I watched the presentation today on the Apple website for OS C Lion, iOS 5 and the iCloud.
I like OS C Lion and iOS 5 and think they are great. The iCloud and how it works is nice. However I still have two very big concerns.
1) How do you know that someone can not hack your information from that is stored in the iCloud?
2) What happens to the iCloud if a virus hits it? How would they prevent an attack.
Perhaps if the iCloud just remains with non import things like music, movies and photos then it will not matter too much. However, when it comes to banking and documents then I do have a security concern.
I have an iPhone 4 and love it. I also have a Dell Inspiron and love it. After watching this long video today I’m very tempted to pick up an iPad II. Nonetheless, I’ll probably hold off and pick up iPhone 5. My guess is that the iPad is probably 3 years from becoming Mainstream and PCs will be thing of the past. Just a guess?
I would worry about storing my own personal important stuff *out there* too. But to be honest, I think a lot of our personal info is kind of out there now, if not in *the cloud*. :( I don’t care about things like music (altho I think I would want a copy of at least what I had somewhere that I could have it so the files could be rebuilt just in case).
