Title: Apple launches the new iPhone
Post by: Gep on January 10, 2007, 10:00:44 AM
Kailangan ko na ibenta ang iPod video ko... grrrrr... :evil:

Sweet, glorious specs of the 11.6 millimeter device (that's frickin' thin, by the way) include a 3.5-inch 480 x 320 touchscreen display with multi-touch support and a proximity sensor to turn off the screen when it's close to your face, 2 megapixel cam, 4GB or 8 GB of storage, Bluetooth 2.0 with EDR and A2DP, WiFi that automatically engages when in range, and quad-band GSM radio with EDGE. Perhaps most amazingly, though, it somehow runs OS X with support for Widgets, Google Maps, and Safari, and iTunes (of course) with CoverFlow out of the gate. A partnership with Yahoo will allow all iPhone customers to hook up with free push IMAP email. Apple quotes 5 hours of battery life for talk or video, with a full 16 hours in music mode -- no word on standby time yet.

Bad news:

- No 3G. We know you know, but still, it hurts man.
- No over the air iTunes Store downloads or WiFi syncing to your host machine.
- No expandable memory.
- No removable battery.
- No Exchange or Office support.

Sigh.

The new Apple iPhone has a 3.5 inch Multi-touch screen with a resolution of 320 x 480 at 160 ppi. The Multi-touch screen works by finger touch, not a stylus and can track multiple fingers moving on and across the screen to perform tasks such as resizing an image. It has a 2.0 megapixel built-in camera and a battery that allows 5 hours of talking, watching videos or browsing the web, and up to 16 hours of listening to music.

The service will be provided by Cingular with Quad-Band (850, 900, 1800, 1900) GSM, EDGE, Bluetooth and WiFi. (No 3G listed in the stats). The actual dimensions of the iPhone are 115 x 61 x 11.6mm, which makes it just slightly thicker than the iPod (thicker than the Nano) and roughly the same dimensions as Cingular’s 8525 for height and width, and weighs 136 grams.

Apple says they will start shipping the iPhone in June of this year after they receive FCC approval, and prices are expected to be $499 for the 4GB model, and $599 for the 8GB.

Not bad :D
