If you have even an up-to-date Flash plugin installed, it most likely will crash your browsers. It seems that this bug has been fixed in Flash 10.1 beta.
I have ClickToFlash installed, so I could actually read what this page says without having Safari crashed.
No wonder Steve Jobs won’t allow Flash on the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad.

Apple has just revealed their latest creation, the iPad. No it’s not the one from Mad TV sketch.
A few days ago I read a hilarious post from knice.landing (20 things Apple haters already hate about the Apple Tablet); it somewhat rings true. Apple haters already hate the iPad. It’s not about the name.
Well, you don’t have to be an Apple hater to hate the Apple iPad. You could be a dirty unbathed free-software hippie for example.
Here are some reasons why, and they are real complaints taken from comments all over the Internet:
- It is not open.
- It is not open source.
- iTunes App Store sucks.
- It is locked in to Apple’s proprietary software.
- It runs Apple’s own processor.
- It is not as good and open and free as Android.
- It has a limited/crippled multi-tasking feature.
- It does not use nVidia Ion chipset.
- It does not use Intel processor.
- It does not run Windows 7.
- Paul Thurrott said the iPad sucks.
- Rob Enderle said the iPad sucks.
- Steve Ballmer said the iPad sucks.
- It has small storage.
- It does not have OLED screen.
- It does not have stylus.
- Steve Jobs is dressed poorly.
- What about Adobe Flash? Seriously, does it even run Flash? Flash! Ah ah! (queues Queen song).
- It does not have real keyboard. (What? It’s a “tablet” computer.)
- It looks like an oversize iPhone.
- Battery life is only 10 hours.
- It is tied to iTunes.
- It does not have 10 Megapixel camera.
- It is on AT&T 3G. Why can’t it be with (insert company name here).
- It is not the one Jason Calacanis said he had. (p.s. Jason Calacanis is an attention whore.)
- It is $499 – that’s too expensive. Greedy Apple!
- No front facing camera.
- No camera.
- Battery is not removable.
- The name “iPad” sucks.
- Netbook is much better.
- It does not have Ogg support.
- It does not play Windows Media Format files.
- It does not have Blu-Ray drive.
- No free software (this and next 3 from Ars Technica)
- No installing apps from the Web
- No sharing music or books
- We can remotely disable your apps & media

Apple’s “Come see our latest creation.” Live Coverage links. January 26, 2010
Posted by very in : Announcement, Apple, Applications, Apps, Entertainment, Mac OS X, Media, Movies, Music, News, Pictures, Resources, Snow Leopard, TV, Tech, iPhone, iPod, iTunes , add a commentAs usual, a lot of eyes will be glued to the screen during Apple Special Event. This time it would be no different. Apple’s “Come see our latest creation.” event begins at 10:00 AM Pacific Time on Wednesday 27th, 2010

Most of us do not get any invitations from Apple to the Special Event at Yerba Buena Center in San Francisco, thus we can “participate” by going to on or more of the followings:
- AllThingsD – Digital Daily
- AppleInsider
- Ars Technica
- Computerworld Blogs
- CNET
- Engadget
- gdgt
- Gizmodo
- iLounge
- MacDailyNews
- MacNN
- MacRumors
- MacStories
- MacWorld
- SlashGear
- Technologizer
- TechzTalk
- TheAppleBlog
- Wired.com Gadget Lab
- ZDNet
- 9t05Mac-?
I’ll add more links as they are found.
The “fake” info:
According to an imaginary source who claimed to be a high ranking Apple Executive that is definitely not Tim Cook, this new Apple “creation” would have the following:
- 6.75-inch x 8.72-inch dimension, thickness was not disclosed.
- 6.375-inch x 8.345-inch screen size.
So far, that was all the info given by this all-made-up-mysterious-Apple-Executive who is definitely not Phil Schiller. Remember that the nimber given was not an accurate measurement of the device itself due to some rounding errors.
Apple has been leaking out some fake info and we were foolish enough to report it even though we know they are fake. It will be narrower then the dimension we reported earlier. This we know, the new device Apple will be revealing on Wednesday will have the Apple logo in portrait orientation just like the iPhone. All in good fun.
The New Creation That Apple Will Reveal on January 27th, 2010 Is……. January 18, 2010
Posted by 37prime in : Announcement, Apple, Comedy, Humor, Mac OS X, MacBook, Media, News, Resources, Snow Leopard, Tech , add a commentDon’t call it “iSlate” because that name is so un-Apple and was used by Apple’s own for misinformation. Apparently other companies are taking the bait by renaming their tablet PC as Slate.

Anyway, Check back for some fake information about the fable Apple device that could be some kind of tablet-like computer.

Steve Jobs: The Opera (June 2009) June 24, 2009
Posted by very in : Announcement, Apple, Media, News, Resources, Tech, iPhone , add a commentOne of the biggest news about Apple this week is none other than the Co-Founder and CEO of Apple Steve Jobs having liver transplant. The news was first broke by Wall Street Journal shortly after iPhone 3GS (formerly iPhone 3G S) was released and the stock market closed. It is speculated that WSJ was informed from within Apple’s own since WSJ did not mention their sources which is a little bit out of the ordinary.
Steve Jobs was then reportedly back in Apple’s Cupertino Campus on Monday June 22nd, 2009. Anecdotally, it was reported that Jobs’ first order of business is to correct the nomenclature of the new iPhone, striking the extra space. Thus the iPhone 3G S is now known as iPhone 3GS.
In the meantime, many questions Apple’s practice in keeping secrets about Steve Jobs health. Some even believe that Apple broke the law for failing to disclose Steve Jobs’ liver transplant. There is Steve Jobs the CEO of Apple Inc., a publicly traded company and there is Steve Jobs a private citizen.
On Tuesday June 23rd, 2009 Metodhist University Hospital confirmed Steve Job’s liver transplant in a PDF statement. As stated in press release Steve Jobs gave the permission for such information to be made public. Thus further the speculation that WSJ’s source is none other than Apple itself.
I for one am glad that Steve Jobs is back and I wish him the best.
