Nice writeup! Now I don't have to waste bandwidth on downloading the guide. As for the missing features I just don't understand why Apple doesn't man up to the situation and let us have them! Its not like it requires some advanced coding to add stuff like Video recording, note syncing, and whatever else you have mentioned above. As for playlists, I seriously don't understand why Apple doesn't allow creating playlists on the go. That is, permanent playlists. We do after all have a nice keyboard to type the names, rearrange the songs and do whatever else to it, so that it can finally sync back to the Mac. And while I understand they don't want you to share music via bluetooth, what's wrong with Photo sharing? I hope they at least open it up for game developers to have some multiplayer action going on...

I wholeheartedly agree that digital cameras these days. They claim to be simple to use, yet my mom is more comfortable with those ones with the film in them. Then there's the horrible design for these things. The USB cable plugs in such, that there is no way but to hold the camera in my hand while the pictures transfer. Constant removing of the battery makes those cheap china-made plastic latches weak and eventually after a year they just come off. This is the sorry state of cameras these days. However, I don't see how Apple fits into this. I just don't see it (Not sure why, but I just don't see it). I just don't. Pro cameras on the other hand do their job pretty well. They are not meant to be simple and they produce awesome pictures.

A very nice writeup I must say. Although I'm not sure where my stance is with regard to the OLPC project, I am with you in saying that either this Lyons dude stops his fake fake steve blog or go back to the good ol' days (read: Microsoft bashing!). The blog as I see it has become just another opinion blog and he seems to have a problem with just about anything. Also, his killer posts have already been exhausted. How much can one man write? He should have stopped the moment his identity was revealed.

All this stuff makes me wonder, will I get some form of steady internet on my mac? Will I be stuck with dialup for the rest of my life? If every man's one hope is not to die a virgin, mine is that I may for once get some form of steady internet at home. Great writeup btw, particularly about fluid. I had heard about the app, and then forgotten the name.
