How about some bug fixes for the Mac OS version of iPhoto? It is the one Apple program that I am constantly cursing at. It has so many bugs and usability problems, I can't believe Apple has let this current version be so bad for so long.
I hear that a lot, but haven't used it for ages. I moved to Aperture when it was at v1.5, quite strange for Apple to leave it stagnant at v3 for 24 months now. Bug fixes, yes, innovation, nothing. Maybe a new version together with a new Mac Pro?
How about Cards for the iPad, Apple?

i use iPhoto on my Mac every other day if not every day and I haven't seen any bugs or other issues. What exactly are you referring to.
iPhoto for iOS 1.0.1 didn't fix a very annoying issue that is keeping me from using it at all. Using the Mac version of iPhoto, I've scanned in thousands of photos from old scrapbooks, and manually set their dates/times as best as I could so when I open an Event, they all appear in chronological order. Once synced with my iPhone and opened up in iPhoto 1.0.1, the date/time changes are all gone, defaulting back to when the images were scanned in. That destroys the chronological order of photos within the Event. I know the dates/times never synced, because I brought up the "Info" screen for a photo, and it showed the original scanned-in date, not the modified date. Interestingly, the stock Photos iPhone app DOES recognize the modified dates/times, and shows the photos within an Event just like my Mac.
If you read the comments on the updated 1.0.1 version on the iTunes App Store, just about all of them complain about one or more bugs. Honestly, I don't know how this app got such glowing reviews when it first came out.
oh this is great! i always got pissed off with those bugs specially with imovie and garageband. thanks for the news and links. gotta download it now :D
