Living with my iPhone has been a real joy. I think I like about 80-90% of it, but it is not quite there to make me toss my SLVR and Treo 680 just yet.
Some more discoveries:
1. According to the message boards, it seems that others have gotten music/video syncing on one machine and syncing calendar/contacts on a PC. I still haven’t gotten this to work. More experimentation required…
2. Where is copy/cut and paste? Geez.
3. I need arrow keys on the keyboard! Trying to make edits by moving the cursor around with your finger is maddening.
4. Personally I hate the auto-complete. It’s wrong a lot of the time and I have to teach myself to look at it constantly to tell it not to insert a word when I hit space.
5. I LOVE THE AUTO SWITCH FROM WIFI TO THE AT&T NETWORK. When I go in my house, the WIFI automatically connects. When I walk into a Starbucks, I auto-connect to T-Mobile. COOL!
6. Browsing on Safari is so cool. It really makes things easier.
7. Need Notes syncing to Outlook. I don’t understand why this wasn’t built in. So strange.
8. Getting faster on the keyboard.
9. I tried out a few widgets. It’s ok for now, but definitely a problem when offline. Also, loading widgets over the EDGE network is totally slow. Forget any heavy AJAX site like Meebo.
10. Definitely need dedicated iPhone apps. Safari based widgets works for some things, but nothing beats dedicated apps on the device.
11. Need MMS!!!! Emailing photos just doesn’t cut it.
I can’t wait for software updates to make this baby work better!
