Thanks Erica, I didn't even think of that for some reason! And yeah, crazy4pie, you can select the apps, but I have a lot of them and was looking for a way to avoid doing that :) ...which I have now thanks to Erica.

Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but I think you're answering a slightly different question. I think the original question was why does the iPhone (and iPad) reinstall items that were deleted from the device, not from iTunes (which is how I'm reading the answer).

I have the same issue actually. I don't want to delete the apps from iTunes, I like to reinstall some for different purposes, like the Lonely Planet guides. I don't need them now, but may on vacation. When I sync my device they get put back on.

Oooh, I could use some of that stuff!

Yeah, bad site TUAW. The free ones aren't free (well, one of them might be, it said wasn't available in the US store).

They should work for sound no problem, but the controls won't do anything.

I'm not sure why you compared these to the iphone headphones...they're not compatible with the iphone according to Apple.

No, they did not adopt 24 hour time from military occupation. Much, if not most, of the world uses 24 hour clocks. Only in the US is it "millitary" time.

The problem that no one has mentioned (obviously I'm the only bartender here) is that it pours perfect drinks. Guess what, when you're cool and/or you tip a little extra, you get more than a shot in your drink from a live bartender. You have no leeway with this. It's the same as the "electronic pour spouts" you see at some bars. They don't allow for over pour. While that's great for keeping costs down at the bar, it's bad for the customer. If I like you, you'll get an 8 or 9 count on your Captain and Coke instead of the "regulation" 6 count, with these, there's no variance.

Too bad they won't sell a single one in the U.S. They wouldn't get anywhere before they were sued into bankruptcy. A 3 year old would be able to see what a complete rip off this is.

How have you not changed the headline yet TUAW???? This is completely irresponsible reporting. Your headline is innacurate as hell, almost libel actually.
