Which is increasingly irrelevant.

Oh, did Microsoft Office's near universal dominance in the word processing and spreadsheet arenas somehow diminish while I was sleeping last night?

Apparently so, in Baker's puny little "mind."

-button to turn off more practically placed on the side, instead of the stupid top button

Alan Baker
Why is that more practical? Shouldn't an off button be somewhere you wouldn't typically hold a phone?

Steve de Mena
Hitting the power button than requires a downward swipe to complete the power off. You can't hit it accidentally and power down the phone. You'd just blank the screen

Nashton
The power button is exactly where I would expect it to be.

Light source from 2 locations, spreads flash light out more evenly. It's not like having 2 high power wireless flashes 5-6 feet part, but you get the idea.

-2.0 aperture compared to 2.4

Alan Baker
Great. Does it actually result in better pictures?

Steve de Mena
I think only in low light situations. They need to address some issues, maybe can be done with software update.

Carl Zeiss lens, larger aperture, excellent results.

There are many that rave about the quality of low light pics, not to mention the other cool stuff that the iphone does *not* have.
