I've had similar problems with google maps in Wollongong, told me I could turn right down a road, but that road has a railway line through it and no crossing (dead end). |

Would that be the same as the paperless office.. Cos we go thru reems of the crap.
Being able to send pics MMS style and being able to send contact details would be worth putting in.
I never use the calendar, but for those that do. Being able to click on the details to phone someone would make it more usefull. And delete the need for a notepad and pencil to be velcro'd to the back of the phone. |

spider man. Apparently over 3g YouTube video bandwidth is significantly less than wifi hence faster streaming.

Wi-Fi Makes Me Tingle

i was in a meeting today, and discovered 2 big issues i never realised (maybe its me, a dumb user).
i had it set to silent, with vibrate on, not a big deal, more so if i bump the switch.
so, sitting in meeting, many incoming calls, phones buzzing away, but i use surepage, usual trick, if i see a call in a meeting, hit reject and it sends it off to the nice answering machine lady(person)..
but, my 3g iphone has no reject button, i can slide to answer, but that isnt fixing my problem. i discovered the power button at the top stops it vibrating, but it still happily rings until the divert no answer 30 seocnds is up and off it goes to surepage.
or am i missing something?
so, thats problem #1,,
problem no#2 has been widely discussed, needed to forward an sms in said meeting to get someone on the outside to do somehitng, and bzzzt.. no luck with that either..
are their any 3rd party app work arounds?

Oh yeah, I haven't had to do that thus far, but that comes up every now and again. Its not something that would be that hard to implement: perhaps just double tap on the message you want to forward. It would be negated if they gave us cut and paste.

There is an way to do it...
Decline a call:
Do one of the following to send a call directly to voicemail.
Press the Sleep/Wake button twice quickly.
Press and hold the mic button on the headset for about two seconds. Two low beeps confirm that the call was declined.
Tap Decline (if iPhone is awake when a call comes in).
From the Users Guide (of iPhone not iPhone 3G).
