Good thing I had it in my iTunes because it was gone from the store when I went to download it.
I bought Tweetie 1 when it first came out and have been relatively happy with it... now that I see Tweetie 2 is out, I was about to buy it ,when I noticed Tweetie 1 is no longer available. Doesn't anyone else see a problem with this? What happens if something happens to the Twitter API, forcing all developers of all platforms to rewrite some code. Wouldn't that mean the thousands of people who bought Tweetie 1 would be SOL?
I'm all for paying developers for coming out with newer versions of their software.. and people here are complaining about how the App Store buyers shouldn't be bitching about having to spend $3 here and there when normal Desktop apps can cost $10, $20, $30 etc.. but there's a difference... If I go to buy a Mac App, there's always the old version that I can download if I so choose.
I paid for Tweetie 1.. this means that if my computer goes, and I lose my downloaded version, i'll never be able to download it again? Or if i'm on the road and my iPhone has a problem and I want to re-download through the App Store, I can't? Sorry, but that's not acceptable to me.
Look at Pangea Software's Enigmo for example. I bought that and had fun with it. Enigmo 2 is out, but it's not replacing Enigmo... Both versions are available...
This is ridiculous. Especially when Loren and all his loyal followers are justifying the price because Tweetie 2 is a new app, not an upgrade. If that's the case then why is the app it's NOT replacing gone from the App Store?
This dude is scheisty. I wish I hadn't paid for either of his apps.

Umm...no- us getting loud about it is what caused awareness. Don't try to rewrite history- I lived through that crap and watched it happen.
When did a man and woman who are sterile ever produce children? You have no point and no ground to stand on. Bottom line- gay people have kids, that's a fact. Whether or not you choose to recognize it has very little to do with reality.
For those of you looking for just the kind of person I am talking about- well, here he is- CaoCao. CaoCao cannot be reasoned with or negotiated with. No matter what anyone says or proves, CaoCao does not care. He is interested in destroying, or at least settling for harming, people like me. He does not simply want to peacefully coexist and have an opinion. He wants us put in our place.
People didn't seem to care about the "gay plague" because it only affected gays. People cared about Ryan White and the Ray brothers, they didn't care about iniquitous obnoxious gays and lesbians.
So then they had sex with the person of opposite gender, they adopted or test tube baby.
I have no interest in destroying you, I have no interest in harming you. You imply I want to physically hurt homosexuals, but I do not.

I am a technology geek and have worked in the IT industry for over 20 years but I just don't 'get' Twitter ?
Afraid I'm missing something - can anyone enlighten me as to why Twitter is such a great thing ?:o
Think of twitter as something between online chat and forums. With the addition of twitter search and hash tags instant forums around a topic can be created.
Look at the trending twitter topics which generally follow the important things going on in the world at the moment.
A number of times I've been following an event or new TV programme I can instantly go on twitter and join in on a discussion about it.
Also the celebrity side of things is interesting, celebs can sign up and post info to their fans, but have complete control over who's messages they want to see.

Well, more like 175K sold... another 175K given away free. :D
You should tell that to my wife who has an Android phone and finds that it doesn't really even seem to be well adapted to phone-related situations. She's constantly having problems with it, particularly with freeze-ups and crashing.
I think it's more truthful to phrase your sentence like this. "Android is a powerful mobile OS that can be shoehorned into many situations but can do none of them very well."
Was it the phone she had issues with or android. It could just be a ***** phone running android. Or android sucks for her. I use android and i have no issues. I use a very cheap android phone at that so i should get plenty of random shutdowns but i never do.
My friend returned his HTC Desire HD and bought the iPhone 4. Android really cannot satisfy many users.
Thank you I totally agree with you Android cannot and will not satisfy everyone. Now you must also agree that WP7, Blackberry OS and iOS also cannot satisfy every user and that is why we have choices. Thank you so much because your statement is true about all the OSs. I had a friend with an iPhone 4, she being a normal college age girl took it back and got an android based phone.
Rest of the world says hi. This thread is about alleged stats for the US only. Android is caning the iPhone globally.
yes android is canning to iPhones world wide in terms of usage. Because you have to count everything for the android such as tablets, ereaders, Tvs and everything that is sold with a licensed version of android. But if you change your statement to Android Phones are are selling more then iPhones. Notice you cannot compare an OS to hardware.

I welcome this feature.
People want a layout with usability, not a design that looks just so. Still, both are easy to achieve if your skilled.
I always surf with my text zoomed at least one level which is available on every browser - this messes up more wabpages than it should. Some of my favorite websites have comment textareas with 3-4 lines of text and are as few as 20 characters wide. I always end up writing in Pages and copying into the textarea.

I dont follow apple like some of you do, but i do follow news. Just my 2 cents here to. Think about it if Apple keeps this phone hush till their conference and all these rumors about it being delayed think how many people are going to run out and get an IP4, they know what they are doing, and they are baiting out the impatient ones.

Killing hookers?? :eek:
Well given your other examples perhaps that just about describes the probable immaturity of an 18 old. Enough said in that case. :rolleyes:
I just don't understand this whole "he's 18 and and adult" routine. He may be 18 in the eyes of the law, but with no real life experience behind him I hardly think he can be considered mature enough to make adult decisions. What's with this whole "hey presto the law says your an adult so you your all grow up now" ??
So you'd rather his folks make all the big decisions for him and never let him become that adult?
Parents should be slowly divesting themselves of big, life decisions to their children as they grow. Yes, you can set rules of the house but you can't actually actively prevent him from doing something.

I have a grid of thumbnail images on my HTML page. When you click on an image, the background fades and a larger version of that chosen image pops up for better viewing. However, it pops up BEHIND the horizontal Menu Machine links. This menu bar stretches across the top of the page just under the main banner.
How can I fix it so the inflated image isn't obscured by the menu bar?

Exactly, Apple wouldn't care if you did. What you sold would be 2nd hand and have no warranty etc.. The same I assume would be true of T.J.s. As non authorized dealers they have bought some iPads and would be selling them as second hand items. Buyer beware.
Why is everyone under the impression that Apple is Sony, Dell, etc?
Apple Warranty is valid for the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc buyer of the same product because Apple doesn't do that ridiculous crap of killing off a warranty based on resale. It is based on the dated receipt. If you have a receipt, and it is within the 1 year warranty, it's covered.
I have bought and resold my main computers over and over again. I sell when I reach that last month mark. The buyers are always covered for that last month, and if they so choose, they can buy the 2 year extended before that final month is over.

Has anyone any experience of running Xara on Virtual PC ? If so, does it install and run ok, or is it like shovelling treacle?It runs. That's about all that can be said for it.
If you're just doing really basic stuff, it isn't too bad. But once you get in to motion or lighting effects, it bogs down.
I'd imagine it would depend a bit on your system... though, I can't say I've noticed a massive difference in VPC between my Powerbook 1.0 and my PowerMac DP 1.8.

My point exactly - something like Napster probably had more than a little to do with this fact...
Not really, Tower Records wasn't working because they didn't move online with their catalogue quickly enough. The commercial real estate is getting way overpriced.
Else why is Virgin Megastore and HMV still around?

um, you do realize theres a diff between emailing YOU, and marketing your personal data, right?
this isnt about email from the pub. its about them marketing your data to others, whether you get spam from it or not.
Yes, I have seen there are two checkboxes, I even mentioned it in my post. Check or uncheck either one as you like. Maybe you don't like e-mails about new features in their app, then just uncheck both. Or you are fine with receiving e-mail from FT then uncheck only the bottom one.
With Apple's simplified system, you only decide whether to hand over your data to the publisher, you cannot decide what they then do with this data.
