iPhone 4

While every one in Japan is still crazy about iPad, Steve Jobs unveiled iPhone 4 at 2010 WWDC (Apple's worldwide developer conference) on June 7th.

here's a short video about the full specs of it:


Basically the iPhone hardware is getting a major upgrade, I like how it finally allows multi-tasks (but I still hope it will allow flash as well....). The higher-definition iPhone screen is pretty cool as well. The battery life is also extended to 40 % more talk time which is 7 hours talk, 6 hours 3G browsing, 10 hours WiFi browsing, 10 hours of video, 40 hours of music and 300 hours of standby.

But the most amazing feature of new iPhone 4 is the FaceTime (video calling with using both back and front facing camera); however, it is only iPhone 4 to iPhone 4 with WiFi connection, that is people can't use FaceTime to call to the others who don't have iPhone 4.  

It'll be available on June 24th. Are you gonna get one? Are you not gonna get one?
I think Softbank is soon going to get the most cell-phone contracts signed again, beating up docomo and au.

  3. so are you going to get one Sonia? :D

    I have so many friends who wish to own iphone4! Somehow it seems like a marketing strategy to keep rolling out newer better products within a short period of time; making people constantly desire these products thereby increasing sales.

  4. I'm not going to get one...I just received an ipod touch a couple months ago, and just like the others I also have this 2 years contract issue with au >.<

    yeah, Juliet you made a good point :D!
    I went to Labi for window shopping today, and saw a huge amount of people lining up and waiting to "pre-order" iphone4.... I think it's also a marketing strategy to give some extra bonus for these pre-orders, which makes it more attractive. (and increasing softbank's sale again!)
