jp11801 Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Saturday will be epic when I receive two things I'm not sure I even need Apple Tablet and the EC TA I really do want them both though Quote
HeadphoneAddict Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 I just got tracking but it's not showing up in the UPS system yet. I'll be in Wyoming for Easter and Blutarsky is going to pick up my iPad from my UPS Store mailbox for me, so I can get it from him on Sunday when I return. That's what friends are for. Tonight I ran Speedtest a few times on my iPhone 3GS which shows 3G is running between 113kbit/s avg and 323 kbit/s. I checked my history in Speedtest, and these are the fastest 3G I have seen so far (goes back as far as June 22 09). With the MiFi I got between 223 and 539 kbits/s, so MiFi is faster, but Comcast was 7,500 kbits/s. I'll test the AT&T 3G network speeds as I travel, and again when I go to Blutarsky's to see if being near Bluto speeds it up or not. It might be faster when he holds his breath vs breathing, so we'll try that too. Quote
thrice Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Mine is hanging out in Kentucky as well. Quote
en480c4 Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Did you think about this when you ordered your iPad? Does the iPad Make Man Purses Okay Now? - Ipad bag - Gizmodo NTTAWWT, Ask Ricky It's not a purse! It's a satchel!!! Quote
jvlgato Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 I'll test the AT&T 3G network speeds as I travel, and again when I go to Blutarsky's to see if being near Bluto speeds it up or not. It might be faster when he holds his breath vs breathing, so we'll try that too. Please run speed tests with blutarsky's arms up vs. arms down, like the old TV's rabbit ears. Also with and without man purse, please. Might affect some purchasing decisions. Thanks! ) Quote
tyrion Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Mine is hanging out in Kentucky as well. Mine is keeping yours company. Isn't that nice. Quote
n_maher Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Mine is keeping yours company. Isn't that nice. From what I'm hearing just about every order is being routed through Kentucky, even West Coast shipments. Quote
shellylh Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Mine is in Kentucky too! China to Alaska to Kentucky doesn't seem like the best way to get to from China to Houston. Hope mine didn't hooked up with the party travel team.... Edit: Just say Nate's post - phew. Quote
tyrion Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 not mine, it's still in china It will be in Louisville any time. Nate, I believe you are correct, posting on macrumors seem to all be in KY. Quote
The Monkey Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 The folks on macrumors are a bunch of idiots. Quote
tyrion Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 The folks on macrumors are a bunch of idiots. Not unlike most other internet forums. Quote
The Monkey Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Not unlike most other internet forums. trudat, but for some reason, I expect more from a mac forum. Quote
n_maher Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 i believe the national UPS air hub is in ketucky. Yup - Worldport (UPS air hub) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Quote
Voltron Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 ^That's funny. I got an email that iPads will be at the Apple Store 9am Saturday! I want to be the first one to touch one so I plan to get there are 9:01. Should be fun. Quote
shellylh Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Got a Pogo Sketch for the Ipad. Now I need to find a note taking program (don't need/want handwriting recognition). Just something to scribble notes down on. Quote
thrice Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Check out Simplenote... great on the iPhone. Quote
shellylh Posted March 31, 2010 Report Posted March 31, 2010 Ah sorry... didn't express my interest properly. I need something I can use for handwritten notes (will be writing math with lots of pictures), just don't need to convert to text. Quote
