Can anybody tell whether the iPad has some sports applications that
allow baseball to be watched as games in progress? or at least after
the games have been played? Or games of older times that were
memorable?
My husband wants to know whether he will consider an iPad. Baseball
is a prerequisite.
Know: an iPhone nut like Jonathan he is not. He gave up interest in
anything technological, when tubes went out of radios and TVs.
Incidentally, if anybody is interested in tinkering with ancient TVs
and what the insides look--, well we have a basement with a number of
those.
I recently downloaded some sports application unto my iPhone which is
the pits.

Friends,
Being the total iPhone 4 obsessor that I am, I checked Apple's
site before I hit the hay last night. As of 12:30, they were not
accepting pre-orders yet. Having to, ahem, arise in the night, I
decided to check again around 4:45. It was UP!
I then spent over an hour repeatedly trying to get the site to
take my reservation. It would get part way through and then kick
me off or just stall. Finally, it worked around 6 am. I now have
the privilege of showing up at the Apple store on June 24th (doors
open at 7:00!) and shuffle through the line to get mine, providing
I bring the following:
• A valid, government-issued photo ID
• Your (well, mine, actually) Social Security number
• A debit or credit card
What, no first-born child? I may bring her along just in case!
Then, I went to look at the store again and it was totally down.
Us fanatics brought the Apple store to its knees! (Serves 'em
right for making such great stuff!) It's back up now, but I'm sure
it will be a busy day for the store.
Black only, right now. White is NOT available at this time ("For
Pre-order or Store Pickup" the site said).
Also dropping out of Apple Heaven this morning is a new Mac Mini--
smaller, faster, built-in power supply, HDMI out(!) and more
expensive:

What a fun day!!!
NEW OS
If you have an iPhone or Touch, remember to watch your iTunes for
the new iOS 4 on Monday, the 21st. Free for all, even Touch
owners. iPad owners have to wait for "sometime later" (whether
"later in the summer" or "later in the year" is unclear) for their
version.
