Quote from Dajmin :That actually made me chuckle. And, coincidentally, is what I say to people who I see using iPhones when I'm still stuck with my broken-cased Samsung E370

Haha, i was just too tired to think up of a decent response.
Why not save up and buy something else?

Quote from Shadowww :Typical American thinking, yeah. I wonder if you really live in UK and not in USA.

Hardly american thinking, just factual thinking, iphones here are around £200-300ish pounds i think whereas i see notebooks on the tv for around £300-£400.
Would you like a picture of my island so you can check i live in the uk?


Quote from Becky Rose :[/I]Personally when i'm on the bus I don't give a damn what anyone thinks of me, i'll pull out an electronic device to pass the time. I enjoy surfing the web and checking up on facebook a lot more than I enjoy twiddling my thumbs.

Not everything is about being flash and bling, even if the headphones are white.

Yes Becky but not all of us are as cool as you so we cant do that

Quote from imthebestracerthereis :I had iNav on for about 10 minuets, it didn't look like an iPhone that I loved so I took it off. The damn theme takes like an hour to set up too :thumbsdow

Yeah it does take a while to set up, i mainly left it on because iNav themes are so different from the normal themes.

Oh come on, to each his own....

And for some reason i havent acctually managed to find any themes which work on my ipod with the new update.
So i found some screenies of the theme i had before my last one, i rather liked this theme, i just found it a bit fiddly to use sometimes.
The theme i had on was an iNav theme... was meant to look like this...







But i went through and customized it for myself, replaced all the icons, made a few background changes, and used a different media player skin...



















I never acctually finished customizing this theme though, i posted these screenies up on the ipod touch fans forum and got some interest in it, so i said id finish it and i never did .

I was meant to change the background to a darker one which i tested

But never acctually implemented. I was also meant to add text under each apps icon, and also create a Safari theme to go with the dark nature of things.

Shame i never finished it, it couldl've looked rather good.

I dont usually double post but this deserves it's own post away from my one above.


Jailbreak is now possible for the iPod touch(Both Generations) and the iPhone(2G&3G)
http://www.ipodtouchfans.com/forums/showthread.php?t=203162

http://thepiratebay.org/torren ... 140/redsn0w-win_0.7.1.zip

Also on the dev team website they have some rules, and i think their important for iPhone users(Although i have no clue what any of it means as im not an iPhone user) so i've pasted it out below.
  1. GOLDEN RULE: If you are using a 3G iPhone with yellowsn0w and rely on yellowsn0w to obtain cellular service, then you should NOT use redsn0w right now. Ultrasn0w (the 3G carrier unlock) is not included with this release and therefore your baseband will be locked and unable to use an operator other than the official one it was bought for. UltraSn0w will be released via APT (cydia and icy) soon. If you have an original iPhone (1st generation) then 3.0 carrier unlock works with this redsn0w release.
  2. Yellowsn0w in its current form will NOT work with the baseband version that is present in the 3.0 update, you will need Ultrasn0w, which will be released sometime soon, Ultrasn0w will work with all iPhone 3G models (but not 3GS), even ones that were previously unlockable, Ultrasn0w (when available) will be released via APT (this means you will be able to get it via Cydia or Icy).
  3. Please read all parts of this post before downloading and using these tools.
  4. Read items 1, 2 and 3 again and again.
  5. At the bottom of this post are the bittorrent files for the latest version of redsn0w.
  6. This app is suitable for the recent 3.0 release
  7. redsn0w will NOT work for the iPhone 3GS.
  8. redsn0w WILL work for Original iPhone (1st Generation), Original iPod touch, iPod touch 2G and the iPhone 3G (not the iPhone 3GS).
To use redsn0w simply upgrade the device in iTunes to firmware version 3.0 and run redsn0w to activate and jailbreak the device (and if you are using an original iPhone 2G, it will unlock it too!)

Quote from Shadowww :iPhone isn't good quality. Basically, after a day of using, it's screen looks like this:

After a day of poor use it looks like that, i'll take a picture of my dads iphone later when he gets back and it still looks great.


Quote from Shadowww : And cheaper.

MSI Wind U100 = £258.98

Nokia 1112 = £44.49

Total of £308.47

iPhone
Cheapest iPhone 3G = £342.50
Cheapest iPhone 3Gs = £440.40

The price difference between the iPhone 3Gs and your package is £131.93 but the price difference the iPhone 3G and your package is only £34.03
So yes your package may be cheaper but only by 30 odd quid. (Dont bother trying to find a cheaper price for the Notebook and Phone because i can quite easily find an unbelivably cheap iPhone.)

Quote from Shadowww :iWantToShowOffHowRichButStupidIAm.

If i saw two people on lets say the bus, one person pulls out a notebook, the other pulls out an iphone, i would be more inclined to say the notebook is more expensive, and that the owner of the notebook is bassicly saying "iWantToShowOffHowRichButStupidIAm"

Quote from Shadowww :Besides, who cares how "sexy" his phone is? Phone isn't something to wank at, is it?

I care how "sexy" my phone is and im pretty sure ALOT of people care how sexy their phone is. And no you dont wank AT the iphone, but their are quite a few good porn sites optomized for the iPhone.

Quote from Shadowww : And phone is... phone. Tool to call others. If you need internet, games, videoplayer etc, a netbook is like 1000000 times better

Thats absolute BS.

Internet: The other day i was at my friends changing everything from wired to wireless and when i had finally set up the wireless i was connected and on safari on my itocuh wayyyy before he was even connected to the internet.

