Yes, and I NEVER USE IT. If i want to take pics, ill use a damn camera.
Actually, phones are vital for life, internet is getting CLOSE to that, but as i stated, there are other options.
Of course, but you and i both know what im talking about. I mean, is it really THAT hard to ask someone the score of a baseball game? Its probably faster too...
See above.
So now its necassary to check the score of a baseball game, check your MySpace page...or post on the Siccness? Cmon bro, you are NOT winning that argument by any means.

thats coo they are bringing a new one out and cutting the price, but honestly, they didnt do that much for me to really want one when I have the original one already, and I can update most of the stuff.
there are some other things that they need to focus on fixing/adding, and it doesnt look like they addressed these issues with the new one. Although 3G and GPS is cool, its not enough for me to be pissed about picking the original one up.

Kayvee, at&t is going to subsidize $200 of the price so I imagine the 8gb will still be $399 at full pop.
And I'll say it ONE MORE TIME lol: The $199 and $299 prices are for NEW or EXISTING CUSTOMERS that qualify for upgrade....Qualifying for an upgrade usually means you have 3 months or LESS on your contract. Unless there are underlying circumstances.

How can I find out how many months are left on my contract? What if i have been with ATT for 6 years? Will I get a better deal? Can I get a better deal if I have been out of contract for a year? Is it cheaper to upgrade online than in the store? What about over the phone? When does this come out? Does it have 3g? What about video capabilities? Do they have a 16gb model? What about a blue one or red one? Will the touchscreen still work in Africa? How heavy is it? Can I put it in my back pocket sit on it and not break it? Does it vibrate and ring at the same time? Can I put rock and rap music on it, or just one type? Can I bring it to the gym? Can I watch videos on it?
i heard if you get a new contract they just tack on an additional 2 years to whatever length of contract you have left. so say if you bought a iphone on janurary and got a 2 year contract and you want a new iphone in july. youll have used 6 months of the contract and sign another contract for 2 more years. so your contract will be up to 3.5 years.
and there aint much on this new iphone that i cant do on my phone already. 3g is not worth it and they data plan for the 3g iphone is $30 a month compared to the $20 data plan for the edge service.
so fuck 3g and wait for the iphone3

i feel you mark!,lmao.....sum people these days!....thats wut a fucking contract is for !...and as much as theyre mostly likely gonna be on demand im sure that if ur time aint up its like marky marky said,....ur s.o.o.l!....and ay mark,...is 8 for 199 alot of memory for these phones?..or am i better off getting the 16,..i have a flip smartphone by cingular and alot of times i always get a message that pops up saying not enough mempry or clear sum storage or sum shit,..im not sure how much memory it came with when i bought thats why i ask!....wit an 8,can it hold alot of songs?
You heard wrong....If that was the case there would be people going in every few months to get a new phone and having like 8 year contracts lol
From a company's perspective, if they already have you for 2 years or even 1, why would they lose money on another phone? Believe it or not, the companies DO buy them at full cost. They eat or "subsidize" some or all of that cost if you're in the last couple months of your contract or are a new customer because they will make it back during the course of the contract.
Every cellphone company does it this way so it's nothing new.
they probably have a limit that you cant rack up more then 4-5 years of contract service til they cut you off. but if your a business and think about this. would you rather get guaranteed money for 1.5 years or would you sell them another phone at discount to get guarenteed money for 3.5 years? not to mention the extra $10 per month they receive from the new data plan costing thats an extra $240 per 3g iphone sold.
but anyways did a lil searching on it and found this
Update: Arstechnica was able to speak to an AT&T representative who claims that if existing iPhone owners buy an iPhone 3G, the new 2 year contract replaces the current contract rather than extending it.
so i guess you can only get out of the 2 year contract if you already have a iphone and want to upgrade to the 3g iphone but then itll be replaced by a new 2 year contract anyways. other then that they just extended your contract (just like nextel and sprint do) for 2 more years on top of your remaining contract.
yes i know people dont pay, but its like that in any industry, cars, jewerly, eletronics, homes, etc.
