The iPhone by itself.. err... expensive, that's all I got to say. $600 along with a $2,000 contract with AT&T is downright expensive as hell..

The iPhone is fine and all, but with such little space on it, it's just overpriced for internet, phone, songs, and some games. (I haven't seen anything else in it at the moment)

I personally don't like the iPhone that much (same for iPod Touch, overpriced for such little space). The touch screen is cool and all, but doesn't cut it for a good iPod in my opinion.

And unlocked phones are so much better than locked.

If you jailbreak you can video record, use instant messaging, send MMS and run 3rd party applications.

I never send MMS.
Don't Record video.
Don't IM on it, But if i wanted to i'm near wi-fi points web msn or any other 1's.
I don't surf my phone unless it wi-fi lol.
You can run third party apps if you wish.

Considering its free if i don't like it i can sell it for £300+ anyway.

how are you getting it for free?
RE: Iphone anyone? by joemailey on 01-21-2008 at 10:59 AM

Mate is in states she sending me it over and won't take my cash.

Even if she did take my cash, it would technically be free.

As i sold my HTC tytn ii(kaiser, Vodafone v1615). for £310. which i got for free as upgrade :)


RE: Iphone anyone? by Menthix on 01-21-2008 at 11:19 AM

You sold a TyTN II for an iPhone :s?

RE: Iphone anyone? by joemailey on 01-21-2008 at 12:55 PM

Question you should be asking is,

What do i use the tytn II for that the Iphone can't do?

Answer nothing. I need a basic fone only 8GB ipod touch is ok for free :P

Tytn II, - Windows mobile interface is so great. Even with the tweaks from XDA developers and Modaco.

All i need my phone to do is:
Text and make phone calls.
With the odd bit of surfing. Considering i have Wi-fi at home and Wi-fi at work i won't need it.

GPS in the Tytn II was a selling point for me and so was the slide out keypad as i've used a treo 650 & HTC S710 all with qwerty keyboards/pads.

Just made £310, £100 for sat nav for my car. = £210 left over.

So selling a phone i got for nothing works out well.

I can do everything i done on my Tytn II on an Iphone.(note thats everything i done on the tytn II not saying the Iphone does everything the Tytn II can because its far from it.)


Works out better for me to have an Iphone.
As the threaded text feature is great, considering i use my Tytn II for texting mainly i'm not gonna miss it much or at all even :)

I think people who don't like the iPhone are jealous of those who do. I am one of those people :P. The phone has its flaws, but not as many as all my previous phones have had; this is a success for a reason and if anything the mobile phones of the next few years will change the market because of the iPhone.

What the hell? I'd be counting my lucky stars if i got an ipod touch 8GB for free. :S
RE: Iphone anyone? by joemailey on 01-21-2008 at 04:35 PM

Your correct the Iphone has changed how other touch phones have worked and will work in the future.

I've nver paid for anything apple or used anything apple, infact i'm going back on my word as i said i'd never use anything apple :) :|

Iphone does all i need it for. prefect match, the fluid design of the user interface is something no other fone has matced yet.

my tytn II refreshes if i switch from landscape mode to standard mode lol
