$8000-8500 right now. It was all the way up to $13500 before. Ridiculous.

That is FUCKING ABSURD

Im a loyal Apple Computer User... yet my needs for a phone are much better off with Android because of how well Gmail works on one...

Basically, I have about 3 emails synced to one Gmail inbox, color coded and tagged based on each individual email. On the Android phone, it also has these labels/tags

Can the iPhone inbox organize my emails in one inbox by telling me which address received each email?

This is the 2nd thing that will make or break my purchase.

I've actually never synced up everything to my 4 when I had it for a week, so I want to know how some of you do this on your iPhones.

I've been thinking about this, but always forget to google the answer. Hopefully someone can have a response for me by the time I wake up!

Thank You!

that wasnt my question
its how efficient is the inbox for organization

like.. if i have multiple emails, can the app color code or somehow have individual tags for each separate account in one mailbox?

or is it like blackberry in which each account has its on individual inbox + a big one with everything in it

Oh


For all those wondering about the 60 phones that got caught and denied boarding was a SIN TAT shipment from someone I know. The person that got denied actually has his own store in Sin Tat


Due to mass amount of Lithium Ion Batteries they are known to blow up (from Cathay Pacific)

Unless you are bringing it for personal use IE: 2-3 for checked baggage other than that it's a prohibited item.


Not just 1 person got denied flying.... A lot of people got denied.
People need to research before flying their shipment. I called a friend that worked in YVR that helped me with the special guidelines and arranged different ways of shipping the phones back.
