flash is battery draining and is proprietary, so it's a dead end long
term.

looks like apple is going the SproutCore route.

also good reading is the register piece, decent info to help you learn
why flash doesn't make sense on handheld devices.

LOL! you do not have a clue. "sign up"? you don't sing up for anything
you idiot.

It should be funny to read the rambles of you and the other jealous
Nokia fanboys as iPhone 2.0 raves come in.

And so is 3G,GPS and other apps. If it had a user replaceable battery those
apps would not be a problem for the battery. You would do just like any
other cell phone user does. Swap it out. Apple being the money sluts they
are prevent that. Yes you can if you have the tools. But not in the field
use.

How long has iTunes been out ? Never Installed it as of yet and never will.

ifixit.com reports the NEW battery is SMALLER than the old battery! The
old battery was 1.4AH and the new battery is 1.1AH....a significant
decline.

you're really missing out.

it's not-unlike saying, "I'll never install a Web Browser, never have
installed one, and never will".

iTunes is GREAT, probably the most important app on the planet of the
last 5 years.

so sad you aren't closing your eyes to such a wonderful new world.

which means the 2.0 components are less battery draining. apple simply
starts with a "base line" for battery usage. then uses the battery that
matches that goal. so it's good the battery is smaller because that
means the electronics are better this year, than last.

That's good logic... ...and my coffee beans must be 33% tastier this year,
since they come in a 12oz bag instead of 1lb. bag like before...

I think it is easier to do it straight from the new iPhone. They use
the same interface as iTunes has in the ITunes store on the phone
except it is dedicated to iphone applications.

Apple is sorry because they included some crap for the unwary that I
would not allowed but hopefully that will quickly shake out.

i thought that too, but went to the iTunes store for something else and
the larger screen and the ability to batch download, then sync makes it
quicker, much quicker.

yeah, there are some weak apps in there, but the reviewing system helps
figure that out... all the Tip calculators is absurd :)
