What's more reliable about the AIM protocol than the one Apple created for Bonjour/Jabber?

The level of feature implementation is considerably higher for the iChat / AIM protocol due to the fact that it has been in iChat since the start, refined, updated, and enhanced where the Jabber and Bonjour parts are fairly recent additions.

Bonjour (Rendezvous) was there from the beginning. Jabber was added 4 years ago.

And iChat uses the same AV protocol for AIM, Bonjour and Jabber (I had to look it up, I was wrong before, It's quite interesting actually, uses SIP to start the connection and RTP to send and receive, and also uses uPNP (and NAT-PMP I assume) to open the ports and an Apple server to find the external IP)

Wow, I remember back in the day when it wasn't...I guess you learn something new every day.

I can't wait for the 3G iPhone either so I'm getting a little nervous. However, my main concern is the launch price in Belgium. It's the first time they're going to have one here so everyone, without a "hacked" one, is waiting to storm that shop.

We'll see but I, for one, have my money ready for a 3G version.

Two things I'm surprised Apple hasn't said anything about are video recording and Bluetooth file transfer. Video recording is huge, I love being able to take videos and share them with people over Bluetooth, so I'm surprised Apple hasn't said anything about this yet :/

Imj not sure if Im going to upgrade to the new iPhone, depends on the features. One question, if anyone knows the answer. If I buy a new iPhone, can I take the SIM from my current iPhone and use it on the new one or I have to activate it again??

I reckon you'll have to activate again but in a simple way. iPhones will still be locked.

I know this question will not tell us anything about the iPhone, but I doubt she can even answer this one. :|

Even after WWDC, I bet she can't say if she saw it or not.

What I'm wondering though, Cara, is : what exactly is your job at Apple? Are you designing their website? Their applications? Their icons? Or maybe their hardware? *cough iPhone* :p

If they do add multi touch in mac osx i wonder what the reaction would be. I bet they would show some intresting demos, compared to microsofts lame one

I can see apple getting this first and it actully sucucding

Of course Microsoft showed a "lame" demo. Why do people still think they were suddenly going to show off the entirety of Windows 7?

    • Hey Google, these are the Gemini features I want in 2026

      I used to use Google assistant, not on the phone i have now, but about 7 years ago, then I decided it did not really do anything for me. Because i had Echo units over the house I added Alexa to the phone to control stuff and that is how it is now. Not the new Alexa+, as that is not really available in the U.K yet apart from on new units and to be honest, not interested in it. I went though the stage years ago of using voice to do text and call people, quicker to do it using my hands. I had a muck about with Siri on my Mac when I first got it, but not having a microphone permanently plugged in makes it a pain. I know it can be used by text. Siri like Apple AI is disabled on my Mac and will stay disabled.
    • It's about to become harder to turn off your Samsung TV, thanks to Instagram

      By ad47uk · Posted

      I have a TV, but it is not used for normal linear TV, only streaming and it is not a Samsung and the best bit is, I don;'t and never have had a Instagram account. The only thing I have to do with Meta is Faceache and I only keep that just for the messaging part.

      But building your own.. what? You can't build anything like the Steam Machine yourself. Even trying to get close costs a good deal more. Even just the CPU cooler in their price comparison is as big as the entire Steam Machine. If you want a regular gaming PC, then by all means, build that. If you want a a small console-like PC for the living room that is good for gaming, I'm not sure what else is a better deal. In the GN review, they only mentioned a small form factor Dell, which is like twice the size and hundreds of dollars more expensive.

      Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
