iPhone 4

I just read an article about an8 year old punk try steal white collar worker's iPhone while he was waiting at a bus stop in downtown Chicago. He mentioned that this has been happening lately at a busy express commuter stop.
Pathetic story.  Broad daylight and crimes committed from youngsters during the weekday is a common mishap in the area. Do you think Chicago area police officers would be able to easily spot these kids who should be in school.  Unfortunately, it's another typical day in the city.  Alot of criminal activities that seem to be the norm lately. Pretty sad.
As for the iPhone, I'd say try to NOT use them at a bus stop-- geez, everyone please be more alert in public surroundings especially in a big, busy city like, Chicago!
Use common sense. Put your phones away and pay attention to the creeps around you, walking by you, watching you.

iPhone Software Upgrade

The software upgrade, iOS4 for the 3GS phones:

  • will allow my camera to make 5X digital zoom 
  • the video feature allows users to touch the screen and focus during videotaping
In addition to that exciting new features for the 3GS software upgrade (iOS4): 
  • wireless keyboard support via Bluetooth
  • Organize apps into Folders
  • give apps as gifts to friends and family
Their other upgrades also includes better email, multi-tasking without draining the battery life, a spell-checker that works in other apps. 


Although the upgrade will allow iPhone 3GS users to have some of the new amazing technological improvements as the iPhone4 version, I was lured to watch the online video demo, which I'm especially blown away about the video conferencing feature. The video conferencing feature allows me to show someone what I'm looking at by switching the view to focus on me or the what's in front of me. In other words, let's say I am on a video conference with you and I see your face and you see mine, but then I want to show you what I am looking at from across the room. All I have to do is switch the camera view since there are lenses on both sides of the camera.  How cool is that?


Will this feature of the video-conferencing, make me replace my 3GS iPhone?  Hmmm, only time will tell.

iPhone 4G

Again?! Another new iPhone?  It's supposedly exact replica of the proto-type stolen in the bar, a few months ago, remember that news? I always thought that was a planned hoax anyways.

I've seen the pictures of the new iPhone online and so far, I myself, am not that impressed.  It looks boxy and I don't like the side button design.  I like the curvy feel of my iPhone now. New Features such as multi-tasking, 4G, extended battery life, and video conferencing with HD quality?

I am multi-tasking already. I read books using Amazon Kindle application, I read email, play "Words with Friends" and "Chess with Friends", while I answer and talk on the phone.  

In a few days, we 3GS iPhone users will be able to upgrade our software iOS.
