iPhone Day

[quote="Mecca Da Lyrical Berretta"]OH DEAR -

It's official, the iPhone is crap!

From our good buddies at Gizmodo, Here is a list of things the iPhone

does not have:

* No songs as ringtones

* No games

* No flash support

* No instant messaging

* No picture messages (MMS)

* No video recording

* No voice recognition or voice dialing

* No wireless bluetooth stereo streaming (A2DP)

* No one-size-fits-all headset jack (May have to buy an adapter for

certain headphones)

Stuff we already knew it didn't have:

* No 3G (EV-DO/HSDPA)

* No GPS

* No real keyboard

* No removable battery

* Expandable storage

* Direct iTunes Music Store Access (Over Wi-Fi or EDGE)

Hold on - No games, no expandable storage, no removable battery, no

instant messaging, no MMS, no songs as ringtones? What the..! Even my

two-year-old Nokia 3230 has all that! So, basically, the iPhone is just

an over priced phone with a fancy user interface. And you know what,

even that is overrated. Sure, a touch screen is all cool until you

actually start to use it. With your fingers. Which would mean getting it

all smudgy and dirty.[/quote]

oh no! now Mr Berretta doesn't like it I'm sure it'll be a flop in Britain...

[quote="Mecca Da Lyrical Berretta"]Lol point is they're not good (would use a more appropriate term but it's ramadhan) YOU CAN'T EVEN SET A SONG AS A RINGTONE! Most of you probably don't care but I work in a phone shop so this kind of stuff bugs me, oh well........guess I'll just have to make bare commission of off suckers who want to buy the phone.[/quote]

u work in a phone shop?

i just got a samsung u600 for free cos my insurance company got mixed up!.

is it any good?

i think i can go online with it, how much does it cost me (vodaphone pay monthly?)

[quote="Mecca Da Lyrical Berretta"]VODAFONE R GAY!!!!!! WE DON'T EVEN DEAL WITH THEM

U600 is a great phone, it's one of the phones I got and I luv it.[/quote]

i was on t-mob since it was called mercury (not quite...but it was 121) and it got steadily worse and worse.

my friend had problems with o2.

my sis had problems with orange.

3 is just TERRIBLE.

i like vodaphone alot now (except for the fact they sponser man U....eugh!)

[quote="Mecca Da Lyrical Berretta"]

ANd ur right 3 IS terrible!!!![/quote]

I agree im on 3 and the reception is soo crap i can hear but the person on the other side cant. Previous to that i was on 02 which were really good. And ive been ripped off by my contract company 🙁 if anyone knows of any good contract companies (that dont make a habit of ripping off the their customers) let us know coz my contract is coming to an end and i dont wanna go back to pay as you go coz i spend loads and the funds are a bit limited lol.

Oh yeah, you also forgot the phone doesn't support Java.

The main problem IMO is the price. £269 and an 18 month contract. (the unlimited data is nice though. Considering the fact I rarely use my phone to talk/text to anyone, my bills are ridiculously high.)

Java is not a real problem for me as the only Java thing I used was OperaMini, but the iPhone has a built in browser (Safari)

Ofcourse if you want the best of all worlds, you could go for the OpenMoko. A nice concept that could be a killer phone. And it is totally open, so install any software you want. It should also be out for Christmas.

($450 = approx. £240 so it would be cheaper if you can get away with the import duty... and no rip off contract)

iphone is imo mainly 4 ppl who use their fne 2 use da net n 2 d/l an listen 2 music. we r gna be traind on iphone soon,dnt c wat da big fuss is! its apple make so cn be bougt via their site 2. im hapy on my staf tarif n u600 its so very prety:)

@Angel - it looks good and has a proper interweb browser. Who needs calls?

Afterall it does not have many features other phones have. Such as buttons, MMS etc.

You know, since you have been away I could swear you have lost some vowels!

internet wise - EDGE is supposedly faster than normal gprs. the phone also taps into wifi - more or less broadband on your phone.

Computer is easier/better unless you are on a journey/public transport or something.

Exactly what I was just about to say!
