    Who, me? Next you'll suggest I don't even run an OS capable of running iTunes.

    Well, if your not an Apple fan, I have no explanation for your ridiculous views on todays smartphones.

    Re: Iphone 4 or Samsung Wave

    I think it doesn't matter if u are left or right handed, most people hold a smartphone with left hand and prod at it with their right!

    Re: Iphone 4 or Samsung Wave

    So I am the only one who uses a smartphone one handed, even when typing (swype). Well sometimes I use the second hand for pinch zoom, but I would prefer if there was a browser with a zoom slider for full single handed operation.

    I would imagine most people use them one handed. Why do you ask?

    Oh, I missed this bit. I would disagree, I think most hold in their hand (which ever is their stronger) and use their thumb. That's kinda the point of the touch interface I think

    Re: Iphone 4 or Samsung Wave

    Given the major design flaw of the iPhone 4 (i.e. you can't make a call if you hold it!!), if you still want Apple, go for the 3GS.

    Of course, unless you think the iPhone problem is a non-issue ...

    Re: Iphone 4 or Samsung Wave

    I think the flaw is probably being overhyped. Someone I know says, yes, at times he can see it drops one bar. Is that really a massive issue? Will it ever mean you can't actually make a call?

    Having said that, I think it's amazing that Apple released with this problem unsolved.

    Re: Iphone 4 or Samsung Wave

    A guy at work just got an iPhone 4, had a good play with it today. The best thing I could say about it is that it feels solid to hold and fairly slim, but the screen wasn't as impressive as I expected, I think because of the size you can't really appreciate the pixel density. It seems fairly fast, but my Desire still feels slicker, and The multi-tasking is not proper as I thought, it's "restricted" multi-tasking.... All in all, not that much of an upgrade from what I could tell!.... and he paid £600 for it sim-free!
