**BuBBa DRiFT** · 03-03-2007, 12:45 PM

same exact situation for me man

Cingular Phones FTL

bout time we got something good.

**Kyle** · 03-03-2007, 12:54 PM

I am all about apple stuff, but I can't justify spending that much on a phone.

**ksinao** · 03-03-2007, 11:21 PM

i love my sony ericsson w810i and can't see me upgrading. my phone does everything i want it to.

**sirkus** · 03-04-2007, 12:38 AM

When is the launch date?! No doubt I'll get it.

**ORGANIZATIONXIII** · 03-04-2007, 08:07 AM

I need to know what the minutes, etc. provider is on that..

but then again, I'll wait til the 2nd Gen comes out..

**Mr_Mischif** · 03-04-2007, 09:12 AM

It's going on cingular, and you'll probably need a 60/mo plan to get the 8 gig for $600

**On_Her_Face** · 03-04-2007, 09:34 AM

i dont want the iPhone because its touch screen and im really paranoid about finger prints on my iPod so that would just drive me insane.

**Nippon** · 03-04-2007, 09:36 AM

The only reason why I wont purchase this phone is because its governed by ITunes. I'm sorry but ITunes owns you. Its too much restriction with what media you can take off and on your IPOD. Where you can upload, download, how many computers you can do it too... licensing...

Its too much drama with ITunes. In a year or so, others will come out with their on derivative. I'd rather wait that long that have to deal with "big brother" ITunes.

**JDMJAYDC2** · 03-04-2007, 09:37 AM

heres the link for ppl who dont know about the phone for some strange reason

**d1esel12** · 03-04-2007, 06:50 PM

810I IS MY FAVORITE NON PDA CINGULAR PHONE AND ONE OF MY FAVES ON THE MARKET PERIOD!

IF I WAS STILL AT CINGULAR I WOULD TRY TO GET THE APPLE PHONE BUT I LOVED MY 8525 (THANKS ATIF) AND MY 8525 WHEN I HAD IT

**thinkfast®** · 03-06-2007, 12:30 PM

can you d/l your own shit or you gotta go thru iTunes? whatta iRip-off

**Nomad!** · 03-06-2007, 03:48 PM

Cool phone. Cool options. ...but that's waaaaaay too much $ to spend on something that will be dropped at lest 3 times a day. I'll wait until the exclusive contract with Cingular is up. Hopefully by then they'll be more reasonably priced.

**teggy 2nr** · 03-18-2007, 10:35 AM

if you guys are getting it for the full touchscreen capability i would go with the lg prada....since apple is infamous for short battery life, and most likely it will be full of glitches...i'll just wait for the reviews to be out and decide then....getting it as soon as it hits the stores? bad idea....

**2.0civic** · 06-25-2007, 01:04 PM

LOLOL at AT&T...Sucks to be agents right now for them...

**umairejaz** · 06-25-2007, 01:12 PM

^why do you say that?

**Dyno** · 06-25-2007, 01:23 PM

Dont buy it bro waist of money I tell ya.

**Lucky DAWG** · 06-25-2007, 01:30 PM

it is a lot of money, i'm still debating whether or not to get it.
i'm due for a resigning of contract so i will get the discounted price.

and how is itunes big brother?

if you know what you are doing there are so many ways around it, and who says you have to download your songs from itunes. just go to an outside source and use itunes as your media player and use it to transfer to the ipod.

c'mon peeps, you just have to be tech savy is all

you guys might want to find your closest corporate store.....

Agents cant get them.....Only people who CAN get them are Cingular corporate, the apple store, and apple online due to a deal with apple and cingular and you HAVE to sign a NEW 2 year contract(or extension) and get the iphone data plan...

Just FYI for all you thinking you will get them and resell them..sucks for you guys

**thinkfast®** · 06-28-2007, 09:34 AM

^^ dont forget AT&T

**The Ninja** · 06-29-2007, 07:06 PM

Lol, iPhone = overhyped/overrated/overpriced. No buy.

**SampaGuy** · 06-29-2007, 07:27 PM

my boss sold his for $1000 5 minutes after he stepped out of the store to some chick that was waiting in line

**The Ninja** · 06-29-2007, 09:06 PM

Right... how did he go about transferring his data/voice plan?

**SampaGuy** · 06-29-2007, 09:08 PM

i dont know. but i saw it

**Tasuki_Civic** · 06-29-2007, 11:15 PM

yea i was at perimeter mall today there was long ass line that wrapped around the hallways like a big "s"

**Bruce Leroy** · 06-30-2007, 10:50 AM

Hope fully i can get one in the beginning of august. I'm on my dad's business account and we are swithing from sprint to AT&T the day before my birthday. So hopefully i can get one without having to deal with b.s.

**1000cckiller** · 06-30-2007, 11:01 AM

8525 is the best phone to get, iphone ftl until around chritmas when they add 3g to it.

**Tree** · 06-30-2007, 11:36 AM

shit man i want to the apple store to get my ipod fixed yesterday and that fucking line was so long!!! but good luck with that..... those are some bad ass phone

**DemonEyez** · 06-30-2007, 12:59 PM

yeah no 3g..

non replacable battery..

web browser wont do java or flash..

no keyboard at all..

cannot send pictures messages.. SERIOUSLY WTF thats like basic shit..

and its own data plans cost a shit ton more than the regular ones..

seriously not worth it.

give lg, samsung, nokia, Motorala a few months they'll have something out with a similar interface but actually has all the features, costs less and prolly lasts a whole lot better.

**MC Hammer** · 06-30-2007, 02:14 PM

Honestly I think it's overrated. It 's a waste of money. The price will drop in a year. Just like the chocolate. I was crazy over that phone bc it is touchscreen. Turns out.. I hate that stupid piece of crap. The touch sensitive part quit working in 2 months. And more and more problems keep coming up.

**ISAtlanta300** · 06-30-2007, 02:53 PM

Actually, if you have shit credit, you can get a month-to-month contract with them; I even knew some guys who got prepaid with it.

**.blank cd** · 06-30-2007, 03:25 PM

it does send pic messages

agreed 100%. that's i own a creative mp3. longer battery life, cheaper, no restictions

**Mike Lowrey** · 07-03-2007, 02:46 PM

iPhone sucks ass. There is better shit out there.

**green91** · 07-03-2007, 10:19 PM

iphone does have some nice features though, like 802.11g wireless. but they still cost way to much money.

**Julio** · 07-03-2007, 10:27 PM

I will stick to my Blackjack.
