Tested the device. It's just a tad faster than the iPod Touch 2nd generation in certain tasks and load times. As far as game performance goes, it's not mind-blowing (unless your only previous experience was the iPhone 3G) but still pretty decent. |

ic, well, it looks like programming for this thing is out of the question, since you need a Mac and $100 bucks to even get started :/ all that power and yet powerless!
oh well, still looks pretty great, will have to dl Worms, Doom, and iShoot first thing! |

I hear rejecting something is popular is what all the cool kids are doing these days because it makes them feel like they're 'above the masses'...or something.
The iPhone is a cool consumer device. It's not for everyone...but it's a fuckton better than all the clunky phones with useless features that came before it. |

Iphones are crap unless you jailbreak them...paying for apps? pfft. There are way better smart phones out there e.g. the SE Xperia X1 & Samsung i8910 Omnia HD. |

paying? there are free/lite versions of almost every app. i had fun with my iphone for the first couple of months, but its just like any other phone now, boring. dads got a 3gS best thing is the cameras much improved, other wise its a useless upgrade |

But there's much better items for cheaper (Look at the tegras), same with ipods, I used to sell comsumer devices and when I would I'd always tinker with the items, get to know them ect...This was many years ago and there was much much much better mp3 players than the ipod, had much more storage, features, and was cheaper, when ipods were like 300usd for the 10 gig model, phillips had a 30gig model for 150, did more, and had shock protection incase you droped it, I don't hate things because they're popular, I dislike them because they're pieces of expensive shit. |

The iPod touch is pretty much the best smart gadget out there right now. You can do pretty much everything an iPhone user can except take pictures or make phone calls (the latter can be somewhat alleviated by downloading Skype, which is free).
On top of that, it performs better than the iPhone, is more compact, and best of all you don't pay some ridiculous monthly subscription/service fee. Iphones are really for people who spend all day on the phone or working on the go. Paying ~$1100 a year (more over the span of the typical two-year contract of course) is not very smart when you can only spend $200 once for an iPod touch. |

Nope, I am accusing AT&T of being a shitty, overpriced carrier with no interesting features that many of its overseas counterparts boast.
The iPhone device itself is a thing of beauty, but it's unfortunately locked in to AT&T in the U.S. The price for the device is higher in other countries but at least those carriers are more open and have better network features that bring out the best of the iPhone. |

well, it came in today and I am very impressed, i checked out my parents' 3g a couple of times before, and when compared with mine, it really is MUCH faster. the Maps Aap was instant. Camera much improved and the video was nice. (Won't use it much but can be handy)
first things first, gonna dl, Doom, Worms, and iShoot.
was thinking of Jailbreaking but not sure i want to bother.
I use to hack my PSP to get/make homebrew on it, but with the Aap store, i dont really mind paying hardworking developers for simple addictive games. That wasn't an option for the PSP.
But we'll see.
Any body have any recommended Aaps? |

Pandora Radio
Facebook
Paid Apps
