• With the number of recent threads from brand new users that we have observed in our Classifieds forum selling goods under questionable circumstances, we have instituted a new policy restricting new members of iLounge from posting new threads in the Classifieds forum until they have reached "Regular Member" status.

    New users become Regular Members once they have made 10 posts and been a member of the iLounge Forums for at least 7 days. Prior to this time, members may still read the Classifieds forum, and even respond to existing threads for items being sold by other members, but they may not create new threads advertising their own items for sale.

    This will hopefully help to protect our user community by discouraging fraudulent users from signing up and posting classified ads without having at least a very basic level of established membership in our forums.

    Obviously all users should still exercise due diligence when making use of our classifieds forums, but we hope that this restriction will help to decrease the number of blatantly fraudulent ads that we have been seeing in recent weeks.

    Please be sure to review our Classified Forum Policy for more information.

At first I thought the "i" meant internet, I think it is more for branding their products.

I think it refers to I as 'myself'. Its a marketing trick to make people feel comfortable with the names of apple their devices.

I think it sound cool: iphone, ipad, ipod, imac. Its simple and clean, instead of 'device Z454A super' or something like that.

Years later and the i still only means one thing: absolutely nothing. It's a marketing ploy that doesn't have any depth. It doesn't mean internet, I, or myself. Apple started that back in the day with the iBook, different from the PowerBook as it was a more standard consumer friendly device in terms of price. Then they came out with the iPod, iPhone, iPad, etc. It's just something they have put on their more consumer friendly products and migrated over to other devices. It's nothing more than a marketing term.
