Thread: i Phone & the red comma

I love my iPhone so much it hurts sometimes.

Wish someone would steal mine, they'd bring it back though. Useless thing, it's not even heavy enough to make an anchor for a model boat.

I agree, i love my iphone so much i have 2!

the latest firmware available (not v3 yet) seems to alot more stable then earlier versions, i got my first one last year and jail broke it straight away, the apps available now are unbeleivable, theres not much i cant use it for. My 2nd one was given to me by my work when i started my new job, its not jail broken but still awesome, when it comes to connecting to an exchange server for mail they are the bloody fantastic.

I'd be happy to be able to make reliable calls, text without appearing to be a illiterate bogan and not to have to charge it two or three times a day. These thing are damnright dangerous, texting and driving. Every other phone I can text without looking (at the phone) .

hahah i think they are easy to use, you must be going pretty hard on it to need to charge it serveral times a day, my work iphone gets a good work out every day and i dont need to charge it everyday unless im using it for many hours at a time, my personal one gets charged every 3rd day most of the time and i use it daily at the gym for music and web.

what provider are you on? mine are on different networks, one telstra and one optus, the telstra one is way faster on the data side of things, the optus is crap in comparison.

I met the Optus executive who organised the entire iPhone contract for them in Aus, he assured me again and again that their 3G network is a good as Telstra's - I was certain he was bending the truth a little....


Somebody on this forum said that the resale value of their Defender was meaningless because they were going to be buried in it Viking style.

I'd like to go out with my iPhone in my pocket (ever read any Poe )

you need to turn off some of the extra features to get 3 or 4 day battery life..

turn off location services and the push functions.

turning off 3g when you dont want it helps heaps as well..

as for the texting.... can help you, the keyboard setup is great for well worn old fingers like mine...

Any touch screen phone with a QWERTY keyboard will be harder to text with than a normal keypad.

OS 3 is 'apparently' coming with horizontal format for texting meaning a larger keyboard should be available for those with 'fat fingers'

..The biggest killer of phone life is poor network coverage. A 3G phone will roam constantly looking for signal.

Even my Nokia and LGs died in under 24 hours on a trip north, where signals were rare.. The phones spent all their energy trying to 'ping' a tower

My iPhone runs 3G, Push etc and gets 36-48 hours out of a battery most times...

But then, is it so hard to plug in each night
