Iphone 3g July 11th, whose getting one?
 
Ive owned an iphone for about a year and could not be happier. Just sold my 1s generation iphone for $250 and cant wait to get the new one for $200. :mrgreen:

So whose gonna get it?

DropTopChevy 07-07-2008 03:19 AM

I am. I'm getting a black 16GB hopefully.

TROLL 07-07-2008 03:24 AM

i'm planning to get one, but after the first wave of madness. buy them all though, make my aol stock go up :)

OMGz Turbo 07-07-2008 07:03 AM

ill end up with one, but not right away haha

you guys do realize that the money you're "saving" is going to get taken right back with the plan that comes with the new IPhone right? You'll end up spending more in a year with the new phone + the plan than you would if you bought one for $400 and the plan when they came out...

You relize i already have a iphone and pay extra already because of the internet and visual voicemail

I'm tryin to unload my ipod touch now, because once these come out, I have a feeling the price of touches is going to drop too.

Vr-4-Life 07-07-2008 01:31 PM

I requested off for this and found that i cant get the advertised price

If you are a current customer of attt and your not eligable for an upgrade then you have to pay 399 or 499...

I will NOT be getting one.
While its a cool device, the 60$ per month unlimited data plan, PLUS 20$ for unlimited text messages it total ass rape.

matthenny 07-07-2008 03:03 PM

i wont for 1 reason
im not a bandwagon hopper needing to get the latest and coolest phone that comes out

TROLL 07-07-2008 03:08 PM

its got nothing to do with the bandwagon for me... the phone delivers in a million different ways.

i know its not cheap, but for what it offers its well worth the difference in cost for me.

Same here. But sadly, I am not, and will not, become an AT&T customer to get this phone...


So instead, ill get the Dare instead.

Well im a cell phone freak and i get the best next thing, for the past year ive owned one cell phone which is very very weird, the 1st gen iphone, time to upgrade.

The iphone has anything you will ever need on the go.

The plan is $30 on top of your monthly bill+ Whatever text u want. Pricey... Yes, but well worth it.

Drftpretty 07-07-2008 03:24 PM

Cant do it, July 11th Ill be driving from Chick-Fil-A to Chick-Fil-A in a cow suit getting free value meals.

TROLL 07-07-2008 03:40 PM

f that..i know a few friends who are getting them.

huuuuge waste of money. for that alone i have 2 sidekick lx's unlimited txt, pic txt, 6mgs of email, aim, unlimted internet...and i pay 100 bucks and have 3000 mins.

TROLL 07-07-2008 06:40 PM

sorry dude, 100 sidekicks still wouldnt be as intuitive and easy to use, awesome web browsing, and unlimited potential for new programs to be designed for them from now until eternity.

and i'm pretty sure that THESE PEOPLE who are already lined up in front of the Apple store in Times Square would agree with me... haha.

DPancoast 07-07-2008 11:02 PM

Im not sayin that the IPhone isnt badass. I just wanted to mention that little tidbit. I got my IPhone for Xmas (thanks to my gf jen.) and I love it to death (except for the short battery life while surfing the net haha). Can't really argue with it at all because it has given me 0 problems and helped me immensely when it counted most.

TROLL 07-07-2008 11:07 PM

yeah i thought it was slightly more expensive over the course of 2 years but i didnt do the math on it.

and in somewhat related news, i saw a new commercial tonight that i thought was pretty good... speaking of phones that claim to beat the iphone: http://youtube.com/watch?v=mcD2FxNO49k

DPancoast 07-07-2008 11:20 PM

the math does work out to be more expensive, but who cares really. Only really matters if you care THAT much about where your money goes. That is a cool commercial
