Iphone users. Hello.
*mushes your cheeks* hello there.

Is it worth waiting until June to get one with a compass thing in?
Are you on O2?
The 'free wifi' deal..does that include free/unlimited 3G/HSDPA etc for the contract you're on?
Can you copy and paste yet?
I am very tempted to get one as my current windows blocky HTC TyTn 2 contract's a month away from ending.

For non iphone users, or what's the next gig you plan on going to? I need to get back into seeing live music.

When's the new iPhone coming out?
90nz0's my man on this issue.

June apparently, but the few (current) iphone users I've asked don't really know what's in the new model.

Hopefully there'll be a crackdown on fat people using them.
Just because it'll upset the comfort eaters.

Apparently....
Hardware Stuff
- Compus thingy; before you write that of as a waste of time, think about turn-by-turn navigation on maps, potential TomTom software?
- 32 Gb (at least) model
- 3.2mpx camera with autofocus
- F.M Radio (built in iTrip?)

Software stuff
- Push Notifications: like push email, but for applications like Twitter, Facebook, whatever.
- MMS
- Copy'n'Paste
- Better battery management

All for the sake of waiting a month or soo.

Microsoft are going to anounce something phoen related at E3, probably.

hmm
I'm going to guess it'll be more expensive to get on contract then, I was looking at a 16gb one on contract.

I'll ask in the Apple store then tomorrow, and the O2 shop.

I dont imagine you'll need a compass to go from the local gentlemans convenience to your fridge.

I haven't been to a gig since I moved here.
I miss going to gigs, I used to always go.

You should go to more gigs
That'd solve your issue

it's got a compass
i'm facing south west

do you need to load up itunes to work with it?
because that would be really annoying

my new phone smugness has just about worn off i think

i'm at the waiting for it to break in some way stage

how long did that take?

( spacefish bong!, Tue 12 May 2009, 20:13, archived)

I answered your second question before you even posted it.
I have the gift of Internet Prescience.

Either that or you just copied me. Stinky.

Also ... fuck the ipod compass ... get a proper phone with GPS you great cheese-swinging prancer.
( Dr. Shambolic je suis charlie, Tue 12 May 2009, 19:12, archived)

my current one's got that
and so does the iphone..but compass! I could twitter people telling them I'm facing north! Or west! go west!
( moohalaa, Tue 12 May 2009, 19:13, archived)

Get a backtrack.
Then not only can you tell them you are facing west. You can tell them you are facing them.

I'm a non-iphone user.
I'm seeing Church of Misery on thursday, Electric Wizard on friday, Mastodon in a couple of weeks and maybe Clutch the week after that.
Good times.

Mastodon give excellent spread-legged low-slung rock stance.
I approve of their spread-legged low-slung rock stance.

Me too, we managed to get on the front row for them in December.
The Melvins joined them on stage for a song too.

What the hell is the point in a compass app?
It's not like you'll ever use it. Apple users don't stray too far away from other people. Their smug-cunt levels drop when there's nobody to pay attention to the fact they have an iPhone.
( The Gentleman Bastard waxing lyrical. ©, Tue 12 May 2009, 19:13, archived)

that is exactly why I want one.
Plus I can trade in my current phone, and ipod, and pay for the thing outright.
( moohalaa, Tue 12 May 2009, 19:17, archived)

Hmm, that's a fair point.
As you were.

the compass only works in bright daylight
not worth getting in Britain really. I didn't get it, but that's what the reviews all said.
Get one. I like mine.
