iPhone 3GS o.o
| 11:55 am | Also -- a digital compass. |
| 11:55 am | You can also ask "what's playing now?" and it will tell you. Or say "play more songs like this" and a genius playlist will be built. |
| 11:54 am | With the iPhone 3GS, you hold down the home button for a second and a voice control interface is brought up. Simply say things like "Call Scott Forstall" -- if there are more than one entries, it will ask which one you wanted (i.e. home, office, etc) -- or "play The Killers" |
| 11:53 am | There is an API for video too, which allows developers to integrate video capture into their apps. Next -- voice control. |
| 11:52 am | The videos live alongside photos in the same application. You can scrub a video and edit it too. You can share the video right from your iPhone 3GS to YouTube, MobileMe, MMS, and email. |
| 11:51 am | The camera application has a switch that lets you swap between still photo and video mode. 30FPS, VGA with audio, auto-focus, auto-white balance, auto-exposure. |
| 11:50 am | Developers can take advantage of the camera too. But the best thing is -- it also captures video. |
| 11:50 am | Also features tap-to-focus. Tap on the part of the photo you want to focus, and it automatically does so. Automatically handles exposure and white balance. Better low-light sensitivity as well. Also, auto-macro -- as close as 10cm away. |
| 11:49 am | Vastly more pictures on Flickr from iPhones than any other phone. Now featuers 3MP auto-focus camera. |
| 11:48 am | Also has amazing features -- brand new camera. |
| 11:48 am | Supports OpenGL|ES 2.0 -- great for games. Supports 7.2Mbps HSPDA. |
| 11:47 am | 2.1x faster to launch Messages, 2.4x to load SimCity, 3.6x faster to load an Excel attachment, 2.9x faster to load a large website. |
| 11:47 am | No front-facing video camera. The insides are entirely new, but the outside appears the same. |
