I hate people who get stuff to scalp it on Ebay,

Why are all of the iPhone listings getting pulled?? I really would like to get one when the second gen with the faster internet comes out in the next batch. I don't have an MP3 player and my current contract is almost up with Verizon. I was thinking of switching to Singular (Now with AT&T) anyway so this would just be a bonus for me. I couldn't see buying one if I already had a newer phone (like a razor or something) and an iPod.

This is totally off topic...but Dan / Frosty. Did you ever blow out your front diff on the LSP?

FreeRideFrosty · (#5 (**permalink**))

Never had a single problem with the diffs. The ones in the truck I believe were Rob Kass's and the spares were Roccos. I don't think Rocco ever blew one of his but I can't speak to whether Rob has or not.....

yeah it is...now back on topic......I think these are overrated. Like anything else give it a few months and it will be half the price. I will admit it is cool but not for that price, not for me. I go through phones like once every six to eight months so fo me that would not be a wise investment. If i did want one of these id wait to make sure there wasnt any flaws, and like all apple products once you think you got the coolest one they come out with an upgraded more wicked one within months. Now your left with the "oldschool" one. id gladly take one for free though......

Anyone who pays a premium for the iphone on ebay is a FOOL!!! There plenty in stock at ATT and Apple stores at the standard price.

Like I said.... not a flaw but the second gen (2nd release) will have much faster internet. I don't really see how it can be over rated. Take the most cutting edge phone and mix it with a great MP3 player.... if you had to buy both seperately it would be close to if not more than the price of the iPhone. It is trendy, yes, but I don't think that that makes it over rated. I keep phones for 2-3 years or so so it would be a fine investment IMO. I don't have to have the latest and greatest, just good timing with my contract ending.

I have an LG Fusic, works as a phone and an mp3 player. That and it runs the internet on the same broadband speeds that their "aircards" for laptops use. Cost me $350 plus another $50 for the 1 gig mem stick but have not had a problem with it yet!

Yes the IPhone is cool but so was the Blackberry when it first came out and now it's been eclipsed by Treo, What do you think is gonna happen with the IPhone? As soon as someone else get the technology they will come out with something even better. JMO!

WTF are P.M.'s broken?

FreeRideFrosty · (#10 (**permalink**))

I never liked Blackberries (service was supposedly TERRIBLE) and the Treo never made me look twice. I think apple did their homework.... AGAIN. Everyone talks down on apple products. If I have to get a laptop it will definitely be an Apple. Really amazing products.

I could really care less about this phone....

UE-Maxx · (#14 (**permalink**))

Saw this phone in person today. Really cool. Looks awesome and all the features are nice.

IPhones kick arse, I played with one for about 30 mins and it was cool.
