The #1 Reason Not to Buy an iPhone

I just discovered the #1 reason not to buy an iPhone. Of course there are many which you all know about but this one takes the prize! Reading around some of my favorite pocketpc sites I discovered an article from the Boy Genius Report which provides a review of the iPhone SDK. Further research by developer Robert Balousek into the SDK have revealed an incredible flaw:
"Only one iPhone application can run at a time, and third-party applications never run in the background. This means that when users switch to another application, answer the phone, or check their email, the application they were using quits."
The quote above is pulled from the iPhone Human Interface Guidelines document available on the SDK site. Too bad they don't mention this kind of stuff on the iPhone ad considering multitasking is the whole point of mobile computing. Ridiculous.
Here is the full article: http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2008/03/08/iphone-sdk-honeymoon-over-no-background-processes/

dude what a bag o wa*k. Would concider one but for a change the Microsoft option has a more open and editable os on a wider range of phones. (yer I know thive apple some time but I do get the feeling that this is going the same take over the world direction the ipod toulk)

<points and laughs>
Anyone who pays extra money *per call* to own an iPhone is an idiot.
"But you pay the same for calls as you do on other phones" you say. No. If your telco was not paying apple a slice of your call revenue, they could afford to cut costs. You ARE paying for the privelidge of owning a feature-poor over-hyped piece of junk.
I had to laugh so hard the other day. Someone I know was extolling the virtues of the apple multi-touch interface. I told him to show me multi-touch. He did a gesture with one finger. LOL. Most of them don't even ever use multi-touch on the phone or know what it is and it's the phone's only unique feature.

Why would anyone want to get sucked into buying a stupid fad anyway?
Sure the iphone is "pretty" or something ... and naturally being gadget freaks, most of us will be interested in it at first ... but after doing the proper research it's totally not work it. No MMS, no keyboard ..etc..
I'm sure WM based companies are going to step it up a notch and as soon as WM 7 is released, its going to completely slaughter the iphone.

There should be a specific thread or forum on why you shouldn't buy an Iphone. My coworker (sex withheld, lol) was show-boating her iphone to everyone. Once she dangled that expensive piece of hardware in front of me, I told her that it doesn't send picture messages, no gps, the touch screen keyboard suck (to me and many others I know), the internet is slower than what the commercials show (no 3G), it's so ridiculously expensive, it has it own plan for pete's sake, you can't remove the damn battery, and more memory slot. I also told her (being that we live in miami) to be careful because if and when the weather exceeds 96 degrees, (and it will), kiss your iphone night night, lol.
Forgive me for my run-on sentences

not only that, your apps have to be approved by steve-o because god forbid, you might code something that might bring down the cell networks and you also have to pay a $99 membership a year i think to develop and submit your applications to the itunes store. LOL

Car Mount: Soundgate M2 quick review w/ pics

I just installed the Soundgate M2 car mount. So far, I'm impressed.
I had been looking for a low profile car mount that would work with any phone case.
I took some pictures of how it looks in the car.

Wow like the sleek look. But how does it stay in place? Im guessing you need some type of clip holder? I personally like my phone naked but man this looks pretty rad.

You attach a flat disc either on your phone or case. Size of a quarter coin.
I can't even tell its there.

amazing....
that mount puts your n1 in a perfect location to make EVERYTHING electronic below it obsolete, instantly. ok, the AC is kinda 'portant, but that high dolla nav stuff is shot outta the water by the stuff on the n1.
nice mount. do you have a bluetooth reciever so you can continue to play tunes in the ca r after work ?

I do have a bt dangle, but it isn't perfect. I have handsfree Bluetooth through the factory stereo, but if I have both connected, the stereo "skips" often. So I just connect directly to aux.

Thanks for the review.
Was the discoloration around the M2 from the cleaning agent that comes with it? It seems like a perfect match for me, but according to review from Amazon, the cleaning agent is a bit too strong to discolor the surface.
If you don't mind, I'd love to see a close up of the disk that's attached to the phone/case.

The discoloration from the cleaning agent faded away after I wiped it with a moist paper towel.
There was discoloration on the case too, but it faded away also.

Good lookin setup
Wow thats a good lookin setup. I might have to get one now that i see it.
A 7 series Beemer and a Nexus One, hook me up with a job where you work... haha

Thanks. This was the only placement that didn't block anything else, eg. AC, view,iDrive display.
Oh, its an M5 though, not a 7 series.

