Does anyone have the URL of this video one can play on an iPhone with no
Flash support? It'd be lots of fun to play it in a loaded ATT store on the
demo iphone and ask the sales wienie "why?".....(c;

I'd also like to email it to someone I know who tells me how much better
his iPhone 3G is than my N800, incessantly...(c;

Life is too short to wait for ATT/iPhone...

That's URL. As mentioned, iPhone plays YouTube videos very
well.

The piece makes a valid point, however. I worked as an
advertising copy writer for the telecommunications industry for many
years, and while they are technically not outright lying, ALL Apple
commercials for the iPhone and for their computers alike, as lovely
and fun as they are, are plainly deceptive.

A friend has a tilt and doing a compare to the iPhone the tilt was faster in
the same place on the same network and to the same website.

Having both devices myself, that very much depends on the site.

Safari is a significantly better browser then Windows Mobile's IE.

On sites designed for a mobile interface (reducing the need to render a
massive page, at least partially taking the browser out of the
equation), on wifi the iPhone is slightly faster, although not by much.

On EDGE, both devices are about on par.

On 3G, the Tilt is faster.

At least here, the difference isn't worth noting in most cases, beyond
that the iPhone's 3G power usage is incredible, whereas the Tilt does
quite well, it's wifi that kills the Tilt's battery and saves the
iPhone.

Weird.
