WRONG!:D

I have the G-1 and the 3g speed is great! I also love the fact that I'm not paying for programs, I can replace the battery if it dies, and I can expand the memory to currently 16gigs for about $20. :tu

I've been wanting one forever, Carlos. I think the Blackberry Storm is more what I need, though. I've checked out the iphone a dozen times and I just can't get beside it for some reason. It might be because I have a dozen ipods. :D
I have an ipod within 10 feet of me at all times.
Let us know how you like it. Maybe that'll make up my mind for me. :tu

Chances are there will be an upgrade to take the iPhone to 32gb. If 16gb is plenty of space for you, buy now.

The apps don't take up a lot of space. It would be movies, music and podcasts that take up most of your storage space.

There is no doubt about this..and when that happens I'll just buy a larger Micro SD card to pop into my G-1 :D


Don't get me wrong...I'm not try to bash the iphone like I usually do to people. I just hate the way they keep hooking people in with their innovative products...then come out with something just a tad better, forcing you to upgrade for the 2nd time in a year.

I have tried the BB Storm with the touch screen that clicks...it's ok..still feels a bit bulkier than I'd like.

Good thing I don't hold grudges.
I bought my MacBook.
A month later, a bigger hardrive was now being offered and the price dropped.
I was ticked off for a few days.
Got over it.:D

I just had to have mine replaced a few days back because the thing that reads the sim card went out. It was a pain in the ass, but they swapped it out straight accross. Make sure you back up your info, I didn't and lost a lot of contacts due to my laziness

That pup will live connected to my macbook.
All that gets backed up to two external drives, just in case.

Sorry my bad I thought T-Mobile did not have it, because they don't have the BB Storm or IPhone, I stand corrected, :D

No worries bro...my coworker was confused about why I got the G-1 with internet when Edge is so dang slow..:D He was shocked that Tmo has 3G speeds because they don't advertise it as well.

Re: The day has come to make up my mind on an iPho
 
Now the question, do I buy it from Apple in the mall or from Best Buy.

Best Buy has same as cash for 6 months so I can slow pay it with no interest.
Not sure if Apple offers a better experience.
My MacBook came from Best Buy and they have been great with the two prior returns.

A thread on it, but don't think it helps much as you are buying it for personal use I believe

No student discount on iPhone from Apple Store like other products so that is no help.

Not sure how the warranty works from each place for an iPhone, but best buy does have a pretty good warranty for how much Apple stuff you break Carlos.

Without really looking too deeply into it, it appears that it is a horse a piece. Someone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

FYI I would buy it from the Apple Store just because I'm pretentious like that :r :D

wooohooo congrats!

I'd go iPhone too, but work pays for a crackberry 8820 and I don't want to *have* to pay for another line for no reason.
