Here is another scenario of when this would be helpful: I will be traveling out of the country. I want to leave my phone off but still take pictures and have them geo tagged.

There seems to be no way to do that.

thanks marc.. I was trying to find another solution than jailbreaking ATT, but have not had any luck.

problem of GPS unavailability when GSM/3G is disabled remains unresolved.

are you talking about an jaibroken iPhone? Because there is no option to turn off EDGE on the standard AT&T iPhone. – marc, on September 05, 2008 05:33

where I have been on the map and where I am checked in at now would be a good start.

A comment on the question "Facebook app would be amazing!" in Brightkite:

Def want a customizable Tab outside of just a Boxes widget thingy. In mine, I would want a giant google map with all the places I've checked into! And perhaps a sidebar with the list of my recent checkins and posts.

Also, the newsfeed item should contain a link to the brightkite page for that location so that friends sitting next to me checking out my profile can check in within two clicks (or easily sign up!)

Naturally, pictures taken at a location should also show up in the long newsfeed setting. – Timothy Moenk, on September 03, 2008 03:29

I'd like it to have links to the native iPhone app. ;)

A Facebook app is still in the works and we are curious to hear some feedback from our users. What kind of features would you like to see in the app?

Summary: Do you still need a 2, 3, or 4 at a time subscription?

With a 3 person profile for my family it made sense for a 3 at a time subscription. Without profiles I expect to go to no more than a 2 at a time program, which means less convenience for me and less revenue for Netflix.

If enough subscribers reevaluate their subscriptions to a lower number based on the announced profile removal and let Netflix know that's the reason, perhaps their business logic will change.

I, too, would mourn the loss of profiles. It means that I would lose the 1 of 3 netflix that my husband has graciously allotted me. It means that I would never see movies of my preference. I wouldn't get my own netflix account. And by losing my profile, you'd actually have to work harder b/c my husband watches a much greater number of movies than I do.

I don't understand how it's in the customer's best interest to remove a feature that's obviously very useful because it's "cumbersome" without a better feature in its place. Eliminating profiles is like destroying the work of your customers without giving them the ability to save that work. Netflix stores a ton of information about each of its customers, from reviews to ratings, so why are they so quick to delete some of it?

Netflix, you need a better solution than "we've decided to terminate the profiles feature." That's just not good customer service.
