caseys Posted June 7, 2010 Author Share Posted June 7, 2010 Having read a bit more about it I am less impressed than I was initially. Screen looks lush but beyond that... What I do like about it, and the same goes for Apple in general, is how integrated and polished stuff like ibooks and most other apps are. The Android stuff just isn't there yet which is probably down to there being no single driving ideology like there is at Apple. If you're not a tinkerer and you don't mind paying for apps etc then yes I think integration and simplicity the apple model has going for it. I'll be upgrading because I'm out of contract, so I may as well, then can pass my 3gs onto the Missus then sell the 3G I previously gave her. If you want something you can tinker with no doubt android based or palmOs based phones. Or try jailbreaking, never done it for mine as I've not found the need. Again like someone above I use to tinker, tweak, tune and exploit any gadget I had. Now my job fills that appetite more than enough so I just want some simplicity (and dare I say elegance) outside of work. Yeah it's a little bit of a shiny toy, but probably the only gadget I have that's form just as much as it is function. What I am very very surpised at is that apple shares have lost $5 today, I bet they'll be a lot higher at next profit announcements. If I could buy shares easily I'd get some as they're at I think a trough. Roll on June 24th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imi Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Time to order a few from the US.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hodge Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Is there a uk release date yet. I'm due an upgrade at the end of the month and was going to go get myself a 3gs this week, but if these are out soon I'll just wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 I'd wait John. It's probably going to be 6-8 weeks at a minimum, but you might as well get the 4, as the 3g adn 3gs are now out of date Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 I will be pre ordering on the 15th on O2 and seeing what deal they can do to bundle an iPad with it... My 3G is out of contract so I've been waiting for this. Though the HTC Desire is tempting I can't be arsed to leave iTunes etc having converted over to it... Black 32Gb should suffice...can't see the need for 64Gb as I never do films or videos... Glad it's a bit smaller as it was too big (like most smartphones).

johnny g Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 That's very quick for Apple! I'm pre-registered for information and I'll be getting one as soon as possible. Not sure on the iPad yet, I'll let that stew a bit more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Exciting times. The camera is a sweet relief, and the flash will be a god send for the iphone series. I'll certainly be getting one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt H Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Why does the 4G have to revoluntionary? I want my 3GS with improvements. I don't want them to reinvent the wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Does it have flash support yet? I've not heard any noise about it supporting flash, so I'm guessing that's still a no-no from Apple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 I've not heard any noise about it supporting flash, so I'm guessing that's still a no-no from Apple. And this may explain why: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/10257411.stm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Multics Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 I've not heard any noise about it supporting flash, so I'm guessing that's still a no-no from Apple. Apple had a major fall out with Adobe, there's not going to be flash support on iphone / ipad for a while...

Multics Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Well I think it makes sense from an Apple point of view. They want to keep things under control and it's a model that works damn well for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 After my mr's i-phone caned my HTC touch pro2 at everything last night and after none of my photo's came out as anything more than smeary blobs because there is no flash I will look at upgrading to something a bit quicker in the not too distant future. Off topic slightly. I was in the O2 arena yesterday and every other person in there had i-phones. The place was crammed full with 23000 people. At an average value of £400 only 1 in 8 people there had to have one for there to be £1,000,000's worth of i-phones to be in one place??? Thats mental.
