I wonder if they can just (basically) compile existing OSX apps for whatever cpu is runs with a new NIB from interface builder? Seems rad!

I suspect GMail won't be too far behind.

Does it do video chat? iChat?

i am interested in what cpu is in this... if it's intel then they must be doing some mad shit re: battery

okay well usually with a fucking WEB BROWSER like SAFARI you can get to other mail services
Yeh, but this Mail app looks like it's integrated with the rest of the phone/contacts/IM etc.

10:21 am crowd impressed

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:22 (seventeen years ago) link

Why only 2 megapixel? Phones are in the 3+ range these days.

I wonder how addressable the docking port is? I could easily see something putting together a GPS module for this (esp. with the rumored GPS services in Leopard)

― Elvis Telecom (Chris Barrus), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:22 (seventeen years ago) link

already works with gmail--ANY POP or IMAP mail

― you win again, gravity! (tissp), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:22 (seventeen years ago) link

Doesn't intel have decent low power cpus now? or transmeta (unlikely)?

― roc u like a § (ex machina), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:23 (seventeen years ago) link

XScale?

― Ed (dali), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:23 (seventeen years ago) link

Exact quote on e-mail stuff:

10:18am - "It connects to any POP3 or IMAP email -- Yahoo Mail, MS Exchange, Mac Mail... POP3: Gmail, AOL mail, and most ISPs... let's highlight one, Yahoo mail. Today we are announcing Yahoo will offer free push-IMAP email to iPhone customers. This isn't just IMAP, this is push-email, same as a BlackBerry."

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:23 (seventeen years ago) link

Gmail only does POP. Hello out-of-sync email.

Bluetooth. Also I would not be surprised if it had this built in since E911 requires GPS, not just cell id. The hardware is already in the device.

― roc u like a § (ex machina), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:24 (seventeen years ago) link

Maybe Yahoo will get off their fucking ass and make the new Yahoo mail client work with Safari.

― Elvis Telecom (Chris Barrus), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:24 (seventeen years ago) link

maybe pentium-m class stuff. not sure. doubtful about xscale.

Is everyone still waiting for the huge flaw? Or has it come and I missed it?

― === temporary username === (Mark C), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:25 (seventeen years ago) link

No talk about battery life yet.

not to gloat too much, but I think I was pretty OTM:

not that I predicted it all that well!

Shasta, that multitouch shit is off the hook, plus the device profile is amazing.

IT KNOWS WHERE YOU ARE

― you win again, gravity! (tissp), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:27 (seventeen years ago) link

Google Maps rubbish now.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:27 (seventeen years ago) link

the rumor was two separate batteries -- one for ipod/apps, one for phone. curious if that holds true.

― Jams Murphy (ystrickler), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:27 (seventeen years ago) link

10:26 am it knows where you are

DUH.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:27 (seventeen years ago) link

presumably the yahoo account can check other accounts.
Yeh, I'd guess so. Although that's going to be just as out-of-sync as POPing gmail.

They're surely not going to stop people lining up to provide push to it though, are they?

Already with the "other phones are cheaper and better", ha.

Right but how many support them in their native forms as opposed to as a special app (as google's are)

― roc u like a § (ex machina), Tuesday, 9 January 2007 18:28 (seventeen years ago) link

Google maps has always been rubbish, the cartography is absolutely dire.

I have this, sort of, on my blackberry, and it's not that bad.

Mr. Shasta you also did not believe that the playstation 3 was going to tank like the overpriced piece of shit it is. Who cares about phone geeks? This is for people who suck at machines.
