    yeah, the touch flow interface (can't remember exactly what it is called) is 2nd to none. That is one reason the phone is so good. I hope they upgrade the resolution though. I imagine they will.

Either way, Apple likes to stay ahead of the competition so I expect them to have a big improvement over the 3gs. The first 2g was pretty fugly. when the 3g came out they made it look 10x better. Of course it will not be anything drastic, but they need to change it. Hopefully they have a decent camera too. Other phones are coming out with 8mp cameras.
        That's what I'm referring to, the touch interface.

            I am pretty sure if not by this fall probably next summer they will come out with a higer resolution screen and a much better camera. Basically they have no choice when a lot of the other smart phones having 8mp cameras and high res screens. Just like I am sure they probably going to have a 1ghz processor too, because basically all smart phones are moving into that direction.

            Same thing with screen size, Iphone too will be forced to have a phone with a 4.1 inch screen or bigger. Considering T-mobiles HTC HD 2 is 4.3, Sprints HTC EVO is 4.3 and Verizon's Shadow will be 4.1 or 4.3.

            Sign of the tech trend. People want bigger screens and faster processors. I am sure we only a few years off from phones being dual core.

            And maybe a decade away from cell phones replacing netbooks all together.

              Does anyone really need anything over 6 megapixels in a phone camera? Pretty sure no one wants to do poster-sized prints from the stuff they take on their phone.

              The best thing they can do to improve the camera is to improve the lens so low-light shots come out crisper.

                I do. That would eliminate me needing a digital camera.

                    Re: iPhone Discussion Thread

                    Ummm yeah I would have to agree.....I been to the photo lab at Walmart, Walgreens and CVS lots of times where it would it be people bringing in their cell phones with over 100 pics from their vacation that they want printed out.

                    One day in particular, it was a couple of weeks before christmas at the Walmart photo lab and it was this older married couple, had to be in their 50s or late 40s. The husband had 200 pics on his cell phone and the wife had 135 on hers from their vacation. They had just came back from Cancun or something like that and they wanted it all printed out.

                    Needless to say when I heard how many pics they had, I left LOL. For I am sure that probably took them a couple of hours and probably a whole photo roll of instant print paper to do.

                    Nowadays I am noticing a good number of people using their cell phones as their main camera that they use. Especially considering a good number of smartphones now allow video recording and with a few allowing HD video recording.

                      You guys are probably right, but there would have to be a TON of significant improvements before I'd feel like I could get rid of my digital camera. They could put a 20-megapixel camera in a phone and it wouldn't matter much because the more important options (to me anyway) are lens quality, shooting modes, etc. which are pretty poor on all phones right now.

                          Agree. I don't pay 4 many apps but I'd pay for a sports text sim.

                            I thought I was the only one who was wondering why the heck this hasn't been released on the phone yet. I'm just longing to try out one for a solid price and great depth. I'd try almost any game.

                              There is a baseball one that dropped like a month ago. It had some bugs, but maybe it has been updated.

                              Was called like Baseball Manager or something like that, do a search and you should find it.
