I'd rather pay and get upgrades than have the developer abandon the app because it isn't profitable to do anymore free updates. What should Loren do when everyone that will buy Tweetie already has it? Develop updates out of the goodness of his heart?
The app store has a problem, and that's the amount of crap and cheapness of that crap. It drives the price of everything down. Factor in that ALL upgrades are free and you have a major problem for devs. You can sell an app once to each user, at next to nothing cost, and that's all you get. Yes, initially it's good when you're selling 100K apps a week but what happens when everyone's bought your app? The app store has a sustainability problem, and it will soon rear it's ugly head.
Compare it to desktop software where even the most basic apps cost $10+ and all upgrades are paid.
I'm quite happy to pay Loren �1.79 every 8-12 months for his work on Tweetie because frankly it's amazing and �1.79 is pretty much nothing.
The problem with most whambulance drivers such as yourself is pretty much the same problem with society at large. You only care about yourself and what you can get for yourself regardless if it's at the expense of others. You have no social responsibility. People's inability to look past their own nose and care about others is really quite pathetic. You don't care if Loren gets paid for his work, or for a sustainable app store. Rather you simply care for how cheaply you can get apps and updates. The self-centredness, the "me me me"-ness of society has become quite a problem IMO.

You might look into Freenode. They do have a little bit of bureaucracy, but they do try to keep it down to what's necessary.

Can't say I've had any of those issues. I did have one issue with 4.3, and then with 4.3.1 with crazy battery drain. Turned out to be a hosed up Exchange thing. I deleted the email acct, and recreated it and poof. Battery issue fixed.
Looking forward to the "several enhancements" though. Wonder what those are??? :cool:

I tried the Toy Camera effect for this photo, unfortunately it showed up some water marks on my 50mm lens at the time of taking the photo. I retouched them, but it means I think some photos from August/September have these blemishes...

i just installed it and then i read this which scares me...
anyone else have this problem?
I've installed two or three versions of Sidetrack on my Powerbook now and have been using Sidetrack for about a year and have never had a singele problem. It's been such a staple that it's irritating when I use another laptop, much like Quicksilver - heck I even try to open Quicksilver using Quicksilver when I have to restart it! :p - so give it a go. I'm sorry to hear that another user had problems but it's been nothing less than perfect for me and the hot corners are great! :)

so, the thing is, tomatocart has payment modules and i want to charge customers for the "pay on delivery" option, which is not supported, hence i have to edit the module itself.
i quote from TomatoCart's guides:
The payment php files in the �/includes/modules/payment/� are responsible for rendering payment information for customers and handling payment gateway notifications; the files in the �/admin/includes/modules/payment/� contains the configuration options to configure the payment module. And each payment method also have a language resource XML file in the �/includes/languages/LANGUAGE_CODE/ modules/payment/�.
so i basically have to edit the first two files, the one in "admin" and the one in "includes", and then update the language files...
i'm uploading the three files in folders that denote their location in a zip file.
i've edited the "admin" cod (cash on delivery) file and added the following, basically taken from a shipping method, that includes cost details (i'm adding the file in the zip file):
$osC_Database->simpleQuery("insert into " . TABLE_CONFIGURATION . " (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order, date_added) values ('Payment Cost', 'MODULE_PAYMENT_COD_COST', '3.50', 'The payment cost for all orders using this payment method.', '6', '0', now())");

What icon/theme is that?
I know I'm asking 3 people the same question, but those are all very great looking icons.

Its never a good thing when the guy behind the reason we buy Mac's leaves. :(
Maybe. Maybe it won't matter at all. People who "manage" are not the people who actually "do". Unlike the common beliefs, those products are team efforts and not the brain children of a single person.
If OS X stops being good, we can still use Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris or even Windows. Ubuntu Linux might not be as "awesome, magical, beautiful" as Mac OS X, but it has become an amazingly great - and FREE! - operating system, so I'm not in the least concerned about the future of OS X and Apple. My life doesn't depend on the products of that company in Cupertino.

TJ Maxx bought them at retail to sell in their stores.
They're definitely taking a loss. A very limited-run loss.
Earlier this week, a small number of T.J.Maxx and Marshalls stores received a very limited quantity of first quality electronic tablets that were sourced from a retailer.http://tech.fortune.cnn.com/2010/11/19/how-to-get-on-steve-jobs-naughty-list/

I was so excited to buy one today! and its not as if i can even buy one form the usa and unlock it because of its integration with the cingular network...god im annoyed and upset

Here is a video (http://www.the-daily-record.com/news/article/5000213) (not the best quality) from the press conference in which the two Ohio reps present their case to the media. It's a half hour long, and I skimmed though it, but the firt four minutesd of it lays out the case in it's essentials. The issues with the death penalty that this bill would address:
