Those look cool, nice gift.

My contract with Cingular/ATT is up in Feb. and I think I am going to look real hard at the iPhone 2.o and some other other offerings. One thing I CAN NOT STAND however is iTunes. I wish that google phone would come out already.

How is the MP3 and internetz on that one? I have a samsung sync and the 3G is real nice. I have not used the mp3 much as it kills the batt. I need to replace my currant mp3 so I am looking for a nice all in one package.

I just got that a couple weeks ago myself, RC. Very cool phone but searching the internet is a PITA! Comes in handy and such but sometimes it's buggy.

Those look like fun, but I cant justify paying the money. I only talk and text on my phones. I once bought a phone for the mp3 player function and then only used it for a couple months. Two years later I wasnt sure why I wasted the money just for that feature...

Depending on the deal you can get them as low as $130. I rely on email quite a bit for some income, so having it available 24/7 no matter what will be worth it. Plus the data storage is great and comes in handy. GPS w/live traffic abilities is nice too. My older unit was acting buggy for a while and this has already saved my hide in that respect

It gets live and databased TV too, so if you travel a bunch that could be a savior. My girlfriend and I travel a lot and often can't find what we'd like to watch. A tiny TV is better than no TV.

I've got a pre-3g iPhone. I love it. I use it a lot for accessing the internet and i use google maps constantly. I dont have a big enough problem with internet speeds when not in a wi-fi area to justify paying to get a 3G iPhone.

same one I just got.

is this called the dare or whatever it is?

Hope you like it as much as I like my Iphone(used to make this post). Blksn, Itunes isn't too bad when you start using it. I was the same way before I got mine. You won't regret it at all.

I only paid $59 for mine.
$129 plus I got a $70 credit for customer loyalty.

my monthly bill will be $35 more, but that will give my 2 girls some features they didnt have on their phones before and give me more minutes.

I was really not wanting one but my sister got one last Feb. and I played around with it. I did not like the non-3G internet, my samsung blew it away speed wise. Now that they are 3G...and iPhone/iPod add ons/car hookups are FAR easier to get, I am looking.

I am looking at the compitition so if a nice windows music based phone comes out it will get a hard look as well.

I dont like the idea of an added subscription that I have to have just to use the phone. They would not even activate my sisters iPhone until she had an iTunes account....

Itunes is free. You don't "need" it but it really completes the phone. It's how you update the firmware, manage music and other media and create back-up copies of the phone. I think the app store puts the phone head and shoulders above anything else on the market.

I dont plan on using the phone for music...that's what Ipods and car stereos are for.

no, it is the samsung instinct
