I just uploaded a PDF called Handy Smart Playlists written by my friend Mark Sheppard. If you use or plan to use the iTunes Music Match, this PDF is for you. After Music Match is done, this PDF will help you create a few playlists that will help clean up your iTunes. The instructions are easy to follow, even for the new person just starting out. Any feedback would be appreciated. I'll pass it along to Mark Sheppard. It's the first PDF he's written.

Here's the link: http://f1.grp.yahoofs.com/v1/AKMcT_FRS00Rs0f2GESqHezsh9bhAma0H-B60YMOT3IL37RkfmOh9GYMGKRizFDESIJE-UNeB-vBdE0V3M-jOA/Handy%20Smart%20Playlists.pdf

Sent to you by Bill Boulware via Google Reader: Verizon admits that the
majority of the smartphones it sold last quarter were 3G iPhones via
9to5Mac by Jordan Kahn on 1/24/12



Despite reports that Verizon's fourth quarter earnings were hurt mainly
by high subsidies for iPhone, Verizon announced on Tuesday it sold 4.3
million iPhones– over 50 percent of the 7.7 million total smartphones
sold during the quarter. This statistic follows reports earlier this
month that Verizon sold approximately 4.2 million iPhones during the
holiday quarter. Compare that figure to the 1.6 million 4G LTE
smartphones sold during the same quarter, of which the carrier offers
more than 18 (mostly Android) devices versus a few iPhone models. These
numbers show consumers are still choosing 3G iOS devices over the
latest generation of 4G LTE smartphones from other vendors.

According to Barclays Capital analyst James Ratcliffe, even with the
high subsidy, Verizon will see a positive cash flow of approximately
$1,600 per iPhone. His estimate is based on the nearly $2,000 spent
over a two-year contract and a $400 subsidy for the same period.
Ratcliffe explained to Bloomberg:



"The average smartphone customer will spend about $2,000 over the
two-year contract, if the subsidy is $400, you're still getting $1,600,
and that's very cash-flow positive."

Verizon reported revenue from smartphone sales as the largest
contributor to growth, doubling last year's figures to $2.2 billion,
adding 1.2 million subscribers for a new total of 87.4 million devices
on contract, and a total of $18.3 billion in Q4 revenues. Strong
wirless revenues were largely attributed to a 19 percent increase in
data sales, while total sales hit $28.4 billion, a 7.7 percent
increase. Full press release from Verizon below.

NEW YORK – January 24, 2012 – 4Q 2011 HIGHLIGHTS

Consolidated

7.7 percent year-over-year quarterly revenue growth in 4Q, a company
record.
A loss of 71 cents in diluted earnings per share (EPS), impacted by
non-cash pension items, compared with earnings of 93 cents per share in
4Q 2010.
52 cents per share in adjusted EPS (non-GAAP), which excludes $1.23 per
share in non-operational items, compared with 54 cents in adjusted EPS
in 4Q 2010.

Wireless

$18.3 billion in total 4Q revenues, up 13.0 percent year over year;
data revenues of $6.3 billion, up 19.2 percent, representing 41.6
percent of service revenues; $15.1 billion in service revenues, up 6.4
percent.
1.5 million retail net additions (excluding acquisitions and
adjustments), largest increase in three years, includes 1.2 million
retail postpaid net customer additions; 108.7 million total
connections, includes 92.2 million retail customers.
2.6 percent growth in retail service ARPU over 4Q 2010; retail postpaid
data ARPU up 14.3 percent.
23.7 percent operating income margin; 42.2 percent Segment EBITDA
margin on service revenues (non-GAAP).


Wireline

201,000 FiOS Internet and 194,000 FiOS Video net additions, with
increased sales penetration for both products; net increase of 98,000
broadband connections from 3Q 2011.
8.5 percent year-over-year increase in consumer ARPU; FiOS ARPU was
more than $148 per month.
14.7 percent increase in strategic services revenues, representing 51
percent of global enterprise revenues.
3.0 percent operating income margin; 23.8 percent Segment EBITDA margin
(non-GAAP), compared with 23.5 percent in 4Q 2010 and 21.4 percent in
3Q 2011.

