iPhone 4 first impressions, antenna issues, Hulu for the iPad, Michael recovers his stolen iPhone with Find My iPhone, and much more on this week’s episode of We Have Communicators! Show notes can be found at iPhoneAlley.com/podcast. If you have any questions, comments, or feedback, use the contact form at iPhoneAlley.com.
We’ll get right to the point: the Facebook app for your iPhone / iPod touch is now drinking the iOS 4 Kool-Aid. Fast app switching, high resolution icons (better than the one seen above, since that’s pre-update), Korean / Russian localizations, and… that’s about it for now. Maybe background image / video uploading is on the list of to-do’s, but at least it won’t look quite as pixel-deficient on the home screen next to Twitter.

It hasn’t gotten quite the attention of the iPhone 4′s antenna problems or its proximity sensor troubles, but iOS 4 has caused some heartbreak for corporate users who connect to Exchange servers — checking mail or syncing contact and calendars can stall out interminably, with no option but to restart and try again. We’ve definitely had this problem ourselves, but happily Apple’s right on the case with this one — iOS 4 users who need to get their Exchange on can download an updated configuration file that seems to make things better. The new settings don’t seem to do much other than increase iOS 4′s idle timeout, but if it works, it works — and in our limited testing things appear to be going swimmingly. Okay, that’s one — now let’s polish up the rest, shall we?
[Thanks, Paul]

The mathematical symbols are aligned… and they’re pointing to a greater cash outlay if you want to have (a legitimate copy of) Hulu on your PlayStation 3. Technologizer recently discovered the highlighted line above in the source code for the Hulu website, and if correct, you’ll need a PlayStation Plus subscription on top of your Hulu Plus one in order to stream the best brain-numbing shows from broadcast TV. While that adds up to an additional $18 for three months or $50 annually on top of your $10 monthly Hulu Plus fee, it’s not like you’ll get a better deal on a different game console — Microsoft has confirmed Hulu will require Xbox Live Gold when it launches on Xbox 360 next year. Besides, this isn’t like those janky Netflix Instant Streaming Discs — further down the source code, there are hints that Hulu’s developing a bona fide app for PlayStation 3. See the relevant section of the code right after the break.
