My iPhone rocks!!!

All told I have $120 in phones (4 of them) and $400/year to keep them
going. As long as I can talk to people practically anywhere I need to,
I'm happy.

If the phone as other stuff, I don't have a problem with that. But I
don't need most of it.

For instance, my phone has a radio. OK. I listened to it once just to
see how good it was and how it worked. I listened to it one other time
just to test out an earpiece. That's it. I have no need.

It has a calendar. OK. I use it a little. But I write most important
things on the calendar on the wall. It's still good that I can put it
on the phone if I'm not home when the appointment is made. I can then
transfer it to the calendar on the wall.

It has an alarm clock. I _do_ use that when I'm on day shift. My
regular bell alarm clock died (a nice loud one that woke everybody in
the house) and I already had this phone. So I have Tubular Bells (theme
from the Exorcist) wake me.

I don't text or take notes. I tried that. Predictive text never sat
right with me. It kept getting words wrong, and I had more trouble
trying to correct them than putting them in without that. Putting them
in without predictive text is a major pain. But it beats _using_
predictive text. The keyboard on the iPhone might change my use in that
regard, Maybe. But for 20 times the price of the phone I have now?

The phone works as a speakerphone. I've used that. But only when a call
came in while I was driving and I had the earphone out for some reason.
I usually keep it in, though.

So, that's it. My $30 phone makes and receives calls, has an alarm
clock I use, can let me put on appointments (which could probably be
done in less than half the time with scraps of paper already in my
wallet) and has a speakerphone function that I might use sometimes. I
_could_ pay $500-600 for that same capability, though I'm not
absolutely sure about the alarm clock that I now need being there on
the iPhone.

What are you... a truck driver? Most people don't spend their whole life
driving. I take the train into work every morning. That gives me plenty of
time to listen to music and play games or do both at the same time.

I DO have a contract with AT&T. But it's fairly straight forward to do a
trick to use whatever carrier you want, or even use a pre-paid plan with an
iPhone. Look it up rectum boy.

The screen is anything but fragile. Look it up. And only a complete idiot
would try to surf the web while driving. Figures that you would think of
that.

But he just said he doesn't TAKE the train, he drives.
And when he's at work he'll have a fully (unless it's windows) functional pc
to do all his stuff on so the iphone will be redundant there. When he's
driving he can't use it and when he gets home he has a pc there too to do
all his iphoneytype stuff.

So, unless he has a breakdown in the middle of nowhere... When is he going
to use it?

Add to that the all your eggs problem. SO, you have an mp3 player and a
mobile phone... So so stressful, lugging those two incredibly light devices
round, isn't it.... and oh so stressful when one gets stolen when you're
mugged (but the miss the other one because it's hidden in your clothing)

Iphone gets nicked, you've lost the lot.

No, it's called consolidation. One unit, one cable, one consistent user
interface. By your "logic" why not have dedicated unit for every specific
purpose. One device to read email, another device to send email, another
device to receive phone calls, another device to make phone calls, another
device to receive text messages, another device to send text messages. Of
course each device will have a slightly different UI because after all, each
one is made by a different company. And of course you'll need a dozen
different power adapters and a dozen different applications to keep
everything in sync with your PC.

That's him and he's a stupid twit who still thinks it's funny to talk about
rectums and someones anus. There are millions of normal people out there who
find the device incredibly useful. Obviously Apple did their market research
before developing this unit and they correctly found that people really want
a device like this. And Apple was right. Rectum boy is simply an ignorant
idiot.

At the airport, while waiting at a restaurant, while traveling, in a hotel,
etc, etc.

Don't forget digital camera, mp3 player, PDA, phone and possibly more.
That's 4 units, 4 power adapters, 4 pieces of software to sync everything, 4
different UI's, the devices don't work together aren't integrated. Most
likely the quality of the apps is far below the quality of the iPhone apps.
Don't be jealous.

> Iphone gets nicked, you've lost the lot.
No, because everything is seemlessly synched with your desktop PC. The
iPhone is simply a duplicate of what's already on your computer.

I suppose I could always get on a bus or train to ride around so I
could justify having the player. Those are the only ways Ican imagine
I'd have the chance unless I just sat around home or work (and got
fired) listening to and watching it.

But if my phone gets swiped I'll still have my 2 mp3 players I don't
use and the camera that I'll have to put batteries in to make sure it's
till operable and the video player (assuming I ever buy one) that I
never have the opportunity to play with unless I do so sitting on the
couch or on the back porch.

I'm happy for Sgt. Schult, and glad he's happy with his gadget. I hope
his pleasure (and gadget) last him long enough that he can look back
and decide it was worth the extra cost. It ain't for me. Not even if it
gets discounted by 80%.

Here in the US people have been getting mugged (and seriously hurt) for
their iPods. I expect to see news of this happening with iPhones pretty
soon, too. Nobody wants to bother robbing me for my $30 Nokia, though.

Hence a simple cell phone so you can call the rescue service.

And you're more likely to get mugged for one of those, than a simple call/
receive cell phone IMO.

Indeed, just like a couple of years ago when muggers were targetting people
with white earphones because that signified iPod.

Same things've been reported here. And I expect the iphone will be the next

The iPhone is about twice the size of a pack of cigarettes. If it's simply
in your pocket you're pretty unlikely to get mugged. I've lived 28 years of
my life outside the city of Chicago and have yet to ever be mugged. I make
my buying decisions based on what ***I*** want and desire. I don't buy
things based on my fear of getting mugged for the first time.

Enjoy your sour grapes.

I've lived 11 years in Kansas City and I've been mugged twice.

Hell, I've dropped phones due to belt clips being made by retards, or
because the clips break. With my prepaid $30 phone with no contract,
the most I'll be out if I lose it is $130 (minus depreciation on the
phone). With an iPhone I'd be out the $500 or more for the gizmo, plus
the cost of the contract to use it as a phone.

Nothing sour about that.

Sgt Carter seems to be caught up in trying to justify his expensive
gadget to those of us who have no need for it. Maybe he's having second
thoughts on the wisdom of spending all that dough for an mp3 player
with phone capability. Perhaps he should have asked Gomer to help him
decide.

He could make the best of the situation and just be happy with
downloading iTunes and talking over a piss-poor phone network.

Sometimes I wonder about spike1. His logic, when putting something non
linux down is simply stupid.

Where does it end?

Here he is arguing that it's better to have two devices than one. When
we are talking mobile devices.

Can someone get stupider?

Why the HELL would you prefer to carry two devices if you can have a
single one which is the same size as a single device?

He is clearly in denial. I wonder if he splits his PC into 5
different ones - one for DVD, one for News, one for etc etc etc.

And I absolutely love his excuse of - "and oh so stressful when one gets
stolen when you're mugged (but the miss the other one because it's hidden in
your clothing)"

Hello??? How often does he get mugged? The troll is actually arguing that
people should carry around multiple gadgets with them so that when they get
MUGGED the mugger will miss one of the other gadgets that the person is
carrying. LOL! - This has got to be the most moronic reason I've ever heard.

Even more true in the summer time when you might simply be wearing a
tee-shirt and some shorts. Where exactly does one keep 4 or 5 different
electronic gadgets?

I really wish they (whoever "they" are) could standardize on one single
power connector standard. I hate having all sorts of different cords and
adapters all over my kitchen counter to plug everything into its own special
plug. No longer a problem now but it would be nice to standardize on
something.
