You can barter when you're married right?

Re: iPhone
 

I went to two "authorized dealers" this weekend only to find out not all dealers sell the iphone. I was told I would have to go to Best Buy or Wal-Mart, or an AT&T corporate store. Since then I've been reading that you can't just switch the sim cards. The phone will only work with the sim that the phone is activated with and the line that has the data plan for it. So now I can choose to do the $399 early upgrade or just wait until December when I'll be eligible for a discounted upgrade. Guess I'm just going to wait it out. Plus there's supposed to be a new model coming out this summer.

You might be able to use your wife's upgrade for your phone...

A buddy of mine lost his phone while we were snowboarding in the backcountry last year. His wife was eligible for upgrade, and since they're on the same contract, they were able to use that to get him a new phone.

So they let me use my 2nd line upgrade so I'm sporting a new 16gb iPhone today! Loving this thing already. I can tell it's going to be a serious addiction.

Re: iPhone
 

Congrats matty, enjoy it!

Re: iPhone
 

I'm totally addicted already, just what I needed another gadget addiction LOL

I can't believe how many cool apps there are, and so many of them are free

Now you can moderate this site from wherever you are!

Next step...Matty voicing-over a commercial "Wanna know what the release fee for Antwaan Randle-El is if we cut him next summer?...There's an app for that" (as he expands the Warpath Cap page on his iPhone screen)

Re: iPhone

JLC would use it religiously and never give credit.

Re: iPhone
 

so what are some your guys must have apps?

Re: iPhone
 

Aww man I can't wait. My Verizon contract is up in July, and then it's Iphone time for me. My dad has one, and I've played with it a few times. Pandora is obviously sweet. The "what's close" app that uses GPS to give you your proximity to anything from hardware stores to coffee shops is pretty sick too. I also like APOD (astronomy picture of the day). I'm itching to get it. I'm so over my Blackberry.

Re: iPhone
 

A few of my favorites:
-Facebook
-The Weather Channel
-To Do (simple, free to do list app)
-Fox Sports
-Google (allows voice recognition searches)
-iTalk (voice recorder, but will be obsolete when apple releases its own recorder as part of its big upgrade later this month)
-Dialer (voice dialing using contacts)
-iTranslate
-WhitePages
-Flixster (movie listings, reviews, and trailers)
-Google Earth
-Pandora
-Kindle (plenty of free books to download)
-Scramble (boggle-like game)
-Shazam (music recognition)
-What's on? (TV channel listings)

There are a few more I have, but I don't usually spend money on apps, so these are the free ones I use. I also have a paid app to use my hotmail account (never felt like switching to gmail) called mBox Mail. Works well.

No I haven't. How would I do that? Does it risk my warranty?

Is jailbreak an app?