NEW YORK – Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE, Nasdaq: VZ) posted the
highest year-over-year quarterly revenue growth in the company's
11-year history in fourth-quarter 2011, fueled by continued strong
demand for Verizon Wireless services and handsets, FiOS fiber-optic
services, and strategic business products and services.

'Great Momentum for 2012′

"Verizon finished 2011 very strong, both in terms of revenue growth and
by delivering an 18.2 percent total return to our shareholders for the
full year, and the company has great momentum for 2012," said Lowell
McAdam, Verizon chairman, president and chief executive officer.
"Verizon Wireless produced particularly strong growth in the fourth
quarter. While that diluted wireless margins in the short term, it is
good news for revenue and margin growth over the long term,
particularly given our leadership in the rapidly developing 4G LTE
ecosystem."

McAdam added: "Wireline margins recovered from third-quarter pressures,
and we expect wireline margin expansion in 2012. With recent strategic
moves and our investments in FiOS, LTE, and global IP and cloud-based
strategic services, Verizon has set the stage for accelerated growth
across our business units, and we look to continue to build significant
value for shareholders in 2012."

Verizon's total shareholder return is a combination of stock-price
appreciation and dividend payments. Regarding recent strategic moves,
Verizon last month strengthened its ability to provide fully integrated
solutions by creating Verizon Enterprise Solutions, a sales and
marketing organization, to harness all of Verizon's solutions for
business and government customers globally. In addition, Verizon
Wireless announced agreements to purchase AWS (Advanced Wireless
Spectrum) licenses, an important step toward meeting customers' needs
for wireless data and broadband services.

4Q and Full-Year Earnings Results

Due primarily to the impact of previously announced non-cash pension
items, Verizon reported a loss of 71 cents in EPS in fourth-quarter
2011, compared with earnings of 93 cents per share in fourth-quarter
2010.

Adjusted fourth-quarter 2011 earnings (non-GAAP) of 52 cents per share
exclude $1.20 per share, or $3.4 billion after-tax, due to the
actuarial valuation of Verizon's benefit plans, and 3 cents per share
for the early extinguishment of debt. This annual valuation adjustment,
resulting from changes in actuarial assumptions, is in accordance with
a Verizon accounting policy adopted last year. Comparable adjusted
fourth-quarter 2010 earnings were 54 cents per share, excluding the
impact of non-operational items, the largest of which was a gain from
benefit-plan valuation of 44 cents per share.

On an annual basis, Verizon reported 85 cents in 2011 EPS, compared
with 90 cents per share in 2010. Adjusted annual EPS (non-GAAP) was
$2.15 in 2011, compared with $2.08 on a comparable basis (non-GAAP,
excluding results from divested businesses) in 2010.

Consolidated Revenue Growth, Strong Cash Flows

In fourth-quarter 2011, Verizon's total operating revenues were $28.4
billion on a consolidated basis, an increase of 7.7 percent compared
with fourth-quarter 2010. For full-year 2011, revenues totaled $110.9
billion, a 4.0 percent increase compared with 2010, when results
included revenues from operations that have since been divested. On a
comparable basis (non-GAAP), Verizon's 2011 full-year revenues
increased 6.2 percent compared with 2010.

Consolidated EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization) totaled $29.4 billion in 2011. On an adjusted basis
(non-GAAP), EBITDA increased by more than $950 million in 2011 compared
with 2010.

Cash flow from operating activities totaled $29.8 billion in 2011, and
capital expenditures totaled $16.2 billion. Free cash flow (non-GAAP,
cash flow from operations less capex) was more than $13.5 billion in
2011. From this total, Verizon returned $5.6 billion in quarterly
dividends to shareholders in 2011, as the company's Board of Directors
approved a fifth consecutive year of dividend increases.

Verizon Wireless Delivers Strong Customer and Revenue Growth

In fourth-quarter 2011, Verizon Wireless delivered the highest number
of retail net additions in three years and strong growth in revenues,
driven by increased smartphone penetration and increased retail
postpaid ARPU (average monthly service revenue per user).

