Wonder if they're going to implement the multi-tasking feature to the existing 3GS.........

Hey all....

They have named the new software iOS 4. This is available for 3G and 3GS. Some parts may not function on the 3G but may for the 3GS.

See below...

iOS 4 works with iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS and iPhone 3G. Not all features are compatible with all devices. For example, multitasking is available only with iPhone 4 and iPhone 3GS.

Great news, hopefully a Jailbreak for iOS 4 will get released soon :D

[bobonthejob]

[bobonthejob]

Not long to go... 10 days :D

I was going to go with the i phone on my next upgrade in 2 months but now i think im going with the HTC Desire it has flash and is very quick with the new android software.

[bobonthejob]

Dont like android....well i do and dont... i like the simplicity of the iPhone.

I will be going for the open source Symbian ^3 phone Nokia N8 if it ever gets released. 12 megapixel camera, xenon flash, 720p video recording. It has a dual core processor with dedicated graphics. It has a HDMI cable and can play DIVx files out of the box. it has all the same qualitys as the iphone pinch to zoom etc.. The only thing the iphone beats it on is the number of apps. But as symbian ^3 is fully open source and the ovi store does not need to approve any apps, the apps database will rapidly increase. Sadly the timing of this is nokias downfall as its expected to be released in August. Although if it gets put back any further then I will be jumping on the iphone 4 bus also.

I dont know....ive finished liking the Nokias....That era has gone....

Open source symbian sounds interesting..........
