I went into the Irvine Spectrum store last Thursday and they had 32gigs. Picked one up on the spot. Best Buy and Radio Shack are still waiting for theirs.
Mission Viejo had 32's and 16's. I got mine a few days ago. :D I was surprised at how many they got because At least 10 people were in line ahead of me.

And? They are still losing marketshare. Apple is growing much slower than the market. And yes Android ships more *phones* than Apple ships *total* iOS *devices* (iPhone, iPod touch, iPad) per quarter (40 million Android smartphones compared to 33 million iOS devices).
Again google ships nothing at all. Show me data indicating a single quarter where a major version of Android was shipped on 40 million compatible units and then you can start making iOS comparisons.
THis whole concept of iOS and Android being the same kind of thing or worse iPhone and Android being the same sort of thing is beyond absurd. There is no way a reasonably informed person buys into it.
Billions of dollars in App sales versus millions of dollars in app sales is all you really need to care about when we discuss platforms..

Keep in mind that Mr. Eaton is a professional. He shoots with a full frame camera that yields large file size images. Think about what you are going to be doing with photography before you jump into all this. The setup you are thinking of buying - the Mac Pro - is easily expandable. If you start with two drives, you still have room for two more. I have a MBP that came with a 250Gb drive. That was good for a year before I upgraded it to a 500 Gb one. The old drive is in an external enclosure and serves as a photo backup of my Aperture file vault. I have a 1TB external drive for Time Machine, and that backs up everything on my system. This is my hobby and I probably shoot around 200 images in an average month, more during good weather. I have a Canon XSi and will move to a 7D in a year or so.
Just my 2k worth.
Edit: My advice is to not configure your setup as an end all right out of the gate. Storage technology is rapidly evolving, and what you dump all that money on may be obsolete in two years. Thunder Bolt will lead to fiber optics being standard and solid state drives will replace disc drives before you know it.

Thanks Dale. I did not know Mr. Eaton is a professional, but he has a point about storage space. I am thinking about a 500 GB-750 GB HDD for photos and scratch disc. I have a point and shoot camera right now. I mess around with the provided software. I am an entry level photographer. :)
My modified original plan is for a Mac Pro:
1. 120 SSD for my boot drive, including OS and software: bay 1
2. 320 GB- 500 GB to backup the boot drive: bay 2.
3. 500 GB-750GB drive for photo storage and scratch disc: bay 3
4. the OEM 1 TB to backup the photo/scratch disc drive: bay 4.
So bay 2 and 4 are backup drives, while bay 1 and 3 are productivity drives.
I did not factor in any type of RAID or an external storage drive(s.) I learned that OS X has striping or a generic RAID built into the OS, which is beneficial for many people.
Another question, SR20DETDOG stated I do not need a 7200 rpm drive for storage and that makes sense, but if I am using the drive as storage and scratch disc, then should I buy a 7200 rpm drive?
I am neither belittling SR20DETDOG nor questioning his or her logic, but I think about getting more use from one drive is economical. Plus, I have posted my backup plan, so folks can view my intentions.
I am pricing drives and I am disappointed that 250 GB-320 GB drives cost more or is equal to a 500 Gb drive. Again the 500 GB drives are priced within a $10.00 USD price range of a 750 GB drive. I though 250 GB and 320 GB drives would be cheaper, but what do I know? :confused:

You know the LG Chocolate for Verizon has that type of technology...

You can't see the buttons, but on the bottom left and right corners, there are touch sensitive buttons.
I tested it at the Verizon store.

New here, and planning to purchase a new mac mini for next school year. Here are some question, hope someone can help me out. I had already read some of this, but still want to make sure.
I would use for school work, some graphic designing, music composing, and of course a bit gaming.
2.4GHz or 2.66GHz ? Would it be different of the performance?
Would like to upgrade ram, a little question that on the apple website is "8GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM (add $300...)", and I saw someone said this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231294
would be work fine, is it?
I had already got a bluetooth keyboard with said work with windows, mac, android etc. could it be work? and might also a bluetooth mouse I use with windows right now.. I know it kind of dum question, but just want to make sure and save some money.
About the applecare, should i buy it as well or not? If not, could I buy it like 11 months after i purchase the mac mini?
Thanks for reading my questions, and all of the answers :)
The processor upgrade isn't going to buy you a lot more performance. Regarding the ram, Newegg would be a smarter place to buy it for sure but all in all, I wouldn't recommend you get 8 gigs. 4 gigs is more than enough for most users. You can buy Applecare 11 months down the road. Any bluetooth OR usb keyboard and\or mouse will work.

You mean my spouse's Rodgers drums were double kick? I better let them know. ;)
baha nah not like that, not the actual act of having two bass drums.. just the action of using two kick pedals in a song - i.e. double kick. thats what australian drummers refer to it as, i guess its different in the US/etc. :confused:

I'm a web developer so I use the Activity a LOT but some time ago it stopped working
I have a list of windows/tabs but when I open each page, it lists no file... no image, no css, not even the html/php itself... this happens for any domain or localhost
If the page has some kind of external call it load like a subitem but its empty as well. For example, if I have an iframe it makes a subpage but when I open it, the arrow goes down but nothing appears...
I'm lost here, have no idea what's happening. I already tried running AppleJack and did nothing
Any ideas?

I came home from work, turned on the TV and sat there watching the events unfold in disbelief. I didn't know how to react but i do remember being extremely angry. It was just shocking.
We'd just been in New York two years prior to 9/11. I'd recored the whole trip with my video camera. A short bit of it included the Trade Centre ... standing right at the bottom looking straight up.
On September 14th I was at a Radiohead concert in Belfast. Thom Yorke dedicated Street Spirt "to all the Americans trying to get back home".
Very moving.

I thought the Play and Charge Kit doubles as a USB cable for the controller... :confused:
no. it allows you to play whilst your charging. it does not convert your controller into a wired controller - all the usb is doing is sending power.

I hate how you have to download the entire OS every time there's a small update like this. 666MB for a few bug fixes... Also, what's up with the 666MB? Maybe we should stay away from this update guys lol.