Wireless Financial Highlights

Total revenues were $18.3 billion in fourth-quarter 2011, up 13.0
percent year over year. Data revenues were $6.3 billion, up more than
$1.0 billion or 19.2 percent year over year, and represented 41.6
percent of all service revenues. Service revenues were $15.1 billion,
up 6.4 percent year over year. For full-year 2011, total revenues were
$70.2 billion, up 10.6 percent over full-year 2010, and service
revenues were $59.2 billion in 2011, up 6.3 percent year over year.

Retail service ARPU grew 2.6 percent over fourth-quarter 2010, to
$53.14. Retail postpaid ARPU grew 2.5 percent, to $54.80. Retail
postpaid data ARPU increased to $22.76, up 14.3 percent year over year.

In fourth-quarter 2011, wireless operating income margin was 23.7
percent, and wireless generated $6.4 billion of EBITDA. Segment EBITDA
margin on service revenues (non-GAAP) was 42.2 percent, down 530 basis
points from fourth-quarter 2010. For full-year 2011, operating income
margin was 26.4 percent, down 310 basis points from full-year 2010;
Segment EBITDA margin was 44.8 percent, down 210 basis points.
Wireless Operational Highlights

Verizon Wireless added 1.0 million total net connections in
fourth-quarter 2011. The company added 1.5 million retail customers,
including 1.2 million retail postpaid customers. While the wholesale
channel grew during the fourth quarter, a loss of telematics customers
resulted in a net decrease of 490,000 wholesale and other connections
in the quarter. These totals exclude acquisitions and adjustments.

At year-end 2011, the company had 108.7 million total connections, a
6.3 percent increase year over year, consisting of 92.2 million retail
connections and 16.5 million wholesale and other connections.

At year-end 2011, smartphones accounted for 44 percent of the Verizon
Wireless retail postpaid customer phone base, up from 39 percent at the
end of third-quarter 2011.

Retail postpaid churn was 0.94 percent in fourth-quarter 2011, an
improvement of 7 basis points year over year. Total retail churn was
1.23 percent, an improvement of 14 basis points year over year.

Verizon Wireless continued to roll out its 4G LTE mobile broadband
network, the largest 4G LTE network in the U.S. As of Monday (Jan. 23),
Verizon Wireless 4G LTE service was available to more than 200 million
people in 195 markets across the U.S.

Verizon Wireless introduced six new 4G LTE devices in fourth-quarter
2011: the Droid Razr by Motorola; the Samsung Stratosphere; the HTC
Rezound; the Galaxy Nexus by Samsung; and Droid Xyboard tablets in
10.1-inch and 8-inch form factors. Earlier this month, the company
announced that six additional 4G LTE devices would be available in the
coming weeks, including two mobile hotspots, now called Jetpacks, from
ZTE and Novatel; three smartphones – the Droid 4 and Droid Razr Maxx
from Motorola, and the Spectrum from LG, which launched last week; and
the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7.

In December, Verizon Wireless announced agreements to purchase AWS
licenses from SpectrumCo – a joint venture of Comcast, Time Warner and
Bright House Networks – and from Cox TMI Wireless. The spectrum
licenses under the two agreements cover 93 percent of the U.S.
population, and the purchases are subject to regulatory approval.

Verizon Wireless' 4G LTE network was ranked No. 1 on PC World's 100
Best Products of 2011 list. In October, RootMetrics ranked Verizon
Wireless tops for network performance in Boston and 21 other cities
nationwide; in November, Verizon Wireless won the RootMetrics RootScore
award for data performance in 36 markets.
FiOS, Strategic Services Contribute to Revenue Growth

In fourth-quarter 2011, revenues and customers continued to increase
for FiOS services, and sales of strategic services to business
customers remained strong. Segment EBITDA margins (non-GAAP) also
increased both sequentially and year over year.

Wireline Financial Highlights

Fourth-quarter 2011 operating revenues were $10.1 billion, a decline of
1.5 percent compared with fourth-quarter 2010. Consumer revenues grew
1.3 percent compared with fourth-quarter 2010.

