Updated iPhone specs

[surur]

Your singular point is the intent of Apple manipulating a Press Release. Why would they bother correcting it when Palm and so many other mfrs never bother correcting [unless they find themselves in legal hot water, that is]?

When comparing your device against competitors, you better be factually right. Are you saying they could have actually left it there uncorrected, without getting a friendly letter from Nokia?

My point in fact is not that they corrected the list, but what they decided to include in the feature comparison to start with, ie. only features in which they would win.

Not even close. Try again?

Again, your list differs with Apple's PR how exactly?

Here's that table, updated with a dash of honesty.

No BT stereo and no MP3 ringtones? Is that really true?

By actually including Apple's PR, in which the IPhone wins, and adding in the areas where they lose. Automatic balance.

It's anti-Apple PR. Obviously that's the complete opposite

As far as we know, at this time.

The iPhone is going to sell, and going to sell big when it is released. But what are consumers going to do when they realize they can do all of this on a phone that costs hundreds less, on a cellular network that is cheaper to boot?

what consumers want are devices that don't weigh as much as bricks or look as though they're from the 1990's.....they want sleek, pocketable, and modern. let the market validate what i have been saying for some time now.

A few here seem to be deluded into believing they are actually shaping the market with their posts.

While I think Safari will go a long way in bringing "full blown internet" to a mobile device and that people want such a feature, personally I think it's an inefficient way for information retrieval.

This reminds me. Isn't there a beta Windows Safari available? Anyone try it yet?

BT 2.0 is supported, so it seems reasonable that BT audio will be, if not at launch. IS there any hardware reason why this couldn't be added?

no, rather suggesting that there are alternatives to Treos, and sure enough, many around here have found that to be true.

you can turn that statement into whatever you wish as well....seems that you have fun doing so.

I'm using the beta OS X version. I like it because it spell checks as you type (like now!) , which Safari 2 didn't.

Its all software, but then so is flash and Java.

OT

I've been using it here and there. Overall it's nice. I like the font and the way it "looks". Then I found I could make Firefox do some of that stuff (see Fission plugin). Are there adblockers for Safari and plugins? No built in spell-check is a deal killer for me as of now.

Actually, what consumers want is simple: choice

Whether that is in networks or device types, using something that fits your needs and likes is what matters. Aesthetics is but one aspect in that choice and not necessarily the priority for all.

But be nonest, you know flash and java are totally different issues.

And still using the same subjective rationalization you complain about.

But Jobs said the iPhone was a Blackberry too. Right, surur? :crazy:

Are they? A2DP does not come free with the bluetooth chip - the code still needs to be written.

Nooo... he actually showed a Treo keyboard in the keynote. I guess he meant it was a Treo. Sorry for the mistake. :crazy:
