IPhone: *Thumbs up* for Apple
WOW, it's possible to use a bt keyboard with an IPhone. This is the future ... it shows the advantages of Apple's closed source strategy. :eek:

Re: IPhone: *Thumbs up* for Apple
and yet you see all kinds of US tech blogs reporting it as impressive progress...

I also remember reading a while that someone had coaxed a stripped down version of greasemonkey onto an iphone and everyone was so impressed. So stupid as we have had greasemonkey on Maemo for quite some time. The other thing is that technically 99% of the apps that we (well me anyway) install and use on Maemo are not Nokia supported. That little dialogue that we click OK on before an app installs says that Nokia does not support the software. Not that I need their approval. At least they let us do what we want and just make us verify that we know that they don't support what we do. |

I seriously don't get why they wouldn't let you do such things as such in the first place.

Re: IPhone: *Thumbs up* for Apple

its all about the "user experience"... |

But now it is wireless! OMG! And attila77, almost any smartphone or PDA from the past five years can use a bluetooth keyboard. And Bluetooth headphones. And Bluetooth networking. But the iPhone has "the most advanced mobile browser !!!!!11!11!!11!" so I guess Apple decided to leave those out... Still a nice hack though... (even if it was VNC) |
Re: IPhone: *Thumbs up* for Apple
Apple is a ******ed company. They take the most illogical approaches to user interaction just to be different. Steve Jobs pokes fun at the stylus and says its a thing of the past but then you see a 3rd party stylus comes out and everyone is like "AWESOME OMG!!1111 iphone IZ DA BEST!!" Then you have apple mice and trackpads on their laptops with only 1 button. Apple just hates doing what others do for no good reason. The laptops have stupid gestures for right clicking instead of just adding a second button. I don't want to perform some kind of damn sign language on my trackpad just to right click.
And that is my rant :D |
