Jobs reportedly acknowledges 3rd party app failure to launch issue
Matthew Miller over at ZDN posts his thoughts on the whole 3rd party app failure to launch debacle.
Quote:
"I actually still see the issue on my original iPhone, upgraded to the version 2.0.1 firmware and the reinstall method seems to work for me most of the time. I returned my iPhone 3G last week because I found it to be less stable than my other S60 and Windows Mobile devices who can handle 3rd party applications much better since they are now mature platforms. It seems that the iPhone update and 3G device were a bit rushed to market or else the testing with 3rd party applications was limited. I do look forward to a stable iPhone experience, but it seems we will have to wait until at least September to see such a device."
On a related issue Mike Temporale of mobilejaw.com has this to say on WinMo 3rd party apps and stability.
Quote:
"In my recent post about stability, I talked about Windows Mobile and how it is a stable platform. The source of all that instability is poorly written 3rd party applications. To help prove my point, I’m taking on the “No Reboot Challenge”. The idea is simple, no more reboots of my phone for any reason and let’s see how long I can go before it starts acting funny or crashing. Furthermore, I won’t be killing or stopping any process’s. I’ll leave that up to Windows Mobile and Microsoft to see if they truly know best when it comes to managing memory on the device. The only applications that I will close are ones that have an Exit option in the menu."
iPhone vs iPhone 3G
Techware Labs has posted up their side by side comparison of the iPhone and iPhone 3G.
Quote:
"So your probably sitting back in your chair wondering “Why would you buy the new iPhone if you already have the old one?” Don’t worry, I’ve asked myself the same question. The lower price of $199 makes the iPhone extremely appealing to impulse buyers, however the additional $10 a month for the 3G iPhone plan cancels out the reduced price. Additionally the price of $199 is only available to those that are eligible for an upgrade, already own the original iPhone, or to those that want to sign up for a new contract. If you are stuck between a rock and a hard place, much like I was, on whether or not to upgrade from the older first generation iPhone to the new one, here’s my advice - don’t do it. The only new features are GPS (not even a real turn-by-turn GPS), and the 3G speeds, which eats up your battery. If I hadn’t signed the 2-year contract already with AT&T, I would go back to the old iPhone and save the $10 a month.”
They seem to do a nice job of making the rundown of the two units, give it a read: iPhone vs iPhone 3G @ Techware Labs