In fourth-quarter 2011, wireline operating income was $300 million, up
18.6 percent from fourth-quarter 2010. Segment EBITDA (non-GAAP) was
$2.4 billion in fourth-quarter 2011, flat compared with fourth-quarter
2010 and an increase of $243 million from third-quarter 2011, when the
Segment EBITDA was impacted by storm-related repair costs and a
two-week strike. Operating income margin was 3.0 percent in
fourth-quarter 2011. Segment EBITDA margin (non-GAAP) was 23.8 percent,
compared with 23.5 percent in fourth-quarter 2010 and 21.4 percent in
third-quarter 2011.

Consumer ARPU for wireline services was $96.43 in fourth-quarter 2011,
up 8.5 percent compared with fourth-quarter 2010. ARPU for FiOS
customers totaled more than $148 in fourth-quarter 2011, rising
approximately $2 year over year. FiOS services to consumer retail
customers represented 61 percent of consumer wireline revenues in
fourth-quarter 2011.

Global enterprise revenues totaled $3.9 billion in the quarter, up 1.3
percent compared with fourth-quarter 2010. Sales of strategic services
– including Terremark cloud services, security and IT solutions, and
strategic networking – increased 14.7 percent compared with
fourth-quarter 2010 and represented 51 percent of global enterprise
revenues in fourth-quarter 2011.

Wireline Operational Highlights

Verizon added 201,000 net new FiOS Internet connections and 194,000 net
new FiOS Video connections in fourth-quarter 2011. Verizon had a total
of 4.8 million FiOS Internet and 4.2 million FiOS Video connections at
year-end.

FiOS penetration (subscribers as a percentage of potential subscribers)
continued to increase. FiOS Internet penetration was 35.5 percent at
year-end 2011, compared with 31.9 percent at year-end 2010. In the same
periods, FiOS Video penetration was 31.5 percent, compared with 28.0
percent, respectively. The FiOS network passed 16.5 million premises at
year-end 2011, up more than 900,000 from year-end 2010.

Broadband connections totaled 8.7 million at year-end 2011, a 3.3
percent year-over-year increase. FiOS Internet connections more than
offset a decrease in DSL-based HSI connections, resulting in a net
increase of 98,000 broadband connections from third-quarter 2011. Total
voice connections, which measures FiOS Digital Voice connections in
addition to traditional switched access lines, declined 7.2 percent to
24.1 million – the smallest year-over-year decline since first-quarter
2006.

Verizon continued to enhance its global portfolio of secure IT and
advanced communications platforms and industry-focused solutions. In
fourth-quarter 2011, this included an expansion of the company's
Voice-over-IP service within the Asia-Pacific region and the rollout of
an automated healthcare fraud-detection platform for private health
insurers and government agencies.

Multinational corporations, leading businesses and government agencies
– including Accenture plc; Chrysler Group LLC; the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania; GXS Inc.; MagnaCare Holdings Inc.; Tyson Foods Inc.;
Consolidated Edison Company of New York Inc.; and Orange and Rockland
Utilities Inc., a Con Edison subsidiary – completed new agreements or
expanded their relationships with Verizon for a range of advanced
communications and information technology solutions. Verizon also
announced that it had been named a prime contractor under the U.S.
General Services Administration's CONNECTIONS II contract to provide
professional and managed services and custom networking solutions at
federal facilities.

Verizon continued to broaden the scope and capabilities of its network
infrastructure. In fourth-quarter 2011, the company completed
deployment of its next-generation 100 gigabit-per-second network route
between New York City and Chicago and kicked off seven additional
routes in the U.S.; expanded the Ethernet footprint to an additional 80
nodes supporting 23 areas in the Eastern part of the U.S.; expanded the
global Private IP network into six additional countries in Africa and
two more countries in the Middle East; and activated the first phase of
the Europe India Gateway (EIG) submarine cable connecting Europe to the
Middle East and Africa with 40G high-speed connections.

Re: Charging cord for my iPhone

I've been getting the cheap charging cords on ebay. $2 and they seem

Also bought at least five pairs of $3 headphones. Two pairs have gone
bad (although I honestly have no idea whether they were my older
expensive one sor the new ones!)
