Always your talk is nice and clean and geek , I LOVE IT

BTW town is really beautiful !!! It's art!!

Yeah , the town ain't that bad Its 2000 years old so .. it has some history.

Love it that you enjoyed the show. Will be talking about both android and IOS devices in the upcoming shows.

Do you like the video-blog format ?

Thanx Godel !

The town is 2000 years old, so it has a lot of history.

We will be 'talking about the droids' in the upcoming episodes of KWTV and the Knightcast podcast. Do you appreciate the videoblogging format ?

Install launcher pro yet?

I have the exact same cover!
Got from HK for about $1

I also rooted and bought Titanium so I can now sync backups to freaking Dropbox! Amazing.

You can buy some apps directly from the developer. No automatic updates but I bought PhoneWeaver, QuickOffice and Titanium that way. Try pocketgear's Android site. They're based in Germany so probably have Belgian billing.

I also mount my SD once a week and rsync -avz to my Mac. Sooooo Awesome.

You might be able to find another camera app. Should be possible to support ogg or flac audio codec as it's already there. The startup and shutdown sounds are lossless. I deleted them though.

btw - I'm on JM2 and Goog Nav works perfectly.

Nice idea, doing a video test on your home town. Made me dial up Google Maps to look up Tongeren.
See that you are also a DS9 fan - my favourite Trek series.

And, as someone who is poised to upgrade his iPod Touch + ancient cellphone to either an "Apple-of-my-Eye" Phone, an "Out-of-this-World" Galaxy or perhaps a Desirable HTC, I was very interested in your comments and demonstration.

But, dear Knightwise, saying that the iPhone is MUCH too expensive is a bit over the top, surely. It's only a 14% increase over the Galaxy (630 / 550 according to your figures) and the extra EUR 80 is surely worth the better sound and display quality (not to mention coolness factor). Unless of course you rank FRRRREEEEDDDDOMMM more highly, which is the direction I'm thinking in!

Hoi K,

Alles goed?

Bedankt voor je video. Ik vond het zeer informatief om over de verschillen te leren. Je Engels is zeer goed!

Wat mij opvalt (en je mag eens gokken welk toestel ik gebruik) is dat de Android heel fel zijn best heeft gedaan om de look and feel van de ios "na te bootsen".

OK, er zeker nog heel wat verbeterpunten aan de iPhone en zeker aan het ios (zoals het startscherm dat aanpasbaar zou moeten zijn).

Het feit dat je geen programma's kan downloaden op je Samsung is toch wel een serieus minpunt als je het mij vraagt.

Als je een Samsung én een iPodTouch koopt denk ik dat je prijs niet als een valabel argument mag gebruiken in deze discussie.
Het prijsverschil is ook al te verwaarlozen als je weet dat de iPhone 4 echt een juweeltje is en de Galaxy zeer goedkoop aanvoelt. -> Hey, het oog mag ook wat hebben hé.

Ook de kwaliteit van het scherm en van de video/audio is duidelijk beter dan de Samsung.

Als designer past de iPhone perfect in mijn Mac ecosysteem.

Groetjes van je ex-collega,

Piet

Ok Feedback time

@ Eric : Thanx for the info i'm a Noob when it comes to the Galaxy S and look to you for my Guru-information. Rooting the phone does seem very tempting. Is it hard to do ? What are the pro's (Noob question, i know). I've also been thinkning about using dropbox as a "sync" medium to upload content to the phone (podcasts for example) over the air. (something i'll probably talk about in the next show)
As for Rsyncing your Sd card : I indeed LOVE the fact you can "approach" the storage on the phone like a mass storage device. Flexibility ftw.

@georomancer : Thanx for your feedback You are correct in the fact that the price difference between the 550 euro GalaxyS and the 630 euro Iphone 4 is very small. Considering that the Galaxy S is actually MORE expensive then the HTC desire is also something that we should not forget. Its still a pretty expensive phone (if you buy it off the shelf) so you are right in that account. Would i pay the extra 80 euro's for an iphone 4 ? I probably would. Do i love the fact that i can yell 'freedom' .. Yes i DO
Tongeren is indeed a pretty nice town to live. Its ancient and the 'tech level' of the population is LOW , but still its quite nice.

@piets : Yep , it does feel like all the 'phone interfaces' are leaning towards the IOS side.
And yo are correct that if i buy BOTH the ipod touch AND the Galaxy that i'm no longer 'under' the pricepoint for an iphone, but i'm looking for ways to use the Galaxy S to do some videoblogging and stuff. Using an external mike and the right software I should be able to pull it off (ironically i'm going to test using a set of IPHONE headphone/mike cables this week)
I have good news in the fact that i CAN BUY apps in the app store (started this week) so i'm thrilled about that. The Galaxy S does feel "cheaper" then the Iphone 4, that is correct, but i would argue about the screen quality. OUtside the Amoled is not that awesome, but inside its pretty cool.

Thanx everyone for the feedback Btw .. this really adds to the value of the show !
