This may explain why in almost all GPS navigation systems on the market, the default voice is female. One notable exception has been Germany, where BMW was forced to recall a female-voiced navigation system on its 5 Series cars in the late 1990s after being flooded with calls from German men saying they refused to take directions from a woman.
Haha, I skimmed it but was an interesting read. Here's a comparison of cameras across the iPhone generations as well as two canon point-and-shoot professional-level cameras: http://campl.us/iPhone-Camera-Comparison
I would've liked to see an iPhone 4S photo with HDR enabled though.
how does the iphone 4s compare to windows phone mango performance and price wize ?
I don't really know much about Windows phones, to be honest. Thinking of any model in particular?Quote:

You could have several tubs full of cooking cream for the price of an iPhone 4S.Quote:

It seems you may be right... and I'm not sure :eek:Quote:

But for now... I will warm up for that by eating cake.
Here is one with more complex stuff.. He even times it against his iPhone 4S and their response times are basically identical.

Indeed, I think I saw that one. I guess Baja was right... I did say I was going to eat my words...Quote:

Mmm, perhaps Apple has some more advanced stuff in it's pipeline for Siri. We'll see over time I guess. (Not that I necessarily expect it would come to the 4 even if it didn't though.)
Here's Anandtech's review of the 4S... a brilliant in-depth review with some very interesting facts about the CPU (as well as other components) such as:
Quote:
Apple's A5, first introduced with the iPad 2, keeps process technology the same while introducing a brand new CPU and GPU. The A5 integrates two ARM Cortex A9 cores onto a single die. The improvement over the A4 is tremendous. At the single core level, Apple shortened the integer pipeline without reducing clock speed. With a shorter pipeline the A5 gets more done per clock, and without decreasing clock speed the A5 inherently achieves better performance at the same clock. The move to the Cortex A9 also enables out-of-order instruction execution, further improving architectural efficiency. I've heard there's a 20% increase in performance per clock vs. the Cortex A8, but combine that with the fact that you get two A9s vs a single A8 in last year's design and you get a pretty big performance increase.
There are several situations where the A5's two cores deliver a tangible performance benefit over the A4's single core. Like Android, iOS appears to be pretty well threaded. Individual apps and tasks can take advantage of the second core without a recompile or version update. The most obvious example is web browsing.
