- Speed, on 04/12/2008, -4/+26Buried for "JesusPhone". I mean, come on, just pretend you don't have Apple's ***** in your mouth when you write an article like this.
- DaffyDuck, on 04/12/2008, -6/+23Still no decent argument = Fail.
- RyeBrye, on 04/12/2008, -1/+17I kind of wish that the iPhone dev team hadn't pointed out how bad the security on the boot loader was for the 1st gen iPhones - because those holes will most definitely be patched for the 3G phones.
I'm definitely interested in the 3G iPhone - but NOT on ATT - skeen07, on 04/12/2008, -0/+15There's no doubt by now that the new iPhone will have 3G.
- LukeBeaumont, on 04/12/2008, -2/+15I will definitely buy the iPhone if it has GPS.
- HolyChimp, on 04/12/2008, -0/+12A Proprietry wireless system that lets them be the sole creators of wireless 360 controllers. PS3 uses bluetooth though.
- 5hocker, on 04/12/2008, -1/+11it also does wordpress!
http://blogs.computerworld.com/iphone_to_get_wordp ... - Speed, on 04/12/2008, -3/+12As a Windows user, please let me be the first to say: STFU.
Also, the 360 doesn't have bluetooth. - solidus636, on 04/12/2008, -0/+9It doesn't use bluetooth. It uses 2.4 GHZ wireless. The PS3 uses bluetooth, as stated above...
- noogiewoo, on 04/12/2008, -1/+10A2DP would be a nice addition. the iPhone should've had it at launch though.
- inactive, on 04/12/2008, -4/+13At last! Having the iPhone with me, able to listen to stuff without cables while I'm running and then quickly check my progress on the screen, in realtime.
- directive0, on 04/12/2008, -1/+10I don't know who I pity more; people who purchase electronics to be trendy, or people who destroy them to try and make some sort of juvenile statement of individuality?
- simplenation, on 04/12/2008, -1/+9good luck getting 3G service in America with another GSM provider
- sark666, on 04/12/2008, -1/+8I've never tried one, but read a bit about the nike+. The nike+ device is an accelerometer, but I read it's somewhat limited in it's readings, in that over long distances it's fine, you'll get a fairly accurate average pace, but if you're one to do sprints, it doesn't reflect your speed change fast enough.
Doesn't the iphone have it's own accelerometer for the tilting? Could it somehow work in tandem with the nike device and maybe be more accurate? Obviously, probably not, it's more than likely just receiving info like a nano would. Just wondered how accurate the accelerometer onboard the iphone would be. Or couldn't it be used on it's own and not even need the nike device? - septicmadman, on 04/12/2008, -1/+8In my neighborhood, I am afraid to run with a pair of shoes that looks like they cost more than $20.
- tomwhughes, on 04/12/2008, -0/+7But I think we can all agree that if Jesus was still alive today, it would be his phone of choice. Can't really see him fireing off email to his fans from a simple blackberry or trio!
- nvisn, on 04/12/2008, -1/+7The HTC Tilt is a sloppy pig excuse for a phone. Windows Mobile is ages behind the everyday useability of the iPhone OS.

//not an apple fanboi - piwy, on 04/12/2008, -0/+6You act like there has never been an update to blackberries, treos or other cellphone in existence well after the first version was out.
- nvisn, on 04/12/2008, -0/+6T-Mobile and AT&T are on different 3G spectrum bands. So back to what simplenation said: good luck
- FatShady, on 04/12/2008, -1/+6Gee. Stereo BT. That's pretty innovative. Way to go, JesusPhone.
- RyeBrye, on 04/12/2008, -2/+7RTFA
- DaffyDuck, on 04/12/2008, -1/+6What are you, 7? Or is that just your mental age?
- SSUK, on 04/12/2008, -0/+5Well damn, how are we going to thwart that iPhone bricking code?
//BRICKED_AND_SIM_LOCKED_STRING BrickedDevice Ignoring request to unlock because we're blocked or bricked - pox05, on 04/12/2008, -0/+4that is the only reason i have stuck with my 8525, i have a bluetooth gps unit and some software maps. if iphone can match that, i am on board!
- starkruzr, on 04/12/2008, -1/+5Obvious troll is obvious.
- HolyChimp, on 04/12/2008, -0/+4No, you're thinking of the iPod Touch, that wouldn't get any of these features anyway. All my updates have been free :D
- HolyChimp, on 04/12/2008, -0/+4I know. iPod + Bluetooth = No Bluetooth headphones?!
- Ukspudnie, on 04/12/2008, -0/+4Americans don't all ready have access to 3G across all networks providers? wtf, We've had it in europe for quite a while, still expensive though..
- Rauby, on 04/12/2008, -2/+5Dugg for Friday bonus.
