Your Questions About Tomtom Iphone Cameras

7 Reasons Why the New iPhone 3G Sucks
1. Too Expensive to Own
Apple and AT&T may have shaved a couple of hundred dollars off the price but they will more than make up for it in monthly fees. If you take into account the regular monthly fee, the data fee, the text message fee which used to be free, and the $99 annual mobileme fee you could end up spending over $1,000 a year to own an iPhone, that’s 200 gallons of $5.00 gas.
2. Can’t Use the GPS like a GPS
Forget about getting turn-by-turn voice directions in your car from the new iPhone 3G. The iPhone SDK makes it pretty clear it’s not allowed, “Applications may not be designed or marketed for real time guidance.” Yes it will superimpose your position on a Google map, or show you the closest pizzeria but what about getting real-time route guidance? There’s a rumor that TomTom may be developing a guidance application but you have to wonder how they’ll get it past the Apple police.
3. Can’t Tether the iPhone to Your Laptop
Want to save $60 per month for a 3G card for your laptop and use the iPhone instead? Not going to happen – not allowed. Although there are plenty of phones, including AT&T’s Tilt, that will allow you to use your 3G phone as a high speed modem for your laptop, the iPhone won’t be one of them so you can add the cost of a 3G card for your laptop at $720 a year to your total cost of ownership.
4. Still No Cut and Paste
Cut and Paste has been around on Apple computers since the earliest Mac Plus computers. What’s the big problem with implementing it on iPhones? Why is cut and paste so important? Suppose you’re browsing a web site and want to capture some text or a URL, or someone sent you an email and you want to grab some text from it and send to someone else. Not possible on an iPhone. Speaking of email, where’s the spell checker? Predictive typing is fine but spell checkers are everywhere else but here.
5. Wimpy 2 MP Camera
In the world of 5 MP Smartphones and 10 MP point and shoot cameras why is the iPhone still stuck with a measly 2 MP? That’s so 2003. While we’re at it how come we can’t record video, afraid the non-existent SD card might fill up? The iPhone should be able to stream video by now.
6. No Stereo Bluetooth
We thought the iPhone was supposed to be part iPod. At least they fixed the recessed headphone jack flaw (and called it a new feature) but the A2DP stereo Bluetooth standard has been around for a while and is missing from the iPhone.
7. The List Goes On
Still no Flash player for rich media content (what grudge does Steve Jobs hold against Adobe). Still can’t send pictures in MMS messages, still no native voice dialing, no mobile TV, no replaceable battery, no flash memory card, and on and on.
AT&T: iPhone Sucks, Buy a BlackBerry
July 16, 2008 in AT&T, Apple

An AT&T Regional Manager recently put together a 5 page document outlining exactly why the iPhone 3G sucks compared to any BlackBerry and Windows Mobile phones. The document was SUPPOSED to be internal but when an AT&T mall employee used them as “flyers”, convincing customers OUT of the iPhone, we’re sure a few jobs are going to be lost.

Among the documents was a page titled Top 10 Reasons Why The iPhone is Still No BlackBerry. We’ve listed the reasons below along with an image of the actual document explaining each:

No removeable battery
No video record and no flash
No voice dial
No expandable memory
No MMS
No CDMA
No UMA
No Stereo Bluetooth
No Cut And Paste
The BlackBerry is ADDICTIVE

In your opinion what is the best pda/phone out there for my needs. (other than iphone)?

Hello, I’m looking into possibly getting a new pda phone and an iphone is pretty much out of the question. What I would like it to do (if all of these things are possible).
1. Have full qwerty keyboard
2. Notify me when I recieve an e-mail. Good e-mail integration.
3. Have real GPS (like buying a tomtom) Turn By Turn would be nice.
4. Ability to play music (I don’t need more than about 10-20 songs at a time though.
5. Have microsoft word? (do phones have that?)
6. A really good camera.
7. Good internet surfing capabilities. (quick)
8. Hopefully not $700
9. I will probably drop it pretty often, so if it has a full touch screen it better be durable .
10. Planner with notifications.
11. T-mobile

It doesn’t have to have ALL of these, but I have to have full qwerty, t-mobile (it sux I know), durable, and I would REALLY like turn-by-turn gps.

What is the best travel charger?

Lucky for me I’m headed to Italy for 3 weeks. However unlucky for me as I consider what I’m bringing it amazes me how much room all my electronic stuff will take up and the biggest offender seems to be 7 or 8 chargers or so that I’ll need. Is there a compact travel charging solution out to help me out?

Here’s what I’m bringing:
iPod and iPhone (needs either an iPod charger or a live USB port I can plug the small cable into)
Motorola Razr (needs mini-usb port, 5V)
Nikon D40x (can I charge the camera thru the mini-USB? Otherwise need to charge a priopriatary EL9 battery, 7.4V)
Canon Powershot SD700 (NB-5L, 3.7V)
Panasonic Video Camera PV-GS29 (w/7.9V CGA-DU14U Battery)
DVD Player by Mintek (needs 9V, 2.2A)
TomTom Go 300 GPS (needs 5V, 2A roundy. Unless I can use it’s mini-USB port?)
Does anyone have any experience with the Solio? While I don’t care much about the solar part it seems to have a number of tips and an available USB port for charging.
