Got the update last night, excited to try it!
I have an iPhone, and get frustrated by some things they should have. I haven’t played around witha n android and probably would enjoy it more. I laugh at these iphone lovers and their comparisions. theiy’re both good devices with their ups and downs. When some guy is telling me how i should hold a phone is kind of enoying. Don’t get me wrong, i like the iphone but it does have some faults. I can’t understand when they came out with the first one why it lacked alot of functions, like a video camera.
Any plans for an Android app???
Or BlackBerry?

LOL…
Can you at least say NSFW on stuff like that, man.
I’ve owned my 32g IPhone for 2years and keep it safe with a rhino case.8months ago I dropped it off a roof 2stories on to concrete and it still works like a clock.The thing about the phone I love’s is all the stuff you can plug it into with like my Jvc boom-box.
The issue that Android users (and PC users and non-iPod MP3 player users) have with the iPhone is not that we think it is inferior to Android. It is that we KNOW that it is NOT necessarily superior, yet it is considered the be all end all by way too many.
What I mean by this, is that a case can be made that either phone (well, operating system really) is better for any individual. Unfortunately, the majority of the time, the iPhone user is under the impression that the iPhone is simply the only thing out there. That is what android users find annoying.
this cuts both ways, i mean go to ANY tech site and see how many “ANDROID FTW” comments you see under ANY given news tidbit regarding ios, yet you generally dont see same said comments by iphone users under android articles
it comes off as insecure imo
anywhoo its a silly flamewar, both great platforms and the more they push one another the better it is for the consumer
There is def an inferiority complex – or an insecurity. It comes from being looked at as a second choice.
In any case, I agree fully about the two great platforms. It is the competition that drives this.
That being said, there should be an android app as well for HIO android users.
and windows phone 7
“one of the founders of Apple has an Android phone”
lmao
did apple at least deal with the antenna issue the iphones had..?
it wasnt a real issue, but id say their case program was a nice concession
looking for some andoid love here…
30 Reasons Android is better…. Nuff said.
1. Desktop widgets
2. Battery removal
lmfao how meta
Pretty weak list to be honest.
http://twitter.com/andrewberkshire
you guys make me think of this video.
All jokes aside, the iphones are great for those who don’t really need a smartphone or those who aren’t as good with computers in general. I have friends who wouldn’t normally have this type of technology that are perfectly happy with their iphone.
I don’t use an iphone so I don’t see how that video applies to me.
http://twitter.com/andrewberkshire
That’s pretty much how i see it too. For people that don’t like to have excessive amounts of customization or specific needs with their phone, the iphone is perfect. It’s user friendly and idiot proof (for the most part), and ready to go out of the box. Myself I need more from my phone, so I use my android for a remote control for my tv, remote for my computer (which is hooked up to my tv), free GPS + navigation, to remote desktop into my pc, control torrents, wifi strength tester (for optimal placement of my 2 routers), both wifi and USB tethering, and 8.1 mp camera is always nice, or to move files around via my home network (5 systems at home, and now i don’t have to get up off the couch to do anything!). that’s just a few examples of what i do. Now i’m pretty sure some of these things could be done with Iphone, but not to the extent that i need. Plus I don’t like how apple has the ability to track you. Just not a fan of the software restrictions with Iphones. Great devices, but i just need something more.
Now how about a HIO android app
seriously, lets brake it down
1. Desktop widgets
2. Battery removal
well a removable battery wouldnt be an issue if the widgets werent such system hogs
2. External SD card storage up to 32GB
internal storage up to 32GB
3. Phone can be used as a flash drive
so can the iphone with file sharing app
4. Multitasking just like your computer (MAC or PC)
this was rectified in ios4
5. Notification system (emails, texts, voicemail, Facebook, calendar and more)
