New Iphone is released!

[ROX]

I can't figure out why people would buy such a mamby pamby phone. If you drop it in a puddle or on the grocery store floor. POOF!! It's busted.

Now this is a phone! This is a hummer site, don't we encourage tough stuff?

Wait because there has to be a better one coming out soon. A lot of people are not satisfied. This phone is to increase the market share, but soon they will actually make something that's a substantial improvement.

Hahaha! This might just be the first documented case of iPhone enragement!

Bull. There were bugs. That's mostly what the first two updates fixed. One example was the sudden crashing of safari when surfing.

Never happened to me. You probably got one of those special ones.

I did have one strange problem, strange because of the fix. After having the headphones in on one occasion I could not get the phone to work in standard phone mode, i.e hold to ear hear voice in spkr. and talk. It onl worked with headphones or in spkr phone mode. I went to the mac store told them what was happening and the guy took a set of headphones and plugged them in and out 5 times. Everything worked again, I looked at the guy and said "of course" and left.

Oh by the way that was a software problem you mentioned. Your going to get those wether you wait or not.

not really got it the week it came out so i got a great use outta mine, and when this breaks ill buy a new one, the 2.0 update for the old one is coming out the same date so then the only difference is the new one runs on 3g instead of edge other than that a small size difference its the same phone. So if you have the older one it doesnt matter whatsoever, unless the extra 5 seconds itll take to load a web page annoys you.

Yeah, that big price savings wouldn't bother me at all.

[trashguy]

i just hope they hope they expand the 3g coverage pretty quickly, before the iphone i had a blackjack and 3g only worked in manhattan.

How the ones who owned EDGE IPhones felt when the better cheaper IPhones came out is comparable pain similar to the Penguins fans when they were so sure they were gonna win the Stanley.

Like a shockcollar that gives you a ZAP!@ when you get more than 10 feet away? Something like that?

If you want tough as nails protection for the Iphone - take a look at this.
http://www.otterbox.com/iphone-cases/iphone-armor-case/

I have one - I use it on my boat - it is definately waterproof - I dropped it in my pool one day - while on a call - and it did not leak and I did not drop the call.
It is a bit big - it is heavy but it is perfect for me - I am in Angola at the moment and the dust is a killer - nothing gets into this case though.

You do have to use a bluetooth headset - I use the Jawbone.

Everything is fully functional - the only things that you cant do when it is in the case is access the silence switch on the side and charge / sync. It is easy to get in and out of the case - just two flip latches - and you can use regular headphones with it - the inside of the case has a headphone jack that slides into the connector on the phone with a regular connector (waterproof) on the outside.

The touch screen works well - you do get a slight oil on water look if the membrane sticks to the screen - but it does not affect the way it works - it just looks a bit funky - but I didnt buy the thing for the looks - it has saved my phone several times.
