they sell them at apple stores

I like the Agent 18 b/c it doesn't cover up the screen. I like the feel of the glass and don't want to mess that up. The main reason I want a case is for corner shock absorption, seen way too many screens cracked from the corner.

So the server ate my "review" of the mytouchkeys thing that I posted about on the previous page which is just as good because after using it for one full day I can safely say my new review consists of two words:

Don't bother.

^^Well, nice to get a real-world review, sorry you had to waste your money on it for our benefit

4/5/2008 1:27:59 AM

CEO of ATT pretty much guarantees a 3G iPhone. Wonder if service rates will increase?

4/5/2008 7:29:47 AM

duh

they would be fools not to increase the rate

4/5/2008 11:24:42 AM

they better leave that shit where it's at

4/5/2008 11:37:15 AM

they can't tell whether you are on 3G on EDGE, data is data. It will be the same price.

4/5/2008 11:42:28 AM

they probably can tell, but 3G coverage is so limited I couldn't imagine them coming up with a pricing scheme that was even close to reasonable until coverage is much more common. you guys are spoiled with it in raleigh.

4/5/2008 12:42:56 PM

fuck. i kinda want the newer hardware, but if 3G service costs more it prob wont be worth it for me. 90% of the time i'm using the thing i'll have wireless anyway, and if im without wireless, i prob won't care how slow it is as long as i can look up directions or whatever. should i pull the trigger now?

4/5/2008 12:55:07 PM

i could care less about 3g i want my GD GPS navigation. if they include that I'm sold again.

4/5/2008 12:57:12 PM

^ u could care less? Really, could u?

4/5/2008 2:02:36 PM

why would they charge more for 3G? My at&t is unlimited data transfer whether it's 3g or edge. It'd be silly to have different plans for 3G and Edge. They don't do it now with the blackberries (edge) and the smartphones (3G) so why would they do it with the iphone?

yeah that makes no sense

4/5/2008 4:00:41 PM

yea, not gonna happen

4/5/2008 4:05:32 PM

ha, one faggot makes a comment and people get into a tizzy over pricing

4/6/2008 11:47:23 AM

inorite

wait who the fuck you calling a faggot?

4/6/2008 12:35:01 PM

yeah - I'm sure you're paying for 3g with support for edge in non 3g areas

4/6/2008 12:41:46 PM

Who here has an iphone that is actually online on AIM?

Heh, I have been looking for some of you to sign on for days now.

I was just looking to see how you have enjoyed it and AT&T for that matter.

4/10/2008 3:55:42 PM

I'm not sure I 100% understand your question, but I've used AIM on my iphone before both as a standalone app and also from Tiny Buddy. I've also tried out both using Wifi and Edge. I've never had any major issues.

4/10/2008 4:19:06 PM

...i think she wants to contact you on AIM to chat about an iphone...heh

4/10/2008 4:27:54 PM

i'm on aim all the time thanks to gmail

[Edited on April 10, 2008 at 4:39 PM. Reason : and i have an iphone. but, i don't speak english, so i cannot help you]

4/10/2008 4:39:29 PM

Oh yes I was looking to chat with someone on AIM/Yahoo about their iphone.

4/11/2008 9:18:50 AM

as much as i love playing with the iphone this dude makes some very good points:

Reading that article almost makes me want to become one of those rabid iphone fanboys you hear so much about just to counteract the absolute absurdity of people like the guy that wrote it.

Well, not really, because the last thing people need is more people skewed in one direction 100%. It's probably not a good idea to fight blind rabid fanboyism with more of the same.

4/12/2008 1:08:47 PM

I stopped reading after the first sentence when he said MAC

4/12/2008 4:00:02 PM

i only read a couple sentences here and there....and while he does have some pretty good points...he also fails to see this is a first gen phone from a company thats never made phones. I'd say they did pretty damn well for the first go around.

Windows mobile phones have been around for a long long time.

not to mention using a stylus sucks because unlike your finger...you will lose it or you will poke at your screen too hard and damage it.

I didn't find it difficult to type on the iphone first go around...but probably because i'm not your average obese american either.

4/12/2008 4:47:20 PM

there are a ton of wrong statemnts in that article. I'll go through and comment on them later..watching a movie right now

4/12/2008 5:54:10 PM

^don't do it, faggot. no one cares and you'll look worse than the column writer for getting trolled

4/12/2008 7:03:43 PM

I'm dropping my service with sprint, in december to go with an iphone.

Confirmed? Looks like they have plans for a reskinned iphone 1.5?

4/25/2008 2:20:42 PM

niiiiiiiice

now where's my gps

Quote :

"The first thing people will notice: the 2nd gen iPhone will be about the same size and shape as the first gen. It will, of course, have 3G. And proper GPS! The most noticeable physical difference is back of the phone is no longer metal -- the whole thing is glossy black, from top to bottom. The volume buttons are now chrome. Because it's got a little less metal to deal with, it doesn't have quite as many angular edges. The battery is (still) not removable. The phone itself will be slightly thicker than the first gen device. The headphone jack will no longer be recessed, and will finally be flush with the body. The device itself uses roughly the same size and resolution screen as the first generation product. No solid word on battery life or storage capacity. "

I guess it's bigger because of the 3g chip requirements?

4/25/2008 5:21:15 PM

i just read an article submitted to digg that said June 9th is the expected release date for the 3G/GPS iphone.

4/25/2008 7:49:17 PM

Just as long as it's out by August I'll be happy.

4/25/2008 11:10:05 PM

holy GPS batman, I'm in

4/26/2008 9:58:04 AM

Anybody wanna buy mine... like now? I gotta move this thing before it's worthless

4/26/2008 10:09:56 AM

you should be trying to sell this to a non-technical person. anyone here that would buy this phone is absolutely nuts.

4/26/2008 10:32:08 AM

Yeah.. I'm gonna put it on CL. I've got a blackberry pearl I guess I can stand to use for a few months...

4/26/2008 10:34:08 AM

you might sell it for double the price on cl, lol

4/26/2008 10:38:06 AM

I had one dude offer me $250 for it about 6 months ago... I should have taken it but never had a chance to meet up with him

4/26/2008 10:50:23 AM

what are the practical benefits of 3G?

3G is better than 2G because of bandwidth. anything else?

4/26/2008 12:19:47 PM

just speed.

[Edited on April 26, 2008 at 12:54 PM. Reason : are you saying that isn't a practical benefit?? the difference is huge]

4/26/2008 12:54:19 PM

that's like asking "what are the practical benefits of cable over dial-up, besides one being 20x faster than the other?"

4/26/2008 12:55:04 PM

^^^ sell that guy your 1G iPhone, quick
