Its the same as setting up a crackberry for exchange server. Unless....you are just pushing to the BB. Which...was covered by twill.

loved mine, but there is something to be said about the iphone. Although, for the first 2months I HATED THE IPHONE's keyboard/UI. But it was the same from the SDK2/3 to the BB at first.

If they were physical button then yes it would register as three keys at once. But the iphone keyboard only registers the center of what you touch. It also uses the dictionary to predict what key you wanted to push.


Your supposed to spend the first week or two just pecking. press the key and verify before releaseing. After the two of you have got to know each other you can switch to two thumbs. Then just jam as fast as you can. you'd be suprised how fast you can go.

Can the dictionary function be turned off? Because it doesn't work on my friend's iPhone. At least we don't notice any buttons getting larger or smaller.

The buttons on scrren don't change in size. The invisible contact areas do.

Watch this video. I wasn't going to get an iphone until I watched this on launch day and immediately placed my order.

For the record, I'm not an apple fan boi. But I do think they make a pretty good portable music player and phone.

I do have serious gripes about the device. Most of them are related to them being a competitor to microsoft.

actually.... lets correct that.

You're not happy because of the way that the phone syncs, same as my dad and all the other PC owners. Its because on a Mac, you have iphoto and addressbook and and and so everything syncs correctly.


right?
but then again...there are ways around that...and you found that out. haha. lady phister's Mac.
