[G4DP]

The live feature is the worst it has been in years. Who ever it is has had way to much coffee this morning.

UK people. Lion will be £20.99. Available July.

EDIT: PC free! yay!

 

[roadbloc]

At last. iOS is no longer PC dependant.

 

[mrbunglez]

Features of ios 5 actually look like jailbreak apps

 

[irwcll94]

Mobile Me is down for maintenance and iCloud.com is now rerouting to Apple!

 

[gramirez2012]

If Lion is App Store only, then that pretty much means you can't do a clean install without reinstalling SL first. Fail.

not sure if anyone already posted this: apple developer iphone pages are 'down' with the classic 'we will be back soon'

Will they be doing a family pack?

Wireless syncing, nice

I think that is where they got a lot of there insperation. Look to others to find answers to some of the issues.

So far not to bad with all the updates and features.

I also like the fact you don't need a puter now to activate your iDevice.

 

[Pink∆Floyd]

OTA Updates...will they be mandatory?

 

[AaronEdwards]

Developing the iphone 5.

They lack multitasking too?

 

[arkitect]

At last. iOS is no longer PC dependant.

Finally something worth the wait and hype.
That is good news.

new keyboard looks an awful lot like the windows 8 thumbs keyboard.

feels like Windows/other companies finally realized they need to showcase well before Apple does so they don't get pigeonholed as "copycats"

 

[tigress666]

What if we want to connect to itunes (basically my computer downloads stuff faster so when I want updates, especailly ones I'm not in a hurry for, I'd rather download them from itunes and whenever I synch up have it update the apps)?

Also, they are still allowing me to backup my iphone to my computer right? I want a backup of my iphone!

I doubt it. You can do a clean install of Snow Leopard without having Leopard installed.

 

[adztaylor]

Delta updates, finally.

I wish!

 

[mrbunglez]

About time they did delta updates i really hated updating the whole thing and waiting hrs.

One copy can be used on as many Macs as you own...

I like the camera shortcut... now I have a space on the favorites bar to put some other app (camera was on there cause when you want to take a picture a lot of times you need to get to the camera as fast as possible. But it's not necessarily one of my more used apps).

There have been times that I missed a great photo because I could not get to the camera app in time. This looks nice!

 

[AlligatorBloodz]

Gamecenter is brilliant. But ugly GUI.

As many Macs as you own, as long as it's only five.

 

[AbyssImpact]

They just copied Xbox Live's achievement points. Microsoft should sue!

 

[Saturnine]

BBM for IOS! iMessage

I hope....
