iphone update

July 2nd, 2007 · No Comments

I decided to bite the bullet and when activating the iPhone took my T-Mobile number to AT&T. It transferred in about 20 minutes, which was pretty impressive. AOL must cache the routing information for numbers used in their IM forwarding, it took almost two full days for IM forwarding to work again, but now things are working fine. I don’t miss much on the Treo, the keyboard’s getting better. I hate to admit it, but I could type on the Treo while driving one handed, the iPhone should prevent that from happening again… :)

John Gruber makes a great observation about the drag priorities in the UI, the feel is retained when the display can’t keep up. There have only been a few times that I’ve felt like it wasn’t keeping up.

Bluetooth integration with the car is better than the Treo, there was an annoying Treo delay in dialing calls, where people wouldn’t be able to hear you talk until about 10 seconds into the conversation which doesn’t happen with the iPhone…

The ipod adapter I have in the car, VAIS Tech AIC-100, worked fine with the phone, though the phone warned that it wouldn’t. I haven’t tried listening to the ipod and picking up a call, though.

All in all, pretty great so far.
