• Multitasking.
• Spell check (like on the iPad).
• Bluetooth keyboard support (again, on the iPad).
• User-defined wallpaper (a jailbreak favorite).
• Tap to focus when recording video, just like with photos, and a 5x digital zoom for the camera.
• Playlist creation and nested playlists.
• App folders for sorting apps! You can even put an app folder in the dock.
• Enhanced Mail! You can have a merged inbox view, switch between inboxes quickly, and sync to more than one Exchange account. There’s also threaded messaging (at last!) and in-app attachment viewing.
• iBooks, just like on iPad, only smaller. You can wirelessly sync books between platforms, a la Kindle.
• Enterprise features, including remote device management and wireless app distribution.
• Game Center. It’s like Xbox Live, but for iPhone games. Includes achievements, leaderboards, and match making. It will be available as a “developer preview,” and out for consumers later this year.

New SDK, available today.

1,500 new APIs.

Background audio (think Pandora).

Background VoIP (think Skype).

Background location data, both with live GPS for backgrounded turn-by-turn, and cell tower-based for lower power draw.

Local notifications. Like push notifications, but sends a notification straight from the app without needing a push notification server, perfect for an alarm, for instance.

Fast app switching. Saves the state of an app and resumes it from where you left off, without dwelling in memory.

iAd. Apple says it’s for keeping “free apps free.” The ads keep you in the app, while also taking over the screen and adding interactivity — using HTML 5 for video — up to simple gaming in-ad. Apple will offer a 60 / 40 split on revenue, and users can even buy apps straight from an ad.

In-app SMS.

Map overlays.

Quick look for previewing documents.

Photo Library access.

Calendar access.

Full access to the camera.

Video playback and capture.

Date and address “data detectors.”

Automated testing and performance / power analysis (the same tools Apple uses).

Note: OS 4.0 will not work on iPhone 3G and below, iPod Touch 2G and below.

You heard right, folks — according to the Wall Street Journal, Apple is currently “developing a new iPhone to debut this summer,” and as if that weren’t enough, it’s also “working on another model for US mobile phone operator Verizon Wireless.” As of this moment, details about the break are nowhere to be found, but it’s not like either tidbit is shocking. This summer will mark the one-year anniversary of the iPhone 3GS, and if the Cupertino-based company keeps with its historical refresh pattern, we’re just a few months out from seeing the latest and greatest iPhone. There’s also been no shortage of iPhone-to-Verizon rumors over the years, with the latest of ‘em happening during the run-up to the iPad’s launch.

Update: We’re now learning that the “next iPhone is being manufactured by Taiwanese contract manufacturer Hon Hai Precision Industry,” which just so happens to be the same outfit responsible for crafting all prior iPhones. That’s according to “people briefed on the matter” and sourced by the WSJ. It’s also stated that the world’s first CDMA iPhone will be manufactured by Pegatron Technology, which we caught just last week dabbling in some of NVIDIA’s Tegra 2-based wares. If all goes well, Pegatron could begin mass production of the CDMA iPhone (exact model not disclosed) this September, so it’s hard to say if Sprint or Verizon would have access before the all-too-lucrative holiday season. As for quotes on the matter? Most everyone involved wouldn’t say a word, but an AT&T spokesman did utter the following: “There has been lots of incorrect speculation on CDMA iPhones for a long time. We haven’t seen one yet and only Apple knows when that might occur.”

On a week that couldn’t possibly get any bigger for Apple, that’s exactly what just happened. Everyone suspected that a fourth-generation iPhone was in the works, but having an outlet like the WSJ confirm it just makes the summer that much harder to wait for. There’s also the possibility that 2010 will be the final year that AT&T retains its death-grip on the iPhone, but by the sound of this report, it still seems as if the nation’s largest GSM carrier may nab exclusive rights on the latest iPhone. We also can’t help but wonder about the future of a true 4G iPhone — will Sprint manage to grab a WiMAX-enabled version? Will Verizon get its grubby paws on an LTE model? We figured only Jobs would know, but now… there might just be someone else out there willing to spill the beans.

Update 2: Soon after the news broke, we were informed that the next-generation iPhone would be announced on June 22nd (a Tuesday, naturally) and would be dubbed the iPhone HD (a name that has been tossed around before). That certainly makes sense given that Apple almost certainly has to up the pixel count in order to rival the EVO 4G, HD2 and all of those other high-res handsets, but we’re still reserving judgment until we see that fateful media invite hit our inbox.

Update 3: John Gruber’s just weighed in with some more tidbits, in his characteristically polite way. Gruber says the next model will have an A4-class SoC, a 960 x 640 display, a front-facing camera, and that iPhone OS 4.0 will enable third-party multitasking. A pretty safe set of predictions, in all, but Gruber’s done pretty well in the past, so we’ll just have to wait and see.

It has the feature called “VoiceOver“, you know, iPod telling you the title and artist of the song, which the new iPod shuffle also have. And also the shake feature when you want to shuffle a song. Other features contain the Live Radio with live pause and tagging function, the pedometer that is useful for joggers.

The iPod Nano has 3 built-in games. Klondike, Maze, and Vortex. I only played them once. There are some games in iTunes but they are so expensive… like $4.99 each game.

It has an audio playback for upto 24 hours, and video playback for upto 5 hours… only 4 hours and 1 hour difference with iPod Touch and iPhone. Not bad at all.

We can sync contacts, photos, notes, calendar’s to-do’s from itunes to our Nano. We can also record voice memos with Nano’s built-in microphone.

There is no way to get our recorded videos using iTunes by the way. We need to enable disk use our ipod and click the DCIM folder to see our videos.

Advantages:
- Small, handy, flatty mp3 player
- Shoots video!
- Motion Sensor
- Microphone

Disadvantages:
- Compatibility – for videos, we need to convert the format to mp4 or to any compatible format.
- No available games for FREE.
- Dock connector is on the right side while lower versions are on the left. Some speakers support only lower versions of iPod Nano.
- Cannot add notes/contacts/to-do’s directly from nano.

Rate: 7/10.

Last night, my phone was acting crazy. The arrow up and down keys won’t function. When I press the middle button, it goes to video mode forever and I need to shut down the phone to go back to the main screen. I was already thinking of bringing it to a technician but no no, i dont want to spend again… and instead I said to myself, “I can do this!”. So I tried the simplest and common solution. Reinstall firmware! Yes. I did that but still the same. I was already thinking of getting rid of nokia products that time. Oh well… Then after an hour or so, I checked my phone again. I noticed that the camera key was stuck. I unstuck it quickly and the phone became normal again! Hooray! — thats the Chapter 1.

Now lets go to the final chapter…

After fixing the phone, I decided to restore all my ‘old’ datas into my phone. I was clicking the restore button in my PC Suite but nothing happened. I found out that there was no saved backup files in my computer. Great! I just realized that I reformatted my PC and didnt able to back up my nokia (backup) files. SO now my phone is totally brand new, not physically though. All my contacts saved in the phone memory are gone gone gone.

Thats it! Another “adventure” in my life.
