Me personally iv had only once problem with Sprint in 8yrs of being a customer.

Im glad Sprint and Palm are finally bringing out the advertising. I love my Pre and its been the best phone iv ever had. Not hating on the iphone at all but its just not for me. I like having options and multitasking to me is very important feature. Plus the $$ i save on my sprint plan cant be beat by AT&T. Give me unlimited everything for $60 and ill continue to be a customer.

I guess I am missing something because the amount of money that and Att and Apple are making on 1 million iPhone's really shows other wise.

I guess by your standards, buying product from a desperate company that offers bad customer service and crappy service in general really makes you intelligent.

Palm must be really smart if they decided to put the only device that can compete with the iPhone on the worst network.

This isn't Utah. A couple is 2.

That said... the Pre, and Sprint itself, is a piece of shit. The iPhone is costly, and WORTH IT.

Imagine a phone you don't have to jailbreak for basic features. What do you jailbreak your iphone for?? backgrounder, winterboard and notification mods.

Guess what? The pre has 2 of those 3 so unless you really want some mario theme the pre doesn't need jailbreaking.]]>Jun 26th 2009 11:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/26/sprint-takes-a-bite-out-of-the-apple-touts-innovative-pre-featu/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/26/sprint-takes-a-bite-out-of-the-apple-touts-innovative-pre-featu/

I have a T-Mobile SIM card and an iPhone 3G S.... therefore I need a jailbreak to unlock it in order to use it.

And yes, not being able to use 3G on it is a flaw.... but I don't have 3G service in my area right now anyway, so I didn't get 3G on my old G1 anyway.

G1 + puddle = RIP

$600 for iPhone vs. $200 (T-Mo early cancel) + $200 (AT&T iPhone) + $10 more for the plan for 24 months
