However i must say that i am very impressed with the serivce you got from O2 over the issue when you raised it with them. I am just about to leave Orange after TEN years, to go to O2. Its a scary prospect but your story gives me a bit of hope that i will be happy with O2. I need the iphone so i can sync business and home machines and be in touch with many different email accounts on the go, as well as forums and web stuff. Nothing compares with the iphone no matter how many poeple and companies seem to try to tell us! Here goes the Iphone and here we go to O2!! Thanks for sharing your experience, i hadn't considered insurance, but will be thinking carefully about that tomorrow when i go for the iphone! Thanks again, Martin Wow, thats a disgrace!

I think the main thing that would make the iPhone come out on top is a company that has Windows Mobile deployed, which uses ActiveSync already, they would have to do very little to switch to the iPhone. One thing I've noticed about the Blackberry (my father has one for work) is that it's still a very business based mobile OS, whereas the iPhone OS is, in my opinion at least, much more user friendly. We will see what happens, I could see RIM developing a BlackBerry client for the iPhone, maybe? Take care Phil,

Just thought I'd mention Blackberry data plans are circa £20 for Corporates and nowhere £60! As regards iPhones on MS Exchange bear in mind mail admins may have to enable a 'service' at the Exchange end, and chances are many won't if they already have a BES (the Blackberry Enterprise Server bolt on to Exchange) as it'l be something else to go wrong. Also, Blackberry is a VERY mature and established product which has a heck of lead, not unlike the old VHS verses Beta story, Vodafone Corporate and 02 have invested millions in Blackberry support depts so there is already a very powerful support infrastructure in place that won't go away any day soon. Blackberries typically have 3-5 day battery life where as I'd be lucky to get day out of my own iPhone if I'm using data, not to mention how much more robust most Blackberries are . Personally I doubt RIM are too worried, most business users are already locked into Blackberry, not unlike the Windows verse Linux choice in commercial environment, at the end of the day it often comes down to support availability and costs rather than bells and whistles. The decision will be taken by IT Directors looking to control supports costs, not some Sales Johny who fancies a new gadget! Something else I can't understand is why people rattle on about 3G, we have various 3G devices and they tend to EAT batteries not mention it's pretty flakey on the move! Edge is fine for email and web browsing, in fact to be honest GPRS is fine for email, look at Blackerry's absurd success, I don't know what percentage of the corporate mobile device they have but I'll bet it's around 70-80%. What would be far more interesting is to see RIM produce a Blackberry Client like they did for the P900 and some of the Nokias, now that WOULD be a serious jaw dropper......

Who have the iPhone, but find it annoying to have the "best mobile device in the world" yet have to use a TomTom or a simalar device to get them from here to there. VoIP on the iPhone would be good, but I think its kind of like why Apple & AT&T didn't include an IM app at launch. (because they wanted people to use SMS more, instead of IM) People would be allways using Skype or other VoIP servies to make calls, and, although nice for long distance, AT&T would never allow it. You said above that it would might be part of the data plan or something. That is a good idea, but knowing Apple, and the fact that they now have control over apps. in the future App. Store, unless Skype makes a direct deal with AT&T, VoIP on an iPhone has an extreamly slim chance of happening. For now, i think that forwarding calls to the phone is enough.

The N95 is a good phone, but its hard to use it for business needs like email with the small keys.

GPS would be awesome, since its touchscreen, and has a big screen for a GPS when on landscape, agree?

The google maps new locate feature is usually pretty good, even without GPS, but real GPS would be better. I really want video.

All consumer electronics in Ireland are more expensive than the UK and US, and the communications network is a virtual monopoly. Broadband cost and availability is terrible, with 1MBps being the standard and 3Mbps the highest domestic speed commonly available in many places-- unless you live outside a town, in which case you can more or less forget anything other than satellite broadband. And there are next to no uncapped domestic broadband services available, so it's no surprise that the iPhone data plans are capped too.

When Apple went to 10.4.11, they changed the USB and Firewire drivers. This caused errors in the data going to the computer. Check posts on apple forums at http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6758138#6758138 I have used a work around on 10.4.11 that put 4.10 USB back onto Tiger. This also works on 10.5.2. The work around can be removed and reapplied. I have recorded 10 hours since and no static or weird echo issues. You can see my studio rig at my photo page. Keep up the great work! Hope this helps.

Good one guys, Dave I had the same thing with SpeedDownLoad, I took a different route I went into TimeMachine and pulled back the previous version, worked a treat! I'd love to know what Mikael King thought about your Carol Smiley conversation! Here's a link to some issues to the 10.5.2 update ! http://www.macfixit.com/ And here's a link to a podcast by the HTGUYS podcast they have a bit of a review of the Apple TV on it, and overall it comes out well. The podcast Number you need is 250 15th Feb 2008. Now as for the slight delay in TimeCapsule it has been reported that Apple has seen unexpected demand as it is listed on the UK store as it's second biggest selling mac product http://www.macworld.co.uk/mac/news/index.cfm?newsid=20416&pagtype=samechandate Now you two don't have kids, I cam assure you sometimes 24 hours is not enough time to watch a film :-). Why does everybody go on about the Drobo let me put it into context it's 330.54 on Amazon add the network sledge at 179.95 and then you have to add your hard drives ! Come on guys there are better options, as you'd have to have at least enough drives to swap out the data and store those drives off site. Phew sorry rant over!

I would say that you guys could do a few Podcasts on how best to use these apps, I'm thinking in particular Pixelmator and Speeddownload, but hey any of them would be a good idea. Even you only have one or two of these apps the price is great and you can of donate those apps you have already to someone else! Cool guys I can recommend it.
