It may not be the fastest, but it works. I'm not made of money ya know.

Btw, I have apples multitasking and wallpapers enambled. Works well enough. The iPhone 3G should support multitasking. No excuses, Apple. ]]>Jun 21st 2010 7:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/Jun 21st 2010 7:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/Jun 21st 2010 7:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/Jun 21st 2010 7:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/Jun 21st 2010 7:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/
A 3GS is only 100 bucks now, 3G users give iPhone 3GS and soon to be iPhone 4 users a bad name. The Androids only want to comapre their Snapdragon powered 2010 phones to a 400 MHz phone made in '08.]]>Jun 21st 2010 7:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/2 months ago I had to do it manually on the first 4.0 Beta...

less memory
less storage
a WORSE screen/resolution
one less year of software support
worse resale value

No one should buy the 3GS from Apple IMO, buy an "unlocked" (quotes for the U.S. and a few other select places) and avoid the contract subsidy or buy the iPhone 4. It's ~4 bucks a month difference over 24 months, but what people wont consider is that some of this money can be recouped when you are ready to sell. I'll venture that the 3GS wont hold its value as well as the iPhone 4 (because it's overpriced relative to the iPhone 4). ]]>Jun 21st 2010 8:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/
Steve Jobs is REALLY trying to say that it can't handle screen-orientation locking??? I'm all for your success but lets cut the b***s*** Jobs...

Upgrade to new device, not happening.]]>Jun 21st 2010 8:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/Resale value? The lifespan of any of these phones (and most electronics) is so damn short. There isn't any real resale value unless you're going to sell it in the next 6 months. By then the Iphone 4 will be at walmart for $99. Early adopters ALWAYS get gouged especially from Apple.]]>Jun 21st 2010 8:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/I have my 3Gs listed on ebay.

As an itouch 2nd gen owner its unacceptable that the device cannot use the wallpaper feature unless jailbroken.

As a HTC Hero owner I'm plenty happy with my Android regardless of iphone generation.

As a Chicago Blackhawks fan it was great to win the Stanley Cup in PA :)

You triple fail, congrats]]>Jun 21st 2010 8:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/Jun 21st 2010 8:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/
Seeing as he "wasn't made of money", I would recomend he spent 100 on the 3GS vs the iPhone 4 or EVO...]]>Jun 21st 2010 9:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/Jun 21st 2010 9:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/
The 'excuse' is ... its like 2 year old hardware...it probably will just be clunky and slow with multitasking.]]>Jun 21st 2010 9:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/
The iPod touch 1G does not have the same hardware as the iPhone 3G; it doesn't even have the same hardware as the original iPhone. The processor speed hierarchy is as follows, slowest to fastest:

iPod touch 1G
iPhone
iPhone 3G
iPod touch 2G
iPhone 3GS/iPod touch 3G
iPhone 4]]>Jun 21st 2010 9:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/Jun 21st 2010 9:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/
You've got to be kidding me. My friend had it enabled on his 3G and it was /so/ laggy that his apps would take forever to load, and he would receive a txt message an hour later. ]]>Jun 21st 2010 9:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/Jun 21st 2010 9:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/Jun 21st 2010 9:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/Jun 21st 2010 9:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/Jun 21st 2010 9:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/

Developing against it, iOS doesn't even do cron jobs. And 'multitasking' isn't multitasking, it's backgrounding with a FREAKING time limit and iOS can kill you app anytime! No thanks!

Otherwise, the event kit and notifications framework are finally usable!]]>Jun 21st 2010 10:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/iOS4 will not be able for iPad Users until fall..

Sitting here with my 2nd gen iPod Touch and I'm underwhelmed with iOS4 beyond belief.

The update also seems to have broken my Exchange support so now my email, contacts and calendar are not working. Awesome update!

The only plus so far, Blades of Fury, a game purchased over a year ago that NEVER worked and was denied a refund by both Apple and Gameloft is now working...oh joy!

All anti Android fragmentation talk should pretty much cease now. The trick of calling it iOS4 when it's really 1OS3.5 is only one Apple tards would fall for. ]]>Jun 22nd 2010 1:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/21/iphone-3g-ios-4-and-you-whats-missing-spoiler-multitaski/
just because apple has the same problem doesn't mean android's fragmentation becomes a non-issue
