Video calls with iphone 4

We have officially stepped into modern mobile communication with the new iPhone 4 announced on Monday at the WWCD. I still remember when I saw in SF movies people talking to each other with a camera (star wars anyone?).

I however don’t think we’re quite ready for it. Here’s the thing, in a normal real life conversation face to face, you never look at someone more than 10 seconds in the eye, that’s a natural reflex. You either look around while you talk or time to time check your watch, scratch your chin etc. How would that happen in a video conference call? People will want to look at each other but I’m sure that many will hide themselves. So be it, Apple has a cool feature where you can activate the OTHER camera on the back so that the person you’re calling will see exactly what you’re seeing. Pretty, pretty, pretty good.

Of course, Apple is not the first one to introduce videocalls… it has been attempted years ago. But while mobile devices were at a baby stage, Apple has managed to bring simplicity and sexiness to it and like “cut-paste” on a mobile or the tablet technology with the iPad, they manage to bring it to the mass audience with success. And with its new “mini-iMovie” in this HD 720p video phone, I can’t WAIT to see what people will come up with!

Again, no flash on the new iPhone and seriously, who gives a flying fuck about Flash. It’s old technology that has poorly evolved. To me, the lack of Flash is a blessing… I don’t have to endure those fucking intrusive ads on the web anymore. As for video, people are shifting to HTML5 so suck on this.

The iPhone 4, like the 3Gs and even the 1st gen one will not be the best technology around, I’m sure that other constructor will come up (catch up is the word actually) with same or better products on paper but then again, Apple has redefined the standards. Let’s be objective and honest here, the iPhone 4 will kick ass and the anti-mac clowns can eat penguin shit and crawl back to their open fuck source shit hole. Yeah, google that.
