Messaging and data handling
The first thing I have to note regarded to messaging is the lack of MMS support: shame. It looks like Steve Jobs can only think about the United States, as no one’s interested in multimedia messages over there, but please, iPhone is sold in Europe too! This is also ridiculous as it probably wouldn’t have been a big deal to include it. SMS messages, however, are handled fine, messages are displayed in a chat-like view, and they can be sent to many addressees at once. One thing’s missing over here too: we can’t see how many characters have we typed.
The software still has an email client, and this time we can delete many messages at once. Another great thing is that we have Exchange support, but it’s not that great that the push feature is available only in this case, at Yahoo and MobileMe, but not at other accounts (not even GMail). A few words about MobileMe: this is service from the Macintosh, which has a yearly fee of $99 USD. It helps us to sync our emails, calendar entries, contacts, images between Macs and iPhones and it even has a web interface with a capacity of 20 GB. Although I couldn’t test-drive it, users say that Push Mail is flawless, many talk about the service as a “BlackBerry-killer”, at least regarding speed. Still, there is for example no searching for emails, which is also a strange thing…
The calendar is also new. At the old iPhone, iTunes has just simply united all iCal entries, which has been a problem, as we couldn’t set on the phone which calendar should the new entry go to. There are no such issues now, when using more calendars the entries are color-coded and when defining a new event we can set the destination calendar on the phone.
