this thing is cool and all, but 8gigs just doesnt deliver... my music in my ipod video is already 10gigs(like to collect OSTs), vids take up at least 20gigs and pics take up 1gigs... i also use my ipod as an external harddrive, so that takes away a few gigs already...
sure the interface is cool, but when it comes down to it, storage capacity is more important...
also, hopefully apple will release the iPhone as a separate product than the iPod... cuz ipod with iphone abilities minus the phone functions could be more affordable. and i already have a phone anyway, the iPod acts as an entertainment system... i dont like when those two worlds interwine...

QUOTE(Mike3300 @ Jun 24 2007, 09:56 AM) Don't worry pal, by the time it hits Asia I'm sure it's unlocked at compatible with all carriers. I think for now is only AT&T. Yes, you are correct, it is only AT&T (its actually cingular the best wireless provider in the US but now cingular is under AT&T). It is coming in 4 days! The downside is the 2 years contract with cingular. Unless im using most of the features (especially the wifi), i dont see it is worth my $599 USD.

It just too cool, although the Camera pixel is not higher then N95, no 3G... but i think if the OS running in MAc OS X will be the main selling point(sympian juz a pain on the ass!!), saw the advert , beh tahan... so nice ~!!~!!!!~~~~ the screen rotate when u rotate the phone..~!! wah~!!! and the music album wow... If it get under RM2k ~! will try my best to occupied 1 !!!  |

I dont think it will get under RM2k for first hand purchase in the near future. It might be get under 2k but that prolly will take a longer time. As for now i dont think it will be under 2k, if u asked me but who knows. If it really gets < RM2k im might be the one who jumping around enjoying the price slash.

Infos out, need to pay an activation fee to use all the features of iphone << such a ripoff.
And the cheapest plan is $60, and the minutes given are kinda an overkill for me.

Duh.. the iPhone cannot use SIM Cards, that mean we cannot use at all in Malaysia. QUOTE It only works with AT&T (formerly Cingular), won't come in models that use Verizon or Sprint and can't use the digital cards (called SIM cards) that would allow it to run on T-Mobile's network. LINK |

What I really don't like about Cingular/AT&T is that the coverage is bad, at least where I usually am. |

Here are some facts extracted from Engadget.com on iPhone: QUOTE * The mobile version of OS X or whatever it is the iPhone runs takes up 700MB of the device's capacity. Damn son!
* There's no way to cut, copy, or paste text! WHOA! Big, big mistake.
* No A2DP support. That, friends, is such a huge bummer right there.
* Sorry, music can't be used as a ringtone -- even if it's just a raw MP3. No additional ringtones will be sold at launch.
* On a PC the iPhone syncs with Outlook for calendars AND addresses! Noice.
* It supports Exchange in some capacity, according to Walt, but he doesn't exactly say how.
* Pogue again confirms document file reading -- but not editing -- for PDF, Word, and Excel (only).
* Adobe Flash support is officially out. It's just not in the browser. Neither is there any other kind of embedded video support. Sorry everybody, that's that.
* It will take snaps, but won't record video. How can Apple love YouTube as much as it does and not realize cellphone-shot movies make up a sizeable chunk of the crazy crap you find on there?
* Oh, and no MMS. And sorry, no voice dialing, either.
* Contact groups can't be emailed as contact lists.
* Apple sez between 300-400 charges the iPhone will lose battery capacity -- you'll send it in and get the cell replaced for a fee. Meh. We knew this would be the case, but still, meh.
* Apple can (and supposedly will) be rolling out periodic updates -- no surprise there.
* Battery life is, somehow, almost as mind-blowingly good as Apple claims for calls, music, and movies.
* As we suspected, users are prompted with lists of WiFi networks if you're not nearby a trusted hotspot. We've seen this on other phones, and we're afraid this would get friggin annoying.
* It's said to be very scratch resistant. The facade both front and rear apparently just doesn't pick up marring like regular iPods do.
* Voice quality is said to be good -- not great. This post has been edited by mikelee: Jun 27 2007, 11:36 AM |

I was in the US few weeks ago in June and was hoping I could get my hands on this masterpiece. However, note that it will be tied to the US network Cingular on a contract basis.
Watch out for version 2 which would come with higher resolution camera.

Wow the anticipation for the I-phone is really building up towards its launch, can wait for it to be launch in asia, but i really hope we wouldn't have to be tie in with any fix line application with any of the major telco operators.
