Keep the customers
lighten up.
Then i will think about running straight 3.0
Otherwise, i will wait for the dev-team.
GIVE ME EVERYTHING THAT I JAILBROKE FOR AND I WILL BE HAPPY!]]>Mar 16th 2009 12:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/
1. Fix the app store : this means giving explicit criteria for what meets and doesn't meet their expectations. Clarity and transparency throughout the whole application and approval process (who approves these things, what do they do, what is tested, for how long, e.t.c.) This also means putting a renewal process in place for the contracts which are _about to expire_, since there is no renewal support infrastructure in place, at all right now.

2. Push : The feature that was promised from day one, fixed, working, and done perfectly. Apple has now had, what, 2 years to figure this out?

3. Multitasking : This is what is keeping a lot of people (including myself) shy of the iPhone. If it can't multitask, is it really even a smartphone in the purest of sense? This same feature lacking is what killed the old Palm OS, and it will begin hurting apple as well. Multitasking fluidity is where your hardware shines, or looks crappy.

4. Copy and Paste : I don't need to say any more. We'll see how true Diggnation dude's rumors and inside sources are on this one. If copy and paste truly is a feature, it's obvious that Jobs influence is already waning.

5. Better Safari, with flash : I love using Safari on the iPhone, but it admittedly does lack refinement when it comes to stability (even though this has improved), and it does need flash desperately. Apple and Palm need to both kick Adobe's ass into gear and get them going on getting that huge slow flash codebase working on ARM.

6. Tethering - I can't ever buy an iPhone because I won't be able to tether, truly. All the tethering software I've seen so far requires some SOCKS proxy and a prayer to work. WM users have had wmwifirouter for just about since the beginning of time, and built in ICS support to boot. That means a fully NAT routed, DHCP-servin, wifi AP looking network, instantly. No proxies, no fuss, just start, connect, online. Until that's out, I'm out.

Things that are less important:
MMS, Video support, App Organization, ]]>Mar 16th 2009 12:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/
1. I think the criticisms of the approval process are overblown. Tens of thousands of apps have made it through without any hassle or problem, and the number that have been rejected is really small. The number that have rejected erroneously is even smaller and Apple have reversed the decision on some of those. It is a process with a real error rate (not including valid rejections) of less than 0.1% which is extremely low.

2. Agreed, 100% - it is really embarrassing for Apple that Push does not work.

3. Multitasking kills battery life, and Apple has enough trouble with battery life on these devices already. It would open up so many abilities and features, though, so when the competitors are released, the iPhone will be a joke without it. I still doubt we will see it in v3.

4. I have never needed copy and paste, and the millions who have bought the iPhone and Touch haven't exactly been vocal about needing it. Gee, it really gets the tech-heads' and blog commenters' blood boiling, though! This is something that has become a mere catch-cry. I would take any other single improvement over copy and paste.

5. I hate Flash on websites, but websites seem to love Flash, so we can't have a proper browser without it, so agreed.

6. Apple does not hate tethering. They could care less. The carriers, though, loathe the idea of no-surcharge tethering. If you want tethering, lobby the carriers, it is not Apple that is stopping it.

Less important - App organisation - hey! Don't say that, that is the one thing I want more than anything! I've now got hundreds of apps and swapping them on and off is a painful, tiresome process, let alone getting them on the page I want them. I am getting the medical condition "iPhone finger" from dragging so many apps to different pages.]]>Mar 16th 2009 8:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/2. Background apps - VERY VERY necessary
3. In Built messenger - can be taken care of by 3rd party if background apps are supported
4. More stable Safari - No crashes when working with complicated pages like Orkut - classical (not mobile version).
5. Ability to edit docs on google docs atleast - Atleast provide basic text editing.
6. Ability to view long song names on iPod app
7. GPS trail - show a small trail of previous GPS positions on the map so I know where I am coming from, it's very difficult to figure out my current heading on the Googls maps application while driving.
8. GPS direction - figure out some method to show current direction (may be use consecutive locations to do it, or 2 receivers).
9. GPS manual route - Provide a method to manually mark tracks on GPS maps so I can make a track and follow it while driving, or get help from local people on finding out paths.]]>Mar 17th 2009 1:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/
The only thing that bothers me on a regular basis with the UI is the lack of a landscape keyboard in apps like the Mail client.
The ability to play Flash is near the top of my (and everybody else's) list as well.]]>Mar 17th 2009 10:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/Mar 17th 2009 11:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/Mar 17th 2009 11:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/
Copy and Paste. One of those things that when you need it, you really need it. such as when someone e-mails you a WEP/WPA key

Disk Usage. I would love to be able to use the iPhone as a disk and have separately available document readers, not just in e-mail.

