iphone 4 just announced.

[Blueface]

Just picked up the Belkin clear case for the phone at Best Buy.
Looks and works great.
Barely adds any size to the phone and cushions it well. Beats the bumper being sold by Apple and it is very soft material that won't scratch up the phone as the harder cases will, specially when dust particles get caught up in there.

Knowing me, I will forever search for more cases I like but this one is great for now.

This phone is unreal.
Darn glad I waited in line for it today.

Have to add, if you don't have a Magic Mouse for your laptop...........GET IT!!!
Great toy also.

This video was shot on my way home with the 4G. Then edited with the 4G. Music added from 4G. Then posted to YouTube with the 4G. Finally I posted this with the 4G.

Amazing Phone. Whole process including drive took 45 minutes

YouTube's compression makes the video look like ass. The in phone video 720 HD is spot on. It does have the CMOS "jello" effect when not perfectly stable and moving. This was hand held.

How much is the internet service on this baby? $100 a month?

I definitely want to get some kind of skin for mine.
I am bound to drop it.

Carlos, I've been using my otterbox from day one. They are incredible.
I bought Lisa one for on her motorcycle, but she didn't use it regular. Now she does.
We literally tried every cover worth trying, I read all the reviews and tied up a small fortune in cases. The otter box is the best by a longshot.
It does as bulk, but I can roll my phone down the steps all day and it won't get hurt.

The coolest looking covers were the metallic Noel series. Dustin (XXX) said he and Echo got them and they were gorgeous. They were. The only problem was that they killed our reception and our GPS wouldn't work.

I won't ever look for another phone cover. Otter Box is the sh!t.

I have a drawer full of phone cases and gun holsters that serve as a reminder of my searches for fit and fictionality.

[AlohaStyle]

I've had the origina iPhone for over 2.5 years with no case and haven't had any problems. A few very minor scratched on the back and edges but overall it held up more than I expected. I will be taking my chances with the new phone too... I just like the look and size without a case...

I'm still slathering over OS 4.0. I can't imagine how I'd be acting if I had moved to iphone 4.
Congratulations to all you guys, especially Dokk. You've been assimilated!!!

Scott,
The OS 4 is a mess with the 3 and 3G. The phones have actually slowed down a lot.
I think Apple messed up in putting that system on an older phone that was likely really intended for the 4. Or, on the other hand, maybe it was intentional to sell more 4's.
With the iPhone 4, you fly through it, literally. It is so, so fast as compared to the 3 series.
The screen is amazing.
The feel is awesome.

Candidly, regardless of whether one is an Apple fan or not, you cannot help but be awed by this phone if you use it. As Dokk said, truly an incredible device and a testament to Apple's innovativeness when it comes to this type of technology. Love them or hate them, they totally rock. I am just glad as heck I am on the "user" side.

BTW,
Fact Time is a riot.
Awesome to be able to toggle back and forth between front camera and back camera, even while on a conversation.
Truly innovative.

Wife ordered one to replace hers, and I don't know when it's supposed to arrive. Then she said she tried to order one for me, but couldn't, as I want to keep my phone number, so we'll have to go into a store and do that. Evidently, they are going to be out at the local stores until July 2nd. So we'll see how things go next Friday or Saturday or so.

Can't wait to get it.

I remember back when literally wasn't used as gross exaggeration and actually just meant..in a literal manner...or just meant "really" or "actually". But i guess the only constant is change

Myles,
Since you are going to threadjack to teach me English, let me correct you.
When I said you fly through it, literally, there is no error in my ways or usage.
I emphasized "you fly through it", which is the meaning, intent or use of literally.

Here you go:
usage Since some people take sense 2 to be the opposite of sense 1, it has been frequently criticized as a misuse. Instead, the use is pure hyperbole intended to gain emphasis, but it often appears in contexts where no additional emphasis is necessary.

In my case, I felt compelled to emphasize "you fly through it" and hence literally applies.
However, an English teacher I am not and heck if it matters in a discussion about a phone.

Taking the bike for a ride, gonna stop at Bestbuy and look at their cases.

I read about OS 4 sucking on the 3G. I didn't think it was even available for the 3.
Me and Weeze both have the 3Gs. I haven't suffered any slowdown whatsoever. If anything, it's a lot faster. I use the home double click psuedo multitasking feature constantly. When I learned you can swipe the multitask bar and see all the stuff you have used all day, it made things even faster.
I don't have to dig through screens anymore!!!
Today I started putting my crap in folders.
Oh yeah, on the faster...
The camera is so much faster, it literally screams now. I'm happy of it because I send a lot of text pics to Lisa. Lots of little videos, too. The whole camera/video thing has improved dramatically.
I haven't even scratched the surface of allthe new stuff. When I get time, I'll watch some "new features" videos and get educated.
On the screen, I have an ipad. I believe it uses the same glass/resolution.
Even if it doesn't, it's insanely gorgeous HD. I'm looking forward to the OS 4 for the ipad, but it won't be nearly the upgrade it was for my 3Gs, unless they come up with more features.
If there's one thing I'll use, it'll be the ability to use Pandora while I'm reading or surfing.

Jr. has the 3GS and he is the one that told me he was crawling.
Glad to hear yours runs good. He may have had a bad day.

The camera on the 4 is quite fast. Truly a breath of fresh air over the prior version I had. Not sure how the digital zoom looks on the 3G but very sharp on the 4. The HD video and the in camera editing is quite neat also.

3GS is fast for me with iOS4 but battery life has suffered.

Got the 4 on 6/23 and have been loving it ever since. I didn't think the difference between the 3GS and 4 would be so dramatic, but I was wrong. Amazing phone!
