Ditto. Probably my favorite thing about the iPhone is the fact it's a real media player.
1) The screen size is a non-issue. I thought it was at first, but I realized I was only thinking it was because I was told it would be an issue...once you watch it for 2-3 minutes you're not even thinking about it...no eye strain, either, screen is plenty bright and very high resolution
2) Battery life is amazing. With WiFi & BT off autobrightness, I can watch 2-3 full length movies without an issue and still have juice to get to an outlet. With Airplane mode on I can make it as far as a extended range 777 will take me.
3) Stowable...besides watching it on planes (where I usually have my MacBookPro and a bunch of extra batteries and even maybe some mains power if I'm lucky) it's great on the go where I don't have that luxury (public transport, airport security lines, the car wash, the men's room).
Get a call? Movie pauses, you answer it, and get right back to where you left off...love it.
Howdy all, I just wanted to let you know that recently I was on a non-stop flight from Dallas to Anchorage. I downloaded a couple of the $9.99 movies from iTunes to watch. I was a little concerned about the size of the screen. I tell you it was fantastic! I rigged a way to attach it to the back of the seat in front of me. I plugged it into the plane's DC power, plugged in my Bose headphones with the Belkin adapter, and was in heaven. It was very enjoyable and it only took a few minutes to get used to the size of the screen. The only problem was that throughout the entire flight I was being asked by the other passengers as well as the flight attendants "Is that one of those iPhones?" LOL. I would recommend this to anyone making long flights.
