One of my goals for my blog was to blog every day, which I haven’t, but I am improving! Another one was to not care what the blogosphere is saying. For those who don’t know the blogosphere, it is basically the world of blogs and their voice. They tend to blog all about the same thing, but expressing their own opinion. This is always about something major happening whether it is an earthquake, a breakthrough in like the world on terrorism, or something big happening in the world. In this case, it is the iPhone 4 and their iOS4. That is what I am here to talk about because I thought it is very important.

I want the iPhone 4. That is all.

This blog post is done.

Why are you still reading this shit?

Seriously!

Leave!

Fine, I will talk about it.

All of that above doesn’t work on a blog because you can skip down and all you are thinking is what a fucking moron this guy is…does he think we are that big of an idiot? Doesn’t he know anything? Well, I don’t!

Today, Steve Jobs released his new baby. What isn’t surprising is a lot of the features because most were speculated to happen. We all knew what the hell the iPhone was going to look like because we don’t live under a rock (and for those who do, now you do know what it looks like). I have been reading tech blogs all day to see what the hell everyone was talking about. It truly looks better in every which way, except the camera. The camera is 5 megapixels compared to the Droid Incredible which has 8 megapixels. ZING!

There are over 100 new features, but the main ones are:

• FaceTime, an app for video calls that can use either the front-facing camera or the back-facing camera (WiFi only).
• The screen uses technology Apple calls a Retina Display, which has 326 pixels per inch. That’s four times the number of pixels in the iPhone 3GS, Jobs said. “People haven’t even dreamt of a display like this. Once you use a Retina Display, you can’t go back.”
• The processor is an Apple A4, a small chip that is optimized for power management. This helps the phone get improved battery life: 7 hours of 3G talk, 6 hours of 3G browsing, 10 hours of WiFi browsing, 10 hours of video, 40 hours of music, 300 hours of standby time.
• A 3-axis gyroscopce for mobile gaming — Jobs played a new Jenga-like game to demonstrate this.
• A 5-megapixel camera with digital zoom and a backside illuminated sensor, to improve lighting for photos.
• HD video camera that records 720p at 30 frames per second, with a built-in video editor.
• New operating system: iOS 4. One word, Apple fans: Multitasking. OK, a few more words: folder support, threaded mail, unified inbox and more. iPhone 3G and 3GS users can upgrade on June 21.
• iBooks: Apple’s eBook app is coming to the iPhone. Watch out, Kindle.
• iAds, a new in-app advertising platform.

What does that mean to me?

Well, to be honest, I am annoyed! I have the iPhone 3G. Luckily, I have the unlimited data plan (which they got rid of about a week or so ago), so I am not going ape shit over that. Unfortunately, I don’t get all the features from iOS4 because I have the 3G. That means I have to upgrade or everyone is going to laugh at me for having the 3G. I can’t have old technology because that would be total bullshit. My computer is already behind without 16 Gigs of Ram and no i7 processor. I can’t let me phone be behind too! So, I have to upgrade.

Well, I don’t know when my upgrade freaking is! They supposedly changed it so everyone can basically upgrade unless you were a dumbass and bought a new iPhone 3GS recently…which if you did, just jump off a cliff because you didn’t know the iPhone 4 was coming out. To check if you have an upgrade, go through AT&T. If you have an iPhone, DIAL: *639# I been doing it all day and it says it’s unavailable, but if you get lucky, you might get a golden ticket saying you got an upgrade or saying you are a freaking loser. Although, by upgrading, your contract is extended for 2 years. So, if it is your dream to get the mystical and mythical Verizon iPhone, you might want to try and score a cheap iPhone 4 without the contract. Unlucky for you, it costs like a billion dollars without contract!

Now, I have read a ton of tech blogs and the only thing I have learned that compared to the 3GS, it is 2 grams heavier, which means I am going to get annoyed since my pants already sag from phone and it being heavier isn’t going to help. Also, it doesn’t use a sim card, but actually a micro-sim which means BACK UP YOUR SHIT NOW BEFORE YOU UPGRADE SO YOU DON’T LOSE ANYTHING!

Engadget said when using the device:

• As we said, it’s shockingly thin.
• The screen is truly outrageous — you basically cannot see pixels on it. We’re not being hyperbolic when we say it’s easily the best looking mobile phone screen we’ve ever laid eyes on.
• The build quality is really solid. The home button feels much snappier, and on the whole it just feels like a tightly-packed device, but it’s not heavy.
• The side buttons are really nice and clicky.
• iOS 4 is very familiar — there’s not a lot added to fit and finish.
• The general speed of the whole OS is way snappier. The camera app in particular is noticeably faster — shots get snapped in an instant.

That is more reason to buy it! Plus they use better freaking parts so your screen is stronger and so is the body!

My question is will it beat out the EVO which is a tank of a phone, or will it just fall behind and get owned.

Also, I thought I would mention some things that have pissed me off:

• 3GS people who got their phone at launch get upgrade prices, while 3G people who got their phone beforehand don’t.
• It costs $599 if I don’t have my upgrade which is a shit load of money.
• iMovie costs $5! Full of bullshit!
• 3G doesn’t get multi-tasking means I HAVE to UPGRADE!
• Tethering is only available for those who upgrade their plan which is capped…so that means I am not tethering because I do not want to lose my unlimited data plan and get fucked over when I exceed it.
• Maclife said: “Fingerprints on both sides, sigh.”

Apple did do something right, they created their own case so I don’t have to have these third party fuck-ups create it.

With that, I will leave you with this fail by Apple and Steve Jobs:

Edit:  I found a nice, easy comparison to all the phones.

OH MY GOD! THE IPHONE 4! is a post from: Fat Tony69's Blog

Now you might wonder, why the hell would I delete everything 5 times. Well, I had a great blog, but then it disappeared. Since then, I have slacked on my responsibility. Although, this time I refuse to slack because I like blogging. I might even go video blogging as well (but I don’t want to get ahead of myself yet)!

So let’s get this introduction out of the way because this same thing will be in the about me My name is Tony. I like lamp. My age is irrelevant due to the fact that I like to act based on my mood. Some days, I feel like a old shit and other days I like to act like an immature little shit. I am a fan of all sports such as ballroom dancing and curling. I love reading the news on websites that aren’t related to television networks. I loathe the word love unless talking about my family. My favorite language is English and my least favorite language is Spanish. I own a forum and it is The Best Forum Ever. Besides that, I will talk about my life later on in this blog. I need to keep you reading.

Since I got the introductions out of way, I might as well inform you as to what this blog is about. Well, I want to say everything, but unfortunately, I doubt I’ll ever talk about why the sky is blue, so I’m sorry to all those who care about that. What I will discuss are the random questions everyone is thinking, but never dared to ask out-loud. Along with my shenanigans, I will include professional topics such as what I’m interested in; social media, psychology of the Internet, trending topics, and all that other stuff that sounds so much fun. Besides that, I’m going to talk about random stuff.

Now we have all that out of the way, I can finally write all topics I’ve been collecting on my iPhone. You should see my notes app, it’s filled with things to write about. Also, I forgot to mention this, but I might as well include this now, but I love my iPhone. As you can tell, the theme of this blog is a recreation of the notes app on the iPhone. Ironically, this is where I originally wrote this blog post and where I plan to write most of them.

PS. Expect the worst and the best when reading this blog. ENJOY!

Yours,
