Is it a 4S issue or an iOS5 issue? Or the latter compounding the former?

Sorry for lack of clarity: I wasn't championing a preference other than to note that the unpopular choice can work. I currently have cable, and [depending on the deal] my preferences change.

I had no cable for yearlong stretches. iTunes, AppleTV, and a broadcast antenna cover the non-premium content.

I see prior art for the gesture around 3:15, but the patent is specific to accessing the device that has the touchscreen.

Can you share any links? I'm genuinely curious to see the origins, 'cause the function blew my mind when then iPhone was announced.

You should buy Hurry Up, We're Dreaming if you like any aspect of this song, no questions asked. It works. There's something about it that makes it one of the rare start-to-finish albums.

While fixing the name, why not fix the really easily fixable stuff?

Does this really enable display mirroring [wirelessly] per the post title? I swiped left to get iPod controls and selected my 2nd-gen apple TV and got nothing.

I'm a newbie. The DFU walkthrough that come with redsn0w didn't work for me.

Apple's hardware performance mantra has always "more out of less."

Cool—what process do you use? GarageBand was a requirement the last time I made a ringtone, which was however many years ago.

'Xactly ;-)

Do the advanced gestures work for anyone with an iPad 1, per [gizmodo.com] ? I've read that Apple gimped the features, requiring a jailbreak. I don't want to waste $5 on anything other than ANTM.

In the device summary in iTunes with everything updated, do you also see the "Connect this [iDevice] using a USB cable in order to update or restore its software?"

I'd at least like to see a streamlined menu interface that doesn't require so many sub-menus simply to get to, say, a playlist from your iTunes library. This kind of searching was fun in a novel way when the click wheel still ruled the world, but the aluminum apple remote is no Magic Mouse.

I'm disappointed that the plan appears to include 2-year design cycles with the products that would be [or used to be] 1-year.

These weirdos distract from the thirteen other design failures. Go analog and boring, or go crazy and childish, or go digital and confused.

I was getting errors until I upped iTunes to the 10.5 beta 7 from the links in the comments below.

Sorry if this is a "duh, already know that" thing: the restore from backup option should appear after the "update" software is verified and all that. I'm reminded of that now that iOS 5 didn't work (per the iTunes 10.5 beta requirement mentioned below) and am restoring back to 4.3.5.

AT&T is GSM.
