Well that would be sweet, but I don't have a plan (data). So I probably couldn't get anything that cheap.
Well, if you're at&t, you can always get a 20 dollar a month unlimited data plan, just do that, and buy the iphone on ebay, like I did.Well that would be sweet, but I don't have a plan (data). So I probably couldn't get anything that cheap.
haha, I know what you're talkin bout. On my old 8525 which looks absolutely nothing, and I mean nothing at all like an Iphone, people would always be like. Oh wow, is that an Iphone! I would usually chuckle and say, haha no. I wasnt forced to pay 600 dollars for this and get a service plan with it. Pissed me off so much when people assumed that. You know what else I hate, why is it necessary to have a whole other category for ipods. Whenever electronics are listed. Why is it necessary to say, please shut off your, phones, mp3 players, and ipods. Why do ipods get their own category, they count as mp3 players! (even though I know they'd be like m4a players or some ****)..... I just realised the one reason i can't STAND the iPhone. You practically can't own any smartphone..... or at least no smartphones that are rather large.... without someone thinking it's an iPhone. Granted... a lot of these people probably aren't that up-to-date on what phones look like.... but come on. I have a Motorola Q9 Global from AT&T. Those of you that have seen it.... realise that NOTHING looks similar between the back of a Q9 and the back of an iPhone..... let alone the Motorola logo a bit above the middle of the phone.
It's like people make a generalization of everything. They see a smartphone... they immediately think it's an iPhone. they see an MP3 player/PMP, they immediately think it's an iPod. If i'm walking around with my PMP, and someone says "is that an iPod?".... i either completely ignore them.... or just look at them a little funny, and say "no... it's an Archos... not some iPod money pit."
Hehe,yeah. irritates me when people assume i have an iPhone just because it's wider than a normal cell phone. Never owned an iPod/iPhone/iMac/iBook..... wouldn't mind owning one of the latter two..... never plan on owning one of the former two. freakin status symbols/fashion statements. Give me an Archos 605 WiFi 160GB Portable Media Player with 4.3" touchscreen, web browsing, and wireless file server functionality for the same price as a 16GB iPod Touch any day. Or even better.... an Archos 705 WiFi 160GB with a 7" touchscreen and all the same features as the 605's for the same price as the iPod Touch 32GB.
SERIOUSLY wish Archos had a nice advertising budget for the US. Sadly... they don't... which is why iPod's are seen as king. Sure.... they're sleek and more portable than some of the Archos devices.... but they're almost ALWAYS leaps and bounds ahead of what Apple comes out with.... not to mention a bit better on the pocket for what you get out of it. You also don't fall into the category of a sheep.
Thats why people buy Apple. Welcome to the group.I knew the iphone would be a toy when I bought it, but it just works, the ui glides nicely and its so shiny.
Yea, I've got the tilt as well "8925" in AT&T's words. I've changed the OS on the tilt so many times that I dont even remember what OS came with it Unfortunately, I can find many operating systems that look good, but none function at 100% (except for the factory installed OS, which is pretty boring. The 3g is extremely fast, and for some reason, it can reach all the way to an airplane at 37,000 feet in the air (just found that out my trip to SC a few weeks ago.Just figured I would chime in - I'm on AT&T and have the Tilt - data speeds are blazing fast with 3G and pretty good with EDGE too.

My friend was in the same situation and he went through At&t and they gave him the same deal where he got to keep his 20 dollar data plan, and they let him have a drastically reduced price on the iphone as well.

LOL I'm positive I've had that data plan for at least a year. Not sure if u can outright buy an iPhone with that plan tho.Are you sure even in the states there is a 20/m unlimited plan. Cause look at these rogers plans, basically there only plans that include data.

The best one is $30/m for 6GB of data, not including voice or anything else. Meaning its probably not that great, plus its limited time offer, and I am not ready yet. Stupid Canada lol
That's Apple for ya.I understand that but I don't need a dumbass preaching to me about how I don't need something because of x/y/z reasons (that don't even make sense) and how I am actually better off without it because of some ludicrous reason.
Now, had it been just one of the "geniuses" I can understand but it was a few of the bastards including the store manager who was at least courteous enough to check for inventory of the dock.
Wow.
