It's all swings and roundabouts. I see the "walled garden" as a necessity to provide security and coherence....and the "non walled garden" of android as a mess of app stores, user interfaces and forks. Yet I'm sure most android users see it the opposite way, "inflexibility" vs. "choice".

Not really as any file system they'd present over bluetooth would be a subfolder on the phone and you'd never have access to any of the system folders. In addition, iOS sandboxes each and every application so that it can only write to it's own documents folder, there's no concept of system wide...

It's an option, you can turn it off in the passcode lock settings.

The simple answer is that it only supports limited bluetooth profiles, things like headset etc. The slightly longer answer is that it'll only find devices which support "headset" profile. The even longer answer is covered by NDA's that take months to get through.

Notifications should have the option to just display badge counts, for example with emails if you disable previews you still see who the sender is, so it still "leaks" information. However, if you had the option to show badge counts on the lock screen it could just show "4 new mails" etc.

Re: iPhone Event - 4/10/2011 - Read post #1 before asking questions About what? Steve Jobs is seriously ill, his stepping down has nothing to do with what the iPhone 4S is or isn't. I'm really not sure what people expected, I don't know what they could have added to it to make people go...

Re: iPhone Event - 4/10/2011 - Read post #1 before asking questions It's all bizarre. Apple were once the choice for "Think Different". Android users come in 2 flavours: Mint Choc Chip(-on-shoulder), geeks who buy "android" because they want to "think different" and almost invariably...

Re: iPhone Event - 4/10/2011 - Read post #1 before asking questions Basically the A5 processor is dual core version of the A4 processor, give or take the CPU is the same, just with 2 cores. Think of it like having 2 A4 processors inside, simplistically you can say that you have up to 2 times...

Re: iPhone Event - 4/10/2011 - Read post #1 before asking questions 1.) You ask it to do things with your phone and it does them.* 2.) It also behaves like wolfram alpha. (* may randomly call contacts/delete calendars**) (** I'll reserve judgment on that until I actually get to play with...

Re: iPhone Event - 4/10/2011 - Read post #1 before asking questions I'm still baffled by Cards, quite possibly the strangest product introduction I think I've ever seen.

Re: iPhone Event - 4/10/2011 - Read post #1 before asking questions SIM free: 8GB 3GS - £319 8GB 4 - £429 16GB 4S - £499

Re: iPhone Event - 4/10/2011 - Read post #1 before asking questions If Siri works, then it's a pretty neat. I need to see the video stream now.

Re: iPhone Event - 4/10/2011 - Read post #1 before asking questions Me: "What time is it?" Phone: "Calling xxxx" It was ok when it worked, but when it didn't you were always left scrambling for the "end call" button.

Re: iPhone Event - 4/10/2011 - Read post #1 before asking questions You'll miss his "iTea" announcement, where you use the app to buy and then get a hot cup of tea delivered to your doorstep. (if you're in the US, it'll even track it for you)

Re: iPhone Event - 4/10/2011 - Read post #1 before asking questions They could have just stuck a video of Forstall demoing iOS5 all those months back!

Re: iPhone Event - 4/10/2011 - Read post #1 before asking questions Must have been the #1 requested feature, it can be the only explanation - why else would you develop it, let alone open a "keynote" with it.
