2.0 isn't up yet and I just don't want to do it the other way yet. What I'm liking and wondering is about that add library feature? Does that mean we can change up our libraries on the fly now?
I know I have my regular library with all music for my larger iPod, I have a iPhone library with my road music, and I now have my uncompressed server library with all my DVDA's (thanks BTW) and my other lossless music. This would be awesome cause then I can pretty much dock the computer and switch libraries from anywhere when I need to.
Also like the search button cause on my house Nuvo system you can't search via name punchin. Scrolling through the whole list is a pain! I have been talking with them for months to get a code up to allow you to search on the keypads, but nothing yet! Everytime we do an install I call them and tell them "the customer said they love it but. . . a seach function would be nice!"
Since I will be waiting a while to get my iPod Touch update... can someone please post their impressions by way of a 'Signal' comparison? Would be great to know some of the differences...
Hey Poo - I installed the remote app on my new iPhone 3G, but haven't had a ton of time to play with it. The app does seem pretty fast and I haven't run into any weird quirks yet.
My iPod Touch is in the middle of the v2.0 upgrade as I type this. I will have a complete article soon.
Chris, congrats on your 1st iPhone. You are going to love it. You get white or black? I didn't upgrade. I wasn't blown away by the GPS and I really didn't need the 3g network being that our area isn't really litup yet with 3g. I think I'll switch over when the HD increases. My sync is almost done. I have a few movies that I burned over so it's taking a while and I have at least 14 gigs of music. i should have booted out all the music and movies so I could get up and going but oh well. I want to play with it. Damn I wish people would stop calling me cause this is taking longer and longer! LOL
I'll let you know what I think of it after I get it up and going.
ya know I think yesterday went better than I thought it would have. I mean the first release it was horrible for 3-4 days after launch. By 8 last night everything was running normal. I think ATT and apple did fine this time. I mean shit is going to happen when you have thousands of people all trying to do the same thing in a window of time. The highway is only so wide to hold all that data! Got to be patient. Go outside cut the grass, work in the yard, help the parents with their yard alittle, ya know.
Hey jimi - I got the white 16 GB model. Everyone seems to be getting the black one around here so I had to be a little different :-)
I ran into the same thing when I updated my iPod Touch with v2.0. I wish I would have cleared all the movies on it so I could start using it sooner! Oh well, things are pretty good when were only complaining about this!
There certainly were some issues yesterday, but the press blew it way out of proportion. Who knows, maybe Apple was going for that effect.
ok here's what I don't like about remote so far. you have to have itunes open for it to find the library???? Signal open up iTunes for you if it isn't open. Much better in my opinion cause I don't want to have it open all the time. Remote is damn fast though. Also seriously. . .can someone please allow you to control radio stations from itunes! how hard is this to ask for! LOL iknow t he signal work around but what if I want to go back and forth between music and radio!

I just got home after waiting over three hours in line to get my 3G iPhone. I hope it works when I try to activate it in a few minutes.

Quick comparison with Signal?
