Since you seem to be a materials expert, why exactly would you prefer steel to aluminum? More importantly, what is the benefit of metal over a high-quality plastic? Do you have hardness figures to cite? How about providing a deformation curve or two to show that the metals will elastically deform better? Or more to the point, citing reasonable tolerances for what you'd expect in the materials used? Also, I'm sure you've taken into account the fact that the plastic case will allow for better reception, right?
I haven't seen an Apple product released yet, where some people haven't said the new product was less than what they expected, or didn't meet their hopes/wishes for it. I personally love the iPhone 4 and wish I had a Dolorean to get to June 24th. Anticipation kind of sucks and then if there are supply shortages and I have to wait even longer, AHHHH!
i mean seriously. I am an apple fanboy, and the iPad had my same opinion, but I bought it, i'm not saying i wouldnt buy this, because i will eventually, but i am one of those who didnt get an early upgrade, but the new iPhone isn't worth paying full price for it.
all thats new is Front Facing camera, improved camera, HD recording, better graphics.
seems like an 3GS 2 to me.
Don't flame me, I LOVE apple. Just dont think the anticipation was worth it.
What do you guys think?
We will see the iPhone on another carrier eventually in the US. Apple is a company and companies like money.
There's lots of money to be made by supporting another carrier. It's not really hard for a common person to see this as a reality.
Jobs calls it iPhone 4 instead of iPhone HD to confuse the average Joe into thinking that it is a 4G device.... deceptive!
Sprint has the only 4G device, and I switched to it last Friday. I still use Mac's, but no more "walled garden" iPhone toys.
I agree. Had AT&T not bumped my upgrade date, I wouldn't be buying one. But since I can and probably break even selling my 3GS, I'll upgrade.

I have an iPhone 3G and going from the 3G to the 4 is HUGE. I can't be more excited right now. All you people being negative Nancys can't bring me down.
Perhaps you don't own a 3G or 3GS?.....the plastic has been a horrible experience for most considering the cracking issue....

I think he wanted something that'll help him get laid. Good luck with that.
Jobs showed 9 new features said there were 100 new features on the phone so there is plenty more to it... hopefully
They had all the press and their demo over one line I bet. Mistake that they won't make next time.
