Oh Apple, you suck again and again. So yesterday was the day, all 9’s, 2009/09/09  what a day. Everyone expected great announcements and what a disappointment. Here is my stake at this Apple crap that everyone has to put up with:

Apple instead of focusing on fixing problems with iTunes (I am unable to delete items on my iTouch for example that would remove those removed items in iTunes, when I sync they will get put back to my iTouch, why? Why not be able to delete things? Well I can delete but iTunes will just ignore my request and will put those deleted items back, so why even have this option of delete in there? Another issue that I have with iTunes is that lets say I have podcast that I do subscribe, let’s say I have 30 podcasts in there, somehow iTunes will take this subscription and create multiple subscriptions for that one entry, so then all those 30 podcasts that are in the subscription will be divided in between them. I have for example Attack of the Show subscription, and I have around 30 podcasts for it, so when I look at my iTunes, I see 3 separate entries for Attack of the Show subscription, and those 30 podcasts will be put in between those subscriptions. That is so messed up. When I listen, I don’t know which one will have the latest entries and which one will not, so I sometimes have to jump in between 3 of them to see latest podcast. Sucks, but what did Apple do? They got in iTunes 9, what did they do? Only crap that they do care, some Genius crap that I do not even know who is using it, or they focus on how to make sure that Palm Pri will not sync with it, Apple, you are so stupid, those are your potential music buyers, they can purchase songs, videos from your store? Why on earth would you limit and dismiss potential buyers? Because what? Because people did not buy your hardware? Or because Pri could be potential threat to your hardware? Well let me tell you this, I am looking for new phone, and I did check other phone that I would consider to purchase but iPhone seems like is the only one that I really want… For now phone market is yours, unless some other company will come out with killer phone with some fancy OS you have nothing to worry about, but let me tell you this, competition is closing up on you Apple. That also brings me to my other item, competition is closing up on Apple, in a big way, yes Apple has such great application/game base, you have solid product, but why not deliver and improve it? You will lose in a long run, why? Because one day, someone will come out with a new killer device that will beat anything that you have and then Apple will experience what it did already once in 90’s, where Apple almost disappeared, where Apple almost did not survive.

So anyway back to the announcement, what did Apple announce yesterday? Absolutely nothing that would be of any value. Yeah they releasing new iTouch, 64gb ram, sweet, faster cpu and more memory to match iPhone 3GS, but what else? Absolutely nothing. People were hoping to get a camera at least, why not? Apple why not? I would love to see GPS, who cares about stupid compass, I did not use compass for ages, why even have it in your iPhone, yeah its fun toy to play with, but who does use it? iPhone 3GS was previous disappointment and now iTouch news is another one.

Apple, my words to you, burn in hell, you suck big time because you got a product, which is excellent but you are limiting people what they can or cannot do, and you are not releasing what people truly want… Ah, that exclusive deal with AT&T should be illegal and FCC should punish you for that as they were doing to Microsoft for Internet Explorer, IE had some merit to why MS was including it with their own product, but what you are doing is just pure corruption, pure monopoly and is just wrong. I am seriously hoping that FCC will do something about it and one day you will pay for this.

My itouch every now and then gets its date screwed up, it is so annoying but I found a way to fix it. Fix is quite simple, all you have to do is open itunes, go to preferences menu and remove your backup file. Next time you sync your itouch or iphone it should get corrected date.

Ah, when we are on a subject, why the hell apple does not let programs access internal clock and be able to modify it? There are some nice clocks, one of them is atomic clock, if it only could set system’s time. Apple is freaking control freaking company, I hate this about apple since forever, that’s why I never got apple/mac before. Years ago, Apple, the same like Commodore Amiga wanted to control their market share, Commodore Amiga did not survive such idiotic path, and to be honest apple also almost did not survive, all of a sudden they did turn around and today they are quite strong, but what made them able to do so was to open up their systems a little and not sell proprietary stuff. Its so funny people do argue that if Apple wanted they could make chip and inexpensive desktops and laptops but they do not want it… that’s why they do not have big market share… Apple is making money still, well because they have fanatics buying those systems, I am not saying that systems are not nice, they are actually very very nice, but for me they are way to expensive… Ehh, it is just a matter of taste and choice…

Apple, give people cut and paste already, freaking everyone is complaining about this. I have my itouch since what November? How many times since then I’ve heard complains about this? Ah, on the same tone, why the hell there is limit of 140 apps only? That is so damn stupid. I did fill up my limit of apps, I wish I could jailbreak my itouch, but its 2nd gen so hack is not possible at this moment, but I would hack it just for being able to install more applications. As I said Apple is so stupid, because if I had more space for apps I would purchase more of them, if I have no space I am limited to what I can buy, that’s like shutting yourself in a foot… Apple get your act together and do those simple things, make people happy, after all that’s why people are buying your stuff because it suppose to be amazing experience….
