Anyone going to get one of those new iphones? - Page 4

If you pay $500 for the Apple logo (which is essentially what you're doing), then you're an utter twat. Here, it's only available for AT&T, and people are actually camping out for these things.

Did I tell you you're all twats?

You're all twats.

That really isn't true. It isn't like there is a plethora of other phones that can do everything the iphone can do as well as it does it.

No, 8 gigs is just not enough.

It's overrated, and insofar as it's possible, it has too much technology. It's almost more cumbersome to have all of those functions on one device, and from various consumer reports, apparently the reception is shit.

Alex's Trip · 06.30.2007, 11:04 PM

I don't buy any of that shit that consumer reports say. I try it for myself and then see.

Everyone told me, "Oh Ipods are shit, the battery life is awful and you'll break it as soon as you drop it!" None of this shit has happened to me. I take good care of my expensive electronics. I don't really believe any of it until I find out first hand.

I already have little use for my cellphone. I can't imagine having a need for an iPhone or even an iPod. I don't know when I would ever use one.

It's quite pathetic seeing a bunch of fashion victims camping outside a mac store for a week, so that they can be the first to say, "Look, I'm cool now". Suckers!

fishmonkey · 07.01.2007, 06:29 AM

i'd rather have an ipod and a phone that wasnt the size of a small brick.

ALIEN ANAL · 07.01.2007, 06:40 AM

i hate phones and i hate phone noises
i have my phone on constant silent and just have vibrate.
so im pretty sure a phone built for being extra noisy can get fucked

king_buzzo · 07.01.2007, 07:01 AM

so i was just jamming yesterday, i had my phone near, my phone rings while i was using uber fast delay and it creates such a beautiful feedback i kept calling myself to recreate it but no, i couldnt...

anyways, no i am not going to get the new iphone.

ah haha ha hahah haaa. yes. well put. but it's not necessarily "pathetic". i don't want to get all melinda & melinda on the subject, but it can also be "highly comical".

that's not too bad actually, for what you are getting it's pretty good.

My sentiments exactly.

sonicl · 07.01.2007, 01:52 PM

What's so exciting about the iphone anyway? I know I could easily get the answer by googling or watching the presentation, but I'm lazy.

screamingskull · 07.01.2007, 01:52 PM

you need to watch the presentation man, it's amazing.

atari 2600 · 07.01.2007, 01:54 PM

The part in the commercial where it shows the music features with all the album covers in a virtual 3-D field...(that) looked cool.

SynthethicalY · 07.01.2007, 01:55 PM

I will wait when it gets trendy enough, that the prices will be super low.
