Re: iPhone ROM Development $1000

These developers do a great job and make the kind of necessary enhancements that should have been included.



Someone mentioned above syncing mp3's with itunes, while that is a handy feature, not what i was looking for. It's the applications that set,the iphone apart, and the fact that you can modify the menus on your computer.

Using the ipod touch tethered to your tp2 doesnt' work that well. The location based services work off of the nearest hotspot and a cellular phone doesn't broadcast the correct location. Tried this method for months but finally got fed up with it. Carrying my blackberry curve, tp2 and ipod touch wasn't as user friendly as you might think.

How about an iphone emulator that downscales the resolution of the touch pro 2 to iphone resolution? Surely using the apple SDK that would be possible. All I want is the apps.

@ the closet iPhone Fan.


I think what you're saying is that you want an iPhone. The hard way?...


Or, is it you're just feeling really left out at parties while your friends are comparing/competing with who's got better apps on their iPhone?...dude.


The only reason why I would ever want to see this developed is to see you out of the $1000.
