Cro-Mag Rally, why couldn't that have stayed dead in the OS 9 days. When will someone make a native hypercard player for the iPhone?

Well, I know it's not Mario Kart (or whatever it's called) but... online/wifi multiplayer?

Mobile Me! Thank you, I've been aching for such a program for so long. I can't wait to find out more about the program. Hopefully you can use 3rd party email addresses.

Re: WWDC Keynote Live Blog
Like I posted on the articles page.
I believe that was the lamest WWDC keynote in Apple History. All iPhone BS, wheres Mac related stuff? Lame, lame, lame. I thought leopard being delayed last year from iPhone was bad, my god no. Now the computers have taken backseat with the OS. WTF
Well I wasn't the only one disappointed in Apples in direction. Shares are down 8.50 as of 3:08pm ET Serves Apple right, stop all this focus on your little toy and get back to business.
So it turns out there is no prize for alphabetizing my spices.

Re: WWDC Keynote Live Blog
That Keynote was a wild let down. They recapped the SDK announcement for half the time, they talked about a few games. blah blah BUT why the heck would they not release a 32gb iphone when the touch has had that option for months. With everything the iphone can do the lousy 16gbs of storage is a joke imho.
3g-its about time
GPS- thats cool
Enterprise/MobileME - I'll pay the $99 a yr
8gb-16gb - BS/Deal Breaker
I am most likely going to wait for a real storage version such as 32gb AT LEAST, or SD card support.

Come On, no new hardware or software announcements. No talk about how much of the user base upgraded to Leopard or how much the sales of macs increased over last year. And what about news with the new iTunes same day dvd movie download service.

whoah whoah why the anger? A lot of people have been waiting for this day for a long time, basically since the iPhone was introduced.
I can't even get an iPhone as I still have 1 year left with a CDMA carrier, but I was still really excited to see all these announcements.
Anyway, before you smurf a brick, Steve said he would be demoing "Snow Leopard" after lunch (that's how he referred to it). So keep your pants on and wait an hour or two.

Hmm... $199 ain't bad. But can I use it with Sprint?

Re: WWDC Keynote Live Blog
I wonder if you can just swap out your sim cards from the old iPhone to the new one. Without having to reset your contract that is.
