iPhone Slaves

[DesmonsterS4RS]

That $20 for "data" always confused me some people pay it some don't  I think it has to do with whether or not your a current AT&T customer when you switch to the iPhone. When I was about to switch from Verizon a few months ago to get the iPhone they said the $59 for the plan was the only fee I would have to pay  Then again I wouldn't be too dumbfounded if a cell phone company told me something that wasn't completly true

I hate to say it (because I never have been an Apple fan-boy), but Apple has something good going on with MobileMe.  I've been waiting for MS to do this sort of integration for years.  With the OS integrated -mail, -contacts, -IE browser, their MSN.com, and use of Windows Mobile, MS should have already done this for non-corporate users.

One point goes to Apple!

Are they going to make the current iPhones upgradeable to the new SW? Looks like they've kinda implied it. That would be pretty sorry to make the old phones nearly obsolete. You obviously don't get the cool technical upgrades but software should be no problem. Looks like 2.0 is giving more of the flexibility you get from "hacking" the phone.

I finally figured out how Scott posts to the forum while in the Hill Country twisties...

I'm glad you said it. I've had the .Mac service for 4 or 5 years (soon to be called MobileMe)(which, IMHO, is a really stupid name) & the service gets better every year.
All my info is transferred seamlessly between 2 desktops, a laptop, & natch, my iPhone. It also backs up critical info every day automatically to my online storage (20GB).
Plus, it's really easy to make online photo albums, etc.... I think Apple deserves more than just 1 point

Yep. Free software update for iPhones, & I think it's $10. for iTouch owners.

just got off the phone with at&t to make a change (downgrade) to my plan...and she reminded me to not go over on text messages, since they are $.20 each, and $.30 each for picture messages.  i then asked her about the (new) iphone plans, and she said that the $30/month for the data plan included NO text messages...none.  fyi 200 txt messages = $5/month, 400 = $10/month...and just goes up from there.

2G iphone is looking much, much more appealing to me.

I would have to agree. I live and spend most of my time in an EDGE network. With the 3G I would have to pay the premium and lose my tethering to my Tilt phone. Also would lose my bluetooth Stereo headset

I think I will be on the look out for a 2G as well.
