How funny. That Bryan bloke is my cousins mate
Pardon my lack of UK speak, but does mate mean spouse or *** lover?
why does macrumors always gana say "also since we want more ad revenue we are gana say at the end of a none related rumor random people that have been saying the same thing since 2007 believe there is a Verizon iphone"
come on first it's none related and two a person who knows anything aboutand the people making up these random claims since 07 know there isnt gana be a Verizon iphone this year.
Please tell me English isn't your first language.
You have no idea how stupid you sound, if you came to england and said that you would be laughed at or beaten up.
Don't blame me, it is Monty Python's fault.
i should have multi quote this sorry for consecutive post.
how is the multi tasking better? as of 2.2 i hold the home button and it now shows the recent most 8 apps instead of 6. with all those apps running in back ground it causes slow downs and restarts at times.
ill give you the better notifications system. and turn by turn. my treo 755p had text to speech. i feel is a gimmick its hardly used. ill give you widgets. push dir from google has not been implemented yet on 2.2 if so idk how its done.
i say google has just caught up or is now on par. so i think it comes down to features vs stability and my opinion android os will nvr be as stable as iphone os. maybe more features but thats it.
That's fine, it is his choice. I just think it's disrespectful to talk that way to someone you don't know at all. Trust me, I'm not some uptight, conservative old guy. I'm 24, covered in tattoos, and play and sing in punk bands. I say some horrible things quite often, but only when I'm joking around with friends or family.
There's a time and a place but rightfully so, it is your choice if you want to come off as a disrespectful, limited vocabulary ignoramus.
I bet you anything Apple is FINALLY going to release Flash for the iPhone and iPad.
Flash for the iPhone yes - as in a camera flash.
The only time frame they took Apple by surprise was when Schmidt was on the board plotting all this while listening to the details of the iPhone development.
"For a man may smile and smile, and yet be a villain." William Shakespeare, Hamlet.
But that's okay. Google is "open," so it's cool what they do.
This is Apple vs. Microsoft all over again, except this time Google is the new Microsoft. And the parallels are eerie. I am afraid for Apple, actually. Way back when, Apple invented a new product category and enjoyed quite a lot of success. It was innovative and different. The product was Macintosh, the innovation a "GUI", and of course a proprietary "closed" platform.
What happened? Microsoft created a GUI interface that accomplished 99% of what Mac could do, albeit not as beautifully, and sold it to 96% of the computer buying public. You don't grow market share by having a closed system where you control the hardware and software. It's 2010 and Mac market share is still in the single digits. Google is following in Microsoft's footsteps by creating an OS which it is licensing across many different hardware manufacturers and wireless carriers.
Android's market share will grow exponentially compared to iPhone OS due to the licensing strategy. And where do you think the developers will go? They will go where the market share will be - Android. History appears to be repeating itself. I think Google is going to creme Apple in terms of market share, and as developers follow the iPhone and iPad will languish.

Beware of multiples that high.
Now, this speed-up: will all Android phones get it? Why, no. Only the very latest and greatest. The others would choke on this crap. 1.6 users, go sit on a rope. Open. The rest who are eligible, wait until the update comes down the way from your provider. Maybe yes, maybe no. Why would they? They'll like you to buy a new phone, wouldn't they?
Amazing that Steve gets the "reality distortion field" treatment, when the wildest crap that Schmidt says is gospel for the googleboys.
Not just the regulators.
Nerds also need to have a war to believe in.
It seems like a classic ploy get everyone talking Google vs Apple then in a lot of peoples minds then those must be the only two choices.
Ok, now we're talking!
Pretty obvious
It's very obvious since Google knew what apple plans were, so did Apple knew what Google's intentions are. Apple knew that Google was gonna go at full force with their Android, so they had to catch up and do things like camera flash, front facing camera, and all those things that they wanted to keep for later OS. Competition is great. I'm glad it's Google they competing against now and not Windows Mobile.

You don't understand, Apple never wanted to have such monopoly over anything. It's not in their DNA.
"Sent from my iPhone" is the default signature on all iPhones for emails...
It's quote ironic that Winni calls Steve Jobs a five year old, when he himself plays with stuffed animals that even have names as can be seen on his personal homepage...
Here's one who believes that Apple invented the GUI:
Here's one who believes he is right:
The other day, I recall someone suggesting that Apple invented the mouse.
Seriously, give it a few years, and fanboys will believe that Apple invented the telephone. Which, of course, they did. Alexander Graham Bell was such a poser.
I will make merry the day Steve Jobs uses a smiley in one of his emails !
ok Frodo
Sorry Paddy, but if you actually read my quote it says that those people amused me. At no point did I get angry or slag them off, I just thought the apparent duality was comical. But I get your point, and to me, the email was utterly pointless.
Sorry pal, but that's just not punk, no matter what Avril Lavigne tells you.