this will be rectified in ios5
6. Personalization – Stocks, Hello Kitty, Superman, Bowling, Gucci or whatever.
(how old is this list)
ios 4 and 5 rectify this
7. More free apps. (Essential apps that you pay for on iPhone are free on Android)
i dont mind paying a dev for their work, but thats just me
8. Voice everything – text, search and navigation
this depends on what handset and what version of android you are using, see.; fragmentation
9. Carrier choice (basically all carriers carry Android phones)
this hasnt been an issue in canada since telus and bell launched their HSPA+ network, also the only country this applied to was the states, but AT&T’s exclusivity is no longer in effect (again how old is this list?)
verizon has the iphone, sprint is getting it, rumours of t-mobil as well
10. Video Chat on phones or computers via Gtalk, Skype, Yahoo or almost anything (not just iPhone users with FaceTime – that’s’ just dumb).
Video Chat on 3G, 4G, or WiFi
how about tango? facetime is NOT the only option for ios
11. Phone prices (there are phones that are significantly cheaper than the iPhone.
you get what you pay for, i dont mind shellin out a few more bucks for a well designed phone plus the peace of mind of having incredible customer support that android simply isnt in the market to offer, unless they take a few cues from apple and start handling the software AND the hardware, which leads me to
12. Manufacturer choices (ex. if you want your Samsung TV to work with Samsung phone, it can).
funny you bring up samsung, since them, LG and HTC have collectively sh[t a brick when google bought/aquired motorolla
13.Size choices (if you like a huge phone or small phone you can choose).
i love the size of some of the HTC and samsung phones, no doubt, and this is one point ill agree with, but dont forget this also leads to androids biggest problem (fragmentation)
14. Keyboard or Virtual Keyboard
fair gripe, but there are bluetooth case solutions for the iphone
15. Talking GPS based on Google Maps with Satellite and 3D views.
there are so many gps options for all platforms im unsure how this gives android any kind of advantage
16.Standard cheap easy micro USB charging, use your old Blackberry charger.
I counter with, classy, not cheap, bose sounddock that simply rocks
17. Editable dictionary
fair enough
18. Fantastic Google Voice integration
apple could improve here yes
19. Download all types of music (from iTunes or anywhere else)
considering itunes has the largest library to choose from, im content over here
20. Portable WiFi Hotspot
ios 4.3, apples got it
21. Tethering without jail breaking or rooting the Phone
where do you live? weve never had to jail break to tether in canada, unless you had less than a gig data plan and if that was the case why the hell would you even want to tether?
22. Sync calendar and contact information for free over the air
ios can do this
23. Develop your own customized apps for free.
this doesnt attract me but i do understand the pros and cons of walled vs non
24. Better rear and front camera choices
one would hope so considering the amount of different handsets android has flooded the market with
25. Over the air music syncing and streaming
synching, ios5 rectifies, streaming, thats easy to do in ios
26. Seeing all websites even ones with Flash
fair point, but there are workarounds and even adobe themselves are moving towards html 5
27. Install any app you want even competitor apps
see 23
28. Constant updates so the need to get a new phone is almost obsolete
all smartphones have this
pardon for me renumbering it to the proper 28
so basically you’re admitting that an iphone can be close to being as good as an android phone IF you know what apps to download…
OK, sounds fair.
(BTW i didn’t write the article, i just agree with 50+1% of what the guy said.)
what do you mean “admit”
im not a fanboy, i like all tech, android, ios, winmo, its alllll good
what im saying is a lot of the functionality that android touts as superior is often said without finishing the sentence
beyond tango (which is an adroid app as well btw) and file sharing, nothing much of what i said had anything to do with knowing what apps to download
Can’t be that difficult to port this app to Android, can it?
Crap!! I have an HTC (android). I don’t know what the trouble is. iPhones and androids are both programmed with Java. Anyways, I can still use my web browser tho check out HIO.

