroke hackers around that can confirm the flash file system isn't used for cache?

Wow, excellent website. Good work! And some really good suggestions. Let's hope Apple takes it seriously.

Agreed, it's well done and it's nice to see a place where these shortcomings can be aired without the usual eye-rolling and sarcasm from the unimaginative and short-sighted that plague this mess of a site.

I bet we won't see Push Notifications until MacWorld.

I can see it now...

Steve Jobs: Welcome! Thanks for coming. We've got a lot of awesome things to talk about this year. First, let's take a look at iPhone sales. We're proud to announce that as of October 2008, we have broken our 1% goal for marketshare!

[applause and people cheering for some reason]

Steve Jobs: But now we're here to make it even better. Here to talk about our new awesome feature, is this guy, head of Push Services, which is a totally new division at Apple. We made a whole division for it, can you believe it?

Some Guy: Thanks Steve. We here at the Push division have been working long and hard to give you these awesome work-arounds for background apps. Because this just doesn't work: [shows image of windows task manager, waits for laughing]

[???]

Some Guy: Uhh... [ahem]... so yeah, yes... Push services. Let me show you how it works. We think this is going to revolutionize the way services work, by taking one huge chunk of code, and machining out the useless bits. We call it... Uniblocking.

[shows factory]

And this is how it's done.

[1 hour later]

Steve?

Steve Jobs: Thanks, some guy. Isn't that amazing? Now, just one more thing.... Push Notifications.... will be online in March! Thanks for coming!

^ haha waiting for laughs when showing a pic of task manager. reminds me when Steve was like "and Here is the new desktop for Leopard" and some of the crowd laughs becuase they think its a Vista knock-off. humour at those events has to be very simple and while very smart at the same time.

A friend just told me about this site... it's got some good points that I never really thought of, but now that I know... I want.

Hehe. Nice site design too and the webapp is very clean.
