six-axis motion is on the HTC Wildfire if it's what I think it is. So not that amazing.

It's not on the Wildfire. Six-axis motion is like WiiMotionPlus where it can see not just its angle but where it is in space. So yes, it is pretty amazing.

though you cannot really compare it with anything other than the old iPhone :/

You could start by comparing it to other smartphones?

I'm no Apple fanboy, I am hoping to buy an Android handset in the next couple of weeks but it really gets on my nerves when people say they don't like Apple products just because they are Apple which, forgive me if I am wrong, seems to be exactly what you are doing.

Where :S I didn't say that? I just said it's pretty obvious the battery would rise stats wise by that much, that was figured out ages ago by the plans to enlarge the battery, and you can only really compare the iPhone to another iPhone in terms of performance because the iPhone runs a different OS which will handle things differently. Only hardware can be compared, and the LED light is hardly amazing and the processor really depends on the OS it runs on, like when a Intel Core 2 Duo varies from that on a Mac to a PC.

And I think I'm mistaking six-axis for what Sony called their PS3 controllers, which wasn't as advanced as the Wii remote

So iPhone OS is now called "iOS 4". Hmm

Tom: New iPhone is basically a HTC Evo, ruined.

[GommeInc]

Ewww, iOS is a crap name.

“I’m doing okay — except for these guys who aren’t turning their WiFi off. You know, this is amazing… I grew up with the Jetsons and Star Trek communicators. I grew up dreaming about this stuff…”

Jony: “I did, too — I used to love the optimistic view of the future. And it’s real now, isn’t it?”

OMG APPLE HAVE INVENTED A TOTALLY BRAND NEW AND AWESOME TECHNOLOGY CALLED VIDEO CALLING!!!!!1111

BLOODY HELL. THAT IS AMAZING? THAT IS SUCH NEW TECHNOLOGY. But seriously, I'm disappointed :/

This is better than all the previous video calling devices though because this one only works over Wifi and with other fourth generation iPhones!

stop acting like morons, seriously. It's been done every year with people saying 'OMG ITS SO AWESOME, ITS NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE ON ANY OTHER PHONE BLAH BLAH BLAH' no one gives a crap, its about how they do it, and not that any other phone does it. The people in the room take it too seriously by clapping everytime he announces something but not everyone is actually like that.. Because of the resolution, and the increase in data, they have to talk to the operators about data plans etc because it will increase dramatically.

It makes you wonder why they didnt put in the retina display for the iPad though.. lol

This phone hardly has anything amazing though. Nothings really changed? I'm disappointed in the whole event. It took too long to talk about this bloody iPhone 4. :/
