Okay, I think $100k is a *little* excessive... and could encourage those who aren't as passionate about children to pursue a teaching job just for the money.
I think starting at $50-60k would be more than reasonable... I mean for only working 9 months out of the year plus receiving the benefits that teachers usually do... that'll sweeten the deal a lot. Especially in my field, physics, the way things are now I could either start as a teacher for $40k if I'm very lucky, or $50k+ in the industry. I'm just out of college and as poor as a rat... what do you think I would do? I'm not Mr. Materialistic or anything, but I have school and an apartment to pay for.
I think the real monetary incentive in teaching should be the bottom right corner of the matrix... those who have higher degrees and have worked for many years. It'll encourage people to be into teaching for the long-haul. However, that might introduce problems with ever-changing research on effective teaching styles, so maybe that isn't just a great idea.
Just some thoughts.

you obviously haven't taught before, have you? for "only" working 9 months...the fact is, if teaching were a year-round gig, no one would do it. and i don't know what "benefits" you're talking about. someone once figured out that if you count all the out-of-school hours that teachers spend on grading, prepping, etc., many teachers are actually paid less than minimum wage.
i've always felt that not only are good teachers worth $100grand/year, but that kind of salary would make teaching competitive so that bright, enthusiastic, and promising individuals would have a reason to pursue teaching and not be turned off by the poor wages. yes, there will be some who pursue it strictly for the money, but if the wages are high enough, there will be increased competition for jobs and the good teachers will more often than not get the jobs. bad teachers or those who don't care about the kids are easy to identify.
my 2 cents...sorry for the OT rant.

The screen may not change on the next revision. So there may be no need to change production.
This contradicts the larger screen on the same frame size rumor.

Apple probably knows how many people buy iPhones so late in the release cycle, and they obviously still decided that it was worth releasing the white version at this time. I think that this might actually make quite a lot of people buy a white one now rather than wait for the iPhone 5, which isn't even guaranteed to appear in June.

Guessing that MobileMe (as it is now) will go free, and then the premium service will allow backup and access to all your system. $100 a year for that would definitely be worth it.
But what about the $107 I just paid for MobileMe LAST WEEK???

Is it possible to use the built in iSight in iMovie? I just tried it out today when I was messing around with FCP and iMovie and I noticed I couldn't do it.
Does anyone know?

it's not like the new android phones are so much better than last year. so far the only dual core ARM Core A9 phone is the Motorola Atrix and it wasn't that good. The VZW Thunderbolt is last year's CPU with LTE. My HTC INspire 4G is the same CPU as the Thunderbolt with HSPA+ and the iphone 4 beats it in uploads
*keeps on wondering if the US of A is the only country with a modern tech mobile phone embargo*
You have heard about the LG Optimus Speed or the Samsung Galaxy S2, haven't you? Aren't they available in the US, because I can order them on Amazon Germany now just one click away!

Do you really think there is a limit to how much storage people want? People would rather shuffle more songs than less.
people always want more.
but do the math... 240 songs... average time per song 3 minutes
240 x 3 = 720 minutes / 60 = 12 hours current shuffle battery time
next year we might see a 2GB shuffle with 24 hour battery time

a conversation i just had with a mac specialist.
You are chatting with Scott C, an Apple Expert
scott- Hi, my name is Scott C. How may I help you today?
me- im just checking out this new applestore online feature
me- its pretty cool
scott- Good morning
me- can i pre-order my iPhone here when it comes out in january?
me- how much is that going to run, i want to order that now.
scott- I am not familiar with the iPhone.
me- oh
me- you are not familiar with it?
me- well i was going to wait for it to come out so i could buy it and use it as my phone
scott- I am unaware of any future or unreleased products.
me- but since you are unfamiliar with it, im going to go buy a microsoft windows phone and lock myself into a 2 year contract in which i will be unable to purchase any other phone
i wont be buying the iPhone. :(
i thought it was coming out soon
but since you are unaware, im going to have to get myself an HP iPaq
scott- There are rumors posted online about it, but I am unaware of any factual information about it.
me- oh
me- i heard about it on TV though
me- im one of those people who believes everything they see on TV, not really... but i was quite taken by the iphone they showed on TV and i was going to wait because i know Apple releases the highest quality products i know of. buying the phone they made was going to be my next tech purchase
but now i am going to go get a $400 HP iPaq and lock myself into it for 2 years
scott- Well, it might be worth it to wait and see if Apple does release one then.
me- oooookkkk
me- thank you
scott- Thank you for visiting the Apple Store. We appreciate your business.
me- thank you for chatting
A convesation that bboyredcel had with himself.
bboyredcel- Hi, I'm a stupid moron and I want to show people that I think I'm really cute.
himself- Let's pretend you, bboyredcel, call Apple and ask them about the iPhone.
bboyredcel- Yeah and I, bboyredcel, can pretend that I know more than the Apple Expert.
himself- You could then threaten to purchase a competitor's product.
bboyredcel- Yeah, I bet that would really upset him.
himself- And while you're at it you can show the world or at least those who read this page, how stupid you really are.
bboyredcel- What.
himself- Well, everyone who reads MacRumors should know how Apple operates by now. You might as well be calling Apple about a rumored iPizzaMaker or something.
bboyredcel- Really Apple is working on an iPizzaMaker.
himself- God, I wish someone would just lobotomize me!

They most likely can't check it, so you should sell it to a person, not a store.
