there are a hundred and one things that you can inspect and the list is inexhaustible

WiFi, bluetooth, dead pixels, crack casing, scratched screen (the screen is purportedly scratch resistent, so it has to be quite a substantial impact for such occurrence), loose dongles and controls et cetera

just some more impt stuff to take note??about those visible damages..i would definitely inspect carefully....other than things like..calls..screen..connection...camera...anything else?

@achew,
Yes U can use the iPhone as a 'thumb drive'; U will need to install applications for that - please do a search under 'Business' at the App Store.

Please refer to Section J of http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/868281 for more information on Internet Tethering via USB/BT.
*
whats the app called?i tried to look under "business" only saw a few but its for wireless i suppose...so u mean i only need to install on my phone..nothing else on the pc right??because it doesnt make sense to install something on the pc everytime u use a diff machine..lol..

for the tethering..im actually able to do it on my mac without a prob...but im trying to do the same thing on my company com..which im not *suppose* to have admin right...so if possible..i dont wanna login as admin to install itune.....last night i tried to boot my mbp into xp..b4 i install itune...the machine wont recognize the phone as a modem...it shows as camera/phone...after i install itune..everything work out just fine...i guess i would try the driver thing... =)

@achew,
The pass key code is on ur iPhone - a prompt will appear and give it to U.  Check the settings biggrin.gif

@aswyn,
Can't U just do a complete restore and start from scratch all over again? biggrin.gif

we first type the passcode on our XP right??? after i press next..nothing happens on my iphone..and XP shows my iphone rejected it blink.gif

arrggg..i hate windows..lol...if only i can bring my own mac to work..#$%^&%$#

@achew,
Apologies but I can't quite check it out re the passcode; my XPS in use.  See if U can google up step by step instructions.  As a n00b, I had no problems setting up PAN on my Vista so U should be able to figure it out too *smiles*

been googling whole afternoon...seems like im the only one with naughty iphone...tried a few times...xp always shows the iphone rejecting the passcode exchanging...sigh..i guess tonite i'll just login as admin to install itune then..lol

guys...lets say i connect my iphone to more than 1 macs....most of my app was downloaded in my main mac..but occasionally i had to use other macs for work..i realise very often..when i downloaded something into my other macs..and when i sync..some of my games/app in my iphone would be removed(even tho i click the option to transfer my stuff)...its getting a lil bit frustrated as i just formatted my leopard into snowleopard...so my apps/games in the comp were gone..and now i sync it again...1/2 of them disappear from my iphone... =.=

@naem86,
I'm not sure U can use iPhone as an ad-hoc network; meaning U get the Wifi from ur laptop PC instead of directly from the router.  Try connecting it directly to the SSID on the router and it should work.

Since your i3G is a local Maxis set, it should oredi have the APN settings which means U shouldn't need to tweak it in order to use EDGE/3G unless U have previously done something.  Check Settings; if U have a 'Profile' in it, delete that profile.  Alternatively, if U have JB ur phone, U just need to put those settings in the APN area [sorry I'm not familiar with JB phones; not yet at least]

@achew,
All U need to do is to authorise the computer so U can share and swap apps/songs U have purchased from 1 computer to another.  U can authorise up to 5 computers.  Don't forget to deauthorise if and when ur swapping the computer for good.
*
yup..i did authorize all my 4 macs...but somehow..none of my app from the iphone would transfer to those "new" macs...even i write click my iphone's name click transfer purchases...nothing happened.. T_T

anyway..i redl back everything for free..but well..troublesome..and some games had to start all over again..zz
