personally the Iphone is not worth it.. if you have the money to spend on an Iphone then you need to invest it and make more on top of it.. if you seriously think your gonna use the Iphone like the commercial does then your sadly mistaken.. i for one dont have time to play itunes, scroll through pictures and surf the web while in my car driving like i'm doing 90% of my day.. but to each his own.. the fone is 600 now but other fones will come and the Iphone will be forgoten.. they have already come out with a new blackberry that is way better then the Iphone in my opinion

hmmm well you might not but heres my average day

wake up take a shower
use my iphone to text or call my friends and see whats going down
get into my car and plug my iphone into my monster cable and listen to jams
hmmm i need a pick me up
search maps for nearest starbucks
get coffee, while im waiting in line i get directions from the starbucks to the nearest blockbuster to get movies for later that evening
check my myspace and surf IA while drinking coffee
use the iphone to call my friends and meet up with them
they are at ______ on _____ st. search for that place and meet up with friends
hey lets go play some poker at the indian casino
i need some funds... search maps for nearest B of A from where im at
use safari to go to bankofamerica.com and check on my funds
use maps to search for nearest indian casino to play poker
hey lets go to pf changs.... search for nearest pf changs and call to make reservations
keep in mind every time i use my car im using the ipod from my iphone to listen to my music

i dunno i just keep wishing i had the iphone it just seems so useful to have the internet and the yellowpages plus the world atlas plus 8 gigs of your favorite jams all in one

oh yea... its also a phone

if your like the normal person with a busy life 200 messages is in a day.. probably in a hour being in college like me and having a girlfriend that sends you messages that say "hey" every 5 minute.. i say get it and let me see it lol

i used to have g/f that were ages 16/20 that would send 1 million text every day and I had to get a unlimited plan... but now i have a g/f thats 22 and more mature and she actually calls me when she wants to talk
