You can use 3rd party browsers to download files off the internet and the app Filer lets you unpack zips and rar files in which you can then play in 3rd party video players like AVPlayerHD and whatnot.

Totally possible.

Another castle right next door.

I stand corrected.

Thank the lord for vectors. Hopefully means a minimal increase in size, if implemented properly.

Yeah, I used own of the browsers, but was wondering if there was something else out there, hadn't heard of Filer, may check it out.

 

[Robobandit]

Ah. I see the situation has changed with regard to video players.. nice to see.

 

[ParityBit]

So I ordered my new iPad Saturday. Shipped yesterday and for some reason it is being rushed. The UPS tracker says the date was moved from Monday to tomorrow. If true, that is really awesome of Apple.

 

[Zeth]

Amazing if true:-

Indeed. I thought it was strange that during the retina demo videos on the site, they show IB2 running, and it cuts to a cropped in shot super close to the display.

24-Hour WalMart only 5 miles away from the house...already working from home tomorrow...get to be one of the first GAFers to get an iPad and wave my e-Penis wildly in the air...

That you're framing this as a positive demonstrates just how clouded your judgment is right now.

My hype level is officially through the damn roof now that I'm seeing apps and games I love being upgraded already. I would have been happy browsing my library of dslr photos for a few months, but this shit is fantastic!

 

[Keylime]

I'm pretty seriously considering it, not going to lie. I walk around a Walmart for a couple hours, get an iPad tonight to play with tonight and just return the one I originally bought back to Apple over the weekend.

If the wait at Walmart is small or non-existent...totally worth it.

 

[DJ88]

It's crazy to consider finding a 24-hour Wal-Mart and camping it tonight and buying an iPad with the intent to just return the one that eventually gets delivered to me tomorrow right?

...that's stupid, right?

...right?

...

...

I'm doing this, except I'm doing it because I want a 32GB after ordering the 16GB and regretting it. Already called the nearest Walmart and cofirmed they'll be selling them at midnight. If I succeed I'll be on here tonight posting some pics.

My exact thoughts...except i have 1 coming tomorrow that I plan to return, and another coming next week that I'd keep if I don't go tonight...

I don't think there's a high enough resolution version of that picture to be worth looking at!

If you do this you're using the iPad wrong.. Get a Transformer Prime if you want to play with files like this.

What? Why? That workflow I just laid out works completely fine.

Browser to download file
Open file in Filer
Unzip/Unrar in Filer
Open file in AVPlayer of choice
Watch video

Mission accomplished! What's the problem?

Considering beating myself up so I can pass out quicker. What time do UPS usually deliver?

I got mine yesterday so I assume that means my item is ready to be liberated.

 

[Jeff Albertson]

Tomorrow is going to suck sitting in all day waiting then it eventully turns up at night, UKmail shows mine as collected this morning then nothing since

 

[HoTHiTTeR]

Real Racing 2 also got an update. Runs at 2048x1536 with 4xAA.

Did the app get larger? By how much?

 

[ParityBit]

Ib2 has an update out now too

 

[CrunchinJelly]

Stop quoting RubxQub guys, it's making my ignore list useless =P

Also, my sad attempt at searching for unboxing videos has so far been a big failure. Am I the only one that gets a sick high off of watching unboxings?

I'm not into unboxing videos, but I definitely love line porn. This launch has been a failure in that respect.

I wanna see something like this:

 

[madmook]

Has the YouTube app changed any? On the iPad 1 it's pretty basic, would like a bit more functionality, like playlists and whatnot.

lol no way. Watching an unboxing video is the same as reading the last few pages of a book. Why spoil yourself!

 

[Appleman]

But I already KNOW what's in the box, so I have no idea why I still watch them. I watch more than one person unbox the same product, I have a problem

 

[planar1280]

anyone from Harrisburg GAF going to the 24 hour walmart? i might get another one.

 

[NekoFever]

Did Infinity Blade II get smaller? The one in iTunes is 940.4MB, but the update that's downloading is only 791MB.

 

[Keylime]

Already called the 24-hour Walmart near me and she confirmed they're selling them. No line at this point so it seems like an easy snag with minimal to no wait if you don't have a highly active store near you.

Pretty sure I'm going to show up at 10 and see what happens. If there's no one there I'll just wait and get one. If there's a crazy line, I'll just wait until tomorrow. No harm no foul.

 

[HoTHiTTeR]

Thank you basedfedex!

Apple TV get!

 

[mrklaw]

Alright, one last push to help me decide on smart cover.

Navy or Red.

Heading to the Apple store in downtown SF after work today to get it.

So far, I have 3 votes for red and none for navy (though blue is my favorite color).

Like the light blue but I think the navy is too dark

 

[planar1280]

The new iPad bleeds color initially

though not as bad as iPad 2

iPad 3
