Your views on iPhone 4

June 11, 2010 3:30pm CST
As you probably all know, the race for the mobile phone throne is a fast and ever changing scenario. At the moment the iPhone is up there with the monoliths of portable technology. However, I have yet to venture into buying anything more extravagant than my beloved four year old Nokia 3310c would you believe it! Now, I do have an iPod touch which I use quite frequently. Primarily for fast internet access when booting up my laptop seems too much of a task and I quite enjoy the features and layout. I feel that £500 plus for a mobile phone seems a lot to ask even for the more well endowed of us, I am of course speaking financially. The updates that have been added to the new iPhone, other than the Samsung Tocco-esque form factor, seem minimal and rather pointless. OK, maybe the new multi-tasking feature would come in handy as quitting each application to run another is irritating. Could they not just have updated the current iPhones to their new OS4 to save a few pennies of the people who do not want a new phone? So, is the iPhone 4 just another money grabbing technique from Apple or is it an accessory that will make ones life significantly easier? Here is your chance to debate and give your views. Have fun and I'll be sure to drop in from time to time. JackO.

i have been using an iPhone 3G for almost 2 years now. and its me de facto gadget for checking fb, emails and twitter. i also recently got hooked to the games. now i'm waiting to upgrade to the new model when it arrives on July 30 here in Asia. I'll surely not be one of the first to get it but hopefully, when everything goes back to normal, i can get one in August.

I am very much excited with the all new iPhone. I feel that the new model is a new fresh iPhone leaving the older models much left behind compared to other models which are just very much comparable and the upgrades between all of those phones are not so leaping or that big. My only complain with the iPhone is the notification which is very much obtrusive. Maybe updating it with the next iOS would be great and I am really looking forward for it for the next update after the iOS 4.
