Comments on: iPhone 3.0 Feature Overview While You Wait for the Download http://gigaom.com/mobile/iphone-3-0-feature-list/ Sat, 11 Feb 2012 04:40:28 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Dean http://gigaom.com/mobile/iphone-3-0-feature-list/#comment-420876 Thu, 18 Jun 2009 07:35:04 +0000 http://jkontherun.com/?p=38120#comment-420876 I do love my iPhone, despite not really liking apple. I have done the 3.0 upgrade, although I like the new search and copy & paste. I am unsure how the landscape feature works… other than that it’s okay but not really a revolutionary upgrade. I only wish they would add a pen function so you can sketch and write with a stylus. My touch HD has both finger touch and stylus functions.

You can’t attach files to an email. You could always go quickly to the top of the contacts list by tapping the status bar (where the time is.) You can’t flag emails. For email and calendar the iphone can’t touch a blackberry or even a windows mobile device but the iphone has other advantages.

Until today, I could take the SIM out of my BB and use it in my original iphone with no problems. Today, I upgraded my iPhone to 3.0 and I can no longer use the BB SIM. When I try to open safari or email it says it can’t connect because I don’t have a data plan. This all worked just fine under 2.2.1. If you have an old iPhone that you are using with some other SIM and data plan, don’t upgrade to 3.0! It does still work with wifi as an iPod touch, but I wish I hadn’t made the change.

Looks like the main reason to get the upgrade is cut and paste. Sad, it is still lacking a great deal as a business phone. What I am asking for is pretty basic functionality.

You can do voice notes now though!
And search!

can you forward meeting requests yet ? Or add people to a meeting ? Can you attach items to an email ? Can you go quickly to the top of the list of contacts quickly if you have a lot contacts ?

Can you flag emails?

Those are functions which would be really useful. Otherwise is still lacking behind phones which are 2 years old.

An estimated 3 hours for a 230 MB download? Maybe I’ll pause it and come back tomorrow.

One thing I have learned is that JK on the Run are quite capable of getting excited about any new development across all mobile platforms.

And for that reason, I applaud this site.
