We all know most cell phones need to be "unlocked" from their original service provider (iPhone = AT&T) to work with the DigiCell network. If you have or intend to unlock your iPhone or purchase an unlocked iPhone be sure NOT to download or install software updates as Apple and AT&T have placed a device in this update to render the phone inoperable. You can add and delete songs and other media items though.

Yes, I read about this in a European journal. Renders the phone inoperable and unrepairable - it's scrap. But why on earth would one want to buy a product as flaky as this anyway? Look http://www.afterdawn.com:80/news/archive/11274.cfm

Why buy an iPhone when you can buy an iFone:

The clone looks really cool, and affordable. We have clone iPods (shuffles, nanos and full size) for sale on the island. These MP3 are so much easier and offer more features than iPod.

Pedro2, sad to say some folks on this island gotta have everything they see on TV to feel good about themselves.

ex-squeeze me? i'll put my 30gig ipod up against any other player for ease of use AND features!
theye are at the top of the heap for a reason.
{not to stray from the iphone topic)

Marketing is one reason.

I just hooked my iClone up to my friends computer and uploaded about 100 of her songs that I didn't have, and now do, with all my other songs. Nicey nice....

superior product in design and function being another.
you cannot beat the ipod,,, yet.

I CAN beat my kids though!

if you beat them with the iphone, it may void the warranty.
the iphone warranty,, not the kids.

barnacle, what do you think of the 80gig Ipod?

LOVE the iphone!! version to come out after Christmas will have GPS and a couple of other very cool features.

what do i think of the 80 gig ipod?
as i said, i have a 30gig. it has 16gig's of music on it.
thats 4100 songs. i don't use the video or photo features.
personaly,, i could not utilize 80gigs! but i'm working on it!
as for the unit itself,, i swear by them!
it's the only apple product i have ever owned and i'm impressed!

Thanks!!
