Yes - I'm getting bored...

No - if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
- What we need is Apple to stop being Iphone Nazi's. With the way Apple is and there ultimate goal of stopping jailbreaking hince the new new 3GS phones that have tethered jailbreaks. I don't think 4.0 will be what us jailbreakers want. Apple for some reason doesn't want themes or themeing on their phone or flat out customizing. Or they would have made an update along time ago opening the phone up without jailbreaking. They would remove their very strict app store rules. Or just damn let us get Adobe. I just think 4.0 will be a newer looking IPhone with more RAM and a bigger CPU. And a couple odds and ends like Safari download or SMS tones like we can with Ringtones. I'm afraid people that are expecting a 4.0 Iphone thats fully customizable are gonna be really dissappointed. It might be a phone thats alot more secure and alot harder to hack and jailbreak.

AND WHAT IS THE POINT OF THAT COMPASS...I AM SURE THE LOONS ACTUALLY THINK ITS SOMETHING GRAND12-01-2009 11:08 AMLike 0 - Yeh, the compass was one of those things they advertised when the 3GS came out. I bet 99 out of 100 people will never use it other than seeing what it looks like.12-02-2009 12:04 PMLike 0
- It's not about the compass app. I love the compass for maps because I can easily find where I need to go12-02-2009 12:54 PMLike 0

- Well said sir. Exactly what I was thinking. Apple has the phone out as it wants it, not the customers

- I think it will stay pretty much the same as 3.0. If Apple decides to go multitasking, that's where we'll see the biggest UI change. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Software-wise, there isn't much to do. I like the widgets on Android and that would be nice to have, but again, that's in the realm of multitasking.12-06-2009 11:45 AMLike 0
- i don't see why it's funny i guess?
the compass integrates with the maps application. try it, go into maps and tap the GPS icon twice, it will show you exactly which direction your heading and rotate the map accordingly.
maybe having an icon for the actual compass is pretty pointless, but the integration into maps is a very nice feature.12-06-2009 09:07 PMLike 0 - What we need is Apple to stop being Iphone Nazi's.

- While you make a good point, that is just never going to happen. I have been a mac user and an apple fan for years and one thing you have to deal with when you are an apple customer is that they really do not care what you want to do with the device. Apple operates on a different plain then almost any other company, their idea of market research is that Job's thinks that it's cool. As long as you know and accept that apple is always going to be apple you should never have an issue with them. As far as the JB community goes you are just not at all what apple cares about. For them it is better to exclude you and service the more mainstream customer base.01-10-2010 10:17 PMLike 0
