For all the hype about the iPhone and it’s good and innovative features, it also has a bunch of features which are really pretty crap.
First up though, some of the cool features of the iPhone that I like:
- Built in 802.11B/G wi-fi
- Allows data to be pulled over a WLAN instead of over the more expensive mobile/cellphone network
- Multitouch interface
- Pure shiny Apple here, if it really works as well as expected it should make interacting with cellphones much easier
- Hi-res (320×480) screen
- For comparison the Nokia N95 has a 320×240 screen. The iPhone resolution is higher than many Windows PocketPCs
- Safari
- A mobile browser with desktop levels of support for web-standards like XML, CSS and Javascript. It also supports some of the mobile web-standards for backwards compatibility.
- Multimedia support
- It supports a whole load of multimedia formats (MP3, MP4, QuickTime, H.264 etc)
- Very shiny design
- It’s interface is usual Apple shinyness and;
- It’s physical design is rather attractive too.
