I got a new iPhone. My current iPhone is my second iPhone, as the first one had crackedglass, but Apple replaced it for free on Saturday
( Read more... )
congrats on your beautiful closed platform phone ;) (I might, might get one as soon as someone hacks it and they start selling that 3G model here in the EU)
I hoped I could get that Colloquy interface working with my WM5 dumbphone, still have to figure out what the problem is...
har. it may be closed platform, but it syncs and works in general and is intuitive and I couldn't be much more satisfied by any other phone out there.
you might need to forward ports, that was my problem. otherwise it should work just fine if you follow the directions. granted, it's designed for the iPhone but it's just standard html and whatnot.
at least my newest phone can run dozens of programs. In theory. If they were properly programmed. If they were free. If the platform didn't suck. For a 'simple' phone, the iPhone just rocks. For a power user... the platform is just way too restricted imho. And where's Graffiti? ;)
The directions are hard to fail. My network is easy to fail... in theory, it should be on the same subnet, I can even get mobile *cough* IE *cough* to connect to my mac's webserver. I gave up pretty soon, because it isn't useful. When Colloquy is on, I just walk to my PB to chat. I want this plugin for irssi!
and although im not a fan of the huge number of 3rd party apps to dig through for palm/wm/whatever other mobile OS there is out there, at least the major ones are available.
Even though I MIGHT be inclined to agree with you if there was flash/java/etc. support, right now it really sucks. apple isn't giving 3rd party webdevs with their webapps much of a chance, it's a fucking hassle to manage them even with the special websites, bookmarks, and what have you.
I just want to be able to click on a dinky icon in the menu and have it open up an app that does something, even if it's a webapp just have it launch safari with that address or something. i hate going to safari, digging through bookmarks and then going there.
