Apple's next-gen iPhone also comes equipped with Apple's speedy A4 chip and a gyroscope, which when coupled with the accelerometer, provides 6-axis motion sensing. Six Axis? OK, I picked up my mouse, and demonstrated to myself, rotating it about each of the three(X,Y,Z) Cartesian axis -- no problem. So then I tried to figure out the other three: All I can guess is that they are movement along those prior mentioned ax…

Agh, I redact my previous comment. Angles is right.
Is there any good, sound, technical reason why iOS4 won't run on 1st-gen hardware (iPod and iPhones)? I understand some hardware may be missing (bluetooth on 1st-gen iPods and 3G on 1st-gen iPhones) but the computer that runs the show is pretty much the same as the 2nd-gen ones.
I'm impressed with 24% thinner. After holding an iPod touch for the first time I always wished my iPhone was less bulky.

As a bootstrapped developer I ran OS 4.0 through the first 3 betas, but as noted by apple do so at your own risk. I had some issues with beta 3 so Ive been waiting for an official version, before upgrading to 4.0 again. I just checked developer page and it still says the latest beta 4 well is in still in beta. I guess they release the official version around same time phone comes out?
That's insanely high res. How many pixels would my 15" MBP have at that DPI?
For 321 PPI (which is 5 pixels less than iPhone 4's), it is 4200x2625.
Anyone know when iPhone 4.0 will be available to download. As a bootstrapped developer I ran OS 4.0 through the first 3 betas, but as noted by apple do so at your own risk.

It's a foolish purchase if you do, or if this is your first iPhone. 2Gb is nothing, particularly when they're pushing ads at you, and don't forget the game network is coming.
I'm installing an in dash GPS receive this week that will let me stream Pandora in my car, that's next to useless without unlimited.
Hell a poorly written app could blow through wads of data while you're at the doctor's office and you wouldn't know until too late.
The iPhone (and realistically all phones of this nature) need unlimited plans. AT&T is really screwing the customer here, and Apple as well.
At the very least they should have offered a $50 a month unlimited (or practically unlimited) plan.
They really need to open up the market and get some competition going.
