who cares about scrolling speed, as long as you can scroll and view contents properly? who cares about loading speed, as long as the iphone outperforms as whole unit? it's a misleading video, trying to change our minds about iphone, the classical marketing strategies. :)

It looked like content was loaded about the same for both the iPhone and the Droid. I wish he had scrolled down the pages before it stopped loading... I'd rather my phone be faster loading important content and take its time on the advertisements, than be "done" faster.

what was that app that popped up on the iphone's screen near the end? that looked pretty slick, had to have been a cydia app right? if anyone knows please share!

That's the qTweeter app from Cydia

that was qTweeter, from cydia.

qStatues in the app store looks exactly like that...

If you don't have a jailbroken iphone with cydia you can download the same application in appstore but there it's called qStatus.

Notice the Iphone's on WIFI and the droid isnt. Do a real test ...

He said it was on wifi

They are both on wifi. Look at the droid again..it has the bars going up meaning its Wifi doesn't say 3G

droid is on wifi, wifi bars on left of the signal bars. i think scrolling is too fast on droid i don't wanna find my self at the bottom of the page in a touch. iphone is perfect. plus imitators are always a step ahead. iphone will be back in 2010

Cody - October 29, 2009 at 2:06am

i figured it out. qtweeter in cydia, 4.99

Thanks for doing that homework. Looks like a cool app. Too bad it's just Twitter and Facebook, I'd love to see the same kind of functionality for sending an SMS rolled into it.
