To the OP, your post has nothing to do with where to get an iPhone!

Also, for reference, that video is more evidence that CNet is not to be trusted with reviews and "tests". The Pre may in fact be faster, but that test was a joke.]]>Jun 18th 2009 11:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/
So once the iPhone is given a negative comment by a web site, that site's reputation is officially not legitimate?]]>Jun 18th 2009 11:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/Jun 18th 2009 11:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/Jun 18th 2009 11:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/

Here is another way to put it. You cannot come to a conclusion based on a single instance. It requires several tests with several variables accounted for. The point is CNet clearly did not think through the testing at all. The outcome is irrelevant, the test sucks. ]]>Jun 18th 2009 11:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/
No amount of bitching is going to wash away those 50,000 apps available for the iPhone.

Sorry, this contest was decided the day Apple introduced the iPhone SDK.

The number of times people actually using the apps after buying is VERY VERY less.
Also remember that Apple did not have innovation in this realease of iPhone.. They were simply shit scared of Palm Pre so the just released a new phone so that apple fanboys move away from the Pre.]]>Jun 18th 2009 11:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/

Blah, blah, blah. Keep repeating that line if it makes you feel better. I feel the same way about most of the apps available for Windows, but it doesn't change the fact that Windows has 88 percent of the market. And remember, just because YOU think some app is crap, doesn't mean that someone else doesn't find it useful. The important point is that there is so much variety in the App Store, that there's something for EVERYONE.


But the bigger point of this discussion is about speed. Speed is not going to decide this contest. The SSC Ultimate Aero is the fastest car in the world. Does anyone on your street drive one? I'm sure the answer is no and why is that? The mass market of people don't buy cars based on speed alone and that goes double for gadgets.

Hey this guy works for Apple..
he knows what they have been doing for the last year...
Do you really work at apple or are you making this all up?

I guess the 100 new features, the huge spec bump and the huge improvement of stability is just them being scared of a web-app phone.

Cuz none of that was planned before the pre was first introduced in January?



Have you used the pre? How did you like the lag... or the stolen "cards" from Apple's safari mobile web browser.

This pre shit is getting annoying, if it was selling then maybe it would be worth talking about, but its pure fail. It actually fell apart during the engadget review! LMFAO

Get over yourself palm fanboys, the game is over. Now STFU

RIM > iPhone anytime!]]>Jun 19th 2009 12:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/

"I didn’t realize how much I’d come to depend on third-party iPhone apps until they weren’t there. There’s a Twitter app for the Pre but, you know, just one at the moment, so hopefully you like it. I don’t think there are any games to be found yet (and there is an unresolved question about what the performance of games will be like if they are required to be HTML/CSS based). My bus schedule tracker app was gone. But some stalwarts are there, like Pandora. A (somewhat unnervingly buggy) version of EverNote recently appeared."

Yeah, that's a really great point since the iPhone had like 30 twitter apps when it launched.]]>Jun 19th 2009 12:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/> "Only a sad douche would expect a phone that's been out for less than a month to have as many 3rd party apps as a phone that's been out for years... How many "twitter" apps did the iphone have when it came out?"

The question shouldn't be "How many apps did the iPhone have when it came out?"

The correct question is, "How many iPhone and iPod Touch owners were capable of downloading an app when the App Store finally launched?"

When the Apple App Store first opened.... there were already millions of iPhones and iPod Touches on the market. App developers raced to get their apps onto the millions of devices... using the full SDK. On launch day, it was already a huge market. Apple created a product... let it get huge... and THEN opened their app store.

In contrast, Palm is starting on the ground floor creating both a device and the app store. It's not the same comparison.

But, getting back on topic... the Apple App Store had 200 apps at launch... 1500 the next month... 3000 the next month... and you know the rest.

Sure, 49,000 of the iPhone apps are crap... but that doesn't make it any less of a platform. It proves that there are tons of developers and plenty of users. There are 40,000,000 app-capable Apple devices. And a billion app downloads.

When was the last time 1 billion of anything was downloaded in just 9 months?]]>Jun 19th 2009 2:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/You should be fair on a review. I guess you do not know the 9 months apple got before actual apps showed up in the app store. Give Pre some time and stop spreading false rumors about the Pre.]]>Jun 19th 2009 2:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/18/how-to-get-an-iphone-3g-s-tomorrow-in-us-uk-and-canada/The palm pre has PowerVR SGX GPU.
Yup that is the same GPU as in The new iPhone and also palm pre does support native apps. This means 3d games will also come and they do not need to be web based.
