iImportant iDiscussion iOver iA iPhone.

Post by Kixxe »

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone

Okay, so we got a phone with a mp3 player, a movie player and Internet. Or rather a computer that also acts like a phone.

you know I'm against Miltie appliances in the first place, i need a phone with a camera and a mp3 player and GPS and a pencil and a Frisbee as much as i need a toaster with Internet access. Why not buy the things seperatly, get things that really work and do what they suposed to instead of adding more complexety to phones when all they really need to do is phone? (and a couple of other MINOR options)


also, look at the price:
The initial U.S. release will be offered in two configurations with two different prices, based on a 2-year phone service contract: a 4 GB model for $499, and an 8 GB model for $599.
599 US dollars ey? where have i heard that before? :roll:

oh, and 2 year service contract? Where's the Pay as you go option? :/

Cisco systems actually owns the trademark "iPhone" and they're planning to sue over it :shock:

I just love throwing all the features into one device so when your MP3 player runs out of battery you don't have a phone anymore.

Anything above 50├óÔÇÜ┬¼/$100 is too much for a silly phone.

This applies to any Apple product with the minor exception of their notebooks which aren't entirely useless.

Nobody here uses them as video phones. Rather we use it to download ringtones/games, Instant messaging, and email.
