Yep, you are allowed to change the pic to whatever you want. Apple provides a handful to start you off. Ha. Yep, you are allowed to change the pic to whatever you want.

You have some solid alternatives on the desktop so if Apple goes that route, you'll see a mass exodus to better alternatives (Ubuntu for me!).

How does this fascist mentality not spread to the desktop eventually? The good: Allowing VOIP over 3G is a pretty big step towards wrestling control of voice communication away from cell companies. With a data connection and Skype, who needs voice service? Plus, as far as my stress level goes, I get far less angry when Skype drops a call (not very often) than when AT&T does (all the friggin time).

I was happy about seeing Apple with their own chipset, but now that I've watched the video, I'm really excited about it. It's a significant step forward, something that we will see more reasons as to why this coming year. You're right… the video nails it.
