Default Anyone using an iPhone?

Now that the new operating system allows backgrounds I figured more than a few of you would have some nice 928 pics on your phones. Here is one to start:

If you press the lock button and the home button at the same time the screen will 'flash' white, telling you it has saved whatever screen you are currently on into the camera roll in your photos. pretty cool.

Not on my 3G. Apple chose to make it 3GS and 4G only, crap. Cue the legions of Android users....

shmark...you can still post a pick of your lock screen if you have one with a 928 on it. and it is lame that apple didnt allow it on the first and second gen.

If anyone else has the new iphone we can do 928-based face-time calls. Yes. I am a nerd.

Is there an app that allows easy Rennlist reading on the go?

I will likely go iPhone this summer... I'm still on a Palm 755p!

Comes with an easy-to-use browser and two-finger zoom right out of the box. RL has a mobile version of the forum pages that is less picture intensive for faster loading. Generally, I read the full version on my iPhone.

I use my I-phone a lot, and also take heat from one of my brothers who heads the smartphone group at Palm. If you are moving from a Palm device, test-drive the iPhone keyboard to make sure you'll be comfortable with no tactile feedback.

My 3G iPhone with 3.0 will grab screen shots easily. Hold the top button, tap the front button, screen is saved.
