Guys, this thread was only "official" until 03/23!
You should have created a new one - the "official Apple store was down" thread!

And, what about 2778? When Apple releases OS XV 15.6 "We're Finally Out Of Cat Names"?

Does Doofy know about your signature??? I don't know if that's always been that way, but I'm just noticing it, and its certainly a little hidden.

I believe 13.7 would make it OS XIIV, but yes, Mr. Bigglesworth's days were the good 'ol days. Its a shame they didn't include application support for it in 14 though.

Hey, I read that Apple has stopped selling iPhones in the US and the UK.

Although I don't expect any updates until WWDC.

MacNN | US, UK Apple Stores halt iPhone orders

I have read reports that other countries stopped as well.

Seems like a strong EOL indicator.

Btw, someone over at Engadget said that Apple doesn't necessarily need FCC approval for the 3G iPhone. There are supposedly a couple of pre-approved G3 chips. If Apple uses one of them, they would not have to go through a full-blown FCC approval. Thought that was quite interesting.

Well, it's that time of the month again.

Probably a preemptive update strike for the iPhone 3G introduction.
