LOL @ Stud Mario! Thats awesome MRU :D
Anyway, it was funny for me to hear this because when my friend and I were blasting through Co-Op he said "Ya know, I bet they are gonna make this into a movie, the dumb-ass plot and excessive gore will make stoned teens cry with joy"
And sure enough....

@MechaSpanky, someone could still take a screenshot and apply some simple Photoshop (as MacDawg has said).
Yes, that is true and it is a very good point but I still think that a locked PDF file (with the editing capabilities restricted) will deter most people who might think about stealing your stuff. Sure there are others out there that will take the time to download a high res screen capture utility (you will have to actually download a program to do this as the normal screen capture on Macs is 72 ppi, which is low res) but I would imagine that most companies wouldn't do that. It is the same problem that software companies face with piracy. There will always be people who can and will steal stuff, but the majority will not.
I myself, as a designer have been asked to submit samples of my work for review by clients. I have never had anyone steal any of my work (although there have been a couple of companies that might have "borrowed" some of my design ideas but that is even harder to prevent). Just to be safe, I always use a PDF with restricted editing capabilities and I also add a watermark. Sure someone can get around this but it will take them a while to do it (never underestimate the power of a well placed watermark, it can make retouching an image very difficult if positioned correctly).
In the end, I would imagine that the best thing to do is to make sure that you can trust the people who you are dealing with. Of course this is not always an option (nor is it an easy thing to determine).

I plan on using my Ipad predominately w/ wifi. I bought the 3g version for when I travel or want a more secure connection. I keep getting an annoying pop-up that says "you haven't signed up for your account"..meaning Verizon 3g acct. and you can click "now" or "later". I got tired of hitting "later" and decided to sign up and be done with it. I'll sign up for the cheapest plan ($20.00/month). My question is: If I jump thru the hoops and sign up now, will I be charged $20./month from the time of set up forward-even if I don't use 3g or can I just sign up and Verizon won't charge me until I actually use their service?
Thanks in advance.

Don't install a Dev Preview that you downloaded from Demonoid. That would probably be a great place to start fixing that issue.

I notcied after having it for only a few days that there are two small scratches on the screen of my iPad, I've been extremely careful with it, its either in its case or in my hands so this is rather annoying. Does anyone know of any handy way to repair them?
As a general rule you cant really polish scratches out of glass especially if you can feel them with your fingernail (it is a lot of hard work and often causes distortion in the glass) plus I believe the iPad has an olyophobic (spelling) coating that you will rub off if you try to polish it
I would just live with it :)
p.s. I have been in the glass trade for over 13 years

Israeli firm fringland (http://iwww.fring.com), one of the earliest (http://www.macrumors.com/iphone/2008/04/15/fring-brings-voip-and-to-iphone-touch/) VoIP services (http://www.macrumors.com/2008/10/03/fring-enables-voip-calls-over-wifi-for-iphone-with-skype-support/) for the iPhone and iPod touch, has announced (http://www.fring.com/blog/?p=1791) the launch of video calling for the iPhone and iPod touch. The feature is included in the latest version of the company's fring iPhone application [App Store (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/fring/id290948830?mt=8), Free].
Unfortunately, because the iPhone's camera is on the rear of the device, only one-way incoming video calls are possible, although the application will support two-way video calling if the iPhone and iPod touch gain front-facing cameras in the future. The company already supports two-way video calling on several Nokia phones (http://www.fring.com/blog/?p=1659) with such cameras.Right now iPhone and iPod touch users can receive and make fring and Skype video calls entirely over Internet connection (for free!) and see the person on the other end. When a front camera is placed on these, we'll have two-way video calls available here too just as we do on all the supported Nokia devices.
A promotional video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=50DkFGXi-QA) highlighting the new video functionality has also been released.

Video only needs about 700KB a sec bandwidth when it come to a typical modern DVD rip to avi or h.264 unless it's HD but even then it's maybe 2-3MB/sec.

I agree, I'm starting to get sick of these 4 gig downloads for 4.01, 4.02, jeez.
Yep. iOS apps never get that big so having to redownload the entire thing isn't so bad. Even full-fledged games on iOS never reach 1 GB due to the lower res graphics required for an iDevice, and due to the fact that they're lower powered and so they can't include as advanced graphics or the game would be sluggish. On a Mac, this system doesn't work. Oh well, the Mac App Store is still pretty much version 1.0 at this point. I'm sure it'll improve.

I would suggest not saying that you want an unlocked one. It's very easy to do yourself. Since most people seem to think that unlocking it adds $150-250 extra to the price, I would steer clear of having someone else press the "unlock" button for you.

I'll cut to the chase, :cool:.
I'm in China with thousands of Yuans but am wanting to take most of it back home to deposit it into my Citi account back in the U.S. The reason i'm asking here where/how to convert the cash is in seeking the lowest possible service charge. I figured at least one soul out there would provide a useful answer.
The airports seem to charge quite a bit, with a 12% transaction fee. That'll easily amount to a couple of hundred bucks lost simply to exchange the cash.
Nevertheless hope someone knows of a method to utilize. Perhaps Citi will take big red bills with Chairman Mao on them...but in all honesty, i'm sure they prefer Benjamins.

The potentially bad part about this investigation is during the time of the options Apple had no "compensation committee".All compensation was approved by the board of directors.This could put Jobs in a bad position.
I think this was SOP at most corporations until recently.

My Mom's G3 iMac (running 10.3.9) keeps on either freezing up, going into deep unwakable sleep or kernal panicking. I ran Disk Utilities and it told me that everything is A-OK. I repaired permissions and all that jazz as well. I think that the PRAM battery is out, however, b/c I keep on getting the 'Your Computer's clock is set before..." message at each startup. Would this cause the above stated problems? Thanks in advance.

However when I sync them to my iPad the summaries are not visible as they are with films, is there any way that this can be changed so they are? It would be very useful, I would say there is even space for it in the app.MP4 files can contain a short description and a long description. For some reason only known to Apple, only the short description is accessible in iTunes, and only the long one displayed on the iPad. You can use 3rd party software (e.g. MetaX) to set both descriptions in MP4 files though.
