We hear Apple popped out
a new phone or something today. All hearsay, but we though we'd run it by you. The $199 pricepoint for the 8GB, Exchange support, A-GPS and 3G data all make an extremely compelling case, but Apple still has plenty to improve on -- there's still no physical keyboard, if you hadn't noticed (a dealbreaker for some), and Apple has yet to confirm things as common-sensical as copy and paste, video recording and MMS. There's also another little problem for a few folks out there: the resale price on your iPhone is now approximately nil, so good luck offloading that sucker. But enough about what we think, what's on your mind?

well i'd go for one...the browsing experience and the interface is to die for..and no other phone can replicate this...also now its affordable..plus its like a complete device which can take care of everythin..available online..great device made better..jus the cam...i wish it was a 5 mpx one!
The iPhone can't cost more that 374$ without a contract because..... 199$ for the phone and 175$ for the cancellation fee of AT&T's service.. I figure I can but an iPhone.. sign up , break the service sell that phone on ebay for like 500$ and make a profit.. haha
i thought iPhone haters would benefit from the following information:
By jailbreaking the current version of the iPhone you can get access to the following 3rd party apps:
Video Recording
Advance picture taking (digital zoom, color adjust ect)
MMS (which everyone seems to bitch and complain about)
voice dialing
photo/speed dialing
Noted, i would like to see cut and paste implemented (from the look of other engadget news it should be happening soon)
the iPhone has by far the most 3rd party support ive ever seen on a phone, so all u iphone haters should really get over yourself and get onto the best thing since the original
i agree %110!!! you are the man. that just made my day cuz i didnt
know that. i hope that stuff would be avalible thru the app store cuz
i jailbroke my 16GB ipod touch and now it crashs every time i go on a
keyboard or the internet and i tried everything ( restoring,
re-jailbreaking ect.) and it still dont work. w/e im over it and i
cant wait for the 3g iphone!!! im getting a white one. july 11th
cant come quick enough!! btw, please dont call me a fanboy becuase i
like apple alot. i like windows too! i try not to take sides.
Thanks for your time guys and gals!!!!
Hey. i live in New Zealand. First to get a iPhone. You have to take them home to Activate them. Dose any one have connections with any one in EU countries? and Add this to the Poll. Im o Young to get a iPhone.
lol
Think I'll get the Samsung i900. Windows mobile based, so no software probs at this stage and more network acceptance in Australia. Overseas they're calling it the iphone killer...
