Ok People...RELAX

[ebaydan777]

please people relax, we have 6 months until this phone is out, look at it its not finished you can tell the back of thephone is not finished it will change im sure, i strongly beleive steve jobs displayed this phone in time for fixes before launch date, i wouldnt be surprised if he surfed this channel in the next 4 months to get ideas from people like me and you to make this phone better

about 3g, please people enough about this, 3g is a bad idea right now our network in the US sucks with 3g it hardly covers more than 10% of land, so its pointless, and the battery usage is going to be like 30min-1hour of talk time..screw that

and for the osx, jobs clearly points out its a full osx and apps are allowed to be downloaded to the phone so stop reading those stupid news posts, like the guy that asked the security guard about it, you gotta be kidding me like that guy knows anything....im sure itll be able to have apps on it...

I has been confirmed by none other than Phil Schiller that there won't be support for third-party apps. It sucks! :mad:

which part are you talking about...5 months? no its 6 if you include january which i did, may is the 5th month not june...

or about 3g? i think 3G is a waiste of money for most americans and will most likely be mad when they get their phone and cannot use it, talk about a waiste of money for them....i fricken live in Los Angeles and the dont even have it here, only places i seen it was some east coast cities, sacramento and other larger cities but only about 5 more after looking at the cingular coverage

and the OS X...i do strongly beleive by launch date extra software will be allowed to be placed on the phone, and also beleive he will make the phone bluetooth to sync wirelessly, again i dont know if its true but im going to cross my fingers

The next person who complains about grammar or spelling in this thread will see a 3 day ban.

The same applies to the next person who complains about people complaining.

I've deleted most of the crap and edited some posts.

:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

I'd hope that everyone could discuss the ideas in the OP and not the writing style.

Thanks!

ya, your right on this. I guess that job's said to nytimes that the phone will be closed ended but will be creating its own software as the time goes by and as soon as whatever he is creating is finished and ready to be downloaded to the from probably from itunes. This isnt going to be like the ipod like everyone thinks, where you can download the cheapo games to your phone, no it will be real, with real software that is useful and some may be on widgets special for the phone. I think that a lot of software we see for the smartphone that is useful will be on the iphone, such as jobs said they are very much considering skype or another voip company, they just need to fix the deal with cingular, which they will apple has them by the nuts. Im sure something along the lines of iwork and ilife will be included, iphoto is in there and im sure DOC and EXCEL readers will be on there as well along with PDF readers, Jobs said the software is not done at all and will have many many more features down the line by release date

thanks for the info k munic.

as for 3G yea they don't need it in the US but in europe and many other places 3G is common place almost standard. so it would be frowned upon if it didnt have it when they release it outside of the US.

we will see though.
