Hands on impressions on the iPhone 4G are starting to come in from different sources.

Engadget:
● As we said, it’s shockingly thin.
● The screen is truly outrageous — you basically cannot see pixels on it. We’re not being hyperbolic when we say it’s easily the best looking mobile phone screen we’ve ever laid eyes on.
● The build quality is really solid. The home button feels much snappier, and on the whole it just feel like a tightly-packed device, but it’s not heavy.
● The side buttons are really nice and clicky.
● iOS 4 is very familiar — there’s not a lot added to fit and finish Read more…

Apple Updates Front Page With iPhone 4 Detailed Info

June 07, 2010 :: Posted by - SoSly :: Category - News

Apple has updated its website with all of the iPhone 4 information you’ll need, including official stats for the device, lots of information about features and hardware, and the video showing off iMovie, FaceTime, and all of the other new software announced today.

Our two word review? “It’s purdy.” The iPhone, the video, all of it. Apple employees are effusive, as usual, and “Retina Display” and “optical lamination” is the new “magical and revolutionary” — leave it to Apple to make a display that’s so good, our eyes can’t even see all of the pixels in it.

But seriously, iPhone 4 already looks like a hit, and we haven’t even actually seen the device yet. It’ll be on preorder on June 15th, and out on June 24th.

iWork Coming To iPhone??

June 07, 2010 :: Posted by - SoSly :: Category - News

Looking for more good news on the iPhone 4 front? Our eagle-eyed tipster iJcaP points out something that MacRumors also noted: on the iPhone 4 features page for Mail, a screenshot at the bottom lets a fairly large cat out of the bag. The picture shows an option to open a Keynote file… in Keynote. That, of course, implies a version of the iWork suite for the iPhone — currently only available for the iPad.

Screenshot mixup, or true vision of the future? Sure would be another nice thing to have for the iOS 4 launch and iPhone 4 availability, dontcha think?
