Oh god is the TiVo Netflix buggy. It seems to have gotten progressively worse over the years too. The first revision was fine, but now I find it unusable, having to wait for it to rebuffer constantly when no other device on my network requires that.

First of all, it's $99. A low enough price that it shouldn't factor at all in the purchase decision. If it is, stop watching your damn tv and go work some more.

I agree with you about Newsstand. I may or may not use it, but I'm a heavy folder user for organization and that one drives me nuts. It actually seems to be a specialize folder itself, but that's an explanation not an excuse. In the past I've always put the undeleteables I don't want into a "Seldom Used" folder on…

Download went fine (this morning), but install failed harmlessly about a dozen times after backup until it failed with error 3004 and bricked the phone into restore mode, at which point it "restored" iOS5 and then slow, painfully slowly, restored my settings, apps, etc.

Your success inspired me! I tried and again and this time I didn't get a vague "internal error". Instead I got error 3004 (anyone else seeing that one?) and a OS-less phone in recovery mode. I wonder if this restore will work any better than the update attempts.

And if those updates fail?

You're right, but I don't think it's a bandwidth issue. I've got my installer file, after all, so additional attempts are just trying to get some kind of auth approval from their servers (important since it's a phone and needs to be activated and functioning at the end of the process. If it's an authentication…

I wanted the Giulia, really badly, but I *needed* the 2002. I was missing the one I had in Forza 3. Nowhere near the best car in my garage, but the one I was fondest of along with my Stratos.

I'd like to see them use the video and networking technology from facetime in iChat, but Apple will never merge the two services. Facetime is designed to work like a phone, to ring through to you on all available nodes (iPad, iPhone, Mac) simultaneously, without any regard for status or even whether the facetime app…

I'm not sure what I did differently, but I've always used the same account for both. My wife does as well. No problem here. Plenty of other longstanding requests for Apple - like running iTunes as a service, independent of account, so everyone shares a single library and no one has to be logged in and running…
