    Damn, better preventing than repairing, I guess. Should almost get that rubber-ish case then.

    I placed my Macbook on top of a huge-ass Marshall speaker in our rehearsal room, which was hooked up to my buddy playing his bass. Not recommendable.

        Haha, true that! Apple is unquestionably great craftsmanship.

          Well, now I got a bunch of Best Buy gift cards but no iPads in sight! :-)

            Unfortunately the glass has a tendency to shatter if the phone hits the ground just-so. Thankfully replacement front screens and back screens can be had online for $40 and $10 respectively. Still very much painful to have to go through :(

              Bit the bullet on the new iPad and no regrets. Really awesome toy AND tool. Regular users - what do you recommend for a case and a stylus

                I'd consider a case from makr http://makr.com/?tag_product_type=20

                  I don't use stylus but if you are talking about case, hard graft do actually made some nice one. it has the smell of MA+ in it. Very practical too.

                    Can I use my iPad charge plug with iPhone and vice versa?

                      pretty sure you can charge anything from iPhone to iToothbrush with the same thing!

                        As a general rule, yes.

                        For maximum safety (almost certainly unnecessary), only charge things with a charger built for them or something more sturdy. i.e charging a macbook air with a macbook pro charger, or an iphone with an ipad charger is 0 risk. Going the other way is near 0 risk, but not entirely 0. Or so I've been told. I ignore this shit with impunity, have for years.

                          Yea, I looked and the output for iphone is 5 V for iPhone and 5.1 for iPad, so should be fine. Woot, charger efficiency. So, Etruscan, will I see you in San Fran next week?

                            does anyone have any concrete " inside info" on release dates for the new macbook air and iPhone? I mean are their any industry insiders that might offer a good educated guess?

                              i talked to a guy who works for mac over the weekend and he was saying around the same time as last year. basically anytime now for the announcement, who knows for when they'll be available for purchase.

                              of course, there's always this as well.

                                ^^I've been waiting for the same. Definitely wait until the next gen is released b/c it'll come with a better chipset, screen, and probably be equal to or less in price.

                                The thing I'm curious about is if they finally decide to merge the MacBook Pro and Air lines into a single line. After all, you strip out the worthless DVD/CD/etc drive in the Pro and you can shrink is on down.....I'm hoping they do merge, but who knows what that'll do to options and pricing structure.

                                I'm waiting, but expecting June/July time frame, which tends to be a popular time.
