Don't worry, he does this in every Keynote thread, pretty sad really.

Yeah, not at all as sad as someone sperging over a mediocre update for a phone. I've got an iPhone so it's not as if I'm anti-Apple or anti-iPhone, but the lack of perspective if just ridiculous.

QQ more tbh, sorry if I hurt your precious feelings about your precious technology company who-shall-not-be-criticised-for-anything-ever. I'll shut up and let the circle jerking carry on about a 3mp camera and a digital compass.

Where you not being the same way in a thread in consoles earlier today too?
 
Potentially really stupid question here, but with the multitude of other carriers being shown in that slide during the keynote, will we ever see the iPhone sold on a network other than 02 in the UK?

Pro also has backlit keyboard, LED backlight for the screen, SD card slot, FW800, glass multi touchpad and 2hrs extra battery life.

So just a couple of differences then.

My Macbook also as backlit keyboard and glass multi touchpad. So basicly the 13" Macbook Pro as a better screen, SD card slot and FW800 over a Macbook. I would have thought it would have to have better graphics as well to deserve the tittle pro.

EDIT: The L4D2 thing? Sorry but I don't rate FPS on consoles due to the whole auto-aiming aspect, not trolling - just my opinion? Anyway that's not for here.

Basically I'm just disappointed with the extent of the "update", that's all. I like my iPhone (wouldn't have bought one otherwise), I was just hoping for a decent hardware upgrade - OLED screen (this brings massive battery savings), front facing camera would be a boon, maybe slightly smaller form factor or alternative nano version. Instead with the exception of extra RAM pretty much everything new is provided in software which all the iPhones get. It just doesn't seem worthy of people going insane over tbh?

lool. you didnt think it was going to be free did you

bandwidth costs money.

But you could be browsing the web on your iPhone or computer it makes NO difference! Well, unless you use it for doing crazy bandwith things like online gaming or the like.

I have an "unlimited" (500MB/Month :rolleyes: ) data plan for my phone with Vodafone. But I can tether it, sodomize it, do what the hell I like with it so long as I don't use over 500MB. Paying just to link a phone to a computer is horrendous.

So, what is the difference between this data and my unlimited data I get on the iPhone tariff?? Terrible.

That's the trouble with the whole industry's use of the word unlimited when they in fact mean the exact opposite (how is this legal?)

Obviously you're likely to gulp down a lot more with a computer than a phone. I think it might actually be better if they just set a reasonable fixed bandwidth cap per month and let you use it however you like.

You have to remember that mobile operators are so interlinked. For example O2 are part of Telefonica, who also have large holdings in other operators around the world..
