maybe because of the chinese conspiracy to 'buy' america from the UK? after all, nowhere in their declaration of independence does it state they declare independence from the King or the UK! j.k. the masonic overlords all but microsnot, so they try to keep apple over here!!

2nd Sep, 2010Re: [MMUG] Iphone 3GS sim only France etc
Ok this worked fine but o2 refused as I only got my 3GS upgrade in March and they want you to stay with the phone a whole 12 months. You may have had an iphone O2 contract for years, but it's how long you have the device that counts. So I have done the My Europe bolt-on thing -£10 for 30dd. You get incoming for free and outgoing calls reduced from 30p to 24p/min. Texts are free in your allowance but 1 txt = 4 off the allowance. This is nothing new but It's probably just about worth it.

Considering most of it's made in China, how come it's cheaper in the US than in the UK? The only differences between the countries would be things like import duties & sales tax / VAT. Shipping costs would be pretty well the same I'd imagine. Matt

Hi Javad, Just to say the obvious - make sure you have backed up before you install! You never know what might happen.

Hi Tilly, many thanks for your detail and informative email. I believe now that I have a wrong software to install. The double sided DVD was not recognised and the two c.d. do not relate to any procedures. I started my iPad off by taking it to the apple Store in Solihull. Now I need to access my slide shows and photos

I wonder if the confusion arose from the early days of the iPhone (like when I got mine) and the only way to NOT have the Apple contract and a hefty monthly bill was to jailbreak the phone. I suppose now that it's easier to swap networks (ie unlock) you wouldn't need to jailbreak? Tilly

Hi Javad, I have the same problem as you - both my iMac G5 and PowerBook G4 were happily running 10.4.11 and I was shocked that the iPad couldn't function with them (so I know what you mean by 'curse'!). Luckily we had a PC in the house running XP which had iTunes on it so I have got the iPad going and so far I have not needed to update it, but

No idea, I did notice Steve was careful to say the new Ping feature works with 'iTunes purchases', meaning you can't recommend anything to friends that isn't on the store. Re:co
