More iPhone details for y'all |
Ó
If you haven't had enough iPhone news and details, then we've got some more for you. German Mac site, Macwelt, was able to squeeze in some more iPhone details from Apple. The details ranges from the technical aspects (such as, where would the OS be stored?) to the more shallow bits (could my iTunes songs be used as ringtones?). Well here are some of the bits we have found.
On the issue of where the OS is gonna be stored. The Macwelt article mentioned that the OS would be stored alongside your music, but fret not, because Apple says that it will just occupy one half of a gigabyte. So you still have 3.5 or 7.5 GB room for your pics and music.
Apple would also have the final word as to what software would be installed on the iPhone. Also, you will not be able to purchase some iTunes Store goodies directly from your iPhone. Probably, Apple and Cingular didn't see eye-to-eye about this issue.
Now, the mind bugging question still remains unanswered, "would I be able to use my iTunes song as a ringtone?" The answer my friend, is no. You cannot use them as you alarm clock tones as well. Aww...that's too bad. In the Macwelt interview, they also found out that Apple will not let users use VoIP on the iPhone.
The German site also squeezed this particular info about plugins. Apple says that there will be as many enabled plugins as possible and Flash and Java will be enabled.
Hmm, I don't know about you but I'm still pretty bummed about that iTunes-ringtone tidbit. To read the interview, click on the read-link below for a Google-translated version.

I'm surprised that they left that ringtone feature out, it would have been good to use Itunes songs as ringtones.
Yay!! My first post ever and it's a first post..
so what exactly *does* this thing do for my $600? seems like all the cool stuff got thrown in the same pile the 3g support ended up in...
Yeah, for 600 buck you think this thing would walk your dog. so its just a touch screen phone and it so happens you can play songs using itunes. but where is the heat whell. i don't like clicking through the menu of itunes. and thats makes me mad you can't use itunes as a ring tone. thus again apple you had something going for you but way to screw it up!!!
What kind of OS is this running!? I cant recall any previous mobiles using anywhere NEAR half a gig for the OS alone! WOW
For $600 it should b able to use WiFi for the internet!
600!?$ wow. howw gayy, not even worth it .
apple just keeps digging that hole deeper and deeper.
it has wifi you dode. i dont see what the big deal is...i'm sure some 12 year old japanese kid will figure out how to hack this thing in a month and everybody will have their cake and be able to eat it too.
