[QUOTE=Hexxeh;30050241]First generation devices can't upgrade to iOS 4.[/QUOTE] Is that a capability thing? Or is it just Apple being Apple? (The answer to this is so predictable the question's almost rhetorical, but I must ask).
[QUOTE=dialogical;30050293]Is that a capability thing? Or is it just Apple being Apple? (The answer to this is so predictable the question's almost rhetorical, but I must ask).[/QUOTE] Apple no longer supports older mobile hardware with new updates. I doubt an iPhone 2G could handle iOS 4.0 as it struggles even with 3.1.3.
[QUOTE=lead_farmer;30050348]Apple no longer supports older mobile hardware with new updates. I doubt an iPhone 2G could handle iOS 4.0 as it struggles even with 3.1.3.[/QUOTE] This is the first time I've assumed it's just Apple being greedy and been wrong. I may even screencap.
So the app is free, but it's $5.00 to upgrade your account for the app? Lol paying $5 to browse
[QUOTE=Quark:;30053948]So the app is free, but it's $5.00 to upgrade your account for the app? Lol paying $5 to browse[/QUOTE] You're right he should give the hundreds of hours of work he's put into it away for free.

Spent all night working on this for you guys: [img]http://s.luaduck.co.uk/ZScreen-2011-05-26_02.09.58.jpg[/img] As it's 2AM it'll be rendered and uploaded tomorrow so you can see just how fast this thing really is.

Due to being forced to use safari to browse FP I wish apple would hurry the fuck up. FP on mobile safari sucks.

[editline]25th May 2011[/editline] I would pay for the App, but I'm hoping it's gonna be more useful than just opening safari on my Ipod.
If you read the OP and saw the images you would be able to tell this is a dedicated app, not a safari shortcut.
[QUOTE=Forumaster;30057574]If you read the OP and saw the images you would be able to tell this is a dedicated app, not a safari shortcut.[/QUOTE] I read the OP, but I don't think that there could be that much more to an App dedicated to Facepunch. I will still support this and try it out.
[QUOTE=Jelly;30054636]You're right he should give the hundreds of hours of work he's put into it away for free.[/QUOTE] open source developers do
[QUOTE=Tangara;30058596]open source developers do[/QUOTE] This isn't open source.
Holy shit this new version is FAST. Honestly, just updated this morning and it is brilliant.
While I think $5 is a bit steep, considering how much I'm on facepunch the investment will pay for itself within the week.
[QUOTE=Forumaster;30057519]Due to being forced to use safari to browse FP I wish apple would hurry the fuck up. FP on mobile safari sucks.[/QUOTE] Have you tried using [url="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/opera-mini-web-browser/id363729560?mt=8"]Opera Mini[/url]? Browsing FP via iOS is fine on [url="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/opera-mini-web-browser/id363729560?mt=8"]Opera Mini[/url] in my experience. [editline]26th May 2011[/editline] though I'd still much rather use this App to browse FP
[QUOTE=cueballv2themax;30058648]Holy shit this new version is FAST. Honestly, just updated this morning and it is brilliant.[/QUOTE] Single-context supremacy.
hurry up review board
Expecting a phone call with their decision, California area code, that's what usually happens.
[QUOTE=Hexxeh;30059745]Expecting a phone call with their decision, California area code, that's what usually happens.[/QUOTE] Apple sure are tight when it comes to that. Yet they let fart apps etc on with no problem. Hope it gets through!
[QUOTE=PyroCF;30059806]Apple sure are tight when it comes to that. Yet they let fart apps etc on with no problem. Hope it gets through![/QUOTE] They don't approve those anymore
If it isn't free,none is gonna buy that,it isn't fair.
[QUOTE=Utiltrk;30060493]If it isn't free,none is gonna buy that,it isn't fair.[/QUOTE] then use the browser. we don't care you can't afford $5
[QUOTE=cueballv2themax;30060613]then use the browser. we don't care you can't afford $5[/QUOTE] use [i]a[/i] browser, not [i]the[/i] browser. There's other browsers for iOS than Safari. other than that, I agree.
[QUOTE=Gordon Frohm;30060647]use [i]a[/i] browser, not [i]the[/i] browser. There's other browsers for iOS than Safari. other than that, I agree.[/QUOTE] wow how pedantic.
how do you think this would run on my first gen ipod touch?
[QUOTE=DogGunn;30021913]and then use download full html webpages with shit tons of images, while americandata plans are going backwards in allowance[/QUOTE] T-Mobile and Sprint both offer unlimited data with their most popular plans, which include unlimited everything for like $80 after the data plan cost. I sell cell phones for my job dude I'm not just talking shit [editline]26th May 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=PyroCF;30022550]Or the SGSII which is still better than Qualcomm CPUs that thing uses. That also doesn't change how much data it uses or how fast your internet is. This app is perfect for any mobile device.[/QUOTE] There's nothing wrong with Qualcomm processors. And obviously it isn't perfect for any mobile device since it's only programmed for iOS :v: [editline]26th May 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Tangara;30023842]The app would pay for itself in the amount of data it saves - dunno why people are bitching[/QUOTE] Well, assuming I had an iPhone, my account is grandfathered with unlimited Data. So I don't need to really worry about saving data.
Hexxeh you are still going to constantly update and improve the app right? Like higher res icons?
Pretty useless for me. Unlimited data up in this bitch. Just be more efficient.
