I know this is fake but...I mean...some really good ideas in there.
Like after reading this I'm suddenly dissappointed in iOS5
Got to love the way some developers stick to their NDAs! Of course I realize this was an official press release:rolleyes:
I'm so tired of reading this comment in every post about betas.You are on a website called macrumors.com that deals with rumors, leaks and pre-release info. I honestly cannot even comprehend why people come here to post comments like this, it's ridiculous.
I would like to see iTunes get back to music only. If you think about it iTunes, which was for music now runs all the iPhone and iPad apps. It's too much clutter.
I agree. Now defunct iSync would've been a good vehicle for managing mobile devices.
You might want to obscure your name and phone number on that screenshot.
and serial #.
Good GOD Dude...you're gonna have the whole world calling you now!
Way to re-post his link. :rolleyes:
