I am not sure why people are so obsessed with the IPhone 3gS,
particularly in the UK since the tarrifs are rediculously priced.
The reasons why in my view it is good are

Simon, first the iDisk can reside on the machine or not. This is a
preference in System Preferences under the Mobile Me tab. Now here are
some things to consider. First if you keep a copy of your iDisk on
your Mac, you will give up 20Gb of drive space. Since I just use my

I think that whether we love it or hate it, touch screen technology is
going to become more prevalent as time passes, and the blind community
in general terms will have to adapt as a basic requirement now that
the technology is becoming accessible.

My next computer will probably be a Mac but I was thinking an iMac or
Minny. It'd be nice if Apple produced a trackpad in place of the mouse.

My wife who is low vision has one, has all along. I spent a few hours
yesterday working with it, under VO. At first I had a time with the
keyboard. But then the more I used it the better I got. And when I
turned on key echo I really improved. I have BIG hands, and fat
thumbs. But really st
Oh it is possible a future keyboard may include or take the place of a
standard keyboard. You just never know what is going to come out of

I for one embrace any new technology because I see it as a challenge
and a way to learn something new. Additionally, I also see this as an

The Touch seems much more affordable too. It won't be called the 3G
though as with it not being a phone it won't receive 3G signals.

My manager and I went over to the ATT store yesterday to play with 3GS

Hi list:
I'm running the latest Safari update and I've just encountered a

This is the 1ST time I've experienced and problems with any of the
Safari versions.
When I try to access the apple store from the apple.ca site, Safari
crashes.
Anyone else experience this? What's a possible fi
Actually the type of tap where you put one finger down and tap with
the other is a split tap. Double tap litterly means tap with two
fingers and there is a oh rhythm to it if you will. All and all it
really sounds impressive and I can't wait to get my grubby hands on
one. :)

Perhaps initially, but there is always a possibility that some form of

This is a known problem.
Use Webkit's nightly builds. The store works just fine if you access

See, actually, I love switch to GUI interfaces the minute they came on.
I mean, I still do command-line when I have to but this is not for
leisure.
Do agree with you about touch screens though. We can't avoid them --
this is why I applaud Apple for their efforts. I was just pointing out
