Hoorah. Just as I was about to go pick one up. I was gonna get a 1TB but now I have to choose between a cheaper 1TB or cough up the money for a 2TB.

Waiting for the UK store to be updated...
I took my iPhone with me on a trip to New York recently. I had data roaming off cos I wanted to avoid the charges, but there were times when I had no wifi and needed Maps. I used about 1MB of data and got charged about £6.00 for it from O2 in the UK.

I avoided phone calls all together and my girlfriend used Skype to call her parents back home (as it was her birthday). It was their first time on Skype and were amazed by the clarity, even just using the built in speakers and mic on our laptops.

It was a pain not having the data access, as there were time I wanted to find shops, look up phone numbers, and generally just be online, but couldn't. Free wifi was hard to find, outside of the nice wifi at the Holiday Inn we stayed at.
It may just be me but AIM (Free) crashed when I try to load the contacts page. I have reinstalled it on the phone but no use. Dunno if its cos I have Exchange contact syncing set up or not.

Anyone else seen this?
I tried the skype test call over wifi. Works very well. I was also able to get a skype call, iPhone to Mac work over EDGE in the UK. It took about 30 seconds before the audio started, but then it was fine, about a 3-4 second delay at most. I was surprised that even worked.

I think O2 might stop that soon.
I have a 2007 Macbook Pro and this update just popped up. Installed and no issues. Woo for my Firewire port, 400 and 800!
Since November 11th, 1.3GB received, 237MB sent, so about 130MB a month (Over EDGE on 1st Gen iPhone)
Regarding the .mod JVC files, you can look at my blog post for another alternative to paying money. ffmpegx works very well on these files.

Anyone else having problems opening links set to open in a new window? Doesn't seem to wanna play nice for me
Just tried the Acid test on various browsers.

Firefox 2.0.0.12 - 52/100

Win for Safari 3.1
Just got the Whistleblower going. Great quality indeed. Hope more gets rolled out sooner rather than later.
Also, be nice to have an iPhone specific page. Its a bit of a hassle selecting days in the Last 7 days section without REALLY zooming in.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I just switched to Sprint from Verizon about three months ago for the Pre. Then I went for the Hero about a week ago. Now, I miss my hardware keyboard and am thinking about switching to the Moment. I am still able to switch back to Verizon if I want and get the Droid when it arrives. Should I just trade up to the Moment when it comes out, see if I like it, and if not switch to the Droid? Or something else entirely? Help!"
