Where or when should I buy the 3gs?

I have not pre-ordered yet, and I've read lots of articles talking that pre-orders have sold out. I live in a less congested area and there is a Best Buy Wal-Mart and AT&T store where I am, (Fort Smith, Arkansas). However, I have other things to do Friday, and couldn't be at either one of those until probably 10:30AM. Should I pre-order from Apple Online today or tomorrow? Or do you think, if I walk into an AT&T store cold halfway through the morning Friday that I should be able to get one since in a smaller area?

Awesome, thanks for the info. I called with the nearest Best Buy since it's an hour and a half away. They couldn't do pre-orders over the phone, but I have a co-worker going up there so I asked if he had my ID if he could pre-order it for me when he pre-orders his own, and they said yes!! Looks like reserving at Best Buy is the route to go as they are guaranteeing 100% that if you pre-order it you will have it Friday!

  • Where and When Should I Buy My 2GB Crucial RAM?

    hello all,
    I'm recently getting an iMac G5 and want to upgrade to 2GB with crucial memory. I'm wondering where or when I can find the best deals on them. If anyone knows it, please let me know. Thank you very much.
    (does this question violate the rule on this board? please ignore this post if it does)

    Buy it directly from Crucial.

  • When should I buy a new battery?

    I've had my macbook for 8 months, I'm just wondering when should I buy a new battery?
    The cycle count is 310, and checking System Profiler, the battery full charge is 5143.
    Should I buy a new battery in a now, or should I not worry about buying a new battery, because I heard 310 cycles was a lot.

    The question really isn't how many cycles your battery has, it is how long your full charge is lasting on a calibrated battery. If you've calibrated your battery within the last 60 days and you are getting less than 2 to 2 1/2 hours on a full charge then it is time to get a new battery. If you are getting 3 to 3 1/2 hours you are fine, regardless of your cycles. If you are in between decide if the $125 or so is well spent to get 4 hours or so.

  • Hi, I have Mac with Snow Leopard and was trying to purchase Lion , so I can move to I cloud, when trying to buy the app I get a message that a minimum 2gb of memory is required. I went check the hard disck info and it says available memory 20gb :-(

    Apple Logo, left hand side of the menu bar, About this Mac. It should be right there. If not then More Info, Sys Info.
    But it would seem you don't have 2GBs installed and more then likely both RAM slots are already filed. So you just need to buy more RAM in a pair. That could be 2 1GBs chips or if your Mac can have more then that then 2 2 GB chips or 2 4GB chips.
    Get your model # and go to Crucial.com and use their memory search to find out how much your Mac can have installed and the price for it. I suggest you install as much as it can take. Cost is very low on RAM these days.

  • Should I Buy the 17" Macbook Pro

    Hi
    Should i buy the 17" Macbook Pro now or should i wait to there have been some reviews of it, or until after August when apple is expected to upgrade to the new 64Bit processors.
    Thanks in advance

    I have written a thread on the problems with the 17"
    Please look at it and be willing to accept that all or none may effect you
    After looking at the whole picture I decided to go ahead and buy a 17"
    Within a week there will be a better picture of how widespread the problems are, you may wish to wait till this point to see.
    I would Not wait for merom
    1) I feel the wait is going to be longer than expected
    2) benefits of merom:
    64 bit: it will be a year or more past introduction for most programs to get to 64bit
    800 FSB: probably be the thing people will notice the most
    4GB maximum ram: 2gb sticks will be outrageously expensive for quite some time, so not a factor unless you are willing to dish out the dough.
    3) given the wattage of merom heat may be a big problem
    Overall I think the benefits of merom will be felt in years not months for most consumers. I am picking up the current 17" to serve me for a few years and then sell on ebay and upgrade to 64 bit.
    I hope this information helps you.

  • Hi..when i'm buying the gem from clash of clans the device say your purchase succesful but i didnt receive any gem

    hi..when i'm buying the gem from clash of clans the device say your purchase succesful but i didnt receive any gem

    I had this problem playing rage of bahamut on my iphone 5 ios 6.1.2. Another side effect was that I could not log into apple forums because it said session timed out. Turned out it was an app called onavo causing the issue by setting up a VPN. For some reason there is a delay in the transfer of data that apple did not like. I just went into the setting and turned the VPN off and all started working again. I don't know about your device but if you do have a VPN set up it should say VPN somewhere at the top near single strength. Hope this helps

  • TS1362 i have downloaded an album off iTunes and some of the songs stop half way they just go silent! should i buy the album again? or what can i do to fix it?

    i have downloaded an album off iTunes and some of the songs stop half way they just go silent! should i buy the album again? or what can i do to fix it?

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • Should I buy the imac with expandable memory slot for future os upgrade size?

    Should I buy the imac with expandable 8gb memory slot for future os upgrade size?

    I Always try to have a little more RAM on my computers that I think I'll need when I purchase them. Either have more ram installed when you order the iMac or purchase one with open slots for upgrading.
    I Purchase my iMac 5K with only 8 GB RAM but it had two open slots. As soon as I received the iMac I purchased two 8 GB modules form Other World Computeing. That brought my RAM to 24 GB. I run multiple applications and the iMac runs smoothly.

