Oh, yeah, and I use it as a phone. AT&T coverage is as good as, if not better than, any in our area.

The mapping app I use a ton, but what is the barcode app? Curiosity is piqued.

I don't have an iPhone, but I'm on an iPod Touch right now. I live on this thing since I don't have a computer
of my own and I love it, even without the phone or camera. Its jailbroken, which allows alot of cool stuff, but I'm not sure if that would goof with phone service or erase contacts if you had to reboot it. I prefer the web interface to the Droid, which is a cool phone, but it took me a few minutes to figure out turn off my girlfriends alarm on her droid, which shouldnt happen. Apple seems to make things more intuitive. Not sure if this is the deal with most smart phones, but no Flash content works. I'd love an iPhone if I could keep my provider and could afford a 3g bill. |

I have one, and have been a Mac user for almost 10 years, so the look and navigation was fairly intuitive for me. Things like mail and iChat/SMS/chat work about the same as I've been used to with the Mac OS.
With that said, the apps are great, and as long as you have signal, it's a cool mobile gadget. But the worst damn phone I've ever owned. I get shit reception, can't hear on it, and I refuse to use the headphones because I think people look like a douchebag when they do that. Now that CA and NC (both states that I'm in frequently) have "hands-free" driving, it's impossible to hear on the iPhone in speaker mode, unless you spend $ and get a Bluetooth headset when in a car. My girlfriend has a BT headset and loves it, but I'm fundamentally opposed to them because I equate them with douchebags or nutjobs, looking like they're babbling to themselves. I'm on the train a lot with a 3-hour roundtrip commute, so I can't complain about the internet and apps... They're quite great. But if I need to make a call, it's a real bitch to hear, and it's impossible to keep a signal for longer than 10 minutes without dropping a call. I live in the SF Bay area, and the funniest part is, I lose ANY and all signal... 3G, Edge, or even regular AT&T... right in front of AT&T Park.

I got my iPhone 3GS a month ago and am loving it. Honestly, I got hooked on it though the iPod Touch. It's amazing all the stuff you can do with it...and kind of scary.
It's a great tool for collecting, especially when I see stuff while out and about at garage sales,and thrifting I can look things up and see if it's worth anything,rarity, etc. I like the Yelp app, and am intrigued by the AR (Augmented Reality) feature. It's a little buggy, but it could be quite the navigation tool once perfected. I also like Microsoft Tag...a LOT of possibilities there as well. I know I'll be getting an iPad...in about two years when they fix all the crap that's so wrong with it

i love it.
even though when you go onto google the phone freezes up. i love it. even though it has no flash on the camera. i love it. even though sometimes you have to tap the screen with three fingers sometimes to get the uber zoom off that happens for no reason. i love it. even though the cut and paste and highlighting of words or phrases pisses me off cuz itz really counter-intuitive. i love it. though. I do. Aside from the lack of flash on the camera, I don't have any of these problems with my iphone. I have nothing but good things to say about the phone, except that it doesn't allow tethering without a little tampering. AT&T on the other hand, I hate them, they nickle and dime you to death and their rates are outrageous.
