Ok, I've been on the Apple discussion boards, iTunes 9.0.1 is screwed up.

Other people also complaining that some apps sync, and others just disappear off your phone.

Ok, now to wait for iTunes 9.0.2 . *sigh*

/start rant

Ok, I must be doing something wrong with the new iTunes 9.0.1, cos half the apps I bought from iTunes does not want to sync. WTF is going on with Apple's crap software??

Also, why must every patch for iTunes weigh in at 84MB?? iTunes might be the only reason why I show a middle finger to the iPhone and get something else.

I'm so sick and tired of this.

- Guys,who has compared iRealSms vs biteSMS on Cydia Store...
it looks like they seem to do the same thing...which is is the better option and where...-

- Secondly as the iPhone 3G has no default "satellite status" app like S60 phone,how to you know that the GPS has a lock on and is not using wifi or cell tower triangulation...
How long does it take around for a cold start with A-GPS?
Is they sum App Store or Cydia app which will tell the "satellite status" ?

if it goes on GPS, it has a little satellite image in the status bar

Okay here is my rant...

They are many ppl who diss S60 for a "dated" UI...but lets all not forget that S60 is probably the only smartphone OS that is NOT reliant on a stupid Computer app to work...

I remember way back in the day with my stylish 7610 I had the install file of many apps and I would just BT them to my friends and they would be able to install them then and there & they were dumbfounded...way before "App Stores" came around...

With S60 you can survive perfectly fine with out ANY compulsory PC app...

Rant Over...

PS: I have no issues withe plain iTunes 9 with jb iTouch 2G OS3 & iPhone 3G OS3...

Really not interested in symbian on this forum thread.
 
okay I am not sure if any of you have done this but I just did this morning. i have a gmail account and always used the FETCH every 30min to check my email. Well in the MYBB email this morning there was a link of how to setup your iPhone for REAL push email. and WOW If it is possible to like my iPhone more I do. I was considering getting a Blackberry just so that I can receive my emails when they are sent, but not ANYMORE :D

So if you have not setup your iPhone for REAL push mail with your Gmail account do it now

iRealSMS seems to have more functions than bite SMS. compare them here
http://www.irealsms.com/ and http://www.bitesms.com/
just removed iRealSMS from my OS3.1 phone - did not want to send SMS's - they seem to 'get stuck' on the phone.

Thankfully all is fine with mine - I am not seeing that at all (setup is Windows 7 RTM, iPhone 3G with FW 3.0.1)

TomTom cradle does look really cool. Wonder if it would work with Navigon? Navigon is also bringing out their own cradle next month. It won't have the GPS chip or speaker like the TomTom unit so "should" be a lot cheaper too. It does look really shweet though!! http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=4000692&id=51924150929

The navigon cradle is not bad at all, but the tomtom cradle offers more functionality, so I will wait till that is available.
 
well, tried setting up my gmail on an Exchange accound for Push notifications now, error. Only one Exchange ActiveSync Account can be configured...

I already have an Exchange account...
Apple limiting us ONCE AGAIN!

mmm, I really want to get m hands on it, but it's not worth $80 to me, I'm emigrating to Australia in 4 months, and already have the NAVIGON Australia ipa, so dont really want to spend money on buying this, I'm hoping they will release this release on appulous or some other forum :) I don't want to wait until I am in Aus to check the software out!