Though, mine didn't have pictures. I'm thinkin' I might get it, and use it connected to my Gel case. And, just use it like at all times, and have a separate case when one releases to my liking

Not sure why this mount hasn't been more popular. It even comes with 2 attachments for the phone.

thanks for the pic.
looks like i'll have to find a case for my N1 and get this dock

Nicely done man. I spotted the ///M on the gauges...
Hopefully I can get into another ///M a couple years after finishing law school... I miss my M3.

Nice find. It really looks great and this is going to make the wait VERY difficult for the official one.

Nice car, I actually missed the Nexus One in the pictures trying to figure out the model BMW it was..
I had the V1 radar detector and switched to the Escort 9500CI. You should check it out, it has built in GPS so it knows where all the Food Lion's are and never falses.. But the coolest thing is if you drive on a street everyday, it knows where all the falses are, but if it senses a police radar a mile away it goes crazy because it is a new KA, V1 would give me 1/4 miles warning...
Been looking for a 335I 6MT Sedan for months, can not find the one i want..
As for the mount, I am ordering one today, tired of waiting for Google to finally release one..

Thanks for all the comments.
Only little quirk about it, now that I've used it for a while is because it's attached to a semisoft case, I have to hold the bottom of the phone with my thumb to click on the icons. Otherwise it's solid. No movement even under hard acceleration.
Does the escort have a good K band detection? In my area its still about half k and half Ka.
Good luck on your search

i have a question... i have a 2008 infiniti G35.... My Dashboard dont come out like yours of course. can you put the phone in landscape mode with the dock? cause i want to use the Google Navi.

It all has to do with where you place, and how you orient the disc that attaches to the phone/case

The disc doesnt release from the mount until you twist it well past horizontal, so if you have the phone resting on the dash, then it can stay on landscape mode.
But trying to place the disc at exactly the center of gravity to keep it horizontal without resting on something, would be impossible, especially during times when your car is taking turns or on curves.

Looks like apple is having the same problems as google did with the WIFI there.
You would think that apple would of done something about concidering they came weeks after google and had to of watched their presentation.
And it looks like they won't be able to show some of the key features on the iphone 4... On day one it already gets a black eye.

Move to Off Topic
Respectfully, I don´t think this information is relevant to XDA

Farm ville on iPhone

oh okay orb no problem, xda is a win mob fan site (Me too ) but same time there are some apple fan boys here. This might be useful for them ha ha

It is relevant as most users here are used to phone hardware that is far more advanced than the iPhone.
Not anymore. Yes iPhone OS still sucks and of course there is no hardware keyboard, but the new phones display alone is enough to make me a little jealous. 960x640 makes the 800x480 screen on my Rhodium feel like QVGA. When will WE get display's like this? WinMo obviously never will, and WP7 only supports up to 800x480.
I assume Android could support this resolution, but when? Imagine the HD2's 4.3" display at 960x640! LCD pr0n it would be. HTC needs to get on this quickly.

Wow impressive, Video chat over wi-fi and the app which enables this is FaceTime. Cool.

video chat and the book apps is just bs. On the other hand - the screen, the camera (+LED flash), the processor, and the antenna seem like good innovations. Hate to say it, but... Well done, Apple.

You are right mate

I really hate to sound even a tiny bit pro Apple but what exactly about this new iPhone is fail? Besides the screen size it meets or bests the HD2 in the hardware department. The 960x640 resolution is well beyond anything HTC has produced (or plans to?); considering one of the main perks of our WinMo and Android phones has been the high resolution screens this point alone is pretty important.
Imagine Android hacked onto this new iPhone. Might make it arguably the best non-hardware-keyboard phone out there currently.
Hardware keyboard is still a requirement for me so it is an obvious no go. HTC has some catching up to do now, I do hope they soon announce a new Android phone with as high of a greater a resolution (and screen size, obviously) than the new iPhone.

I agree with MooGoo, further what i have heard is this new iPhone 4G has only 256 MB Ram and dont know how they though that they are going to do multitasking with that?? Either the Phone will slow down or battery power leak or can't open as many application as on win mob. But who knows may be they have done something innovative for that too.

Hardware seems nice. Software is disappointing though, I was expecting them to more towards the cloud a bit more and maybe cut that iTunes leash.

The Samsung I9000 Galaxy S is one of the most powerful mobile phones on the market. To use this power to move even more comprehensive, it is with the Power Pack EBB-U10 perfectly matching battery extension. The Samsung I9000 Galaxy S is there simply implanted "and already it has enough power for up to an additional 8.5 hours of talk time or up to 500 hours standby. The testers are, moreover, agreed by the Bank: The Samsung I9000 Galaxy S is found in the top rankings ever before and need no other phone to hide. Example is the good test results with CHIP, and connect online kosten.de.
The google translation starts of fine... it gets all crazy at the end lol. Cool though, not exactly sure how it works...

