actually to how os x in iphone is not compatible or watever, forget about it first..

at least, by now we can see a new perspective in phony technology, a diff way we can utilize phones, u shud really watch the keynote to see how it will diff to current phone technology, smartphone etc etc...

its a great leap from apple to the phone industry/tech

There was speculation before the iPhone came out that it would be called iMobile due to the publicised Cisco iPhone product release.

iMobile sounds better for me. iPhone sounds like our house telephone.. blush.gif

The speakers are located at the bottom, side by side with the dock connector. The iPhone comes with an Apple bluetooth headset if I am not mistaken. Looks a lot like a Sony one.

I don't think so. Sure comes with wired-headset. Bluetooth headset sure need money 1.. brows.gif

correct me. the iphone will be selling with 2 years contract, then i guess the price without the contract will be more than the price they stated, right?

YA. sure expensive. But i'm not so sure apple will like to sell iphone without contract. Just thought about 3rd party app, apple do not want 3rd party app in "their" iphone hmm.gif

the link doesnt work. or is it due to limited bandwith? but anyway, whats flight mode?
*
The link fine. Just now i try click again, it's works.

Hmm.. flight mode is like switch off the network functions (calling/emails/sms..) and you can use your phone as normal mp3/mp4 player, AKA turn into IPOD biggrin.gif

Hmm just read that it does indeed have a sim tray.

Anyway, theres a huge 3G gg-fied recently in US. A lot of 3G stuff are affected by it, and if President Bush choose to embargo one company's 3G technology the whole 3G market in the US could be crippled. iPhone is not affected tho, they can still implement the 3G later as the company they are working with holds the rightful patent.

If most of the market is crippled, i doubt the carriers will work on 3G coverage in the near future. That's why i think iPhone will skip the 3G. But there may be 3G versions for export, although i dont think its been in apple's history to have such significant spec difference for different regions.

It should have sim tray. How on earth if it doesn't has one? then, how to make call? blink.gif

hype is over?

anyway, some reading.

Added on June 30, 2007, 5:05 pm

they can make the phone as generic and sell as generic set rather than tie to any telco. unlock set at higher price.

but by dealing with telco, the phone will be cheaper as the telco will partly subsidized the phone, making the phone more affordable to the customer with various plan. and hence sim lock the phone is just a way to secure the phone from partly destroying the telco and attract more customer to the telco.
*
ya i know that too. But Apple? I doubt it will sell unlocked set, just like mac osx in generic pc. rolleyes.gif

For all the phrases you bolded, it won't surprise me laugh.gif In fact, i don't expect the phone to be so-called "jesus" phone. tongue.gif since the phone don't even support java application. shakehead.gif doh.gif

Oh bummer!!! For such a nice product to be let down by this apparent flaw is really dissapointing. Batteries should not be soldered, period. What were the designers thinking. Even the cheapest phone you can find the batteries are replaceable. A definite turn-off for me.