So, any idea when this will be out on blackberry?
the devs are rushing to get it out before rim declares bankrupcy
Here’s my two cents worth as a telecoms professional, most in my industry love the iPhone, having said that the Android undeniably has a following but IMO it’s not yet at the level of the iPhone. Maybe in another 12 to 18 months.

Hey guys,
My wife and I are taking a vacation in the wonderful city of Montreal in 14 days. I have never been to Montreal, and was wondering If I could get your input on some hot spots??
I was wondering, what would be a good sports bar to take in the Habs vs Leafs season opener?? Also if anyone has been on a bell center tour, and what that was like??
OK who wants to fight?
I’ll fight for my right to party.

All these calls for Beaulieu to start the year in the NHL are going to Latenderize™ him.

What? Who’s calling for that? At the absolute craziest he could go to the AHL but even that would be fast tracking him.
LOTS of media saying he should make the club.

He can’t go to Hamilton, there’s some rule against it. Its either junior or Montreal. It will be junior, no need to rush him.

What is the point of this app anyway? It’s pretty sluggish, the UI/UX is not very good and it doesn’t do anything beter than what I get through the website on my phone. Am I missing something?
Also the fact that comment replies aren’t grouped really really sucks.
so comment havent changed in the new app , is that what your saying , cause they do suck

I was hoping they had solved that issue.
It’s virtually impossible to follow the blogs on my iPhone.

I agree. How about supporting the largest growing market of Smartphone owners, Androids?

I think by supporting the androids this will lead to aliens wanting support as well.
And I third that!

How about some Android love for those of us who don’t buy into the most overhyped product line in NA?
- I shall always remember Captain Koivu. Habs and Hockey.
SF09 on Twitter
Pretty sure I was going to post this verbatim, minus the sig.
not sure how the number 1 mobile OS in the world is overhyped
It’s #1 because it’s overhyped. People buy it because it’s the hip thing to do.
I want to stab whoever programmed iTunes in the face.
Not really, I have one because of the apps
weird
most people i know who buy it do so because they like the product
but if you want to speak on behalf of all those who bought into something you havent, thats cool
@Crosseyed – I don’t understand why Android users, much like linux folk, feel the need to yell their choice from the mountain tops. I mean I have an iphone and I certainly don’t go advertising it. I use it because I like it
It’s nothing to do with Android or Linux in particular for me, I find Apple to be a terribly overhyped technology company who overcharge for their products and have so for a very long time.
- I shall always remember Captain Koivu. Habs and Hockey.
SF09 on Twitter
yet they undercharge for the ipad and appleTV
Have you seen the stats about iPhone customer retention or customer satisfaction? Do you find they contradict your position, or support them?
Customers are satisfied because they have no idea what they’re using. They couldn’t tell you the specs of their phone if you put a gun to their head. All they know is that it’s an Apple product, and it’s deserving of worship because of that fact.
break your android then get it replaced no questions asked
best of luck
I disagree that being able to list off the clock speed of your processor is an effective measure of satisfaction – I think the fact that things just work easily and intuitively is what makes people happy and brings them back.
I started off as an anti-Apple fanboy, and was very excited about the Android line. Somewhere along the way, the iPhone won me over for its low maintenance and simplicity (I do enough computer jockeying at work), and the wide variety of great apps keeps me a customer. My wife who was anti-smartphone (not very technical) saw it, saw how easy it was to use, and wanted one and never looked back.
I think Apple products have a lot of appeal for propellerheads / gearheads like myself, speaking as a computer systems engineer. Sorry if I can’t convince you that this is possible.
I’ll happily provide you with any iPhone specs you want off the top of my head – you may be pleasantly surprised!

Nothing that phone can do that my Android can’t, except be more expensive and be intentionally built not to last so the company can sell me a new phone in 12 months.

strange argument since apple will replace your phone with a brand new one within a year, no questions asked, no receipt needed if theirs a problem with your device
if your going to criticize them there are ways of doing so without making stuff up
How about at 18 months then, or 2 years? For what an iPhone runs I’d like better than a ’1 year should be OK’ guarantee.
I’ve never seen them release any piece of tech that somebody doesn’t do just as well, at a lesser price and lasts longer.

My launch day 3GS is operating just fine, haven’t had a problem with it since it. From what I know of other users, this is not atypical.
If your complaint is that operating systems go end-of-life, well, it’s probably fair to say that OS fragmentation off carriers and handsets is a huge challlenge for Android developers. Maybe you don’t like Apple’s approach, but maybe you can recognize the pros and cons.
girlfriends out of warranty 3gs was replaced brand new, unlocked 32g, for $199, consider at the time that was the price for an 8g 3gs on 3 year
customer service is NOT a weakness for apple
Don’t you find the Android handset release cycle even shorter than the iPhone release cycle? Why not?
Or do you think the phones fall apart that quickly? My experience with owning iPhones is that they hold together well and have good warranty service. What experience have you had to the contrary?
Yep, streamed RDS on my Droid3 and then plugged into the big screen through HDMI. Watched preseason hockey for the first time.

Here’s the thing: developers want to develop for iOS. Apple is able to deliver a broad, vibrant app marketplace, and people can make a living developing for that ecosystem. This makes the application marketplace desirable for smartphone customers, and in my eyes, so many groups using iOS as lead platform is why iOS is great.
That isn’t hype. That’s delivering a quality product with great extensibility and usability.
android and winmo7 are great too and all platforms should get support, but this knee jerk reaction to bash apple is so silly