My translation
The Samsung Galaxy S I9000 is one of the most powerful phones on the market. The Power-Pack EBB-U10 is a perfectly tuned Battery-Enhancement to use this power more comfortable on the go. The Galaxy S easily sits in the case and can use an additional 8,5 hours of voice or 500 hours standby. The testers are troughout impressed by the Galaxy S: it tops every highscore and doesnt have to hide behind other phones. Take the tests from CHIP, connect and online-kosten.de for example.

It works just like every iPhone Batterycase. A battery is built in the case. It connects to the phone via the USB port.

that sounds nice! hopefully it's going to be cheap and available soon

I wonder how much thicker this makes the phone.

The weight is 70 grams. Making the whole thing 188 grams heavy.

iPhone 4 is 137 grams total.
I like the concept and the fact it doubles as a case for the back and sides fo the Galaxy S. It looks very nice and extends the overall usage time of the device. So plus plus in my books.

Here's to hoping it doesn't cost TOO MUCH and that it doesn't hinder the 3.5 socket. I was waiting for an official battery to be released out there, then they announce something better.
This may actually make the phone feel sturdier and protect the back. It can also make a more explosive phone LOL

Galaxy S Power Pack Provides 8.5 Hours of Extra Talk Time

to my knowledge in the top right corner of the korean version of SGS there is a antenna (tv or something). the battcase (and all other hardcases) has therefore at this place a hole for better reception. now if u look to the photo u see through this hole and u see another hole, that one is for the cam.
lets hope u unterstand what i mean...
OT:
anyways, i still don't understand why samsung placed its usb connection in the top left corner ... this is a real hardware design mistake - like the iphone 4 antenna design.

No, it's definetly not. This is a german ad. The german, e.g. international, version doesn't have the antenna.

I agree but unlike the iPhone at least this one isn't service impacting...just an inconvenience

That's a massive hole for a keychain.

It's for the antenna, they're not going to make 2 different kinds just so some can have the hole.

Note 10.1

Hey looking at getting a note 10.1 but had a couple questions.
What is the newest model?
I see the GT has 2 gb ram and the other has 1.
Also I am on the fence between the note 10.1 and windows surface rt. just looking for opinions if you have tried both. I hate reviews because they are one sided (Ipad) and don't give real world opinions.
Thanks

Sent From Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 [N8013]

After a life of serving MS computers it's nice to use a computer that really helps me get stuff done. So I would not get Windows on a tablet until it was absolutely clear that I would not get bogged down in it's maintenance.
RT has few apps, and there are some people who are confused and think it comes with a pen. Let me clear that up if you are one of them.
It does not come with any sort of pen, unlike the note.
If you want Win8 with a pen you will have to look at the Surface pro (around $800???) or the TPT 2 ($1000).

If you really want a surface, my advice would be to sit back and wait for 8-10 weeks and monitor real world issues being identified by early adopters. Early adopters are likely to be MS fanboys who may try to minimize problems, but hopefully some basic problems will be discussed. Personally, I'd look to see if weight and the heat vents along one side make the surface uncomfortable to hold for long periods. Engadet reported 2-days ago that MS admitted that pen support isn't fully integrated across software, including Adobe, so if you want it for graphic work with a pen you will be lacking many features including erasure and pressure sensitivity. (Engadget contacted Adobe and got a non-commital response so they warned readers not to expect a fix anytime soon. This has me wondering if MS blew off traditional partners since they're trying to do hardware, not just software.) If you haven' t looked at detailed pictures, look at Engadet's article on the Surface posted late last week. To try to address the heat generated by stuffing an i5 proccessor in a small tablet form factor, MS has a gap along one side of the tablet seving to vent heat away. I would worry about this being a vulnerability for the physical stability of the tablet if it's held alot as well as making it uncomfortable to hold and making one's hand sweaty and thereby increasing the chance of it being dropped.

I've been disappointed in MS for quite a while. They have an attitude because they've had no real competition in the OS market. I think they were caught sleeping and then went into denial when mobile devices began impacting the consumer PC market. Now they risk upsetting their remaining steady market base, businesses, with a poorly thought out and executed Windows 8. Ballmer needs to retire. They need new and younger management who understand current technology and future trending patterns.
