I just wish they had "RT with comments" as an option like Echofon does. So now, how do you reply to someone message while still including their original comment in the tweet?? Echofon makes it so easy, I'm not sure I'll be switching yet.

How you gonna review an app without even trying it out?? Anyway, I downloaded,and after spending some time with it last night and this morning, I can say that it works pretty well. The voice search isn't perfect. It especially had trouble with addresses. But overall,the app works just as good as the Google app. Too bad, it didn't work on your Blackberry or Droid, but on the iPhone it works like advertised and all the reviews in the App Store ...

Wow!!! That's a bold move from Yahoo to be focusing on just the iPhone. So I guess, that's where the money is for them.

You might be right, but it could also mean that since they will support account login-in with YouTube, so they might make it possible to stream those HD videos that are already on YouTube.Or even sync HD movies purchased from iTunes.

That's what I like about the Apple, they keep on updating their current devices and also bringing new ones out. Not all, but most other manufactures, they release a product and move on onto the next/upcoming product and neglecting the current one.

How you gonna like the Pre better when it's not even out yet, and nobody was able to really test it since it's still in beta.And at launch, you won't be able to expand the usability of the phone because their App Store version won't be ready.

What's the point when they don't offer data cards, not even featured phones or smartphones which could benefit the speed that LTE offer.

Wow!! Verizon seems to always find a way to rip their customers for more money. You can find the weather the same way by going through any phones browser; or on the iPhone by downloading that same weatherbug app for FREE.

But the song quality is inferior to the standard used when purchased from a computer. With iTunes, it's the same 256kbps.

in the Article: Apple Enables iTunes Music Downloads Over 3G forum

Good. :D It's actually better than what the other carriers offer since the price remains the same. I always found it weird that the others charge like $1.99-$2.99 for one song, and you gotta re-download the song onto your computer again.

When are they never gonna learn, really? Why can't they do like some of the others or even like the iPhone? Release a true world phone with quadband GSM and triband HSDPA. Nokia keeps on making two seperate models of the same phones; it just makes things more complicated and with more delays. And they wonder why they so behind in America.

NO, because you just won’t get the same experience on the G1 because the screen is not multitouch in order to interact with the map. Also when need to type something, you gotta flip the phone sideways and due to absence of accelerometers,the pictures would stay in portrait mode.

Anyway!!! Back to the real topic... I downloaded this app this morning and it's very slick, smooth rendering of the pictures. Look just like when browsing from a computer. It's app like this one that make the iPhone more superior to all those other copycats that are trying to compete. Thanks Google. :lol:

The power of Apple. :lol: iPhone has a myspace app for a few months now so obviously they rather focus on the new platforms and ignore WinMo which to me has far more users. But not to feel left out, you can always use the mobile/wap version of their site.

Wayyyy overpriced !!!!!!!!!

OMG, are they crazy or what? For that same price, you can get an 8GB iPhone! This phone is just a basic flip phone.

in the Article: Verizon Wireless, Rhapsody, MTV Offer Joint Music Service forum

Wow!! On top of the $15/month, you still gotta pay $1.99 per song if purchased from your phone? And redownload that same song again onto your computer. This is ridiculous, why dont they take cues from Apple. They charge the same $0.99 if purchased from your iPhone and that song is synced to computer whenever you plug it to iTunes. It comes out cheaper and less complicated. No wonder all these companies are trying to play catch-up to Apple ...

They must be joking, right? At that price you can get much better phones on other carriers. The Instinct is $129.99 and not to forget the mighty iPhone will be $199. :D No 3G, this phone is just a POS, imo. Tmobile is just digging their self deeper in the hole when it comes to compete with the other big carriers. :cry: P.S- I just cant for July 11th co come around.

If they do comeback in Q3, I'm sure none of this phones will be included. We all know by now that Tmobile is known and is comfortable at offering low-end to mid-range phones to their customers, specially after that press release yesterday.

That was funny. Btw, who would actually walk in a store and pick that out of all phones available. And $30 for that POS,this must be a joke,right.I wouldn't even take that if given for free.

Oh wow!!! When is Tmobile gonna wake up and realize it's 2008? When will they stop release pretty much the same basic low-end phones specially from Samsung ? No wonder they're so behind the other carriers when it comes to their phone line-ups.

oh please! how good edvo is, when you cant surf the web and talk on the phone simultaneously? HSDPA can do that :lol: also, based on the reviews I read from Engadget and Gizmodo, the web on the Instinct is a joke (they both said it); nothing come close to mobile Safari. I'll admit that the Instinct is the best phone coming from Sprint line-up, but please dont bother comparing it to the iPhone.

You're more than welcomed to join the GSM World so that you can just put your simcard in it and be ready to go, instead of having to wait on a cdma carrier to carry the phone and cripple it with their own stuff. Gotta love the Freedom being offered on GSM networks. 8)

It's not about even bashing.From what I read from other sites, the Thunder might be a touch screened Bold with few updates. Nothing to revolutionary since the OS is still gonna be the same, 4.6 I was just reporting what I read, so while it's a good look for Verizon,it won't be something to be jealous about like some others are saying.

Well they are.What do you say about Visual Voicemail? Let's not even talk about the multi-touch screen.Before, touch screens were just simply made and needed of a stylus ex: Treos,HTC phones. But now look at the Samsung F700,Meizu,LG Prada,the HTC Touch etc..They are all even copying on the whole form factor and look.

This phone packs a lot of features but why in the world they would leave with just usb 1.1,a 65k screen,etc.. :x I guess there's no such thing as THE Perfect Phone. And who knows, maybe AT&T gonna get rid of the front-facing camera just like on the 8525. :evil:

The haters are going crazy on this forum w/ those comments.I can understand their situation but have no pity for them whatsoever. :D Anyway,it's gonna be a long time before we see a manufacturer come out with something leveling or surpassing the Iphone besides something w/ 3G.

I bet you those people are with Verizon and Sprint with those damn cdma phones that are so crippled: BT,ugly UI,mp3 ringtones,unable to use their phones overseas,BREW,unable to buy any unlocked phones,stuck w/ what the carrier offers them,no SIM cards to switch between phones without the carrier knowing, ...
