Will iOS 6 fix my iphone then? Because I have never installed a piece of software that degraded a product like the pos that is iOS 5.1.1 did.

Some secret Apple sauce must have stopped you doing just that and pocketing some cash.

How?

I've reset the iPhone, the router, changed passwords, removed security, restore security. I've done everything and short of sitting next to the router I don't get a signal.

All Apple have announced today is the death of the Pro range, I was also hoping for an iMac update but nothing on that front either.

Time for a fully specced Windows machine I think, been waiting a couple of months to see if there would be a new iMac.

I sense change at Apple, if it's not iPhone, iPad or MacBook they're not interested.

I disagree. I think they're taking the xServe route and dropped the price and will let the range disappear.

Well they did update them, only ever slightly

But maybe things are coming for the pro range

Update: A MacRumors reader writes in to share an email he received from Apple CEO Tim Cook after he asked about the future of the Mac Pro:
Our pro customers are really important to us...don't worry as we're working on something really great for later next year.

Disappointing about the mac pro, or lack of news.
A rumour of an email to a mate from some who might have been ceo, maybe..... Well, you'll excuse me if I don't pin my business-hopes on that
Sadly, even if true, a year is a LONG time in the audio and video/visual world. With the current macpro starting to look its age, Apple MAY have missed the boat as its customers require more expansion and power than the iMac can provide.....

But then again, whilst market-leaders in this area, the growth is in consumer, so I understand why the business model focus may have changed.

LOL at the usual Apple thread, the realists vs Jack and his dozy disciples.

I sense that more and more Apple users are getting bored of their products.
May be they are realising that there are better and cheaper alternitives out there!

Fully agree with you. That year wait is long enough but couple that with nearly two years since the last major revision and you get the feeling that the Mac Pro range is becoming the 'elephant in the room'
My take on it is that they are either going to do something really great with it in time or just let it go, nothing in between. I really do hope it is the former but we have seen them, like Hanley says, do this before with XServe
