I am certainly envious of my friends with this phone. The applications alone that they can choose make it a top leader on my wish list. Also, the touch screen is hot. If I had the discretionary income, I would certainly buy it and subscribe to the services that are offered.

Battery life is terrible. Also a pain to get to dial specific phone number. On my old cell phone I just had to hold down one key in order to dial a pre-programmed number . Telephone speaking quality not that great. Features are nice and has lots of capabilities but annoying to use in order to access things, turn off, turn on etc. Will most likely not replace with another when contract is up. Support is terrible unless you are near an Apple store. Then they are great at helping and explaining things that you should be told, but are not, when you buy the phone.

i LOVE my iPhone. i have absolutely no regrets in buying it. my dh who is NOT into technology at all got one at the same time & he has gotten used to using it in no time at all. I wish the battery life was better (it is shortened when you start using the iPod & anything other than the phone!). I also wish you could send pictures via text (sorry, i don't know what that is called!) But those are my only 2 complaints!

I really love the iPhone although I was skeptical at first. I read several bad reviews among the "geek" information blogs especially knocking the iPhone for it's lack of simple features. I was unsure if I really wanted to give up my MMS messaging after all my kids' grandparents love receiving their text messaged pictures of their grandchildren. After playing a bit with a store model iPhone I decided this phone was just too cool to let go. Sure there is no video camera option and the camera could really be of better quality but the features of this phone far outweigh the silly little things it lacks. I suppose grandma will have to learn how to check her pictures in her email as that is one thing you CAN do with your pictures on the iPhone. I love the endless amount of apps (Applications) that you can download and that includes a generous amount of FREE apps as well. You can get full apps for free as well as demo versions of games and most of them are only $.99-$1.99 if you want the full versions. I was able to get a shopping list program, pet game for my daughter an entire bible program (online) and a bubble game all for free. I also love the ability to surf the web at my fingertips. If you have a wifi or wifi access (some places like Starbucks offer free wifi) the speed of your internet browsing experience will amaze you. One other thing that is not the greatest with this phone is the battery life. If you are an avid web surfer, you will suck through the battery in no time. You can avoid this by making sure you charge your phone often and buying a battery pack for your phone. These range in price depending on where you get them but a battery pack that is rechargable is best. Then you can just snap it on in a pickle and have an extra few hours of phone life on the go. I highly recommend this phone and if you do not own an iPod I recommend getting the 16g so you have plenty of room for your music. The 8g is wonderful if you already own an iPod and just want to carry a few "emergency songs" for when it is not with you. In all I think the iPhone is completely worth the price and will provide you with hours of entertainment as well as phone calling wonderment.
