QUOTE(young_mane @ May 28 2008, 02:09 AM) I am actually very noob all things concerning Iphone, so I would like to ask some questions here. Hopefully sifus are able to help me. a) May I know the Ipod music player has any issues with those mixtape tracks, like those mp3 for DJ mixsets? Pardon me because I am using V3i's itunes and it keeps on rejecting such mp3s. b) So far is it quite hard to find public hotspots to use the WiFi? Because I do understand Iphone is running on different WiFi security setting requirement as compared to other PDA/Smartphones.....TQ very much in advance for your assistance. it is because of the limited facilities in malaysia. compare to UK, where o2 includes unlimited data transfer, you will get connected easily/automatically to the wifi AP because o2 themselves have subscribed those wifi provider for their iphone users. so basically the iphone wifi connectivity is pretty covered esp. in town, where your iphone can do the wifi-hopping, from one AP to another, when there is no wifi point, gprs can be used.

QUOTE(crazyconsumer @ May 9 2008, 09:19 AM) Whatever, IPHONE has the biggest disadvantage .... it needs tweaking. Out of the box, it sucks. Can't accept that, close the tread. agree with ya, but seems i dont have problem to unlock, guess it doesnt matter to me i feel iphone was coolest ever pda/phone around. even its lack of 3g, i bet still not many of us using it for the time being, iphone still great with availability to customise, 3rd party add-on softwares support & super bright touch panel screen

I feel iphones are great... Just they don't have enough Symbian apps... Which i have in my nokia e65.. which enable me to run some windows programs.. The downside of iphone : It lacks function, and you can't forward a message!

Guys, I have tried ipod touch and seriously I am blown away by the Safari browser...goodness it was so darn easy to use.
Since ipod touch is iphone minus the phone functions, hopefully its phone brother will perform similarly well too....seriously I am looking forward to get my hand on an iphone soon.
Since I am an avid DNB mixtape listener, hopefully the itunes in the iphone can support them. Sum fellas told me that any itunes cant support mp3 tracks that are more than 30 minutes long and one mixtape mp3 track is like 1 to 1 and a half hours long.
It is also finger print magnet but I believe it will be easily solved with the supplied wiping cloth....

Ipod touch and iphone safari perfo is the same,but ipod touch is like 2% faster 4 me.. finger print magnet is quite big problem for me,cz i dont carry the wiping cloth with me all the time. but plan to buy anti-glare screen protector to solve this problem.

Let me know if I'm wrong. easy. loads of practice. you will realise that if you exceed one page, the status bar will take significantly longer to complete. anyway, you can already afford an iphone, dont tell me that extra 5cents (or 1cents), also you wanna save?

It can capture video using a 3rd Party Application called Cycorder. Granted ..the iPhone has shortcomings but a lot of them have been overcome.
