Markie Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 Has anyone got one of these yet; what are they like? They look fantastic. Just wondering if the quality and screen for movies is top notch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Restorer Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 Colleague had one at work. I was impressed by it. The way you can browse the web and then zoom in on certain sections (DIVS I think is the technical term) was really impressive. Imagine doing a google search and you can then zoom in on just the search section or your results. Just waiting for Nic now to tell us how much they're gonna cost...

cheekymonkey Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Agree, I have had one a couple of weeks and it's a lovely bit of kit! Mine's been hacked to enable the Mail / Weather / Maps etc from the iPhone and works like a charm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markie Posted October 24, 2007 Author Share Posted October 24, 2007 How can you hack them then? Easy to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheekymonkey Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Fairly easily - it required a bit of UNIX jiggery but I think they've released a tool to do it now. It's a software-only hack so no soldering required Apple are supposed to be releasing an SDK early next year which may negate the need for hacking.

jamesmark Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 It is looks awesome, and very very slick however for £269 it is 100% not worth it, once the "Oh my god how cool is that" period has worn off it is just another exspensive Ipod.

cheekymonkey Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Yep, then it goes on eBay. Your point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveK Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 I'm actually using one to type this from an Apple shop in Miami. I like it a lot - iphone is cool too. I've just checked and everything on my current iPod would fit on this - screen is lovely and it's quite tempting. $399 for the 16gb though plus sales tax.
