New forum topic header for iPhone!

Michele, while the iPhone is GREAT and I love it. I can't understand why it needs its "own" header here. It falls under "Apple Consumer Electronics" and that has been working out great. No single Apple product, or model has its own category here.

I can be convinced otherwise, but I haven't been thus far. What's your argument for separating it out? Why would it need its own and the iPod doesn't and the Apple TV doesn't?

Others, opinions?

I say we need a catagory for the following.

1) Newton

2) Software Favorites - Times Two

3) Paul R's "AA" group.

Just kidding I concur with Terry. The "Apple Consumer Electronics" catagory should suffice. I think Michele is excited about the iPhone. Hey, perhaps she wants to start an iPhone SIG?

A couple of years ago I had suggested that separate forums be made for some of the new computers coming out at the time. Hind sight would show ( at least to me ) that they were not needed.

If the iPod never got its own forum ( and that is Apple's largest selling product ) then I am okay with putting ( and leaving ) the iPhone, AppleTV, and iPod in the Apple Consumer Electronics forum

"AA"??? (A)nti (A)ircraft Sig??

If you remember the MacGroup meeting 2 back. I believe you came to the Mic up front and said these words

"Hi .... I'm Paul ....and I am an Alcholholic"

I laugh really hard when I saw it!

You can check the Quicktime video of the meeting

We need 2 things for the iBBS....

1) Spell Checker (I'm not pointing any fingers Calvin's way)

2) Better Audio for QT meeting files.
Paul said he was a "Mac-oholic"

1) There is a spell checker built-in to Safari. Right Click into any webform, choose Spelling > Check Spelling as you Type.

2) How is #2 something to do with the iBBS?

Terry,

1) Well duh.... I knew that, but how can I make fun of Calvin or his spelling?

2) See Number 1

Ah yes!! Forgot about that.
Oh crap... I'm late for my AA meeting!!

I saw iLife has it's own and thought that being a new exciting product it would be a nice way to get info out there, sorry, I will go back into lurking mode.

Yeah this is the first product Apple has made in a long time that I have been excited over. I mean I love my MacBookPro but this iPhone is the shizzy!!! It was nice to finally go into the Apple store to buy a product that I needed/wanted. Well didn't need it so much I have 2 iPods I NEVER USED TOO CLUMBSY, had a month old pink Sliver phone, don't use a PDA, but absolutely love the photo/email features of the iPhone, ok lurk lurk lurk sorry I thought I'd settle down once I had the thing in my hand.....

Is it possible since I didn't know the iPhone fell under the Consumer Electroinc forum that other members don't either.

Calvin,

Doh!

Hello,

My name is Craig Rademacher. I am a member of the Mac User Group in Marquette (http://web.mac.com/mcmugup/). I wanted to let you know about a new iPhone website I have created. It is devoted to sharing free iPhone art with a Green perspective. Some of your members may want to take advantage of the free art or participate as a contributing artist.

This is a first attempt at building a community of Green artists around the iPhone. I know it sounds odd. But, what a fun way to express your commitment to the environment...with your iPhone. would appreciate any comments and feedback. It is built in iWeb.

You will find the site at:

http:www.mygreeniphone.org

Feel free to share the site with fellow Mac enthusiasts and friends. Visit often as the catalog grows over the next few months.

iPhones can be Green.

Thanks for your time. I wish you the best.
