Posted on Tue - July 3, 2007 iPhone FeverI never intended to buy a first
generation iPhone. Although I was impressed by the potential, I wanted to see
how it worked out before shelling out the six hectobux.
From what I can see, I was right to
wait.
The iPhone is not the all-in-one that I hoped it would be. First and foremost is the fact that I make it a rule to never replace one gizmo with one that does less. Current iPod (admittedly non-video and non-color) has a forty-gigabyte hard drive. At the moment, the best available iPhone can only do 8 gigabytes of storage. So the iPhone means I wouldn't be able to carry all my current music and sound files, much less add any photos, movies, and television shows. I currently use my trusty Palm TX to take notes during meetings, notes that I can then transfer to my computers and search. This is pretty much a deal breaker for me. The iPhone has no way to transfer notes, no Bluetooth keyboard support, and no copy/paste text function. The iPhone surprisingly doesn't support voice memos. The iPhone doesn't do video recording. The iPhone calendar doesn't support To Dos. These are serious shortcomings. |
Hello There
This is my no frills blog to cover all the gadgets and gizmos and technology that makes 21st Century life so exciting. Think of it as a messy set of notes that I keep for myself on all sorts of topics. It's really intended for my personal use, but I will explain sometimes as I go along.
My passion is for Macintosh and other Apple products, but I will use others as needed. If my notes and experiences can help or amuse you, so much the better. Categories
