Awesome!!!! I also can't wait to here that round robin live I missed last week that I'm sure will be a podcast ep
The round robin has been pretty awesome and I gotta(of course other than the iPhone) say the bold was pretty cool
what game is that at the end with the blocks
Gosh, it was almost embarrassing to watch your iPhone reunion... the way you so lovingly touched it... wait!... is that Santa I hear on the roof with a new iPhone for me?... or just the snow sliding off?
The iPhone reins burrito supreme, happy holidays!
Great video! Hey, did you get any of the 2.2 software bugs I've heard like losing WiFi? That's what happened to me when I had the 2.2 software so I downgraded to 2.1. However I am going overseas over the holidays and the google street view can help me NOT get lost. Anyways merry Christmas and a happy new year!
No 2.2 issues here. And welcome back to the iPhone world. I'm sure it won't take long for you to get reacquainted with the easy UI
Excellent video on the iphone. No doubt its the best smart phone out there.
I would have to say the iPhone is the best.
This vids really lighten things up for me. If you're like me you read up and read up that the only sound you hear are the taps of the keyboard, or the click of the mouse. Round Robin is insightful and entertaining...well at least for me
Thanks and keep up the great work!
Welcome back to the iPhone and Merry Christmas.

Thanks for the welcomes backs and the holiday wishes, and here's wishing all y'all well and happy too!
Getting back to the iPhone is just like riding a bike, you might be out of practice, but you certainly didn't forget.
So is it a relief to be back to the iPhone? Anything you miss from the others? Oh yea, and Merry Christmas to all!
I really like the ending. lol. I never realized how much faster the 3G phone worked over the 2G - hardware-wise.
thanx for the review!
Multitasking on a True OS is application independent. The argument is that you want the average user to have a certain "experience" and therefore on Apple's apps are only allowed to multitask. I've seen Safari crash time after time, truly a bad user experience. The argument doesn't hold water.
Is that an argument for or against multitasking?
I.e. Apple's apps crash so often, imagine how bad 3rd party apps would do multitasking?
Or, if Apple's going to let Safari crash like that, they shouldn't care what 3rd parties do?
BTW - does Safari still crash for you under 2.2?
Great video. Thanks for all the hard work on the round Robin. Merry Christmas!!!
Great review.Glad you have your Iphone 3G back and Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas TiPb!
Welcome back!!
Welcome back and merry christmas

Great ending to the video..hah.
the bold IS pretty good
also, maybe I will win in this competition!
I must say i'm sad the round robin is over. I love reading and watching the videos from all of you. great job and looking forward to the next round
I want to see the Smartphone Experts Round Robin links for 2009! The iPhone 4G with copy-and-paste?
I just got my iPhone and now we are talking Iphone nano... wonder how much better that will be. I like a full screen though.
Good contrast with the other phones. But the iPhone has problems with more resource intensive apps as well as the memory management could be better. But I agree its alot more intuitive to use then the other round robin phones.
Nice video.
Great Job, I'm sure your phone missed you.
hehe im sure the phone was happy to get some action ..
Very nice Video. That interface is phenomenal. But still just a fantastic show of gadgetry. I don't want to take anything away from the iPhone, but that's all it has. Some minds just want more.
Wooo! Let's go! I wanna win me some prize-age!
Not a bad phone saw my friend Matt's iPhone. Looks sharp.
I HOPE I WIN
Love the iPhone!! Glad to have you back!!
Nice Vid.
Welcome home.
Well, nothing from macworld except itunes love..
Thanks for the Round Robin. Very funny. Good to see I'm not the only one who likes to play around with Google Streetview, lol.
