iPhone OS 3.0 is coming, preview on March 17th


Recommended Posts

Yeah, no new hardware until June/July I say. I'll be following liveblogs very closely for this :)

Will it be broadcast live or anything? How is this whole shizno going down?

and more importantly, when'll I get a copy :D

Copy & Paste has been confirmed. No video cam or background apps though.

Kevin Rose saying it's going to be included is hardly "confirmed." He's pretty unreliable when it comes to rumors.

Fortunately Nokia, Motorolla, SE, HTC ect all only release a single phone every few years...

If anything Apple is rather unique in that they do so few updates. No one is forced to update either.

I hope your being sarcastic because SE/Nokia release at least 3 phones.. usually more

Well, he has been wrong on just about every iphone rumor thats came out of his mouth. iPod/Mac stuff is another story.

Maybe his computer informant is more reliable than his iPhone one :rofl: Didn't he say the first gen iPhone would have a slide out keyboard?

Yep. A slide out keyboard and two batteries. One battery for the phone and one for the ipod features.

Copy and paste would be nice, but I hope that 3.0 improves upon battery life, Wi-Fi reception and call quality. There are still times when the call quality just seems to be sub-par, even when compared to cheaper mobile phones.

I just hope they add some stuff in people have been requesting like copy paste, forwarding txts, better app management and MMS.

    • Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.
    • You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?
    • Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
