A pulsating dot is moving across the Google map as a car drives down Lombard street. 11:38 am Data from cell towers, WiFi networks, and now -- GPS. 11:38 am GPS support now integrated into the iPhone. 11:38 am 3G has great battery life on iPhone. 300 hours of standby, 2G talk-time now has 10 hours (as opposed to 5), 5 hours of 3G talk-time (most phones only have 3 hour 3G talk time), 5 to 6 hours of high-speed browsing, 7 hours of video, 24 hours of audio. 11:37 am Now demoing an email download. The email attachment took 5 seconds to download on 3G and 18 seconds on EDGE. 3 seconds on WiFi. 11:36 am 2.8X faster. Approaching WiFi speeds (WiFi scored 17 seconds). When compared to other 3G phones (Nokia N95 and Treo 750), the iPhone is 36% faster -- and better looking. 11:35 am How does the iPhone 3G tackle the challenges? 3G = faster data downloads, perfect for Safari and Mail. Comparing download speeds between 3G and EDGE. 3G finished in 21 seconds. EDGE finished in 59 seconds. 11:33 am Apple has learned so much with the first iPhone. They have taken everything they've learned and more and created the iPhone 3G. Even thinner, black plastic back, solid metal buttons, same gorgeous display, camera, flush headphone jack, and dramatically improved audio. 11:32 am Introducing the iPhone 3G.

Oh, come on! When was the last time you had a memory card fail you didn't crush stupidly. I buy the cheapest ones on the planet (A-card, $59 for 16GB on buy.com) and they work flawlessly! Unreliable?.....and you have a iPhone with hotglued cables in it?! > Oh, come on! When was the last time you had a memory card fail you didn't > crush stupidly.

Yes, but it only has a 4GB microSD in it, a MotoROKR Z6m. It's just a bluetooth modem with an MP3 player in it...(c; I use an array of memory cards for the N800 Linux tablet. I have some old 8GB cards full of music and ebooks and the 16GB external card is for Divx movies off alt.binaries.movies.divx. (I'm enjoying the flood of old Westerns that someone posted at the moment.) I don't change out the internal 16GB card. It's for storage of Maemo Mapper's mosaic panels from Google, Virtual Earth, Runway Finder (aeronautical charts), etc.; a couple hundred Palm OS apps that run under Garnet Virtual Machine, the new Palm OS people; 256MB of extra virtual memory expanding the internal fixed memory; lots of data and library files the installed software uses.....sorta like C:\Programs on a WinXP box....and a few movies I like to keep on the tablet as there's lots of space left unused. I can't imagine being stuck with ANY device I wouldn't have removeable storage of some kind available. I need to have unlimited storage that swappable storage provides. Now, the smartassed Linux hackers have a little app that puts our USB port into OTG and HOST mode, as well as the defaulted Peripheral mode it uses to restore the OS. Memory just went way up as I can plug in one of my massive 500/750GB or 1TB external USB hard drives! I can just move the hard drive from the PC to the tablet and let the tablet copy stuff off the hard drive straight onto its memory cards or the other way, without using Bluetooth FTP or over the wifi, which is much slower. And, doing that doesn't upset whatever the XP box is downloading by having to cope with copying onto the memory cards plugged into the PC via a USB adapter. The tablet, of course, won't POWER the external hard drives, so you have to have them plugged into an AC adapter or a car cord if you want to carry it with you....(c; David Moyer <meetme@world.com> wrote in news:meetme-5790EE.15120309062008 @news.qwest.net: > i'm not saying the cards are, but the "people" trying to manage those > cards are. too much room for error so better to go the full mile and > have the iphone simply sync all data, movies, songs, etc and recharge it > with one simple cable. If you can't handle the files on a card, how do you handle the files on a hard drive?? There's PLENTY of room for error on the hard drive! The N800's File Manager was specifically designed with users in mind. It gives them no access, at all, of anything Linux, only their personal files and folders. The File Manager can't change or delete any system files, library files, anything that might destroy the tablet, or the memory it uses, even on the cards. For that, there's EMELFM2, a dual pane Linux file handler ported to the Maemo tablets and every Linux/Unix system. http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/emelfm2/ With it, you can just blow it all to hell!.....(c; But that's not death to a tablet. It just means you have to reinstall the OS via USB from your WinXP box and the handy tablet burner and reinstall everything as punishment for screwing up. We do that every once in a while, anyway, just to clean off the table and start over anew!....(c; Xterm is our favorite video game....If you lose, you lose BIGTIME! > If you can't handle the files on a card, how do you handle the files on a > hard drive??

