Concept Idea - Like the iPod nano - ability to twist to rotate screen (when having orientation lock selected - for times when you don't want the screen moving around a bunch etc)
USB Audio pulled on latest beta - bug or the future? ...

Apple updates MobileMe Gallery app to add an iPad interface, photo frame feature, and access for non-MobileMe members - http://www.macworld.com/article/154526/2010/10/mobileme_gallery_ipad.html?lsrc=twt_chartier
First, it expanded the “recent photos” ticker area of the iPhone version into a full-blown photo frame feature for the iPad. When you sign into your account or add a friend’s gallery, the entire app interface becomes two slowly rotating rows of the most recent photos.
Speaking of friends’ galleries, the second new feature is that you no longer need to be a MobileMe member to use this app. You can either sign into your own account or tap a new “Add a friend” button at the login screen to browse through your MobileMe friends’ galleries without signing up for the service.

LISTENER FEEDBACK
Hi Tim,
I do not know if this is of interest to you but I saw this and thought
of your show.
Do you watch the tv show "The Good Wife"?
The first episode of the second season has the first appearance of
iPad product placement in a TV show that I have seen. The law firm
that the lead works for gets a new partner who wants to to move
towards a paperless office and hands out iPad to everyone. The
wallpaper is branded for the law firm and the camera focusses in on
the device in her hand for a noticeable few seconds.
Regards
Mike
