I read an article on yahoo yesterday that listed the reasons why the iPhone isnt all its cracked up to be. looks cool, but doesnt have the best features....hmmm kinda reminds me of the iPod.

QUOTE (JRockTTU @ Jun 27 2007, 11:32 AM)  Also, I have fat fingers, so you're trying to tell me I'm going to type out full emails on a tiny on-screen keyboard? I have the cingular 8525, and I like the sliding keyboard because I can type with both thumbs. The iPhone's design makes it seem as though you have to type everything out with one finger. http://www.apple.com/iphone/usingiphone/keyboard_large.html -------------------- Don't sweat the petty, pet the sweaty.

QUOTE (impala454 @ Jun 27 2007, 12:33 PM) I don't think you see what I'm saying. If I take my iPhone out of my pocket and set it flat on a table, how does it know which way the screen should face? I know what you are saying. From what I've read, the default facing will be vertical until the accelerometer senses a change. This makes sense, as when you set something down on the table, you do it so that it faces you. You don't usually use a phone as it sits on a table unless you're using the speakerphone to talk to someone (in my experience). Movies and TV shows will always be shown in horizontal mode (as far as YouTube goes, I haven't found anything). -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

QUOTE (cmac @ Jun 27 2007, 12:44 PM) Yeah, I'm not real confident in their ability to produce a good phone considering this link broke my browser (Firefox) then when I restored the session it told me that my Quicktime software is missing a component to show the video, and the component is not available on the Quicktime server. -------------------- LANCE IS PRO-CENSORSHIP!

Regardless, I wouldn't be surprised if you could manually change that setting... --------------------  |

My current phone:
 I got this in 2002 and it still keeps on ticking (best receptions, coverage, etc... of any phone I've had with no problems whatsoever). I don't understand why everyone wants to pack so much shit into a mobile device. On an iPhone I would use: voice, text msg, and music. I couldn't imagine using any of the extras to justify the cost. Maybe if I lived in NYC and had a long commute I would use the video/web browsing features, idk. *shrug* -------------------- |

I'm so fucking sick of hearing about this goddamn phone. IT'S A PHONE. NOT EVEN A CUTTING-EDGE ONE.
I pray to god this ends up being the next RAZR and people start to hate them. -------------------- WAIT. I'm not finished.
