SpaceGhost Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/08/live-from-apples-iphone-os-4-event/ For those that don't want to wait for Apple to post the keynote. Starts at 1pm EDT (10am PDT) Maybe some multitasking finnaly, and if so an even shorter battery life. My big wish is tethering at least to an iPad.

CRed05 Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 I'm sure they will add multi-tasking. Probably wont see flash. I'm excited to see if they pull out something that no-one expected. "4.0 lets you roll it up like a $ bill so that you can snort coke off a hookers ass"....yes, yes, want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"4.0 lets you roll it up like a $ bill so that you can snort coke off a hookers ass"....yes, yes, want. That's more of a third-party app. I'd call it iCoke or iSnort.

unfunnyryan Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 Bluetooth keyboards, and Multitasking! SO far. I thought it was already possible to pair a lot of bluetooth keyboards, even without jailbreak. e: so how much are they charging for this measly upgrade?

SpaceGhost Posted April 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 iPhone is $0 as always I am pretty sure, but they haven't got there yet. Verizon would never be in this. The iPhone keynote will be later in July to show the new iPhone. Verizon's iphone can't go into production until September anyway which makes it available in early 2011.

SpaceGhost Posted April 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 iPhone 3G and 2.5g (1st iPhone) will not run multitasking. The 3GS and later will. iPod touch 3rd gen and later will run multitasking, earlier will not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted April 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 Game center sounds cool, with leader boards and stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1fynz Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 Very cool indeed. Im glad that android is around now to give apple a real competitor in this market. There was no reason to drag their feet so long on multitasking. Ive been holding out for a new handset, as I prefer the metal of the 1st gen to the newer plastic backs, but unless they announce a new one closer to summer I think Ill get the 3GS. Im excited to see where this game center goes, too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTQ B4U Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 I can't believe I actually now follow these threads Nice updates though. Looks like my playing Pandora and using GPS at the same time will work then? Hopefully I can talk and use GPS at the same time? I guess no matter as I have my iPhone and a Company BB.

twistedfocus1647545489 Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 (edited) iPhone 3G and 2.5g (1st iPhone) will not run multitasking. The 3GS and later will. Weak. I missed that part. I understand that its slower, but I assumed that since they claim multitasking makes little impact on resources it would work with my 3G. They may force me to upgrade to a 3Gs or better. I feel like with a new one around the corner I'd be dumb to get a 3Gs now. F'ing Apple. I said I wouldn't let it come to this (continually adopting their "next big thing"). Edited April 8, 2010 by twistedfocus Forgot the s in 3Gs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you are correct. This is a pretty good Update. I really like the auto grouping of apps, called folders. Been wanting that for awhile now. I am thinking of paying the $99 to become a developer and downloading the SDK to my MacBookAir today, to load the 4.0 now. I have and app or two in mind to try to make.

We could use it to make sweet lists of cars with or without turbos. It could also be useful for figuring out who a random blue Hyundai belongs to. Want.

Some really cool stuff. I mean, I have to admit, the iAd portion that is built into the OS and the fact that they have such a HUGE leap forward on apps and vendors over all the competitors, targeting the exact demographics to drive their business like this, I can really see them being the very biggest animal in the smart phone market within the next 1-2 years. Especially here in the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