There's nothing like total control of the customer, especially if you can convince them of how much better off they are. Jobs must have finally gotten around to reading ideas from the automotive industry of the 50s. I wonder if he'll read where that led or if he'll just act shocked when it goes south? My guess is that he'll do what his self-destructive streak always leads him to do and just talk about how no one other than himself and a few others really understand the product. This is all funny as hell to see as the Applevolk are the first to spew hatred at MS for a far lower level of control over the customer. > There's nothing like total control of the customer, especially if > you [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > to spew > hatred at MS for a far lower level of control over the customer. That really bothers me that we have this whole, fairly large, group of previously individual people who seem to accept total control of their content that doesn't seem to bother them, at all! I know we've been brainwashing them in public schools to accept total control, but to meet it face-to-face like this is a terrible shock.... It's as if they're incapable of thinking for themselves, any more. They won't have any trouble getting them to accept the Verichip injection, convinced it's in their best interest. > > ah, you don't deal with files on the hard drive, since iTunes does all > > that automatically! [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > This is all funny as hell to see as the Applevolk are the first to spew > hatred at MS for a far lower level of control over the customer. at least with the apple crowd, everyone knows there is no vender lock in since everything is basically open source and based on open standards. with windows and nokia, verizon, etc you are pretty much trapped, but the apple world has always been based on anarchy and free thought. kinda cool since they also happen to make the best pcs's and cell phones nowadays. so it's a win, win if you are smart enough to understand it. >> > ah, you don't deal with files on the hard drive, since iTunes does all >> > that automatically! [quoted text clipped - 28 lines] > > so it's a win, win if you are smart enough to understand it. ROTFLMAO, yup, I understood that the damn things were turned to bricks, "Open Source" and all, when someone did something that the big Apple in the sky didn't like. Like I said, if you can talk the dolts into how good it is for them and maybe even make them believe that it makes them special, you can totally control the customer. I hope you have a warm, cozy, well taken care of, feeling about your Apple, it makes me happy to know that heirs to Madison Avenue in the fifties have arisen and are as skilled as ever. have a nice day > at least with the apple crowd, everyone knows there is no vender lock in > since everything is basically open source and based on open standards. So I can legally buy OS X for my home-brew PC? Ask Apple for the source code of their products under the GNU license scheme? > with windows and nokia, verizon, etc you are pretty much trapped Where exactly am I "trapped" with Windows Mobile? Trapped by the variety of manufacturers building the various devices? Trapped by the free SDK? The various application distribution methods? The 30,000 available apps? Yep, it's a claustrophobic platform, alright... > the apple world has always been based on anarchy and free thought. How so? It's the vision of one man (who is certainly a visionary, no doubt) but it's HIS vision- not yours- that makes it a bit more like a cult than a commune. > kinda > cool since they also happen to make the best pcs's and cell phones > nowadays.

You need to investigate the world OUTSIDE of Apple's kiddieware. Educate yourself to new horizons that don't have training wheels you can't take off on net appliances you don't control. I'm no coder, just an informed user. However, I really do appreciate those much smarter than I who provide me with such wonderful toys and experiences. I'm a hardware guy, and know enough not to venture too far into the software guys' domain. But, I have great respect for them. Without them, the hardware is useless, no matter how fast and brilliantly it is designed. I'm no "Nokia Fanboi", either. They happen to have built the neatest machine AT THE MOMENT, that the software geniuses seem to have "taken a shine to". Come take a spin outside the Appleware world. Leave the training wheels back home. You can't really hurt it, permanently, unless you get so frustrated you throw it through a window, of course. That's half the fun! .....and after you buy it, it costs you NOTHING to load it with some of the coolest stuff on the planet: http://maemo.org/downloads/OS2008/ just click the GREEN ARROW to install it.
