@BigBirdUK, Blackstar, NBurt, nklr, RedBull Runner, and everyone else mocking the victims with fire-related music,
I hope your houses get burnt down too, cause obviously you have no idea what it's like to lose your house to a fire. Like FireHouse's song, "Get a Life".
See lotzosushi, you (and several others) missed the point. No one is making fun of the victims. We are making fun of the gift idea from a corporation TO the victims. And for the record, I did almost lose my house in a fire over 25 years ago. And believe me, I can think of 50 things I would much rather have given to me if I had lost everything I own, than a music player I can't put music on cause I have no computer and can't even charge it anyway because I have no house with outlets to plug it in. If Apple REALLY wanted to make a seriously meaningful contribution, how about: Red Cross Donations, provide temporary shelters, pay for hotel stays for families, replace the Apple computers people lost, donate emergency food and water supplies? All of which I (and many others) would appreciate far more then getting to listen to mp3s again.
During his WWDC keynote, Steve Jobs touted iCloud as a service that will sync many of your Apple devices, for free. Macs, iPhones, iPads, and even Windows computers can synchronize documents, contacts, calendar appointments, and other data.