Games: Games for the iPhone/iTouch are made FOR the iPhone and iTouch so when you get them you know they will work.
Games made for PC's are NOT made for the MSI Wind U100.
Specifications Of The U100
As you can see the notebook specs are shockingly bad, all its really for is watching videos, listning to music and browsing the internet, i doubt you can get any good games on that, probably solitaire or something like that?
Heres a few comparisons between games for the notebook and how well i guess they would run compared to games as simuler as possible but for the iPhone.

The Sims 3
PC:
- 2.0 GHz P4 processor or equivalent
- 1 GB RAM
- At least 6.5 GB of hard drive space with at least 1 GB additional space for custom content
- 128 MB Video Card with support for Pixel Shader 2.0

I think your notebook would just about run it, i expect graphics on low.

iPhone:
Runs iPhone version of The Sims 3 fine.

Brothers In Arms
PC: Brothers In Arms: Road to Hill 30
- Processor: Pentium III or AMD Athlon 1 GHz (Pentium IV or AMD Athlon 2.5 GHz recommended)
- RAM: 256 MB (1 GB recommended)
- Video Card: 64 MB DirectX 9.0c compliant (128 MB recommended) (see supported list*)

Your notebook could just about run it, not at a fun fps though.

iPhone: Brothers In Arms: Hour Of Heroes
Runs the iPhone version of Brothers In Arms fine.

I would go over more games but im in a rush as i have to go to town now.

Quote from Shadowww :Meh, 2 days of battery life...

Nokia 1112 for calls & messages (~2 weeks of battery life) + MSI Wind U100 (12 hours of battery life with 9-cell battery) is much better (and cheaper (at least here)) combo than iPhone.

Yes but people dont get an iphone just to text and call....
They get it for "quality" and although the iphone isnt amazing amazing quality, that nokia is just shite quality, and the iphone kicks its ass.
I hate people who compare to completely different things, that nokia isnt of amazing quality, isnt nice to look at, probably not nice to touch, youd look like such a fag in public, and doesnt have many feautres besides ringing and texting.
Iphone is good quality, sexy to look at, pretty nice to hold, you look fashionable and public, and has a hell of alot of features!
Yeah sure if you just want to text and call without giving two shniz's about the phone quality and features then go for the crappy Nokia, but if you give a damn then then you would get something better... like the iphone.

As an example your bassicly comparing feet to a car. Your feet still do the job and for much cheaper, but people get a car because its miles better.

Quote from DeKo :It has always has had a form of satnav, i use it all the time, but its not a proper turn by turn, its just a 2d top down view and it doesnt give you proper instructions, you have to be looking at it all the time.

Yeah i knew that, thats just the google maps thing, but i meant like a proper tom tom, turn by turn directions, that sexy ladie voice ect ect.

I've just found my bluetooth headset and im trying to connect it to my ipod touch, but my ipod just doesnt seem to find it, its searching bluetooth and just wont find it.
Stupid update


Edit: What i meant to say in the post you quotes was that before my dad got the iphone i always thought it had proper turn by turn gps, but when he got it i realised it didnt, it only had the google maps type.

Double edit: I think my dads reaction pretty much sums this update up "I dont see anything knew". Sure theres spotlight and voice memo, but thats pretty much all there is, theres nothing else that we can really use right now.

Quote from Becky Rose :Yah the backup, I dont have my apps or music - and my music PC is dead so i'm having to make a new collection out of the megre collection on my laptop (which is still around 800 albums, but that's not the point - I now dont have ANY Lovecrave and only 1 Genitorturers album - do you have any idea how tragic this is? I COULD REALLY DIE)

*cries*

The backup doesnt backup your music or apps
It just backups things such as contacts, game info, calander things, layout of your home menu.
Things like photos, videos, music and apps arent backed up.
Whoopsie

Quote from Becky Rose :Just got my iPhone 3G S, I only got the 16gb model (I would need well over 50gb to have my whole music collection on anyway...) as it was a free upgrade.

Backed up my old iPhone, swapped the sim over (which meant wittling a pin out of a cotton bud because I literally have no pins small enough to open the sim thingy in the house!), just did the restore and...

nothing trasnfered.

What do you mean nothing transfered? Your contacts on your sim? Or your backup in itunes?

Quote from DeKo :Been playing with it all day, copy/paste and text forwarding are so incredibly useful, i didnt mind when they werent there, but now they are its class. Also, spotlight search is a brilliant idea.

cant wait for proper turn by turn apps, heard it through the grapevine that tomtom are going to offer a windscreen mounted iphone dock, and a proper sat-nav app. As long as its relatively inexpensive it will be great.

Also, push email now works as it should. Ive no idea how it works or why, but my phone now alerts me if i get an email without having to go into email app. Either im being a tit and it was always there and i had it turned off or whatever, i still like.

The copy/paste is a bit fidly to get used to at first i find.
And i always thought that the iphone always had a tom tom sort of application, thats how i managed to get my dad to buy one, i told him that it had gps so you could use it as a tom tom.

Quote from PLAYAPIMP :same with me i still got my 800+ songs and TTR2.6 so im good for now and i have all my games synced on itunes i just need to get the mipatchfirmware thing from cydia and ill be all set...

btw what theme did you use

Haha only 800 songs? :P 2016 on my ipod touch and then 10394 on my computer if i wanted more.
Also got 23 videos
59 apps
and STILL 12.8gb left over haha.
Isnt the mipatchfirmware thing for Installous?
And the theme i used was


With a few modifications to it.

It's called iElegance, its in cydia
I like the themes which are nice and simple and dont make everything look CRAZY
