1. Clear identification of hard news.
2. Post-facto analysis of rumor sources to the point some become more trusted over time than others.
3. Concatination of various sources onto one site so comparisons and an overview can be achieved.

I need assistance
Touch-a touch-a touch-a touch me
I wanna be dirty
Thrill me, chill me, fulfill me

Please download the Annual Report, This whole iPhone thing is way past tiresome. I love Apple as much as the next MacRumors Zealot, but I want to see something other than another iPhone story on page 1!
Why are ads even out
I've heard so much about the iPhone from the news that I'm suprised that Apple has even worried about advertising... I do like the comercials though My iPhone Commercial😀

#1 Why is this considered Page One News on Mac Rumors?
#2 What's with the crazy over-moderation on this site? I've never seen anything like it anywhere else. And that includes sites whose forums are filled with more well-informed posts. Like Slashdot, for one, which has an entire Apple section. I find myself going there more and more.
Of course, I'm sure this post will be censored because I mentioned another website and didn't say how great this one was. Oh my!

Turns out, when you get to the coast line of America the world doesn't end. (Who'd have thought it, eh?)
As I'm not in America I ain't seen it, and now I have. This makes me happy.
Thanks MR. 🙂

You have to be kidding me,
I understand macrumours providing coverage of the iphone but a Front Page rumour story is that there is a ad in a paper for the iphone???
Doesnt iphone have its own page for these things so why not put it there its hardly a mac rumour!
MacRumours has gone to the extent to create a top level page (something which has never been done for a apple product)........
use it! surely we dont want the story in 15 places just one will do

I cannot believe there is a thread whining about an Apple ad story, if you don't like it don't read it, now if there was a story about the differences between the Newsweek and National Geographic ad's 🙄.
Like it or not, Apple ads have always been front-page news. This has been true for years. (iPod Ads, Get a Mac ads, iPhone Ads, Superbowl Ads etc...).
News threads are for the discussion of that news item. Competely off-topic posts on news threads are deleted ("first post!"), related but still off-topic threads are split ("why is this on page 1").

I think you underestimate the significance of the iPhone, in the grand scheme.
MacRumors = Apple News and Rumors. It's been true for 7 years. If you want MacBook or Mac Pro only news, you can visit:

http://macbookpro.macrumors.com/
I'm tired of making excuses. I know some people don't care about the iPhone, but 50% of people don't care about the MacBook, or the Mac Pro but that doesn't mean we are going to stop reporting on them. iPhone is a big part of what Apple's doing, and will be news for months/years to come. If you want a Mac-only news site, you can use those subsections... but you'll be hard pressed to find an Apple-related site that is not covering the iPhone.
I guarantee you we'll be sick of Leopard stories the weeks surrounding Leopard's release. This is how news works.

I appreciated the post because I hadn't seen the ad yet, and I enjoy seeing all of Apple's ads. Also, as has been stated, the World doesn't end on the East or West coast of the United States. There are plenty of folks from other countries on this forum, so I'm sure some of those folks appreciated it as well.
If you don't like it then don't read it and move on. Simple as that.
