Are there the expert opinions on these?

I'm not an expert on T-Mobile phones but I know the g-1 has been around for a while. It's bulky compared to the iPhone as well. I have hear good things about the MyTouch 3g (it runs Android).

This list is based on the one feature I just love on the iPhone - Visual Voicemail. I could never go back to dialing my queue.

This question may have already been answered and I missed it so here I go. I'll be home in May and I want to drop my sprint phone and get an iphone. Will the new iphone 4.0 be out by the end of May?

Thanks,

Chris.....

Not till summer, Chris. That probably means late September.

June has been the tradition for new phone released from June. Does not mean it is written in stone...

Moses is the Behold 2 an option?

Seems nice. My last phone was a Samsung and, like I said, the hardware was excellent.

They are quoting a release date of "summer" for iPhone OS 4.0. Note that this is just the operating system they're talking about, there has been no announcement for the iPhone model that will replace the 3Gs yet. If Apple's patter hold's true, that will likely happen in June.

My total Apple experience is limited to surfing a little on a friend's MacBook, and I have never owned any cellphone of any type. But I noticed the "Thumbs Down" rating this thread got, so looked to see the reason. For the life of me, I can't find one - unless Steve Jobs is a CA member.

All I'll say is, when an outsider like myself compares specs and price of Apple against other products, one wonders who would pay twice as much for half the product. That would make it four times better, and I find that hard to believe.

Oh, BTW, my Apple friend mentioned above now owns a PC laptop.

The Apple faithful are probably not happy that anyone would dare question the glory that is the iPhone. :r

You're just not cool if you own a Thinkpad/PC, Android, Blackberry, or Zune.

I don't see very many, if any, "fanboy" statements in this thread, just people explaining why they do like the iphone.

I sometimes think the PC or Palm fans are more guilty of the fanboyisms then they let on ;)


In fact there really isn't any bashing going on from iphone users against other products, only from that side against apple

In general, I enjoyed my iPhone except for a few things. The self learning dictionary is horrible. Spell a word wrong and it remembers it, there's no way to get rid of it unless you wipe out the whole phone. Real clever idea from Apple. If T-Mobile gets the iPhone with full functions (Visual Voicemail), I would consider the next one that comes out this summer.

The iPhone was the first of a phone I had been waiting forever for; touchscreen with a nice UI. For that, it was worth it, but just like Personal Computer from IBM, it wasn't the end, just the beginning. How many are using IBM desktops now? Not that they are bad, they are not.
