New Poll – How often do you visit the App Store on your iPhone or iPod Touch?

AiS Time for a new poll. The last poll was – Do you let your kids play with your iPhone or iPod Touch? Below are the results based on when we added the poll about a week and a few weeks ago.

Total Voters: 1,569

Our two year old actually uses one of our old iPhones (1st gen)…we have a case on it and child proofed it as much as possible. It keeps him busy wile we are waiting for things…like at the doctor’s office or in a restaurant…he loves it! Even though he is usually very careful with it, I will admit that he has dropped it a few times (ok, quite a few times) but, it hasn’t broke yet! [Read more…]

New Poll – Do you let your kids play with your iPhone or iPod Touch?

AiS Time for a new poll. The last poll was – Do you disable the keyboard auto-correction on your iPhone and/or iPod Touch? Below are the results based on when we added the poll about a week and a half ago.

* No (55.0%, 678 Votes)
* You can do that? (9.0%, 116 Votes)

Total Voters: 1,244

I do not disable my auto-correction though, I have thought about it many times!!! It drives me crazy how many times it auto-corrects the wrong word but, I love when it does auto-correct a word correctly…so, for now, I’m going to stick it out a little longer!

New Poll – What are your top five favorite features of the new 3.0 firmware?

AiS" Well, since yesterday’s poll is a little outdated already…here is a new one!

Apple actually did surprising well yesterday with the updates in firmware 3.0…there were quite a few new features added (check out THIS post to see them all). Some of my favorites include; copy & paste, push notification, spotlight search, the new options for accessories and peer-to-peer connectivity. However, I know a few of you are still waiting for those certain features (video recording…etc). Let us know in the comments what features you are still waiting for.

* No – I expected it all along. (22.0%, 330 Votes)

Of course, we personally think it should be legal to jailbreak your iPhone or iPod Touch based on the fact that they are computers running a modified version of OS X. You are able to install third party apps (non Apple approved) on your computer so, why not your iPhone. We would love to hear your opinion about this in the comments! :)

New Poll – Were you disappointed with the lack of iPhone or iPod Touch news during the Macworld 2009 Keynote?

AiS Time for a new poll. The last poll was – Will you unlock your iPhone 3G using the software unlock yellowsn0w? Below are the results based on when we added the poll a little less than a week ago.

* Yes. (33%, 437 Votes)
* No. (23%, 301 Votes)
* I’m not sure yet. (14%, 192 Votes)
* I will unlock my iPhone 3G using a different method. (3%, 41 Votes)
* I don’t have an iPhone 3G. (27%, 355 Votes)

Total Voters: 1,326

We are torn on this one! Doug has installed and used yellowsn0w…I have not. I honestly do not have an exact reason for why I have not installed yellowsn0w mostly because I just do not have a need to. Doug, being the techy that he is, has installed yellosn0w. Though, he has had a few issues with it affecting his connectivity to AT&T. So, I think I will hold off for a while! :) You can still vote on this Poll in our Poll Archive page. You can also vote/view all the past polls on the Poll Archive page as well.

New Poll – What are some of the main reasons you come to Apple iPhone School (choose as many as apply)?

AiS Normally I put last weeks poll results and the new poll in the same post however, this week’s poll is a little different than normal. Every once and a while we do a poll in which we would really like to get some feedback about AppleiPhoneSchool.com itself. This week is one of those times. We are getting closer and closer to launching the new site and would like to make sure that we are giving you guys what you want! So, below is this weeks poll. We would love to see your feedback…feel free to leave any additional information in the comments.

Note: This is not the long survey that Doug talks about in our Video Podcast…he will be launching that later, it much more detailed!!

Another Note: You can choose as many answers in the poll that apply to you.

I personally do not use YouTube a ton…I was actually one of the 350 Hardly Ever votes. I did this poll just out of curiosity and I thought it would turn out much differently than it did! I honestly thought there were be a lot more votes in the At least once a day and At least a couple, or more, times a week categories. So, interesting poll!

New Poll – How often do you use the YouTube application on your iPhone or iPod Touch?

AiS Time for a new poll. The last poll was – Have you asked for or plan on buying an iPhone and/or iPod Touch (or accessories) for Christmas? Below are the results based on when we added the poll a week ago.

We do not plan on buying any more iPhone’s for Christmas (at least I don’t think we do) though, Doug’s grandma and grandpa each just got one and Doug is trying to talk my dad into getting one too…which I think he might be pretty close to doing! Doug did get a Mophie Juice Pack for Christmas…which he loves!! You can check out our video review of it HERE. I apologize for not having an option in the last poll that said you were not buying nor asking for anything iPhone or iPod Touch related for Christmas! I will remember that for next time! :)

New Poll – Have you asked for or plan on buying an iPhone and/or iPod Touch (or accessories) for Christmas?

AiS Time for a new poll. The last poll was – How many times have you restored your current iPhone or iPod Touch? Below are the results based on when we added the poll just under a week ago.

* I stopped counting!! (26%, 467 Votes)
* I have never restored my iPhone or iPod Touch (8%, 146 Votes)

Total Voters: 1,794

I will say that I was among those of you who have stopped counting! And, it is probably for the same reason too…installed and tested too many applications!! I think it is crazy that 146 of you have never restored your iPhone or iPod Touch…that is awesome! You can still vote on this Poll in our Poll Archive page. You can also vote/view all the past polls on the Poll Archive page as well.

For this next poll…we would love to get some feedback from you! I sure many of us would like to know exactly what accessories you have asked for and/or bought…include links!! Or even where you bought them from or if you got a good deal somewhere!

New Poll – How many times have you restored your current iPhone or iPod Touch?

AiS Time for a new poll. The last poll was – Have you upgraded your iPhone or iPod Touch to firmware 2.2? Below are the results based on when we added the poll a little over a week ago.

* Yes, I upgraded my iPhone but I didn’t jailbreak it. (15%, 436 Votes)
* Yes, I upgraded my iPhone and I jailbroke it. (48%, 1,409 Votes)

Total Voters: 2,958

I actually fall into a few categories on this one. We have one iPhone that we did not upgrade, one that we upgraded and did not jailbreak, one that we upgraded and did jailbreak and one that we still plan to update but haven’t yet. My personal iPhone has not been upgraded yet though, I plan to both upgrade and jailbreak it (if I could find ten minutes to do it!!). Doug’s personal iPhone has been both upgraded and jailbroke.

Total Voters: 1,604

I am totally with the 16% that use Categories to organize their applications! Though, it does seem to get pretty messy before I break down and start putting apps in their correct folders. I guess that is what happens when you download and test a ton of apps…things get messy! Doug uses Categories on his iPhone too. You can still vote on this Poll in our Poll Archive page.
