Must.. Have.. iPhone..
 
I REALLY want one now. $200? Come on, it's practically begging me to buy it.

I want Super Monkey Ball and Trism and MotionX Poker and Enigmo and Rolando.

Looks like there's some issues with the new iPhones.

Yeah, I'm using every bit of restraint I have not to buy one. A simple 5 minute drive and it could be....no, not buying it, that's final.

I decided to hold off until tomorrow after reading about the activation issues. It will still be there, and I don't need it today.

The thing that sucks is that they're charging iTouch owners $10 to update to 2.0. And it's not even available in Turkey!

I must find a way to upgrade..

And damn, I could've waited a few months and bought an iPhone for $100 less than I paid for my 16GB iTouch :(

So uh.. Turns out there's no activation if you download it from a source other than the iTunes store for your iTouch.

>_>

Just saying.

People would buy iPhone for the games?

They lowered the price of the phone, but 3G has upped the price of the data plan and lowered the price of the battery. I read somewhere, 4 hours of talk time. WTF is that, Apple?

Well, I wouldn't have dared to unofficially update anyway. I didn't even jailbreak mine :)

Maybe if I register with a UK address, I'd be able to buy the update.. I already registered actually, but I think the Touch firmware isn't available yet :(

But wait - updating erases the files on my iPod? That sucks..

Monkey Ball is fun, I find turning a bit difficult, and why the hell doesn't it save my progress?

Ms. Pac-Man is very well done, and the swiping mode actually provides good controls.

His comparison is REALLY dated and completely inaccurate. And you're welcome to your opinion. Once again though, I question why it has to be presented so offensively.

Its called a joke. Your know, an attempt at humor. If you take cell phones so seriously that you can't see the humor in a joke about the iPhone, especially considedering the absurd hype surrounding it, then its not me that has the issues...

Settle down a little and take a deeeeep breath. It'll all be ok...

When was I not settled? Confused as to why a joke has to be rude, maybe. I guess I just don't think mocking people is particularly humorous.

Hey gekko, do you know of any sites that list upcoming apps and stuff? I'm especially looking for an MSN client, but I don't know if I should be excited about it yet..

Well call Don Rickles or Triumph the Insult Comic Dog and maybe they can tell you. Jesus, people are so damn sensitive.

I love on Craigslist how people are like, I WANT TO BUY AN iPHONE 3G: $275 lol

i posted this on craigslist:


Attention iPhone 3G Buyers and Sellers. NO ONE unless they are out of their minds will sell you an iPhone 3G for the prices your asking to buy it for. The $199 and $299 prices are with a new contract.

The true prices of the phones are different.

From the ATT Website:
If you are upgrade eligible and your account is in good standing, you will pay $199 for 8GB (black) and $299 for 16GB (black or white). Two-year contract required.
You have the option to purchase an early upgrade priced at $399 for 8GB (black) or $499 for 16GB (black or white). Two-year contract required. Coming soon, AT&T will offer a no-commitment option of $599 for 8GB and $699 for 16GB.

If you are selling an iPhone 3G, don't rip yourself off and get stuck in a 2 year contract. Know how much your phone is really worth.

-Just Looking Out.

No, I haven't been following it very closely. Really just been looking forward to Monkey Ball :D

They just let a lot more developer get added to the list, where they can release apps. So hopefully we'll see a lot more soon, perhaps Audium?

I just think that your continual brute force method to posting is extremely wearing. Maybe it would be best if we just ignored each other.

Dude, if this conversation or my style makes you want to ignore me, you are in for a rough life of constantly being offended. If my comments here wear on you, I hate to think what the world is going to do to you. Ignore me if you wish, but you can't ignore life, and that will be far more "brutal" than I have been.
