iPhone iOS 5 comes out today.... =)

Not that 'they' don't have access to it anyway, since there is really very little secure about the internet anyway, why would I put anything in 'the cloud'? Anyone's cloud? That is just enriching the gains of hackers. Plus, what happens when someone/thing pulls a Blackberry outage, temporarily, or permenantly? Nope, I'll keep as much on my computer as I can, as long as I can.

I like having my email in Outlook on my PC, automatically sync'd with both my iDevices. I also have large PDFs (public laws and such) with notes and hi-lites that stay sync's between these devices. There is a big convenience factor, but I agree in that I don't have what might otherwise be confidential information like tax returns floating around.

I think the first 5GB is free. And I saw where there is a transition, but it is at max capacity now so getting in there isn't possible for now.

What you gain—and lose—by transitioning from MobileMe to iCloud

Thx

Demand for iOS 5 & iCloud was so high, Apple almost broke the Internet

Apple almost broke the Internet. This 'splains a lot.

A couple random thoughts as I await the brown truck:

1. I should have joined the neighborhood watch. Then I could have eveyone in a 5 mile radius looking for the delivery truck and I could chase him down when he gets near.

2. Should a grown man anticipate the delivery of a new cell phone like this?

Yuuup.

Picked up a 4s at the local Verizon store this morning. Got there about 7:10 a.m. and was #12 in line. They only had about 20 people in line before the store opened at 8:00. Playing with it now. Nice upgrade from my 4 yr old flip phone. The voice activated feature is very cool.

If the 4s actually had LTE/4G, I would have ordered it. Next gen hopefully.

Mine was delivered over an hour ago. It is currently loading photo 3,072 of 5,606.

I watched a Walt Mossburg review and he said in AT&Ts 4G areas, this phone will download at 4G speeds. I hadn't read or heard that.

You must have seen it, without words and read his lips... ???

If ATT had better service FOR ME, I would consider ATT, but they dont, so I will wait just like the other VZW users for a 4G iPhone.

I was hoping for LTE, too. Maybe in the 5. AT&T is claiming 14.4Mbps downloads in their 4G areas as apposed to the 18Mbps on LTE.

HA! I remember when 14.4Mbps modems were fast.
