Hardly american thinking, just factual thinking, iphones here are around £200-300ish pounds i think whereas i see notebooks on the tv for around £300-£400.
Would you like a picture of my island so you can check i live in the uk?
Yes Becky but not all of us are as cool as you so we cant do that
And for some reason i havent acctually managed to find any themes which work on my ipod with the new update.
So i found some screenies of the theme i had before my last one, i rather liked this theme, i just found it a bit fiddly to use sometimes.
The theme i had on was an iNav theme... was meant to look like this...
But i went through and customized it for myself, replaced all the icons, made a few background changes, and used a different media player skin...
I never acctually finished customizing this theme though, i posted these screenies up on the ipod touch fans forum and got some interest in it, so i said id finish it and i never did .
I was meant to change the background to a darker one which i tested
But never acctually implemented. I was also meant to add text under each apps icon, and also create a Safari theme to go with the dark nature of things.
Shame i never finished it, it couldl've looked rather good.
Me and my friends were talking about this last night and we think he'll be wearing something like the guy on the right is wearing. But it'll cover EVERYTHING besides his eyes, and itll be black so not see through at all.
Also on the dev team website they have some rules, and i think their important for iPhone users(Although i have no clue what any of it means as im not an iPhone user) so i've pasted it out below.
GOLDEN RULE: If you are using a 3G iPhone with yellowsn0w and rely on yellowsn0w to obtain cellular service, then you should NOT use redsn0w right now. Ultrasn0w (the 3G carrier unlock) is not included with this release and therefore your baseband will be locked and unable to use an operator other than the official one it was bought for. UltraSn0w will be released via APT (cydia and icy) soon. If you have an original iPhone (1st generation) then 3.0 carrier unlock works with this redsn0w release.
Yellowsn0w in its current form will NOT work with the baseband version that is present in the 3.0 update, you will need Ultrasn0w, which will be released sometime soon, Ultrasn0w will work with all iPhone 3G models (but not 3GS), even ones that were previously unlockable, Ultrasn0w (when available) will be released via APT (this means you will be able to get it via Cydia or Icy).
Please read all parts of this post before downloading and using these tools.
Read items 1, 2 and 3 again and again.
At the bottom of this post are the bittorrent files for the latest version of redsn0w.
This app is suitable for the recent 3.0 release
redsn0w will NOT work for the iPhone 3GS.
redsn0w WILL work for Original iPhone (1st Generation), Original iPod touch, iPod touch 2G and the iPhone 3G (not the iPhone 3GS).
To use redsn0w simply upgrade the device in iTunes to firmware version 3.0 and run redsn0w to activate and jailbreak the device (and if you are using an original iPhone 2G, it will unlock it too!)
The price difference between the iPhone 3Gs and your package is £131.93 but the price difference the iPhone 3G and your package is only £34.03
So yes your package may be cheaper but only by 30 odd quid. (Dont bother trying to find a cheaper price for the Notebook and Phone because i can quite easily find an unbelivably cheap iPhone.)
If i saw two people on lets say the bus, one person pulls out a notebook, the other pulls out an iphone, i would be more inclined to say the notebook is more expensive, and that the owner of the notebook is bassicly saying "iWantToShowOffHowRichButStupidIAm"
I care how "sexy" my phone is and im pretty sure ALOT of people care how sexy their phone is. And no you dont wank AT the iphone, but their are quite a few good porn sites optomized for the iPhone.
Thats absolute BS.
Internet: The other day i was at my friends changing everything from wired to wireless and when i had finally set up the wireless i was connected and on safari on my itocuh wayyyy before he was even connected to the internet.
Games: Games for the iPhone/iTouch are made FOR the iPhone and iTouch so when you get them you know they will work.
Games made for PC's are NOT made for the MSI Wind U100. Specifications Of The U100
As you can see the notebook specs are shockingly bad, all its really for is watching videos, listning to music and browsing the internet, i doubt you can get any good games on that, probably solitaire or something like that?
Heres a few comparisons between games for the notebook and how well i guess they would run compared to games as simuler as possible but for the iPhone.
The Sims 3
PC:
- 2.0 GHz P4 processor or equivalent
- 1 GB RAM
- At least 6.5 GB of hard drive space with at least 1 GB additional space for custom content
- 128 MB Video Card with support for Pixel Shader 2.0
I think your notebook would just about run it, i expect graphics on low.
iPhone:
Runs iPhone version of The Sims 3 fine.
Brothers In Arms
PC: Brothers In Arms: Road to Hill 30
- Processor: Pentium III or AMD Athlon 1 GHz (Pentium IV or AMD Athlon 2.5 GHz recommended)
- RAM: 256 MB (1 GB recommended)
- Video Card: 64 MB DirectX 9.0c compliant (128 MB recommended) (see supported list*)
Your notebook could just about run it, not at a fun fps though.
iPhone: Brothers In Arms: Hour Of Heroes
Runs the iPhone version of Brothers In Arms fine.
I would go over more games but im in a rush as i have to go to town now.
Yes but people dont get an iphone just to text and call....
They get it for "quality" and although the iphone isnt amazing amazing quality, that nokia is just shite quality, and the iphone kicks its ass.
I hate people who compare to completely different things, that nokia isnt of amazing quality, isnt nice to look at, probably not nice to touch, youd look like such a fag in public, and doesnt have many feautres besides ringing and texting.
Iphone is good quality, sexy to look at, pretty nice to hold, you look fashionable and public, and has a hell of alot of features!
Yeah sure if you just want to text and call without giving two shniz's about the phone quality and features then go for the crappy Nokia, but if you give a damn then then you would get something better... like the iphone.
As an example your bassicly comparing feet to a car. Your feet still do the job and for much cheaper, but people get a car because its miles better.
Yeah i knew that, thats just the google maps thing, but i meant like a proper tom tom, turn by turn directions, that sexy ladie voice ect ect.
I've just found my bluetooth headset and im trying to connect it to my ipod touch, but my ipod just doesnt seem to find it, its searching bluetooth and just wont find it.
Stupid update
Edit: What i meant to say in the post you quotes was that before my dad got the iphone i always thought it had proper turn by turn gps, but when he got it i realised it didnt, it only had the google maps type.
Double edit: I think my dads reaction pretty much sums this update up "I dont see anything knew". Sure theres spotlight and voice memo, but thats pretty much all there is, theres nothing else that we can really use right now.
The backup doesnt backup your music or apps
It just backups things such as contacts, game info, calander things, layout of your home menu.
Things like photos, videos, music and apps arent backed up.
Whoopsie
The copy/paste is a bit fidly to get used to at first i find.
And i always thought that the iphone always had a tom tom sort of application, thats how i managed to get my dad to buy one, i told him that it had gps so you could use it as a tom tom.
Haha only 800 songs? :P 2016 on my ipod touch and then 10394 on my computer if i wanted more.
Also got 23 videos
59 apps
and STILL 12.8gb left over haha.
Isnt the mipatchfirmware thing for Installous?
And the theme i used was
With a few modifications to it.
It's called iElegance, its in cydia
I like the themes which are nice and simple and dont make everything look CRAZY
Yeah, new update lets us play adhoc games with friends who are close by.
Yeah that sucks a bit
But to be honest i dont mind not being jailbroken for a week or two.
