It's thoroughly enjoyable observing all of this predictable buzz about the new iPhone OS release. Prior to this update, when the iPhone was lacking multitasking, it was continually argued to be an unnecessary feature. Now all of the devices which won't have multitasking enabled are being seen as being significantly inferior.

I know that this sorta stuff happens wherever there are irrational worshippers, but those amongst the Apple crowd really have perfected it. It's hilarious.

Wow these iPads are total fail.  I'm setting 2 up for people at my company and the only way to pay their monthly bills is via credit card.  Its impossible to pay for them by billing. And since we have no credit card attached to our company = returned product.

Complete and utter fail.

And guess whose product it is?  Theyre the one that chose exclusivity with the one company and the ones that forced these shitty contracts upon us. 

It is an iPad only plan.  Everything else about the company is fine except this one shitty product since Apple determines how they sell it.

Also, its a very sleek, beautiful product.  The IPS screen is sexy and its very fun to use.  My biggest problem with it (other than their shitty service) is that its kinda hard to type on.  Since the back is so smooth it slides around when you type and its pretty annoying.  I can type 10x faster with my laptop on my lap (like I am now) and almost as fast on my touchscreen phone

Learn to use the awesome that is kX drivers.
The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

I'd use kX drivers on every sound card I own if I only could.

They're a marvel of engineering.

The kX or Daniel K drivers are both amazing, I'd recommend either one.

Like half the webpages I try to visit are not loading... wtf

I can't even check my hotmail account...

Any suggestions

I'm on AT&T DSL atm

Also: should we consider switching to a Phone, Internet, and TV bundle from Time Warner Cable?

edit: basically only facebook and Bf2s work, along with some others, Google and such as well

hotmail, tested.com, and many others don't work

I have tried chrome, opera, safari, and firefox. All are experiencing the problem, on both Win7 x64 laptop and WinXP x86 desktop

https://www.speedtest.net/result/861407689.png

my internet speeds have basically been cut as well, apparently, as I was getting ~2.5 down/.5 up a couple weeks ago when I last checked

I've been trying out Opera in an attempt to solve my YouTube problems. I really like it, the interface is brilliant; so much nicer than FF. I can get used to a lot of the ways it does things differently, but the lack of addons - in the Firefox sense - is annoying. Also things like I can't add a picture to the Speeddial tiles. It's just not very customisable, or at least that's how it seems. The browser itself is great though, but I'm not sure that I can get rid of so many things that I've grown accustomed to having.

EDIT: Also, I think having to physically go into a text file and add any adblock settings I want is ridiculous. It's like the motherfucking 1930's or something. This shit should be integrated into the browser. The settings you can find on the internet work fine, but as soon as you go to a slightly lesser well known site/advertiser, all the ads are back and you've gotta hunt down the fucking text file - which naturally is in a really obscure place - and copy paste part of the image URL in. It's crazy. How the hell do other people deal with this?

still having the problem using google DNS

chrome after trying to login to hotmail wrote:

Error 118 (net::ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT): The operation timed out.
is there any way to fix this?

edit: I reset the router thing, and pages now load, but speeds are still miserable
