Lol, I played with it. It doesn't do anything spectacular. The screen res sucks. There are plenty of smart phones out there that do everything the "iPhone" does without making such a dent in your pocket. That res really kills it for the web browsing. And thent he web browsing... oh man the web browsing... LMFAO. Not even 3g. The web browsing on the iPhone disgusts me. It is slower than 56k. It looks good, no lie. The UI is amazing, no lie. Real talk, if I was rich as shit and not such a geek, or if I were the average consumer and not so tech savvy with +-$500 burning a hole in my pocket, I'd cop it. Otherwise, my n800 + SLVR combo works very well for me. My n800 does everything the iPhone does better, and does more. Except for network calls. I don't mind that, the n800 isn't a "phone", its an Internet Tablet. Its the child of a UMPC+iPhone+Laptop. The screen is one of the best in the handheld market, with a dazzling 800x480. 3g Support, removable memoryx2. I have more storage than the iPhone in 1 of my SD cards. My n800 also replaced my ipod, plays music flawlessly.

Another thing, Apple's iphone is just that. APPLE's iPhone. Which means no outside support for video/audio, also no streaming video. Closed source, money making machine. And this machine is very well lubed, because some people are gonna get reamed when they buy it. Kudos to Apple, I honestly wanted one after I watched a few videos on the site. Then I started making side by side comparison to Nokia's n800, and I realized I have the niche in my pocket. I don't mind not jumping on the slower bandwagon.

My advice, don't buy an iPhone.

:lmfao:

Sounds like someone is mad that they can't afford it :lmfao: The screen resolution on that thing is AMAZING. Way better than any portable DVD i've EVER seen and looks better than watching a damn movie on your laptop. The only phone you can watch youtube on. Yea it doesn't have 3g, but AT&T has invested 50 billion dollars to improve EDGE to make it faster than it was before. Don't bash it b/c you can't afford it. I was skeptical about the phone too and didn't think it was gonna live up to the hype. It KILLED the hype and went above and beyond it.

We opened our doors at 6pm just to sell this phone, and we had 100 units in our store. By 730, they were ALL GONE. We didn't have one left :tongue1:

Now do I think it's the best phone, no. I would probably still take an 8525 over an Iphone. But it's a sweet ass phone that makes you fall in love with it right away. It's almost worth the money...

Especially with all the little small features, like sliding your finger across the screen to scroll through music and pictures. It's definitely fun :goodjob:

BWUAHAHAHAAH! I can't afford it? Not. I can afford it. The screen res sucks, in person. Something like 320x480? My n800 is 800x480. My n800 isn't technically is "phone" but I can make calls and browse the net on it. I can watch Youtube videos. Can you stream media on that iPhone? Hype is what sells most products for the first 2-3 weeks. After that its the actual product that sells itself. EDGE is cool, but not 3G speeds. Got any removable storage? What? Only 6GB? I have 8GB on 1 SD card, lol.

I'm not really trying to bash it, just bring some people down to reality. I guess I only refer to the n800 because I am biased towards it. I just signed up for a phone service for my n800 just so I can show up my friend with his iPhone. I payed $10 and I got 500 minutes that don't expire. I can also IM/txt people with gmail accounts, and my voicemails (if people called me on my n800) would be forwarded to my gmail account.

No no no the screen resolution on the thing is awesome. Everything looks so crisp and clear on it.

I agree, it's not worth the $500 or the $600 dollars. I would pay pay $300 and MAYBE $350. And not having 3G totally kills the phone, supposedly they're gonna release the 3G version in December, who knows. But it still is a pretty sick ass phone and it'll definitely make you fall in love with it and say "wow that's neat" or something along those lines. It's also gonna make me receive a big commission check, so i'll sell the shit out of it for that :D

the resolution is fucking gorgeous on the phone, so really i have no idea where you're getting that idea. and yes, actually you can stream youtube videos, they have their own dedicated app which is lightning fast and very smooth. lack of 3G is annoying, but honestly, most places i go have wi-fi, and EDGE had a huge sudden mysterious boost in speed last night... hmmmmmm. lol. And no, its no 6 gigs. Its 8. No removable storage is annoying but certainly not a deal breaker. I dont need my whole library on my phone, and for a phone 8gigs is damn capacious.

Like I said before, AT&T invested 50 billion....lemme say it again...50 BILLION dollars on their EDGE network just for the Iphone so that it could work faster :goodjob: And seriously, with 8 gigs of storage, why would you even need more? :thinking:

Thank you for re-affirming my opinion of the resolution. It's always better to hear it from a customer than from the salesperson :D :goodjob:

That's the whole point. Instead of carrying around an iPod AND and phone, you just have to carry around one device now :goodjob:

If you haven't noticed, every phone that comes out now has MP3 playing capabilities...

You load music onto the Iphone just like how you would load music onto and Ipod, which means yes you can play MP3's. Of course Itunes will convert it into an .aac file, but it still remains an MP3 on your computer....

The Iphone is too expensive and it has very low web browsing speeds. Wait for the 2.0 version to come out if you get one. It is suppose to be more powerful. Apple was very closed minded when they made this phone you can only use Apple's music and video WTF.
