You should know one way or another in 5 weeks time if you can wait that long. My cousin gave up waiting yesterday and bought one.

Re: iPhone Software 3.0 Discussion (New hardware Expected 9/6/2009)

Lol i'm think about fogetting on the wait and just upgrading just now.

And they have obv made the hardware, I can't believe nothing has been leaked they must be a tight unit who developed the hardware.

Re: iPhone Software 3.0 Discussion (New hardware Expected 9/6/2009)

Nobody knows.

I know somebody who knows.... Although even after the 3G was announced (and he came back over here for a holiday), he wasn't allowed to let anybody photograph or touch it though.

No. He'd be personally beaton to death by Steve Jobs if he were to much as breathe a word about anything.

Only thing I know is that he's been in china for the past couple of months.

Re: iPhone Software 3.0 Discussion (New hardware Expected 9/6/2009)

lol, I meant us fanboys don't know anything.

The only people that actually know will never say anything. I'm fairly sure there will be a new iPhone. What it will look like, will or won't have is pure guess work. But I shall be waiting.

Snoop, does your mate like to drink?

Patience is a virtue. We should know in a month and then be able to get one in 2 months. Can't bl00dy wait!

Those of you running 3.0b5, do you have a developer account or are you winging it from another source via a restore?

Be interested to find out, getting itchy feet and thinking about trying to bodge it, PM if need be.

Thanks!

Re: iPhone Software 3.0 Discussion (New hardware Expected 9/6/2009)

surely you can ask your mate when the planned date of release is. i understand he cant say what its guna have.

 

[sneeks]

Re: iPhone Software 3.0 Discussion (New hardware Expected 9/6/2009)

They have not acknowledged it exists so his mate cannot tell him anything.

Re: iPhone Software 3.0 Discussion (New hardware Expected 9/6/2009)

thats true

Re: iPhone Software 3.0 Discussion (New hardware Expected 9/6/2009)

12 month?

Thought it was 18 month minimum, business users increasing to 24months.

If there was a new one do you reckon it would be a lot more £ monthly than the current one ?

I can get one free on a 12 months contract for £41 a month.

Guys, really sorry if it's been covered before but I'm searching and not getting very far...

Is there a decent, idiot's, guide to jailbreaking the 3G? From scratch, etc, etc...

Good good, out of interest did you get the pink connect to iTunes display?

They've cocked up the messages input box, when it's fully extended now it types and the bottom of the text is cut off, you can scroll it back but then when you go to a new line it gets cut off again.

Re: iPhone Software 3.0 Discussion (New hardware Expected 9/6/2009)

I got the pink screen when the update started.

Re: iPhone Software 3.0 Discussion (New hardware Expected 9/6/2009)

3.0b5 is much better

 

[sneeks]

Re: iPhone Software 3.0 Discussion (New hardware Expected 9/6/2009)

3.0b4 was also very good, far snappier than the previous 3.0 releases. 3.0b5 is another step forward. Apple are now stipulating that all new apps submitted to them must be compatible with 3.0 so it does look like the public release will be soon.

MacRumors are also reporting that the new iPhone will have a built-in magnetometer to provide a digital compass. http://www.macrumors.com/

Re: iPhone Software 3.0 Discussion (New hardware Expected 9/6/2009)

I got a Blackberry Curve this week, and tbh I am a little disappointed with it. I don't really know what I was expecting. Just browsing the web etc doesn't seem to be as gd as the iPhone. So thinking about sending it back and looking at the iPhone. The only thing is I have got a £20 a month tarrif all in on the BB which I think is very good, whereas if I go to the iPhone it is going to be £45 a month. Is it really worth the extra?

Think if I did swap I would need to wait to see what is coming out as well. If anyone could confirm it was software only it would help, as obviously no point really waiting, but if there is an actual new phone, then surely it makes sense as it'll be out out date in a month?!

Decisions, decisions. Is the iPhone that much better than a BB?

Chinese Forum Poster Describes Next Generation iPhone Details

We've been keeping an eye on some reports coming out of Chinese forum Weiphone over the past couple of weeks, and it appears the reports are starting to spread. In early May, a forum poster from the Chinese site posted specs and a screenshot from what is claimed to be the next generation iPhone.

The image above was uploaded and seems to depict a new iPhone model number "MB717LL" with 32GB of Storage. If the original poster's claims are to be believed, the new iPhone will contain the following features:

- 600MHz CPU Speed (up from 400MHz)
- 256MB RAM (up from 128MB)
- Digital Compass and FM
- 3.2 megapixel camera with auto focus
- 32GB size
- No major changes in battery, screen and external casing.

As far as we can tell, the original poster has no track record for accurate information, though the Chinese web/forums have been a common source of early photos of recent Apple releases including the unibody MacBook and MacBook Pro casings.

At this point, we're posting it for interest alone, though the information seems believable. It's certainly expected for the next iPhone to contain a digital compass and better camera. Increases in processor speed and RAM are also feasible.

It's not so many years ago that those specs were good for a powerful PC

Re: iPhone Software 3.0 Discussion (New hardware Expected 9/6/2009)

I really want to see a better battery, more than anything (well, RAM I suppose)

Re: iPhone Software 3.0 Discussion (New hardware Expected 9/6/2009)

I'm using 300mb of my 16gb. lol

I thought the poor battery life would be an issue for me, but so far it's been fine. Unless I spend all day surfing. It lasts a couple of days making calls with a BT headset attached. Better battery life would be nice though.

I can live without the other additions, though will be looking forward to getting cut and paste. lol

I don't very often use it, either. When I do, it works well and looks good.