- pegothejerk, on 04/12/2008, -0/+3you can use cheap running shoes and cut a spot into the foam just big enough for the Nike+ transmitter. Just look at the nike+shoes and put it in the same spot. Only takes an exact-o knife and a couple minutes.
- johnpaul191, on 04/12/2008, -0/+3i have one of those little keyholders that attaches to the laces, and drop the Nike+ sensor there.
- solidus636, on 04/12/2008, -1/+4When the hell did rap music come up before you said anything?...
- deadbaby, on 04/12/2008, -0/+3Good for you friend. Good for you. I'm very happy with my iPhone. I guess we're both happy. Life is good.
- Boeing, on 04/12/2008, -7/+10What about 3G?
- TYEZ, on 04/12/2008, -0/+3GPS = me buying one actually i am waiting for the new release to get one anyways. 32 gig pleaseplease
- diversionmary, on 04/12/2008, -0/+3There are more than two colors, why polarize the issue?
- SSUK, on 04/12/2008, -1/+4Can't tell if this guy's joking... But anyway; The 360 uses a 2.4GHz radio signal for the Xbox 360 controllers, which is kinda funny, 'cause it apparently blocks WiFi (which is also a 2.4GHz radio signal) signals because it's overpowering.
- irgeorge, on 04/12/2008, -0/+3It's always been glass...
- SSUK, on 04/12/2008, -0/+3I wouldn't worry. Thanks to that "PWNAGE" application, all firmware, including 2.0 can be jailbroken and unlocked... Even more of a bitch-slap is that iTunes VERIFIES the firmware, so it can't tell the difference between clean and modified firmware. I would wager that the 3G iPhone will be susceptible to the same vulnerabilities that the current iPhone is open to.
- Jerk, on 04/12/2008, -1/+3There's already a great plugin for managing your wordpress blog from your iPhone.
http://wphoneplugin.org/ - namuh, on 04/12/2008, -6/+8Oh hell YES, it can finally do all the stuff my HTC Tilt can do. Next!
- nvisn, on 04/12/2008, -0/+2AT&T, Verizon and Sprint all have WCDMA 3G
- inactive, on 04/12/2008, -1/+3O, the ignorant & racial traits of some people. Maybe you should come to Auburn and tell a football player that, he might step on you :].
- supersteve, on 04/12/2008, -0/+1damn it just bring it to Canada already
- johnpaul191, on 04/12/2008, -0/+1I've wondered about the sprinting thing, and i think they compensate for that to some degree. When you calibrate it, there is a calibration for running and walking. I am guessing it knows if you are running or walking based on time between footsteps. Does a sprint have a significantly different stride distance than regular running, or jogging? It's all about matching one step to *your* stride distance.
I'm not being a smarty-pants. I'm not super into running from a standpoint of training to be great. I started running as cross training, and I run pretty slowly, but i can do distances (i've done marathons).
If you have a Nano (or if they make it work with the iPhone/Touch), then i suggest giving it a try (or borrow a nano?). The Apple store i bought mine from told me they do NOT charge the open box penalty if you are returning a Nike+, so if it doesn't work for you, you are not even out the $29. I do like the Nike+ website and the ability to work with google maps to draw out some of my running routes and figure out the distance, or an easy way to find a route of a certain distance. I live right near a University, so there are TONS of mapped out routes around me if i just pick a distance range.
I'm pretty sure the accuracy is going to be so-so until there is some sort of GPS integration. I guess that's *possible* with the iPhone some day? - mntbikeracer1, on 04/12/2008, -0/+1Mine pretty accurate within a 1/4 mile for a 6+ mile run. I have no clue why you would do sprints with it? Get a stopwatch that would be easier.
- screwzluse, on 04/12/2008, -0/+1I wouldn't hold your breath for 32GB. I love the GPS and bluetooth headset rumors but I think I recall hearing they were not upgrading the size to 32GB this time around (iPod Touch will stick to 32GB) or something like that. Really, if it came with GPS and 32GB, it would be the easiest decision in the world for me to make. I really hope that what I heard was wrong.
- kbro, on 04/12/2008, -0/+1Imagine a religious scene where a group of people are on their knees, with their hands clasped together in front of them -- worshipping all that is Jesus Christ -- who is the answer to their prayers. Now replace Jesus in the scene with an iPhone.
- FatShady, on 04/12/2008, -1/+2No, it does (or rather, did, I think), but you had to perform some ridiculous number of steps to get it to work, and when it did, it wasn't stereo.
Don't get me wrong - I love my iPhone, but the things it doesn't have make it pretty pathetic in a lot of areas. The moment that Windows Mobile becomes a viable music player, I'm switching back. - irgeorge, on 04/12/2008, -0/+1Wait. What. Where did that come from!? You're an idiot.
