At least during the exceedingly BORING demos of sillysoftware like an AP
news app (Yawn)....you can ogle Cali's boobs ooozing around inside the t-
shirt...(c;

Ustream had a rough start, but seems to have smoothed out and the audio is
quite acceptable....except for the blogger clicking away on his keyboard
the mic is mounted on....

Iphone Alley has a ustream audio only stream great for mobiles....no
crapware ads eating your limited 2G iphone bandwidth....

Wall Street isn't so excited.....

AAPL is down over 2.5% half way through the speech.

Watch the stock price while listening to the bullshit.....a little reality
check. Wall Street is listening to every word....

realtime quotes...no delays.

It'll probably crash hard, now that they started playing the corny midi
player.....how awful...

11:39 am With GPS, the iPhone can do tracking. A pulsating dot is moving
across the Google map as a car drives down Lombard street.

11:38 am Data from cell towers, WiFi networks, and now -- GPS.

11:38 am GPS support now integrated into the iPhone.

11:38 am 3G has great battery life on iPhone. 300 hours of standby, 2G
talk-time now has 10 hours (as opposed to 5), 5 hours of 3G talk-time
(most phones only have 3 hour 3G talk time), 5 to 6 hours of high-speed
browsing, 7 hours of video, 24 hours of audio.

11:37 am Now demoing an email download. The email attachment took 5
seconds to download on 3G and 18 seconds on EDGE. 3 seconds on WiFi.

11:36 am 2.8X faster. Approaching WiFi speeds (WiFi scored 17 seconds).
When compared to other 3G phones (Nokia N95 and Treo 750), the iPhone is
36% faster -- and better looking.

11:35 am How does the iPhone 3G tackle the challenges? 3G = faster data
downloads, perfect for Safari and Mail. Comparing download speeds
between 3G and EDGE. 3G finished in 21 seconds. EDGE finished in 59
seconds.

11:33 am Apple has learned so much with the first iPhone. They have
taken everything they've learned and more and created the iPhone 3G.
Even thinner, black plastic back, solid metal buttons, same gorgeous
display, camera, flush headphone jack, and dramatically improved audio.

11:32 am Introducing the iPhone 3G.

Photos and MUCH here:

> 7 hours of video, 24 hours of audio

Question - How long does it take to LOAD 7 hours of video onto it?
Will it STORE 7 hours of video?
How long will the battery last STORING 7 hours of video?

If it had a removeable memory card, those answers would be:
5 seconds
Easy
Infinite. Plugging in a memory card doesn't use battery power.

Not a single word was said of any changes in little details like which
codecs does it support, which new plugins does Safari have on it, etc....

If there had been new, improvements, I'm sure we would have heard about
them, instead of the long string of boring SDK demos.....right?

about 15-20 minutes.

yeah, but you wouldn't want the unreliability of that, plus you'd still
have to spend 15-20 minutes coping it to the memory card, so your idea
is too complicated to make any valid sense.

so they run on fairy dust? interesting. trust me, apple's way is more
efficient. no ore goofing around with old memory cards.

why would you need that info? all that has already been done, just use
Visual Hub or Handbreak if you don't know the codec and it will
automatically covert it to the iPhone or iPod Touch... easy as pie...

nah, it was a wonderful keynote, LOTS of new inventions. stuff like the
pin pointing your friends on google maps with iphones in real time is
very slick... and the whole MobileMe.com stuff is far ahead of anyone in
the market... watch the tour and you'll start to learn about your future.

Oh, come on! When was the last time you had a memory card fail you didn't
crush stupidly. I buy the cheapest ones on the planet (A-card, $59 for
16GB on buy.com) and they work flawlessly!

Unreliable?.....and you have a iPhone with hotglued cables in it?!

What nonsense "convert it". Download it from usenet and PLAY IT....just
like your laptop or desktop.

i'm not saying the cards are, but the "people" trying to manage those
cards are. too much room for error so better to go the full mile and
have the iphone simply sync all data, movies, songs, etc and recharge it
with one simple cable.

no futzing around like people used to do with memory cards, those days
are long gone.

do you even have a cell phone?
