Or is there gonna be an adaptor you can use?

^ aha wow is that "tool" actually real?

I can so see people at the night market or people on Craigslist or where ever charging people to do this to their sim as a "service". Just like charging people to unlock your iPhone.

I'm 90% going to get this. I haven't had an iPhone since the 3G and I'm using a 9700 right now. Can't wait for this to come out the Retina screen looks amazing and 5mp camera with 720p recording, I'm sold. Hopefully the front facing camera can be used for other apps like skype.

AVS_Racing 06-08-2010 12:48 AM

LAWLS at all the ppl trying to sell there 3gs now for 450 :haha:

GomGom 06-08-2010 01:00 AM

I don't know but it looks like nokia from the side. I still like the old curvy style from the 3G or 3GS.

goo3 06-08-2010 01:24 AM

but now that its not a 50c per videocall, this means more people will use it becuz its free..

Keep in mind that FaceTime

a) Works on WiFi networks only (but still requires the phone connection as well)
b) Can only connect to other FaceTime users (so only people with an iphone 4)

It's just a stupid gimmick, pure hyperbole. It was hilarious watching the video, where the guy was AMAZED at using video chat for the first time. Wow, welcome to 1995 pal!

The screen does look good, but not as "AMAZING" as they'd lead you to believe.. We've seen the comparisons using a microscope or a macro camera lens.. but to your eyes at a normal viewing distance, the difference between 326 dpi IPS and 240 dps AMOLED isn't going to be much to the naked eye. It's better for sure, but not AMAZING like fanboys are saying.

Other than that, I like the design. They did just enough to be worthy of an upgrade. In a way that's extra funny, because idiots with 3 year plans are stuck trying to get rid of their 3GS now :lol

well like everything apple, they'll take available technology and make it mainstream. Iphone 4 will be to video chat like itunes was for downloading music.

To me Apple is like China, they counterfeit. But unlike china, they do it so ppl loves them and think they're revolutionary lol.

when has dropping your phone NOT been a concern, regardless of maker?;)

I really want this but i need 64GB. 32GB does not cut it anymore, at least for me. HD pr0n. that'll fill up your phone fast.

hotjoint 06-08-2010 07:11 AM

New phone looks great but I'll wait for the Iphone 5 before upgrading from my 3g

Cuz I'm not a phome whore like everyone else :). My average phone lifecycle is 5 years. I'm happy with my 3g :thumbsup:

At first glance seems like a neat toy, but no way I'm switching from my Blackberry. 90% of the people I know are on BB and PIN & BBM communication are used a lot for work and personally I really hate typing on touch screens.

NEXUS ONE

i will continue to say this..becuz functionality>looks

Android is only getting better. adapt now b4 it invades our TVs and Cars

!LittleDragon 06-08-2010 11:58 AM

100% I'm going to get this.... and 100% it's going on Craigslist right afterwards. I have a lot of Fido dollars and they don't have a single phone I want. Going from WinMo to Android because the next WinMo seems to be as crippled as the iPhone. Figure I could get around 700-800 bux for the iphone 4, that'll get me a real nice Android phone.

gdoh 06-08-2010 12:01 PM

can some1 explain to me whats so good about the android?

Hehe 06-08-2010 12:45 PM

^

Truly open platform
tons of resources online via community,
awesome interface (each manufacturer adds their own touch. Even hacks out there to modify the look and functions to your need) comparing to the dated/boring iphone interface, heck, you can even imitate iphone's look if that's what you are after.
easy to unlock
full support of google apps (if you get a data plan you will know that the possibilities are endless)....
Flash on froyo
too many to list.

I'm gonna get iphone with my gf's fido dollar the first day and sell it on CL... :D

Fafine 06-08-2010 01:17 PM

^ thats a good idea but i only got 83 fido dollars...

Psykopathik 06-08-2010 01:22 PM
