Synaesthesia Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 pssh, they're rich. They can Jailbreak it like everyone else. I don't know why you feel sorry for them. They're like living in a Hydrogen-powered utopia already.

kinkster Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Despite it being kind of disappointing to hear there won't be any new features I still see it as a good thing for them to be laying the ground work for the next releases of OSX. Wouldn't mind if Microsoft would spend 2 years working on the guts of Windows...

leftlane7 Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Umm according to the 3g Iphone specs it says... Capacity2 8GB or 16GB flash drive Does this mean the drives in these newer phones arent SSD? So plastic casing and flash drives instead of SSD making these phones cheaper?

Ludowing Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 If they're gonna keep these prices here in Italy, I'm in for a brand new iPhone3G! 199$ with a 2-year AT&T $30/month for unlimited UMTS connectivity.... Might sound a lot to you guys, but here in Italy that's cheeeaaaap! Source: Macrumors.com EDIT: ... hm... is it necessary to subscribe a voice option? That would bring the price waay higher... doh!

ChocolateJeff Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 I think the 199$ for every country means 199USD in comparison with whatever other currency. I'm happy the iphone is coming to Canada, I might get one!! but then again.. maybe the prices will drop or memory be increased again and I get screwed over I'll give it 4 months Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/109650-wwdc-2008/page/4/#findComment-777615 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrysaor Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Snow Leopard dramatically reduces the footprint of Mac OS X, making it even more efficient for users, and giving them back valuable hard drive space for their music and photos. That means stripped PPC support most likely. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/109650-wwdc-2008/page/4/#findComment-777759 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLiDE FTW!!1 Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Apple Previews Mac OS X Snow Leopard to Developers SAN FRANCISCO—June 9, 2008—Apple® today previewed Mac OS® X Snow Leopard, which builds on the incredible success of OS X Leopard and is the next major version of the world’s most advanced operating system. Rather than focusing primarily on new features, Snow Leopard will enhance the performance of OS X, set a new standard for quality and lay the foundation for future OS X innovation. Snow Leopard is optimized for multi-core processors, taps into the vast computing power of graphic processing units (GPUs), enables breakthrough amounts of RAM and features a new, modern media platform with QuickTime® X. Snow Leopard includes out-of-the-box support for Microsoft Exchange 2007 and is scheduled to ship in about a year. “We have delivered more than a thousand new features to OS X in just seven years and Snow Leopard lays the foundation for thousands more,” said Bertrand Serlet, Apple’s senior vice president of Software Engineering. “In our continued effort to deliver the best user experience, we hit the pause button on new features to focus on perfecting the world’s most advanced operating system.” Snow Leopard delivers unrivaled support for multi-core processors with a new technology code-named “Grand Central,” making it easy for developers to create programs that take full advantage of the power of multi-core Macs. Snow Leopard further extends support for modern hardware with Open Computing Language (OpenCL), which lets any application tap into the vast gigaflops of GPU computing power previously available only to graphics applications. OpenCL is based on the C programming language and has been proposed as an open standard. Furthering OS X’s lead in 64-bit technology, Snow Leopard raises the software limit on system memory up to a theoretical 16TB of RAM. Using media technology pioneered in OS X iPhone™, Snow Leopard introduces QuickTime X, which optimizes support for modern audio and video formats resulting in extremely efficient media playback. Snow Leopard also includes Safari® with the fastest implementation of JavaScript ever, increasing performance by 53 percent, making Web 2.0 applications feel more responsive.* For the first time, OS X includes native support for Microsoft Exchange 2007 in OS X applications Mail, iCal® and Address Book, making it even easier to integrate Macs into organizations of any size. *Performance will vary based on system configuration, network connection and other factors. Benchmark based on the SunSpider JavaScript Performance test on an iMac® 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo system running Mac OS X Snow Leopard, with 2GB of RAM. http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2008/06/09snowleopard.html Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/109650-wwdc-2008/page/4/#findComment-777777 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mebster Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 I'd much rather pay $199 than £199 for a 8GB iPhone. So I was wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to get an iPhone from the US and register it in the UK with an O2 (the iPhone carrier here) sim card without hacking it at all?

Chrysaor Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=109660 Thats a very early build, things are likely to change as indicated by the official page.

macgirl Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Yes, I believe it could have an option to choose slimmer (without PPC or x86). Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/109650-wwdc-2008/page/4/#findComment-777866 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinkster Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Why are they trying to slim it down? Do I really care about 10GB or so of space? Even on a laptop cutting it by a couple gigs isn't going to make any difference. Unless it makes it boot faster or something. And it seems they've already got the size figured out for iPhone OSX and Apple TV OSX.
