my really young cousins might be impressed with something like that though.

maybe in a few more years...

impress me with ur phone

i don't know you well enough to know if you're making a point to say that it's something impressive or if you're making a joke and implying the pro has nothing impressive...

as far as gaming, i believe i stated my opinion about both phones... completely worthless. i just thought the discussion going on before my post was silly because gaming through a tv for both is not impressive at all. that was the reason i posted... nobody has a reason to "envy," belittle, brag, or defend someone's/their phone in that regard.

ur new to WM? Ur like the other dude. When U buy a WM phone. U r not signing up for a war with Iphone owners. I just want to let U know. It does not matter if ur impressed or not. U do not matter. I do not matter. But It's good to see ur opinion. But here's my opinion too, take envy away from ur body. It will limit ur experience.

depends on who U ask. U ask here they tell U it's worth it. On iphone forums, They tell U TP is a POS. SO it's up to u.

not new to wm... just to these forums
but lol i dont know how my post makes me look like i hate iphone owners... it said both the iphone and the touch pro are worthless for gaming, so playing thru a tv is not impressive at all... i'm not like the guy u called envious because i was just pointing out that it's silly for people to critcize and defend on that issue
and i don't think either of us is being envious of anything especially with that clip.. well i can't speak for him, but if i had those feelings, i'd just buy one... just because people aren't impressed with something like that doesn't mean they're filled with envy. while we r making opinions about the capability of gaming thru a tv, ur making personal opinions about us.. not cool!
like i already said, sorry if something like that impresses u.. i was just making a statement about the quality of mobile games on both phones and how its pointless to argue over it. it would be like comparing the worst teams in sports with each other... gaming on phones still needs to be improved a lot. in a few years it may be something impressive.

the mogul was outdated before it even came out... i jumped to the pro at launch for that reason and im happy with a capital

i am assuming u r keeping sero and using the iphone as a secondary for it's goodies... in that case i'd say upgrade ur actual phone if u got the money.

jethro, I was showing remote desktop to a guy at the moose lodge the other night, and yes he had a gen 1 iphone and yes he was impressed as hell.

Sorry if you think that video was impressive, it wasn't to me, and it was also completely impractical. Games on any phone, including the iphone, simply aren't good enough for a tv. They're great for when you're taking a dump.

What I'm looking forward to with my video cables is being able to bring up years and years of pictures off my pc while visiting with friends or family. With the iphone I'd pay more per month, not to mention the 10 bucks for the orb app. Also, I have to pay 200 to get out of sprint. In another two years, maybe I'll consider the iphone 4g lol.

Like I said, It does not matter if ur impress or not. Maybe it will matter to those people that these games that they use in their handheld can now be played in their living room tv. Iphone is not trying to replace ur ps3 or xbox. It is a phone. So a phone that can do that is something. The same with TP, It is not trying to replace ur game consoles because it is a phone. any which way, those who are not impress does not matter.
