I also like it a lot. My only complaint is that my album art doesn't display consistently on every track as they play even though all show properly in iTunes on my computer.

Does anyone know how to do this old trick in email, striking thru a word or phrase so it still remains in the text?
TIA,

And some commercial Apps are restricted to be used on only a single device.

Sent to you by Bill Boulware via Google Reader: AT&T doubles handset
upgrade fee to $36 via BGR: The Three Biggest Letters In Tech by Zach
Epstein on 2/10/12
AT&T is increasing the fee charged when subscribers upgrade to new
handsets on contract beginning this Sunday. BGR has been informed by
multiple readers via email that AT&T has sent them notices regarding
the new fee, which had previously been $18. "Because the overall costs
associated with upgrading to a new device have increased, effective
Sunday, February 12, 2012, AT&T will change its upgrade fee from $18 to
$36," AT&T said in a note to dealers obtained by BGR. An AT&T
spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment. A
portion of the memo follows below.

VPN recommendation
Posted by: "Norma Steele" noearthspam@gmail.com nosteele
Fri Feb 10, 2012 4:13 pm (PST)
I am looking for recommendations for VPNs to use with my iPad and/or
iPhone. Awhile ago I used Hotshield when it was free but there is now a
fee.
If there is no decent free VPN I am willing to pay a monthly fee but having
browsed through many different ones found through a google search, nothing
jumped out at me as a clear winner.
I would like something that is simple to setup. I see that there are
different protocols PPTP and OpenVPN, don't know the difference between the
two so I will have to research that.
Anyone have a recommendation?

Really basic music question
Posted by: "Devitt" devittad@comcast.net devittad
Fri Feb 10, 2012 4:14 pm (PST)
Though I've had an iPhone for 3 years, I never used it for music. Today I decided to sync a few albums through iTunes via USB. Now I can't find them. I looked in iTunes on the 4s but they're not there. When I look in the "Music" section a few are listed with a cloud symbol next to them. The albums I ripped into iTunes on my Mac don't appear at all.
Am I doing something wrong?

Is there an app to turn my ringer back on?

4S OS5
When I mute my phone to go into the movies or such I always forget to turn it back on when I leave the show. I've seen phones that have a feature that when you mute the phone you can tell it how long to be muted for and it will turn the ringer back on automatically at the perscribed time. Is there an app that will let my iPhone do this?
Thanks in advance, Bob

Bob,
Since you indicate that you have an iPhone 4S why not let Siri remind you to turn your ringer back on when you leave your present location.