  • Should I buy the top-of-the-line 15" MBP or the Baseline 15" model (isa)

    Now, I'm looking to buy a new 15" MBP when Mac OS X Lion comes out (isa). But my problem is should i buy the top-of-the-line model or the Baseline Model (isa).
    So, I'm also waiting for the MBP with the new design maybe 2013 model (isa) so let's say the MBP is going to stay with me for 1 and a half years or two years(isa). I also have to tell you that I'm NOT THAT MUCH OF A GAMER, so tell me guys, with all the info that I've given you. which one do you recommend. O, btw, this is my FIRST Mac (isa).Plus, I'm also planning to upgrade the screen resolution to 1680 by 1050 resolution and the HDD to 500GB@7200RPM (isa)

    It really depends on how your going to use it. For general usage, the baseline 15" model will be fine. The major difference between the baseline and top of the line model is the graphics card. Since you don't do much gaming, the improved graphics the top of the line model offers won't really effect you and the graphics card included in the baseline model is plenty fast any way. The faster processor clock speed offered by the top of the line model will offer a negligible performance improvement in day to day use too, only really benefiting you in more advanced tasks like video editing. 
    Finally, since you only plan to keep the MBP for 1 & 1/2 years, there's really not much point in spending large amounts of money on upgrades when you plan to replace the system soon.
    Overall, in your case, there isn't much point in getting the top of the line model since you don't need the extra graphics performance unless your doing high end video editing, photo editing or gaming (which you say your not). Stick with the baseline model.

  • Should I buy the new MacBook Air or a MacBook Pro

    Should I buy the new MacBook Air or the MacBook Pro?

    it really depends what you are going to be doing, if you are going to be video editing and doing intensive stuff the Macbook Pro.
    if you are going to be just browsing the web and doing lite video editing and not that intensive stuff than you should go with the Macbook Air.
    Also if you want a cheaper computer than you should get the Macbook Air.  By cheap, I mean less expensive.

  • With the new ipad coming out soon, why should I buy the ipad 2?

    with the new ipad coming out soon, why should I buy the ipad 2?

    I can only echo what Pogo says about buying based on what it does today.
    3 weeks ago I bought a Mac Mini. A new Mac Mini model has been rumoured to come out anywhere between the same week I made my purchase and the end of August. None's been released as yet.
    I wanted one in the week of June that I bought mine so I bought it based on the fact that it did what I wanted and I couldn't imagine anything which could be added that I'd want - my MacBook Pro doesn't have Thunderbolt so the most likely addition isn't really going to be much use for me.
    Basically you have to buy what you what based on what's out at the the time.
    I can promise that within seconds of the iPad3 being released, the web will be full of rumours about the next one!

  • I have been considering buying Aperture 3 but the numerous, negative reviews are making me wary.  Should I buy the first version - Aperture 2.1.1 instead?

    I have been considering buying Aperture 3 but the numerous, negative reviews are making me wary.  Should I buy the first version - Aperture 2.1.1 instead? 
    I have a 2009 MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard.  I do not think I will upgrade to Lion because I was warned that it may conflict with some of my applications.
    There have been so many reviews that talk about how Aperture 3 is so slow and spends too much time searching for Faces and eventually crashes.  And, many reviews mention that you need to add to your RAM which I can't do right now, especially on a 3 year old computer.
    There are some copies Aperture 2 on Amazon.  Would that be a good place to buy a copy or a used copy?
    I would appreciate some good advice.  Thanks, Taf Schaefer

    Obviously you haven't read the reviews of Aperture 2
    FWIW I use Ap3 on both a 2010 MBP (8 gigs of Ram) and an 2008 iMac (4 gigs) and I have no crashing issues whatever. Remember, you can disable Faces if you don't want to use that feature.

    I used to use iPhoto and I will probably revert to that (although it has fewer function like no RAW import etc.)
    Just an FYI: iPhoto supports exactly the same Raws as Aperture.

    Hi David,
    I got a gigadesign 1.467 single processor upgrade for my tired 'ol G4 466 about a year ago. I paid around $450 at the time and now they have a 1.8 single for $299!
    I have zero bad things to say about the upgrade. Easy to install (although a little nerve wracking!) and it's been running hassle free ever since. It's given me the juice to take advantage of Space Designer as well as keeping up with my CPU sucking Native Instruments software.
    I did plenty of research as far as compatibility before comitting to the upgrade and have had zero issues.
    Obviously a new computer is the next step but that processor upgrade has kept me chugging along enough to stay in the game thus far.

  • Should i buy the universal dock

    should i buy the universal dock. does the ipod sit tight in the adapter u get with the ipod in the universal dock??? please help need advice

    I bought the universal dock for the new 5th generation ipod. i bought it with the intentions of using it to play music and video through my entertainment center. 2 things have gone terribly wrong with this idea. 1) i can't have the dock connected to power outlet while playing music as a residual hum blows through the speakers. i've tried both turning the volume down on the ipod and disconnecting the power supply. the later is the solution that worked but defeats the purpose of charging while playing music. 2) the apple cords i have are not working with video playback. audio works fine, with adjustment foremetioned, but no video is coming through to tv.