E-Mail multiple attachments - I'd like to be able to attach multiple documents and photos to an e-mail

Document editing. I have no plans on writing a novel, or even a letter on the iPhone, but the ability to make quick edits and e-mail would be awesome

Powerpoint / Keynote. I'd like to be able to hook up the video cable and give a presentation. I'd pay for iWork on the iPhone, or Apple should include it you you purchase the desktop version.

Multitasking. Maybe. if they can throttle in the CPU usage to not kill the battery this would be nice. Push would meed most of my needs

Push. I would really like to have something like Trillian running in the background. With Push the app wouldn't need to be running.

Support for bluetooth profiles.

That's all I got.]]>Mar 17th 2009 11:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/
The problem Apple has when it comes to battery life is that they are trying to make the phone rediculously thin, but at the same time have it super-powerful, with a huge(ish) screen, AND 3G, Wi-Fi, and GPS radios/recievers. As a result, instead of trying to improve the hardware, they're blaming the OS and seriously throttling it's functionality.

Honestly, I think most iPhone users wouldn't mind having an extra few millimetres of thickness in order to incorporate a battery that lasts more than a day. Make it like the Macbook Air battery, since we can't remove it anyway.]]>Mar 17th 2009 11:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/
I have the original iPhone and I routinely get 2+ days on a charge, so I buy the argument that 3G is a battery killer as compared to EDGE.

I have often thought that I would prefer a phone 2 to 3 mm thicker. With Lithium Polymer batteries that extra volume could allow for a battery almost twice the size.

On the other hand, this is software update, so all this is moot.]]>Mar 17th 2009 12:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/
My N95 had an abysmal battery when I first bought it (often It would run out before I could finish my day and get to a charger), when version 12.x came out, the battery life improved signifigantly Nokia, I believe, changed the power-save settings to make better use of the screen save and radio functions

And then when version 20.x came out, it improved even more, to the point that I was getting almost double the battery life of the original. And to be fair, you hit the nail on the head when you said they should throttle the CPU. The N95 had a decently powerful one when it came out, and it was powerful enough to run most tasks with power to spare, even when multitasking. So the 20.x update re-mapped the CPU usage so that if a percentage of the CPU's power was not being used, it turned down the clock speed that percentage (or so I'm led to believe). Like I said, I saw probably about a 70% increase in battery life over version 11.x

I'm sure Apple can do this, and it would be great if they could.]]>Mar 17th 2009 12:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/
Just like what happened to that one Walmart store? The one where the employee got stumbled upon on Black Friday?]]>Mar 17th 2009 12:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/
Copy paste would be nice but again I don't see when or where I would use it... I would love to be able to edit doc or xls then copy paste would be useful.

I don't care for flash really but since I can't see some of the pages I read every day cuz the menu is in flash i'd love any kind of support even if it doesnt work all that well.

What about a way to organize the pictures in the camera roll thats been killing me, some more camera options would be nice too.

GPS with voice turn by turn directions....

Some sort of Exposé or Spaces to be able to change from one app page to the other.. or at least make it so when i'm at the first page, I can swipe my finger from left to right to see the last page.]]>Mar 17th 2009 12:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/Mar 17th 2009 1:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/
Engadget, PLEASE PAY RYAN BLOCK WHATEVER HE WANTS AND GET HIM BACK.

These live blogs are excruciating with the ultra-snide commentary - at least Ryan could be funny when he'd do that. I don't need to know that if I was one of the 5 people with jailbroken iPhones I would have a search feature with a subset of Spotlight. It's just juvenile.]]>Mar 17th 2009 4:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/Mar 23rd 2009 2:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/Mar 16th 2009 11:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/1. Really good multitasking. I know that apple doesn't want to
do it bcause of the horribleness in WinMo, but look at Palm!
2. Camera: I want Video, zoom and effects.
3. Attach more then one pic to emails. And save attachments, like if I get an MP3 I want to b able to push a button and save it.
4. Better Safari. Flash, etc.
5. Real Bluetooth, come on, I want to be able to connect to my Macbook(yes, one if your products, apple)with my phone.
6. Copy and paste... I don't think this is that important, I jailbroke my phone mainly so I could, but haven't used it since.
7. MMS, mobile iWork, and put the .com button in all the keyboards everywhere.
Tethering would be killer, but theyle never do it. At least without having to pay AT&T more everymonth.]]>Mar 17th 2009 11:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/
So, yah, I believe its a hardware limitation and Apple will never include it in these iPhones, only way to get it is jailbreak and get the "Backgrounder" app and then enjoy maybe 2 apps open at once, or wait for the next hardware update from iPhone, which will cost you another 2 years from AT&T and probably another 200 bucks... so get the Pre if you so want all the features. My opinion!

