So I just wanted to share with you guys how I'm personally raping apple. The company I work for provides me with a free iPhone 3gs with unlimited everything. This was before I has my n1 so naturally I loved it and jailbroke it. Since I got.bored of the OS and got the n1 unlocked tmobile, I'm running at&t edge running on it. The phone still runs great and the internet is still very quick for edge, but I wanted it faster. So I'm using my iPhone as a wifi hotspot in my pocket: ) so basically my iPhone caters to my n1 hhahaha. I know this is a pointless post but I thought it was worth sharing: )
lol why didn't u just get the att version of the nexus and pop ur sim card in it?

Yeah that ^
The funny thing is when people pull out their phone and i see that it is an iphone, i basically just laugh and look at them in disgrace. Then, if i care to actually pull out my nexus, they are completely humiliated and shamed.

I hope you don't really do that, it actually sounds kind of rude. I'm surprised people don't look at you like "um.. wth is that guys problem, why did he just randomly burst out laughing?"
obviously i don't just burst out in laughter like a fool, it's more of a grin.

Well, conventional wisdom is that Apple gets a slice of iPhone data usage on AT&T so you're still lining Apple's pockets.
If you want to put it to the man, destroy your iPhone on video and upload it.

Very good point dude and I would be all for it, but yeah it's company owned so yeah not happening. LOL plus this wifi is too nice on my nexus I could careless hoe much money apple gets from my phone, I ain't paying it!
why stop with one iphone...hop on ebay and buy up a dozen broken iphones for cheap...toss all of the devices in a crate with some creative means of destruction and film it
Perhaps set a tickle me elmo doll on fire while he holds your iphone

If someone gets a usable version of 2.1 running on their iPhone before Sprint updates the Hero or Moment, they should just give us all free N1s or Evos and call it a day.

You think he would mind giving us a tutorial on how to boot it? lol
Why can an iPhone dual-boot and a nexus can't? This just makes me mad...
I'm pretty sure iphone os on any android handset is never going to happen, since iphone os isn't open source.
That simple fact is going to make life a whole lot more difficult.
Plus, why would you want it anyway - the OS is the reason I got rid of my iphone (there's nothing wrong with the hardware)!!

use apps. to have it. ha. idk just for the shear fact to prove that it could dual boot something.
and apparently its been able to dual boot since launch... what does it dual boot?
First of all its the first gen iphone. Thats like putting a ferrari badge or a reliant k. Second, Geohot is a douche canoe. He has amazing talent but the arrogance to match it. Third, first gen iphones have been running linux for years, do it on a 3G(s) and i will be inpressed.

legit. but is it just plain linux os or what?
The only other OS I would ever want to see on an Android device would be either Debian or Maemo. Preferably Maemo as it's such an amazing OS and it's completely open source and runs on a full linux kernel.
i would love to see iphone os 3 on the nexus also for the ability to run all those appz and games on our nexus.

Until this latest news the only thing Linux would do on an iphone was boot. There were no touch screen drivers or GUI or anything of the sort. The only interaction with it had to be done from a computer. Even though its on a first gen iphone thats a pretty big achievement.
You get it running on a 3G(s) since it is so easy.

i was reading on another forum that sprint is going to be discontinuing the hero and the moment? is this true? if soo im really ticked considering these phones are less than 10 months old.
i just talked to my friend who works at radio shack and he confirms these phones will be discontinued and not carried for much longer. are there any sprint workers here that can confirm?
I'm trying to make a witty and profound response, but I can't concentrate. Oh mister pit, mister pit, oh mister pitiful.......
yeah it sucks, i bought the damn phone for 500 bucks last october and its already outdated. hows that for some silly ****.
yea i remember staying up late waiting for updates at like 3 in the morning now its pretty empty. thank god to faithful commited devs that keep the hero intresting...... (sigh) i need an evo

id think most users would be pissed right now. i think if they are doing this, it's just to get users to get a droid phone with 4g so we can pay that 'coolness' fee. no reason for you to take offense, this isn't geared towards our small amount of devs here, im talking about sprint/htc. even the damn 1st gen droid got 2.2 and it's about to be discontinued.

I honestly... don't give two ****s. It's the progression of technology. To move with the times, you need to improve with the times. I think it's not bad to discontinue the Hero, but it certainly isn't good either. Hey soul sister, hey that mister mister on the radio, stereo......

The on screen keyboard on the iPhone is better than the one's on the EVO. At least they are for me.
In all honesty, any OS (mobile or otherwise) doesn't stand a chance vs Apple products. Gizmodo has always been very pro Apple and Steve Jobs, as are a lot of their readers. However Android, at the rate its going, should be a monster in a couple years and have the phones to compete with AT&T / Apple
