Desktop Remind 1.4 (Mac OS X)

Remind + Geektools  

Why would I pay you 5 bucks when I can download Remind (a free Unix utility) and Geektools for free??? [alert admin]

Mailplane 1.61.5 (Mac OS X)

Google gears  

Google gears already exists for Firefox and is coming soon to Safari/Webkit. It is also free and BETTER than this idea. It will allow you to use your web apps offline. Chrome already does something similar to this as well. It lets you make dedicated launch/app icons for mail, calendars, etc and runs them in their own process. If you're a little patient, you'll get this app and more for free within a month. [alert admin]

iCab X 4.2 (Mac OS X)

WebKit  

iCab 4 is just based on WebKit, the same rendering engine and UI as Safari and Google's Chrome browser. The Safari 4 beta and iCab use a much more recent webkit with FAST java script engine and rendering engine. You want a faster Safari or a free version of this browser, just download a Webkit nightly build. I've been using this for months and it is more stable than the Safari 4 beta and just as fast. It seems like everyone's 'great new browser' is just one real browser that happens to render faster and more accurately than Firefox or IE. And with the "Dev" menu, if a site rejects WebKit, you can make it report any other browser you want to make the site work. =) [alert admin]

ExpanDrive 1.2.10 (Mac OS X)

So far so good  

I haven't been using it long but this is exactly what I want! I can now easily manipulate scripts and upload images and backups on my remote via SFTP without firing up Cyberduck or Fugu (both of which tend to crash with huge directory transfers). I know MacFUSE has had this plug in for a while but it is nice to see an easy to use GUI. Thanks! [alert admin]

Generator 0.4.3 (Mac OS X)

Game Geni?  

What happened to the Cheat menu? I loved that feature! [alert admin]

RealPlayer 10.1 build 503 (Mac OS X)

Leopard  

Anyone else having this crash on them in Leopard (OSX 10.5). It is either not compatible with the OS or the CalTrans traffic video streams are crashing it. =( [alert admin]

QuickTerm 1.01 (Mac OS X)

Speed limited?  

Is it me or is this limited to 19,200 baud? I need to connect to my target platform at 115,200. Is this simply a gui limitation that I can work around or a hard app limitation? I know my USB-serial can work at that speed with other OSes. [alert admin]

TriTag 0.8 (Mac OS X)

Works perfectly  

Finally, a utility that lets you specify file name part delimiter characters, white space (spaces to underscores) and whatever order you want the ID3->filename to be in! I can finally toss all my Windows mp3/tagging tools and perl scripts. Thanks! [alert admin]

MusicRenamer 2.0 (Mac OS X)

Not customizable enough  

This doesn't let you customize the separation characters, the white space or order of ID3 tag items in the file name. I have a very specific naming scheme I use for all of my mp3s and I need an OSX based utility to do almost what this product does (so I don't have to go back to mp3Tagger in Windows. =P) [alert admin]

Apple iPhone 1.0.1 (Mac OS X)

jailbreak = restore  

I hacked my original firmware with jailbreak to add more ringtones and this update forced me to restore my phone. =( [alert admin]

All Comments Are Irrelevant  

Don't be a fool. The SDK only allows one to DEVELOP applications. There are plenty of applications that Apple will not distribute via its official channel. For instance firefly media sharing over 802.11, Proxy servers, alternative browsers like Firefox, etc. It is still necessary to crack the iPhone to load software from other places.

Great Software - Highly Recommended  

Who says it is still in beta? I don't see it listed as beta anywhere. This is feature complete and stable. Just because it's arbitrary version number starts with a zero doesn't mean it is beta. Every developer uses their own version numbering system. Aside from determining which build is newest, they are meaningless when it comes to stability, features and other metrics.

Secret upload?  

The app doesn't measure the media or protocol layer throughput so it has nothing to do with typical ACK/NAK frame overhead. There is torrent application layer protocol overhead though. This is a peer to peer network, it will update multiple locations with the active streams, amount of data you have to provide, etc. This shouldn't surprise anyone. The more active torrents you have, even just downloading, the more torrent application babble you will see. By the…

Does what is says on the tin  

Your wife may not have been the problem. I had my Canon SD1000 lock up in the cold on a mountain climbing trip in Alaska this summer. About 1/3rd of the images and videos on my 8GB SDHC card went missing by no action of my own. I'm still mystified as to what happened and it hasn't happened since but I was able to use a similar product (Data Rescue II) to recover the images.…

Try scp  

For the more computer literate among us, I get my copy functionality (and access to the entire file system) by using secure copy. Just install ssh on your iPhone and any computer with ssh/scp clients (which is every windows, Mac and Linux box I use) can now copy files back and forth on the command line. Granted, you are someone limited by the 802.11 speed but it works great for moving docs back and forth…

oh please...  

You both completely missed the point of my post. I did expect this to occur with the update. I'm not even complaining that I had to restore. I simply have lots of friends with iPhones who have done the same thing to their phones to add ringtones and get other functionality that is already in their iPods but have been removed from the iPhone. They were all curious to know if this update would require a…

Demo seems to freeze  

No, actually, I DO have version 1.5 installed. I can create a sleep setup in the preferences but when I tell it to generate, it stalls forever. I downloaded the app from your web site. If it is missing a module, then perhaps you shouldn't give a user the option to generate a sleep session instead of just infinitely looping requiring a force quit.

A few good Women, Grrr  

The regular bit torrent client will work fine. I'd bet your problem is being firewalled. If you are firewalled, you will probably only be able to connect to a few peers and you'll get a really slow d/l rate. If you DMZ yourself or switch off your firewall, you'll connect to MANY more peers and get a much better rate. Either that or punch a huge upper bound (> 1024) port range in your firewall.

their drivers...  

there is a reason. their drivers are unreliable and highly incompatible.

Maybe for this firewire product but I have an M-audio Sonica Theater (5.1 USB sound card) on my 20" iMac and it has worked flawlessly. I'm very impressed with their speaker setup application and driver. It also handles sound input with amazing quality. I'm not astro-turfing for M-audio, just very happy with my suround sound system.
