Fix for iPhone Gurgling Water Noises and Dropped Call
freegnu.blogspot.com — iPhone fix for bad to no call quality and
reception
http://freegnu.blogspot.com/2008/09/iphone-gurgling-water-noises-and.html
Note to Larry
This is why Apple doesn't want tons of background processes ruining
the phone experience.
You wannabe PC the N800 doesn't have to take a phone call while it is
running Linux apps of your choice and killing the N800 battery.
BTW when you say the iPhone can not multitask your full of cow rear
end droppings.
A properly written application can launch native OS functions under
its control and do other tasks it was written for.
The free applications Air Share runs a web server, and other i/0 via
wifi. At the same time you can browse and read Word or Excel documents
under its control. You can watch a movie under its control and it will
still pause and take an incoming phone call.

Simply not true. I make and take calls, swap files and live text with
Skype, Gizmo and Fring on N800 simultaneously with running other apps,
except for rdesktop which demands the computer's full attention.
Playing games, doing WP or email, anything but remote desktop from the PC
at home, works fine while Skyping to friends across the planet.
So, what you're telling them is simply not true. The multitasking N800 has
no trouble running any of its VoIP programs simultaneously with other apps.
Linux will even play video and audio on any of the various media players
while simultaneously monitoring Skype. You can play music on the speakers
during a phone call if you're more multitasking than I am...(c; We are not
limited to one app to/from the audio, either, but I am.....too old.
Your turn....

Nope, not really. Rita Reys MP3 is playing at 128K using YouAmp with its
audio leveling through the little speakers, lulling me into a euphoria as
I'm reading about the poor bastards that invested in...

I didn't mean you were exaggerating about the N800's ability to multitask,
but the iPhone's INability to do it.

Ah, I see. Any mention of VoIP is a pipe dream on any sellphone,
including iPhone. The carriers will not allow anyone to bypass the
revenue streams.

It would be wonderful if that were true, but in America it simply is not.
The cellular carriers control the FCC, just like the cable carriers.
They'll never allow any competitors to the cellular interests.
It's why Clear Channel owns your radio stations.
It's really too bad.

The 700MHz spectrum auction was open to any company with a large enough
checkbook- where were the computer/internet companies that could save you
from the "sellphone" monopolies? Where were Google, Microsoft, Apple,
Yahoo, etc? They were on the sidelines letting Verizon and AT&T gobble up
even more spectrum because there's no sustainable business model in
undercutting the big cellular companies. (See "metro WiFi.") The cost of
building and maintaining the infrastucture is just too high to make a living
at building a network and tthinking you can sell it for less money and more
profit than the incumbents.
