iPhone 4G found on bar floor

iPhone 4G iPhone HDCould this be the iPhone 4G or iPhone HD? Nobody knows for sure but the rumored iPhone 4G was found on a bar floor in San Jose.

The phone was apparently found on a bar floor in San Jose inside a iPhone 3G case. Details as to whats specs the iPhone 4G has is currently still not clear but what has been seen on the phone includes a front facing camera, 80 GB storage space and a version of iPhone OS not known.

Engadget reports that the device is currently not booting up, but did previously so it looks like it has been bricked remotely.

It is still unclear if this is a production model of the iPhone 4G or if this is a prototype, one thing that is clear is that a Apple employee might be without a job soon.

The iPhone 4G is rumored to launch on 22 June 2010 as this is the date Apple has booked the Yerba Buena Centre for the Arts in San Francisco. The last event Apple held there was the launch of their brand new iPad, they have also launched many other products there in the past.

Got my HTC Hero

HTC Hero

Last week I got the news that I was eligible for an upgrade, at first I wanted to port to Vodacom to get the iPhone as I have played around with a few of them and love it, but after some consideration and a hefty price tag my attention turned toward the HTC Hero or iPhone killer as some say.

It was a mission to get hold of one, as everybody is either out of stock and only expects new stock in the next year or does not get the phone until next year. Lucky for me the guys at Durbanville MTN shop got hold of an HTC Hero in only one day, great service from them, and I picked up my Hero yesterday.

The phone is absolutely superb, I’m loving every aspect of it and can see why people are saying that it’s the iPhone killer. The HTC hero is lightning fast with applications and menus opening instant without any sign of hesitation. A nice feature is the Accelerometer, one example I tested was with Google Maps in street view. Enabling the digital compass feature and physically moving around with the phone in your hand made the street-view move around as if you where standing in the street and looking up, down, left or right.

Out of the box the Android operating system asks you for login details to social networking sites like Facebook, twitter and Flicker and integrates it into your home screens if you would like to. Importing contacts was a breeze specially since I had all my contacts in Gmail, Android just asked me to sync with my GMail account and voila there all my contacts was imported.

The Android market place is also a breeze to operate with all the apps you can think of, 99% of the kind of apps I searched for where free.

The 5 mega-pixel camera of the HTC Hero is also very nice, it takes very high quality images that is sharp and crisp. One downside of the camera is I would have liked a flash, but its not the end of the world.

I’m definitely a Android fan now, and won’t turn back anytime soon. The Hero is sure to give Apple iPhone a run for its money.

If you are due for an upgrade have a look at the Hero, I’m sure you’d like it. I’ll be writing more about Android and Tips and Tricks for the HTC Hero and Android marketplace from now on here.
