My iPhone

If you read the previous post, i spent the entire weekend at home...i found out in a forum that they had finally cracked the new firmware for the iPhone..excited, i started research....to cut a LONG story short..i solved it after 6 hours. YES my iPhone is perfectly working now :D The only problem remains, which phone do i use? my trusty super functional Dopod 838pro or my pretty awesome to use, though less functional iPhone.



Must admit, at first i tot the iPhone was just a showy toy that was quite useless...it was not until i really played around with it that i realized that Apple had really come up with seriously innovative stuff! Even the SMS-ing function is different where SMSes will be sorted via person like a conversation...instead of viewing SMSes by date/time, u see them by person first then date/time..simple? yes...and highly effective.



Also another cool thing is Navicon...this online service that integrates seamlessly with the iPhone and google maps to use wifi stations with GPS and TRIANGULATE your position anywhere in the world! They were like...'click here to find your location' and i was like..YA RIGHT...but when i did...i found myself staring at my home area...i was seriously stunned...



And of course the iPhone has all the usual WOW things like awesome graphics, the acceleratron (u move it and shake it and it responds - screen flips etc.), the multi-touch LCD, its incredibly small form factor...its seriously beautiful. But it cant do things like 3G, MMS or even video...but windows with all its functionality just somehow doesn't FEEL so good...so its really a case of an inferior software...although having all the hardware behind.


To sum it up, Apple has finesse and Windows has power (and is cheaper and more widely used). Somehow this draws me to Apple..hai~



For now i've decided to use BOTH phones until i can sort this out.

It is my first 30th bday present...yes thats how old i am..hai~ THANK YOU to Abigail and my parents-in-law who bought this fantastic phone for me, i wouldn't have known how good it was otherwise.
