thats crazy! you could buy a laptop,cellphone, and an ipod for that.. and still have money left over..

[Carlos_E]

I bet the bids are fake!!!

[TR'05]

The stress test was actually pretty funny!

Carlos, if you could post some pics of yours, that would be awesome (if you have the time).

Also, how is the size? The only complaint I can think of is it being pretty bulky in my pocket.

Here are a few picts for size comparison.

The iPhone thickness is thinner than an iPod video and slightly thicker than an iPod nano.

Damn that looks slick. The forums on the phone was a good addition Carlos.

I'm gonna have to go get one of the little ****ers. I may just go get one this week.

[Sir Lifts-a-lot]

A guy I play softball with got one yesterday... Set it on the bench for maybe 5 minutes while he went to his car, came back and the screen was all f'd up.. Crystal like exploded or some shit. Needless to say he was pissed.

I was running errands today answering PMs. Right now I'm testing to see if cyber-rights or hush mail will work on it. So far, no. :-(

Did someone sit or step on it?

[juicy_brucy]

Okay. I said I wasn't getting one. I lied. I am sold now.
I went to Toronto to try and find one yesterday. No luck.

[TR'05]

Looks great- and much smaller than I had anticipated. I have the Razor now and looks like it will be getting replaced in the near future.

thanks for posting the pics Carlos!

It's only in the US now. Canada early '08.

My contract with Verizon ends in October. Hopefully by then they have a 2nd generation version out but I highly doubt it. I wish I could test one out for a few days to compare to the Treo's I've used. I use my smartphone for business emails and organization more so than web browsing/music/video.

[BG]

Hey, I make a lot of important phone calls from the toliet. You don't?

Next time Ill make sure I call you !

[maxiimus]

i will eventually get one if they ever make it to Australia lol

[BuffDJ]

I have a phone now I don't use all the features on I can't imagine owning the iphone and how much I wouldn't use for that price.

Rev 2 shouldn't be out before December-January of this year. I'm going to either give this one to my brother or Mom and get the rev. 2 when it comes out.

I am the opposite. I don't use the phone much at all but all of the other features on the iPhone I use.

[Carlos_E]

I try not to pull the phone out in front of people. Every time I do people ask to see it. I don't want them putting their grubby paws on it or trying to steal it!

[StoneGRMI]

Man...that $99 plan is cheaper than what I pay for around the same minutes and unlimited data...very tempting...

[Carlos_E]

I feel sorry for this kid.

$500 is ridiculous..

I think people have more money than they do brains.

[manwithin]

Not sure what you mean? 500 isn't a lot for a phone you do know they have phones that cost 8 grand right? If you have money then why not spend some? I just purchased a new pair of HRE wheels for $5100 not including tires does that mean I don't have brains?

[Carlos_E]

$500 is reasonable considering what you get. An iPod averages $200, mobile internet hand held device $100-$150, cell phone another $100-$150. That comes to $500.

The problem is that you went out and spent that kind of money and are cautious to take it out and use it for fear of it being stolen or someone wanting to grab it.

To each his own..people love their gadgets.

You got to love the supra... It's a 10 year old car and it still turns heads.

Cautious for now. Once the iPhone frenzy dies down and more are on the street I won't be cautious. It was the same way when the iPod first came out. I got the first gen iPod 2 weeks after they came out. Every time I used it on the subway a zillion people would ask to see it.

There are two reasons I didn't get a iphone one it doesn't use att HSDPA and the second is 8GB is too small, Carlos have you put some movies on it yet? I was wondering how big the video files are... I'm thinking 900MB each? So maybe next year they will have a 16GB HSDPA model now that I would buy!!

I have music, contacts, photos and 2 movies, 1 is a gig and the other movie is about 500 megs. I have over 4 gigs available.

[anaBROLIC]

i am late to this thread but i do want to comment. .why would this phone have bugs or issues? microsoft didnt make it! ... second i would love to have one but until sprint sells it i gotta hold off. i have an employee plan with sprint. i get every option for 30bucks a month. i wont switch.

[Property of Steroid.com]

I'm getting one as soon as I can get to the store. It's a tax write off for me (thanks Brian!).

Didn't they give you some kind of discount on the I-Phone for signing up with a 2-year contract?

[DSM4Life]

OWNED doesn't even begin to descibe this ...
