And Apple having your address, phone number, e-mail address, creditcard is fine with you? And if yes, why is ok for Apple to have this information but not for the FT?
The difference is not whether or not they have it, the difference is whether or not they can sell it to "Companies which offer something they think I might be interested in".

Hi,
I'm going on holiday next month to Turkey, and I'd love to be able to use the GPS in my iPhone 4 to locate me. Problem is, I don't really want to pay the ridiculous data costs to use the in built Maps app.
Is there an app out there with maps of Turkey, which can locate me on that map without the use of any cellular data?

Thanks

sad that old people dont want their children having sex when they are both old enough, or sad that those two are haveing sex?
Ok, I am 47. And if the poster were my my son and living under my roof, I am not sure how I would respond, to be honest.
To today, to paraphrase IIRC Chris Rock (or maybe Eddie Murphy), in my youth a shot cured you, but this ****** kills.". In my youth we did not have AIDS or Herpes, and most anything else was cured by a shot.
It is important that parents give a consistent and clear message of expecttions. A "blast" from my "past"; My best bud (mate) and I took our gf's to his gf's parents beach house the summer we graduated (my bud's parents were there with us).
We had gone to the beach late at night' but my bud's gf expressed concern that her parents were known to take late night beach walks. So that killed any thoughts we had of beach "fun". So we went back to the house. Ended up playing a board game. My bud's gf's parents came out and suggested that we quit the game, and maybe go down to the beach instead.
Talk about mixed messages!
The key is, and we don't still know all the details, is that the poster is 18. Is he still in HS? If he is the law is vague as to the "responsibilities" his parents still have legally till he graduates. If he has graduated from HS, then I take the perspective that my Dad had when I was "under age". "Either ist is my way, or the highway".
I am saying this only because it seems that the posters parents have reservations on this sleep over (thanks Sun Baked for the heads up). I am not so sure how I would respond if these two were my son or daughter.
So glad that I don't have any children. For if I had a daughter, she might be locked up in the attic till she was 35 [joke]. And my son would have been made fearful of "going all the way". For it was such a talk by my Dad, that made me think twice before getting stupid. And this was before people thought about suing for anything and everything.

I was having the same issue. I finally called AT&T, after 20 minutes of trying to add the feature to my account the rep told me he'd call me back after looking into it some more. About 15 minutes later he called back and said it still wasn't working and that he and others would need to do some extended research into the matter and that he would call me back when they were done. That was several hours ago.
I have the 450 minute plan for $39.99 and the 2 GB Data Pro with 1000 messages at the moment. I also get a FAN discount, but I doubt that would be screwing things up.
I have the same minute plan, with the unlimited data plan, and a FAN - I had no trouble switching the messaging option over this morning.

Okay here's the single coolest program ever. It's so cool that Apple should have thought of it.
Delicious Library (http://www.delicious-monster.com/)
It's a media library. It will make an index with images and information of all your Books, CDs, DVDs, Games, and more.
To get them in you can do a search, enter the barcode, by voice input, or best of all hold the bar code up to your iSight camera and it will read the barcode.
Once you have the data in it's like iTunes with lives searches, personal ratings, and custom playlists (collections). Also you have the ability schedule and checkout items to friends and family and do the scheduling via integrating with Address Book and iCal.
Last but not least is the ability to Sync this information with your iPod.
These are just the features I thought were the coolest there are more including bluetooth functions. Definitely check it out.

I got a weird bug. Sometimes my albums in the photos app go right to the top of the screen and show underneath the 'menubar' at the top so I can tap on it and open the first album in the list. If I pull it back down on the rubberband effect it still goes to the top of the screen?! I have to restart my phone for it to reset and its still hit and miss whether it works.
Same here, happens all the time to me now.
Glad to know I'm not alone!

Why does it take a media storm for Apple to open up on an issue ? It would be so much better if they more forthcoming and frank before an issue snowballs.

Jobs: If people don�t want to participate in things, they will be able to turn location services off. Once we get a bug that we found fixed, their phone will not be collecting or contributing any crowdsourced information. But nor will it be calculating location.
Schiller: Sometimes it helps people to understand an analogy that describes what these things are like because they are so new. I would think an analogy of a crowdsourced database is every time you walk into a retail store, many retailers have a clicker that counts how many people come in and out of the store. Nobody really cares about that because it is completely anonymous. It is not personal data. It is not anything to worry about. It�s not something that people feel is private because it is really not about them. It�s a coagulated total of all traffic. These crowdsourced databases are sort of like that.
_____________________________________________________________
The first part is the worlds best CEO saying "even though last time we told you turning off location services would prevent this and it didn't, this time when we tell you you can believe us"
The second part is the head of the worlds best marketing department saying "you know what, even after you ask us not to do something and we still do it, it's no biggie. It's all good because the data is ANONIMIZED!. Just to make it seem harmless I will make an inane analogy to a turnstile at a store."
Except in your analogy the the turnstile is strung around the customers neck and clocks everywhere the he or she goes.
No biggie...in fact this is all very technical and I am sure that if you explained it correctly I would be incapable of understanding.
I am most upset because I truly liked a lot about Apple. Now I feel disillusioned, more by the response than by the issue.

After using Tweetie 2 for a couple days I went back to the original. There's nothing in 2 I can't live without and Tweetie just looks better IMO.
Good thing I had it in my iTunes because it was gone from the store when I went to download it.

Reading through this thread, I was wondering how many people defending the iPad are actually aware of its inherent shortcomings for professional users , and have actually used programs like Photoshop .
The iPad was never meant to be used by professionals, it is not compatible with pro apps and devices on a basic level, like colour spaces, connectivity, file import/export, tethering, to name a few .
As it's been pointed out before, finger gestures are a crutch, not an enhancement, just like they were since the introduction of trackpads .
SJ called the iPad a post-PC computer - nothing could be further from the truth.
It might help to develop better input devices in the future, but right now Apple doesn't seem to be part of it, aiming their products at a retro oriented crowd which is merely asking for simplification, instead of progress.
Almost word-for-word, the exact same argument that was made by Luddites against these fancy, new-fangled mouse and GUI-based computers back in the mid-80s.

Sorry for the rant, but I felt like I needed to vent to fellow designers. Anyone else have any horror stories?:)
Some people will walk all over you if you let them. Send an email "on the previous job I was paid for 3 hours but my total time spent was actually xxx hours. I can't afford jobs like that, so if you want another job done, you'll have to agree that time spent on phone calls will be billed as well. " And buy a stopwatch.
Your job is not to produce graphics designs. Your job is to produce billable hours.
Hi. Thanks for the reply. I do have a pretty good archiving system. I have a folder untitled "freelance" and therein is a folder named after each client and then each project. The guy kind of threw me with the sudden weekend call. You're right about the phone time too. No more mister nice guy; there's no reason to cheat myself for billable meeting time when I'm already lowballing myself.:)
Add: "Weekend work, including phone calls is charged at double rate. Sunday work at triple rate. ".
