iphones come with shit tariffs but arent terrible phones, they have awsome browsing skills and theres some very cool software add-ons for it like this -

I know the camera is rubbish (2mp and no video), it has no expandable memory (no extra memory sticks) so i'm limited to 8gb (they are the only ones available right now). But i'm in love with Apple ever since I bought my Macbook Pro so........

Wot you reckon?
not unless you want to be a poser

iPhone's are awesome. Amazing piece of technology, look great and are surprisingly cheap when compared to other similar products.

If you think they're "posey" then you've got to reevaluate your own perceptions. Don't be such pathetic bores.

Get one and enjoy it. :)

Forum inverted snobbery.

Cheers.


:lol:

Like everything else, get one if you can afford it, don't if you can't.

I love mine a year after I got it. Best mobile phone ever for user experience and ease of use (although some people pride themselves in learning devices that are a pain in the arse to use) and has pretty much negated me having to take a laptop with me on holiday. All the games and apps coming out now make it even better.

a phone is a phone. why waste so much money on the high priced phones when they break a yr or two later? If you're a businessman, then i'd rec a blackberry and get a high priced plan so you dont waste money or internet useage. ;)


tbh, i see it as a waste of money on paying for an Iphone

I'm not paying for it, it's a free upgrade. And the cost of internet usage is included in my monthly tariff. (It says this in my first post) And if it breaks in a year, it won't matter because i'll be eligble for the next upgrade 8)

i got myself the 32 gig ipod touch (same as iphone without the phone or camera), and its sweeeeet. video quality is awesome and you get the wifi capabilities with safari and shit. on the downside, you can't install any apps like you can on the iphone, only widgets (like you have on your mac).

but i love it. i got all my pictures on it, films and loads of clips, shitloads of music, plus i can go online and check emails, go on my forums, GPS shit, etc... i really like it. plus, wheneva i have to wait (bus, work, queu, watever), i just bang on a music vid or a family guy, its awesome. i don't regret buying it. but i suggest you wait for something with better memory. 8 gig sounds a bit short...