Oh, and it's funny that most of the features that people are begging for on the iPhone have been standard on Windows Mobile phones for years..]]>Mar 17th 2009 12:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/Mar 16th 2009 12:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/Mar 16th 2009 12:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/Mar 17th 2009 2:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/Mar 16th 2009 12:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/I have heard alot of people and experts say that with a new os comes a new iphone

So i dont think 3g users will be getting a 3.0 update
I think we are stuck with what we have

3.0 will come with a new iphone all together like iphone 4g

Kind of bummed now.]]>Mar 16th 2009 12:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/

I'm glad somebody has relised this.

@Scott

iPhone users will get the update for free, but if there's also an update for the iPod Touch then yes, they will most likely have to pay for it like the 1st gen Touch users had to do to get their hands on OS 2.0 (which was $15), but that was cause it included the app store, so whether they have to pay for it will be depending on the features I suppose. If iPhone users do have to pay for it, I'm just going to Jailbreak my phone (don't make fun, I keep hoping for a breakthrough OS, which will hopefully be 3.0).]]>Mar 16th 2009 8:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/Mar 17th 2009 11:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/I want hands on.

========
Play by play:
========

1. Intro by iPhone Dev. Scott Forstall
2. Talks about how well the iPhone is selling, gives figures
3. Talks about how well the App store is doing, gives figures
4. Talks about how many developers are still developing new apps today
5. Success stories here and there
6. Talks about how Games are selling extremely well and that iPhone/iPod Touch are a new gaming platform
6a. Talks about how App Store will begin to be reorganized to reflect the more than 20,000+ apps, etc.
7. Now he talks about how Apple was already working on iPhone 3.0 whilst finishing iPhone 2.0 software update
8. What was missing: Old Checklist accomplished, New Checklist grew
9. Mentions iPhone as becoming more and more the central device for the needs of most users (hint, laptop replacement in most cases)
10. Checklist:

- Multitask (explains Push Notification saga abit, but then quickly backtracks and segues into the new Springboard, similar to Palm Pre's 'card system', also, search from the Springboard)
- Filesystem for saving files locally (yay!)
- Better Mail tools (Unified inbox, multiple signatures, and SEARCH)
- Support for web apps to run as local apps
- Better SMS management, forwarding

^^ Big thing here is that there is some kind of new icon that will simply let you see diverse info at once, like on a Blackberry. Think of it as a new inbox of sorts, where you'll have calendar, sms, email, etc. all appear in one centralized location

- Tethering (although they're not yet discussing a specific date, just a time frame as in this Summer '09 just b/c AT&T still needs to work out the kinks with their 3G network)
- On more thing....Copy and Paste

11. More things to come, so stay tuned schpiel at the end
12. Questions with journalists (Refuse to answer anything about Steve Jobs' health or the new iPhone update in June)

No Flash (Adobe and Apple are no where near a final solution. Still a work in progress).
No MMS (Steve refuses to budge on MMS only because he wants people to email each other the pics, hence use a smartphone like the iPhone).

That's all folks!]]>Mar 16th 2009 1:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/Mar 16th 2009 2:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/Mar 17th 2009 1:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/

I assume by 'Speakerphone Volume' he means that the top volume at the moment emanating FROM the speakerphone is very low. Which more-or-less defeats the purpose of a speakerphone.

And I have to agree, the iPhone speakers are dysmal in comparison to say, the Omnia, or the N95/85/96]]>Mar 17th 2009 12:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/Mar 17th 2009 12:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/Mar 18th 2009 3:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/Pre > iPhone

Hopefully apple busts out a massive "one more thing" to put the pre in its place.]]>Mar 18th 2009 2:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/17/live-from-apples-iphone-os-3-0-preview-event/

scottadiener1972 - The 2.0 update was supported on the iPhone 1G and 3G, not sure why you don't think 3.0 will work on iPhone 1G and 3G. It will.

macfan406 - heard of XRoad? turn by turn app available. don't think it requires jailbreak, not 100%

1) copy and paste
2) tethering
3) Flash
4) Silence the phone when in meetings based on Calendar data
5) faster speeds beyond 3.6Mbps in the 3G implmentation of the iPhone 3G. Currently only supports up to this speed, newer phones support up to 7.2 Mbps. Might need a new 3G chip though.
6) A2DP - come on Apple, I can manage my battery.
7) ActiveSync improvements
a) turn off AS sync during off-hours to save some battery when I configure via schedule and not Push
b) filter ability in Mail. Type something in Mail, and the list of items is filter to what matches. make things easier to find
c) better calendar features - integrate more with AS
8) arrow keys for the keyboard. the magnifying glass is too hard to put the cursor where I want it, especially in Safari

All I can think of off the top of my head. I am sure there are others.]]>Mar 16th 2009 6:41PM
