not nice...very easy to slip...wah cheap? thts almost my salary.unless i earn USD salary.

proximity sensor
light sensor
accellerometer
for wat? add more price?
*
proximity sensor - to save battery, avoid ur face doing their own jobs on the touchscreen

light sensor - this is common, most of new phones nowadays got tat, k800i, n73, w810i etc etc

accelerometer - tat is for the multitouch technology.. on screen control, without the use of stylus..

the tech are the price u pay for...

Nope, accelerometer is not for multitouch. Currently, it is mainly used to detect orientation of phone whether it is potrait or landscape mode. It is possible they incorporate other uses for it, like manipulating some UI based on (non-touch) gestures .. sorta like Wiimote?

right.. thanks for that explanation..

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

WiMAX isn't 4G. WiMAX is more of a larger scale WiFi.

ya it isnt 4G exactly.. but just that 4G could utilise WiMAX

Cool Phone!

It's good for them to release later. Judging by Apple's track record of secrecy, I don't think Steve Job spilled all the beans of the capabilities of the Iphone. Besides, I still think its still on the development table as far as the software issues is concern. I did not see Steve demo ICal or IChat capabilites on the Iphone.

Besides, they need a year in 2008 to work out with the telco provider in Asia should the want to partner with one...

I would buy it when it hits Asia. By then it won't be 1st gen phone anymore...
*
i dont think they will partner will asia specifically said malaysia telco.. just sell them as generic..

Ehm guys... Need to know wether this iphone has video recording abilities. Not one article mention about video recording right?

Also, it looks like it does not have flash? Just realized it.
*
i think there shud be video recording capability.. but nothing to shout about the quality of recorded video. but the video playback quality shud be good, the ipod video capability..

doesnt hv a flash? the camera part isnt their main focus... a lot of phones doesnt hv a flash light too..

their main target are, ipod users (those craving for wide screen ipod video), apple and mac lovers... their communication technology (wifi, gms based etc) might be old compare to japan and korea, but the user interface, operation system, and ease of use do shows/prove something new, revolutionary

tat LG against iPhone? it seems very unlikely that LG will win... it doesnt seems very same to me..

everything is a copy of another.. or do other phone hv to make the screen in triangle shape so tat it doesnt look the same as other.. how about those slim version against moto razr...

just another tactic for LG to tumpang popularity at the moment maybe..

What do you mean hutang ?

if with contract, and somehow u screw up the contract stuff, didnt pay, missed, owe or pay late for the monthly rental fees during ur contract period, then you will get bad credit rating from the telco to ur bank and hence your future credit check is screwed up as well.. unless u properly settle down the issue with the telco and bank..

i dont know what takes so long for this iphone to be released ? i would say that some other manufacturers could create something better sooner
*
there is something better out there already at this time.. nokia and LG 5mp cameraphone, SE walkman phone or nokia Music Edition, LG Choc and Samsung touch sensitive sensors keypad, smartphone with symbian 3rd edition or WM 5 and etc etc.

not to mention those Japan telephony technology, like bravia technology, mobileTV etc etc..

but i would say, all of these totally different league with iPhone, with its aqua & cocoa Mac OS, the multitouch, the ipod features, album art flow, etc etc.
