Re: MERGED - IPhone 4
Yes but presenting me with those two options happens to stop me from doing whatever it is I am doing which is the issue. I want to be notified in a way that isn't obtrusive just like every other Mobile OS on the market today does. Why not have a notification system that I can pull down similar to Android or have my new IMs/Text Messages show up on a ticker like they do in WebOS? Having a blue box dim everything in the background and present you with two options is not a smart notification system...which is why no one likes Windows UAC. Nobody wants to be annoyed by those blue boxes especially when they pop up every time someone sends you an IM or text message. I don't even like leaving IM+ when I'm using it because I know everytime I leave the program I'm going to get a blue box popping up.
LOL, it gives you the option of viewing or ignoring and then it goes right back to what you were doing and if you are doing something where you don't want to be interrupted just turn it off.
Seems simple to me.

. I kinda lost track on this thread and I have to read and catch up but to hear this come from you shocked me. From the debates we have had about phones and tech I took you to be die-hard Apple. Why do you consider it to be the same? They added alot hardware wise (better cam, front cam, better antenna
, no one can deny that screen is the shit, slimmer) and the new OS. Im not arguing with your statement Im just asking. Im in the limbo right now as far as phones so I try to soak in as much as owners can tell me. Fuck all that getting my money and time tied up with contracts.
