Start-Up of the iPhone

[ZJH90]

Is anyone else disappointed with the lack-lusterness of the iPhone's start-up. For $600, I believe it should have some awesome video that tells you that you own one of the coolest phones in the world, then it should shoot fireworks in the air, then do acrobatic effects, explode, then reassemble itself. Just a thought...maybe for the next update...

I think most people prefer it to cut to the chase.

Even if it did, you'd only see it for a few seconds! Then people would complain that startup takes to long. Hmm..maybe sometimes less is more. I'm more concerned about what it does once it starts up!

My point was that there be some kind of little jingle/chime...or even play the opening of the mac computers...and it is nit like this would happen everytime you go to use the phone, just when you turn it on...

I know what you're saying. But, you'd still only hear it for a few seconds. If you hardly ever do any resets, you'd never hear it. I'm more focused on what the phone does once it starts up. But, hey to each's own I guess. With all the modding going on, we might be able to change it one day!

Startups are supposed to be blazing fast! Thats the part to boast about! When friends startup my imac, it gets to the desktop 12 seconds after pressing the power button. I have other friends that have their computer startup way faster and that's what's impressive! The iPhone should startup asap so it shows that it's a fast OS.

I understand and kinda agree with what the OP said but I think princess has a a good point about people complaining about a slow start up. I am personally happy it doesn't say the crap that the razr said wen started up about being safe and curtious and what not. Just turn on so I can make a call and drive around without paying attention

And I think the fireworks might cause a fire hazard in doors...

I agree. I actually like that I can get right down to businesss rather than wait for a tune and/or video to play, regardless of how short.

I'm just happy it starts up as fast as it does. I don't need any animaiton or sound...seems more classy without that stuff anyways.

like the annoying motorola one at start up or when someone turns off a phone in a quiet place so it does not ring and then you hear music that tells you that it is shutting down

thank god iPhone cuts right to the chase i love it (the 3-4 times i have turned it off)

Sure--you can have the ultimate start-up--

I have just one question though--

How much of your limited flash memory are you willing to give up just for a little eye candy?

Personally, I'll take the conservative start-up that leaves me more memory for _my_ stuff....

I totally agree with that. Having more memory is way more crucial
