[IxDA Discuss] iPhone Ads

[Daniel Szuc]

Looks brilliant and very tempted to buy when visiting the US this month.

Will the iPhone work on other networks outside the US? ... Mmmm

Rgds,
Dan (who just made the switch to a MacBook)

 If I'm not mistaken, the GPS is not turned on (yet). It simply provide maps
and directions...much like accessing Google Maps on the web.
What existing phones (in the US) have the GPS turned on? I'd love to buy
Garmin Nuvi, but would rather have something intergrated with my cell phone.
What about peeps outside the US? Better luck there?


Somehow, Real Life tends to interfere. How does the phone know where it is?
