Really Apple, the iPhone 3G really had the fastest 3G speeds when it launched? Really?]]>Jun 7th 2010 5:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/Jun 7th 2010 6:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/
Your pretty sure, huh? Well I was in the hospital 2 weeks ago and they had the whole place set up with free wifi. Plus, when my daughter was born, they had all the maternity suites wired up, and that was over 6 years ago. Wifi in hospitals is becoming pretty standard since they figured out how to shield the important equipment.]]>Jun 7th 2010 6:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/]]>Jun 7th 2010 7:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/Jun 7th 2010 7:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/
I've spent altogether too much time in hospitals in the last two years, and yes,they all have WiFi now.

You know that all 1,000 staff members all have their phones in their pocket. I usually mute mine out of respect that people are trying to work and don't need the additional distraction.

Yes, I worked in a hospital 10 years, no I have never seen any scientific or actual evidence of a case of any EMI happen in a hospital.]]>Jun 8th 2010 1:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/Jun 8th 2010 1:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/Jun 25th 2010 6:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/
Not sure why they're pushing this feature given its limitations.]]>Jun 7th 2010 3:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/Jun 7th 2010 3:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/
Haven't you realized it yet? People don't think about limitations when they purchase an iPhone. It's all driven by these ads that only emphasize the positive. People get wrapped up in the shineyness and the coolness that they completely ignore all the negatives. Plus, as the iPhone fanboys have already stated, the iPhone is meant for the average consumer, aka: "I have no idea how a computer works, I think it's all in the monitor, and if you try to explain it to me, my eyes gloss over. I tend to install Norton Anti-virus because I constantly click on banner ads."]]>Jun 7th 2010 3:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/
Yeah, really, the ability to do something like this is only limited on most phones by the lack of a front facing camera, which I'm sure will not be very unique to the iPhone for long (it technically was available on the EVO 4G prior to the iPhone).

My question is, if it's forced over wifi, can you really refer to it as video "calling"?]]>Jun 7th 2010 3:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/
You're right. Everyone else has though so what's your point?

Pretty much every Nokia smartphone since the N70 for a start. Then there's Window's mobile and Android phones like the Tattoo and Legend.

It's been around for a bit but not really been popular due to carrier charges.]]>Jun 7th 2010 3:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/Why do you feel so threatened about technology becoming more accessible to the "average consumer"?]]>Jun 7th 2010 3:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/
Actually I don't think the Android ones have front cameras do they so I'm not sure they can do two way which is a bit poo.

The Nokias can and have done for years though as have the WinMo phones.]]>Jun 7th 2010 3:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/
I'm not complaining - it's a great phone. It's just this feature is a head scratcher given its massive limitations. What do you want me to do - say it's wonderful when it isn't?]]>Jun 7th 2010 3:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/
Really? Like all the Nokias for example. They did it 5 years ago. And even then I though it was useless (and it still is).]]>Jun 7th 2010 3:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/

And thats just moto... in europe and asia there have been true video calling since back in 2004... so yeah forget smartphones.... dumbphones been doing it for a while , its not revolutionary... America just needs someone to push their Market Forward, and the fact that Apple chose to do it makes it Revolutionary... im no Apple Fanboy and really i try and curse everything apple, but i applaud them to a point for bringing Us Americans back to the future of the Europes Past... ]]>Jun 7th 2010 4:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/Jun 7th 2010 4:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-iphone-4-promo-videos-and-sam-mendes-video-calling-ad/
