Apple (AAPL) will start selling the white iPhone 4 starting Thursday, the Cupertino company announced today.
The phone, which was delayed by production problems, will be sold at Apple's online and physical stores, AT&T and Verizon stores, and other retailers.
Apple today unveiled the iPad 2, the follow-up to the original iPad it released last April. The iPad 2 features an all-new design along with new features including built-in cameras and a new gyroscope.
At the heart of the iPad 2 is a 1.2GHz dual-core Apple A5 processor, a boost over the 1GHz A4 in the first iPad. Apple says the A5 is two-times faster than the previous processor, and graphics performance is nine times faster.
We've waited and waited, and now Apple and Verizon have made a million dreams come true: the iPhone is coming to Big Red. After talking up his new LTE network a bit, Verizon CEO Lowell McAdam confirmed a CDMA (non-LTE) version of the iPhone 4 is coming to Verizon Wireless next month. Talks started way back in 2008, and the phone has been in testing for a year -- it sounds like they wanted to get this one right. Current Verizon customers will be able to pre-order on Feburary 3rd for the standard $200 price for the 16GB model on a two year agreement, $300 for the 32GB version -- everyone else can order on February 10th (see it compared with AT&T's iPhone 4). Just to clarify and put any wild rumors to bed, the phone is Verizon 3G (EV-DO) only, no 4G data or GSM roaming. It's not a world phone or an AT&T + Verizon phone, it's just a Verizon phone.
Outside of Verizon connectivity, the phone is basically unchanged, although Verizon's CDMA network doesn't support simultaneous voice and data as with the GSM version. It does have the new antenna design we were hearing about last week, but that's just because CMDA requires a different configuration of antennas. (Apple says they didn't go LTE just yet because first-gen chipsets would force unwanted design decisions, and customers want a Verizon device now.) That slight modification also equates to a slight bump in where the volume buttons and mute switch -- a new case might be required. Software-wise the big innovation is five user WiFi hotspot functionality, something that's standard on Android phones, while Apple has kept the iPhone only able to tether directly to one computer.
Check out our full hands-on with the Verizon iPhone right here, and stay tuned -- we've got lots more coming up.
Feel free to discuss your experience with the iPhone 4. Share your thoughts, concerns, tips/advice, tricks, etc.
The new 4 is sick, and I'm hoping to get my hands on my first iPhone. Unfortunately it won't be until November when my contract expires, so I can renew it and get a new phone.

I don't own an iphone ....but that's just nuts...you can't hold it a certain way and apple telling consumers that's its your fault? what?
How the hell are you suppose to hold it? With gloves? Tweezers?
There are two points (one on each side) at the bottom of the phone where the different antennas are split and separated by a small gap. The problem is that if your fingers are right over that gap, they end up acting as a conductor between them and shorting them. To be fair, it's not really a design flaw per se -- these antennas would have to be separated no matter how or where they're situated. It's only a problem because they're on the outside of the phone, and thus exposed to things (like fingers) that could cross them. There's no real way that it could be avoided with external antennas. From what I've read, it's only actually a problem if both gaps are crossed.
Personally, I think that it would be incredibly uncomfortable to hold the phone in such a way that the gaps on both sides would be crossed like that. I've tried, and it just felt unnatural. But that's just me, I guess.
For those who are having problems, a case or a bumper (which is a good idea anyway) should clear it up. So I actually kind of agree with Jobs on this one -- not really an issue.
That being said, I'm trying to run my phone battery all the way down before charging it, and I'm trying to use streaming media to do it, and the signal keeps dropping. I'm pretty sure that's AT&T's crappy network, though, because the phone is reporting five bars of service. I hope that we're not in for another round of AT&T-can't-keep-up-with-the-network-demand issues.

yeah, i thought that my hand positioning was messing with the signal (and im pretty sure it is) but i think its being compounded by bad reception at work. when i used the phone outside the office i didnt notice any significant problems with reception. hard to say because ive been using the phone actively less than 12 hours now. will just have to give it a little more trial and error.

so im thinking maybe i just worse reception at work with this phone. if thats the case, then its something i can live with. if i continue to have poor results when im out and about or at home, then we got a big problem.
i do expect some kind of backlash from steve jobs "avoid holding it that way" response and would think that apple is going to have to address this in the near future in a more useful capacity.
With my media streaming issues, I have the phone just sitting on my desk, and I'm not even touching it. So it's definitely not a problem with how it's being held there.
I did make a couple of calls earlier (to Apple about the yellow spot issue, actually), and didn't have any reception problems whatsoever with those.

there is no reason to fully discharge an iphone's battery before recharging. lithium ion batteries have no memory
You can also recharge a lithium-ion polymer battery whenever convenient, without the full charge or discharge cycle necessary to keep nickel-based batteries at peak performance. (Over time, crystals build up in nickel-based batteries and prevent you from charging them completely, necessitating an inconvenient full discharge.)
Yeah, I know, but I figure what the hell . . . can't hurt.
yeah, but it is a waste of time and literally pointless.
You remind me of my wife. She read the insert for activating the iphone 4 and it says to first fully charge the phone. She asked if I did and I said no and that doesnt matter. She was like "but it says to do it!"
These batteries are nothing like the old batteries where you had to fully discharge and you couldnt just willy nilly throw on a charger.
yeah, but it is a waste of time and literally pointless.
Haha. You severely underestimate the power of sitting at a desk all day with nothing better to do.
To be fair, this was also an exercise to see just how much the battery could take before being depleted. I'm pretty impressed with it, I had to do a lot more with the phone than I normally would do with it in an average day to wear it out. Definitely better than my 3G was, even when it was new.

Heh, actually mine came out of the box reporting a 98% charge, so I figure that they had already fully charged it before boxing it up.
I'm preordering one this weekend. I just confirmed that I can transfer my blackberry service to the iPhone so that's what I'll do. My work pays for my blackberry ($48/month) but the device is in my name (I actually get reimbursed). We get an 18% discount on service from AT&T so the iPhone plan will be roughly $61/month meaning I only have to pay $13/month for this thing. I currently pay $45/month for my crappy Verizon phone that is like 4 years old and doesn't do any sort of data other than the archaic text messages via keypad so this is a definite win for me.
yeah..the battery life IS noticeably better. At my usual phone plug in times the new one really doesnt need it
im at 42% right now. phone has been away from the charger for 8 hours now. so thats pretty good. only made a couple of calls, but have been using apps throughout the day like facebook, words with friends and carcassonne. so it does seem a bit better.

You know I was actually thinking about will it be ok with a case on it? Considering the price tag of that thing, I would want it incased in some sort of protective housing.
