I’ve been using windows mobile since the pocket pc 2002 days. I must say a lot of the powerful windows devices out there now are rather sluggish even if cooked roms are flashed. I don’t hate the windows mobile os it has rather good features, but I decided to finally get an apple iPhone and yes, it does cut back on features and keep things simple such as not having multi tasking like windows mobile. To be honest, I actually prefer the smooth interface of the iPhone and I am over the slow performance of windows mobile. I guess it depends on what you want to use the phone for. If your a business man or woman, something like the touch pro 2 would probably suit you, but as for me I just like the fact that the iPhone can do all the basic stuff I need plus be a really cool multi media device, something that windows mobile lacks on many devices (sometimes not windows fault, but device manufacturers not including proper drivers to utilise the devices eg.. see http://www.htcclassaction.org, although outdated, newer devices still have multimedia issues.)

Guys. You have new hardware for now. Stop whining and make your own software. If you still aren’t happy then stop whining and wait until another incremental upgrade with new hardware comes, then make your own hardware. Else gtfo and get a different phone and stop criticizing.

unlikely blackberry, iPhone doesn’t have multi apps running in the same time…why apple don’t see this? Is it because they just thought everybody will love it and no question about it?? Come on Apple, don’t be so damn stupid!

For my work I am in the car a lot. I have been holding out on getting an Iphone because it did not support the 15 year old technology of voice dial. So I watched the video on the new GS and it says you can use the voice dial with a headset. GREAT! I stand in line for an hour or so and get the phone. After pairing with my bluetooth headset I find that I cant voice dial. I call Apple and discover that it only works with the wired headphones that come with the GS. Who the hell uses wired headphones. Technically it is illegal to wear them while driving in California. BIG DISAPPOINTMENT. Back to Verizon and the Storm .

I was so excited about upgrading my 3g but after seeing how exactly alike they are I’m just gonna stick to my lovely 3g 3.0 it does the same thing except for video recording… What I really was hoping for is flash at least on the new phone but they don’t even have that.. Seems like the g1 is ahead of the iPhone..my cousin n I fight over whose phone is better in my book his is a winner but I won’t tell him lol…

You hit the nails on the head!!!

Also, no flash on the camera, no forward facing cam, no flash support.

We iPhone users were hoping for something completely different for this 3G S. Now, there is no way to tell if someone has gone out and plucked down the money for the NEW phone due to them looking exacltly like to old ones. WTF Apple??? We all wanted something new and different in the hardware that would have made all 3G users envious just to SEE the new phone (had it looked ANY different).

Oh well - maybe next year!

I have a 3G and the novelty has worn thin. I'm selling it on ebay and going back to Virgin Mobile. Yes, I will have a regular, boring phone but I won't feel like I am being cheated when I pay the bill. Virgin offers unlimited calling and 1000 messages (including MMS) for 55.00 a month with no contract and I will have a phone that if dropped or lossed can be replaced at Wal-Mart for 29.00.

The iPhone hype is over. The release of the 3Gs proves it. The iPhone lacks features that basic phones had had for years and then they act like they created something new when they sorta give it to you (MMS late summer 2009???) WTF is that about.

Well am I dissapointed in the new iPhone? Will I be buying one? Well no I am not dissapointed in the new iPhone I think its cool that Apple are keeping the old iPhone 3g I will be getting the iphone on friday when it comes out but if the iPhone 3gs is to exspenive well I am just going to get the iphone 3g.I will be buying it on Pay as You Go. Cannot afford a bill phone.

Also I am really interested in the new macbook pros but it seams kinda pointless that the macbooks that just came out are gone. For the people who have bought them if they have a problem with them will they be able to get them fixed? or are they fucked? I think its about time apple added an SD card slot in though and I do think I will be getting a macbook pro for my bday just the 13 inch
