iPhone 2.1 thoughts

Shrub, I like your style, old chap! I fully expect all those enhancements AND MORE once I've finished downloading 2.1.

Also, don't the people on this thread realise that putting the word "fail" in response to a thread is, in itself, a "fail" :rolleyes:
 
Actually it could be theoretically possible to change a microphone into a speaker from a software update. A microphone IS a speaker, just reversed to take in sound, rather then send it out. So IT could be done with a software update, but the quality would be really low on it, unless they used the same speaker set for both sides.
 
I have spent the last day dissecting iPhone and after analysing the circuitry of my device I can confirm the following relavatory fact:

The second iPhone speaker on the bottom of the phone is infact a microphone!

It turns out that the sound that I heard coming from this second 'speaker' was infact coming from the first speaker and my ears were cruelly deceiving me.

The bas*ards.

My girlfriend got a little carried away during some private time (she likes the vibrate feature of the phone) and, well, we are expecting our first child in 9 months!

Well, technically it's not really "ours"...
 
Is it normal for the iPhone to die after 2 hours of 3G use in Safari? With everything turned off except Location Services, and brightness was all the way up.
 
Has anybody noticed the earpiece sounds louder when holding to your left ear than right?

It is comments like this that threaten to ruin this fine community.

We are all here trying to conduct a serious discussion of the new and improved features of the iPhone 2.1 software update and we have to sit here and read this kind of tripe. It makes a mockery of everything that we, the apple generation, believe in and is frankly not acceptable on any level. Shame I tell you, hang your head in shame young man.

Everybody knows that the speaker is clearly louder when held to the right ear.

Mine is louder when held to the left ear. Should I exchange it? :confused:
 
The 'Shake to Shuffle' could easily by added via a software update. Apple have left this out as it is used as a 'feature' of the 4g nano. Do we want this feature on the iPhone or something else, such as Cut and Paste.:rolleyes:

True with a dynamic mic, but less so with a condensor/electret as I suspect is in the iPhone. Also, the mic is connected to a preamp that would not work in reverse.
