    *** The iPhone 3G Thread ***

    Picked myself up a 16GB black iPhone today at Glasgow, and indeed there were stacks of white ones sitting on the table beside them :)

    OCZ to introduce affordable SSD: 64GB for €229/£175

    EDIT: ah, I totally misunderstood what you wrote there. I thought you meant, install the OS on a 32GB area of a larger drive hehe. And thinking about it more, that shouldnt really stop it wear levelling over all the blocks anyway....so i retract the below :P Id think that would actually...

    OCZ to introduce affordable SSD: 64GB for €229/£175

    Someone really doesnt understand how memory allocation/access works.... Pages of memory are by nature designed to allow efficient non-contiguous (ie, externally fragmented) memory allocation. The reason fragmentation doesnt hurt SSD performance is the same reason it doesnt hurt RAM...

    Yeah i didnt mean it was a bad thing, id prefer to get a standard gamut one heh. I did buy a standard gamut 24" before i got this, i sent it back because i decided i wanted the 30" afterall (I couldnt decide originally, and i waited for the 3008 and 2408 to come out and both turned out to be...

    Thing is, your Hazro is only a 72% gamut monitor...so it just wont have the same swing from colour managed to non managed apps that mine does since its wide gamut. eg, compare IE7 and FF3...you prob wont see that much diff, but i will see a lot hehe, reds are especially over saturated with the...

    Yes, as far as i can tell the viewers both display the same thing...theyre just displaying the wrong thing :D Using google I have read of some people having issues with WPG displaying incorrect colours, and clearing it by removing their monitors color profile and sticking in a standard...

    If you turn on the colour management then yeah FF should look different...especially on a wide gamut monitor. I use IE and firefox so I will definitely be liking FF3 hehe...I tried the RC but i went back to 2 because all the plugins i like didnt work hehe...perhaps once those are updated ill...

    Yeah mate ive looked in there, all profiles appear to be ok...its weird. Perhaps ill try removing absolutely everything to do with ti and puttting it back in. Or a clean install, its been about a year hehe. Loading images in IE, things are red saturated like they would be due to unmanaged...

    Oh and PS, I should have already said this - cracking choice of subject. mmmm Odette :)

    Ah ha, just figured out why your two look the same to me - you took screenshot right? In the buffer they will be the same...I just took a screenshot of IE7, Photoshop, and 'Picture Viewer' to see that whilst all 3 look different on screen, in the screenshot IE and Photoshop then look the same...

    Fair enough, your telling em what your seeing (though either in IE or photoshop your two look identical to me), and im telling you what im seeing :)

    Right, so close the Info pane on one or open it on the other and bingo, they look the same :P As far as im concerned and have read everywhere...the viewer is merely PART of photo gallery, hence the name...that one loads via the full exe and the other is launched lightweight within the explorer...

    K, on comparison id say this: Photoshop proofing as monitor RGB matches what IE7 shows. Proofing as Windows RGB shows no difference to not proofing at all, and matches what the slide show displays. Picture Viewer/Photo Gallery matches neither of the 2, so god knows what it is up to :) I...

    Seriously dude - put a photo in the photo gallery and click it, youll get picture viewer with a back button instead of add folder to gallery at the top left. Picture viewer IS photo gallery, with different menu options. Its not 2 different apps with the same name, its one app with 2 different...

    I imagine you can tell im no photographer hehe. If im in photoshop, with the colour proofing settings i can make the picture look exactly how it looks in IE7 - that is, 'wrong' due to the gamut, over saturated...alternatively i can make it look different by changing the proofing...

    but look at the window title - picture viewer IS photo gallery ;)

    but your using Photo Gallery right there in your photo and it looks the same?...mine doesnt. I am using an HP LP3065, so its wide gamut which complicates matters. I know that in non colour aware things itlllook more vivid than it should...but i wouldnt really call this vivid, heh.

    Hmm actually, on comparing with photoshop im starting to think its the other way round...photo gallery is the one thats different, darker.

    No change switching to classic mode here...the picture looks visibly different in slideshow mode than it does if im just looking at it in a plain ol photo gallery window, most notable on dark things where the brightness/contrast/gamma/whatever are just not the same...i remember reading a thread...

    Vistas slide show feature seems to post process the pictures, certainly seems to increase brightness...so might be better to compare it non full screen.
