One pretty disappointing thing from my perspective was no-iTunes related announcements. Using iTunes as your generalized device sync hub is terrible and Apple hasn't given any hints on what it plans to do about it.
The cloud sync stuff Google showed off was impressive and that's their strength. Apple has a lot of catching up to do and they need to get to it pretty soon.
- barake 16y agoIt is pretty rad. I had to swap out my Nexus One a while back and upon logging in to my new device all my contacts, applications and even wallpapers were downloaded automatically. There were a few hiccups like missing custom ringtones but overall the syncing works as advertised.
- martythemaniak 16y agoI was also pretty impressed with the upgrades. Froyo was 44mb, installed in about 5 mins and kept all settings/data. Contrast that with the iPhone update I did from 3.1.2 to 3.1.3 - first a huge 300+ MB download, then erasing the device, then overwriting everything and finally syncing back countless gigs of data. ugh.
