New iPhone launch today

[Ex-User (19928)]

I'd want to use it all the time with an unlimited data plan.... I have my doubts they'll keep that for the 3G version though..... Hopefully I'm wrong though as I do want one.

Tired of the slow processors HTC use, most HP iPaqs don't have a phone feature, and Windows mobile browsing is far from ideal on some websites.

Don't need GPS either anymore, and want an iPod, so the iphone ticks all the boxes.

 

[sneeks]

I'd like for GPS to be included or for the bluetooth connection options to be expanded so that I can use a external GPS receiver. This would prove easier on the battery. If internal I hope it's at least SiRF III chipset and not the crap that was builtin to the N95.

 

[Justin]

Bluetooth, 3G, MMS, Mp3 Ringtone etc are all things i'd like..

(i know about iRinger etc)

 

[sneeks]

Mac users can easily make custom mp3 ringtones using included as standard Mac software so that's never been a problem for me.

 

[Justin]

Yeah i know, but its just the little things on a normal phone that i miss.. Video camera is another.

 

[sneeks]

The video on all the phones I owned was piss poor so I've never missed it but I suppose it is a handy thing to have. The more they decide to include the better.

[Tom]

F*ck me this is boring!

Get on with it!!

 

[Justin]

Another good thing would be for the phone to work with the likes of in car stereos.. Mine works occasionally, but sometimes not!?

 

[Tom]

Mine works great, alpine FTW.

 

[Justin]

Its alpine i have.. IDA X001?

Maybe i didnt connect it right or something.. works fine with my itouch

 

[sneeks]

I have the x001 and the iPhone works ith it.

 

[Justin]

Do you need to put it into ipod mode?!

 

[sneeks]

Some of those games have great graphics for on a phone.

 

[Tom]

Yeah dont use USB its not so good.

 

[sneeks]

Awesome medical apps!!!!! Only joking. I wish they'd hurry up and get to the good stuff.

 

[sneeks]

July for the new firmware

 

[Tom]

Hardware is gonna get a preview i reckon, no new phone today.

 

[Tom]

Woot mobileme!

Better be f**king free to .mac users or im going loco.

f**king sweet!

 

[sneeks]

mobileme looks excellent. Looking forward to that.

New 3G in July then alongside 2.0?

 

[Tom]

Maybe.

Or at the end of september?

I think we might get 1.1.5 today you know..

 

[sn00p]

I've been told that there will be no 3G iPhone this year...we will see.

 

[sneeks]

If that long they really need to address the stock shortage problem. 5 months without selling any iPhone's is not realistic.

 

[Tom]

16gb/32gb

 

[sneeks]

$99 p/year for mobileme and 20gb online storage

Automatic upgrade for .mac users

 

[Tom]

Mint.

 

[Tom]

Here we go...........

Oooh it might be cheaper?

f**k, i smell contracts.

 

[sn00p]

On the edge of your seat sneeks?!

 

[Moby]

Making the iPhone affordable

"Black back! "Thinner at the edges. Full plastic back, it's really nice."

"Today we're introducing the iPhone 3G."

 

[sneeks]

I've been told that there will be no 3G iPhone this year...we will see.

They were wrong.

 

[sn00p]

I shall go slap said source. Usually pretty reliable regarding apple announcements.

 

[sneeks]

On the edge of your seat sneeks?!

Erect is the word

 

[Tom]

Headphone socket on the side?

NEIN Steve!

 

[sn00p]

They were wrong.

They're normally spot on. Will hit hard.

Ironically I know somebody in the ipod special applications group, but you'd have more luck getting blood from a stone than information from them!

 

[sneeks]

Headphone socket on the side?

NEIN Steve!

No I think that photo is the top corner viewed from above.

GPS built in
