iPhone OS 3.0 is coming, preview on March 17th


Recommended Posts

What! iPhone 1st gen are getting screwed out of A2DP and MMS. Only iPhone 3G Customers will get this. Hopefully a new iPhone comes out so I can upgrade

So you're going to spend even more money on a phone and data plan just for MMS, which Apple decided is only good enough for 3G users?

They said due to hardware they can't allow MMS on the 1st gen

There was mention of Bluetooth. But did they say anything about Bluetooth file transfers (maybe for sending photos, etc)? I know we can use the email option instead, but not everyone's phone can access the web as easily.

All there needs to be now is a new iPhone with a better camera and video capabilities, and I'm sold.

Slightly disappointed about no Flash news with all the other companies showing off the new SDK. I suppose Flash is going to become the new "copy & paste".

Q: Flash? What are you doing?

A: We have no announcements on that topic today. But there are a lot of video streams we can handle. h.264 works great. We're adding HDTV streaming for audio and video. We think there's a lot of great video solutions for a single clip.

what an answer, lol

Wait, let me get this straight... no MMS on 1st Gen, because its different hardware?!?

My old Motorola from 2002 could do MMS. I think my 1st Gen should be able to handle something like that.

Pretty ridiculous they want me to upgrade to the 3G or whatever else comes out just for such a basic feature.

Well, I'm very very happy about this, however I will hold off till 3.0.1, as when 2.0 came out it was STUPID UNSTABLE.

I think most people also agree that an upgrade would be silly this time around, clean install and restore from backups :yes:

Exactly... I might understand stereo bluetooth because it actually deals with hardware but MMS??? Sending a picture to a server!!! C'mon!!!

If you had an iPhone 1st Gen on contract you should have been able to get the 2nd phone by now as the contract would have ended. Wasn't there an upgrade fee or something as-well. I don't know anyone with a 1st gen iPhone at this point they all upgraded to the 3G version by now.

I think the reason for not having MMS on the first iphone is down to it not having 3G and them not being able to reach an agreement with AT&T to do MMS over there 2G Network. Just my opinion based on what Scott said re: Hardware.

    • Password Safe 3.72.0 by Razvan Serea Password Safe is a password database utility. Like many other such products, commercial and otherwise, it stores your passwords in an encrypted file, allowing you to remember only one password (the "safe combination"), instead of all the username/password combinations that you use. Once stored, your user names and passwords are just a few clicks away. Using Password Safe you can organize your passwords using your own customizable references—for example, by user ID, category, web site, or location. You can choose to store all your passwords in a single encrypted master password list (an encrypted password database), or use multiple databases to further organize your passwords (work and home, for example). And with its intuitive interface you will be up and running in minutes. PasswordSafe was originally designed by the renowned security technologist Bruce Schneier and released as a free utility application. Password Safe 3.72.0 changelog: Fixed bugs Improved font scale handling - should resolve font size issues on high resolution displays. GH1749 In the Master Password Setup window, "Show Master Password" is no longer truncated on some displays. GH1092, SF1595 Size and position of main window is now correctly restored on scaled displays. SF1630 Keep password expiry date when both password and password expiry are changed; don't clear a non-recurring expiry when the password's changed. SF1628 Custom values can now be copied to the clipboard in read-only mode via Ctrl-C and right-click->Copy Value. New features GH1196 Dark display mode support: Password Safe now supports the system display mode, as well as setting the mode directly via Manage->Options->Display->Display Mode. This change also updates the general "look & feel" of the app to the current Windows theme. Known limitations: The Date picker and keyboard shortcut controls do not switch to dark theme The Customize Toolbar dialog does not switch to dark theme Custom Field support has been added to the more advanced features: Filters XML and Text import and export Comparison, Sync and Merge databases SF938 Custom field values may now be selected by name and copied via a "Copy Custom Field Value..." submenu in the entry context popup menu. SF936 Notes and Custom fields layout now overlap, selectable by tabs, resulting in a more compact and less cluttered layout. SF935 Autotype: Specifying '\v{name}' in the autotype text will cause the corresponding value to be autotyped.

    • I've got a SoundBlasterX G6 that I use in my streaming setup. Sounds great to me and I've had zero issues with the ancient software package so far in Win11. That G6 has 7.1, Dolby, fully working SPDIF and since it's a USB device it's outside of my rig so I don't have to worry about EMF distortion. Looks like for now this is a pass for me as I think I have better hardware....
