My previous phone was a SE905 with brilliant 8.1mp camera and electroic flash, face detection and all the other extras you find with digital cameras.
After 9 months the phone kept freezing and was sent away 3 times for repairs and came back with the keypad broken so had to go to trading standards to get a diffrent model of phone and now have a SEW995 walkman phone which sometimes has the same problems so thats why i would like a diffrent make. |

"I have had an iPhone since september and love it. Would recommend it to everyone. Haven't had any problems with it at all, but the battery life isn't that brilliant. My only issue with it is that i can't use my music to set as ringtones or text alerts as you can with most other mobile phones.

Go to google, type in mp3 to mr4 convert. this piece of kit converts your mps to be used on the Iphone. open the file by double clicking on it, if you have itunes of course and you can play the files as your ring tones.
I got an Iphone before Chritsmas. Got lots of apps and now happy I can have my ruingtones back I had on my old phone. Had a sony ericcson C902 before the iphone, now thats a good phone. Just a kid and love toys as such, so had to get an iphone. Still playing with it and so far so good x |

Face detection brings out peoples faces brighter and clearer than a standard digital camera without it. |

or download something called iRinger.net
you can import songs from your library and select the 30 or 40 second (cant remember how long it is lol) bit that you want to use as your ringtone, click on export and then just sync it woth your phone - free simple easy!!!
one big tip GET INSURANCE!!! i didnt and i lost it so now am using a crappy n70 till i work out a way of getting a new one cos once you have an iPhone you can never ever go back!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Here occasionally, but mostly somewhere else |
So, to sum up - it's perfect, except for
The battery life
Crap ringtones
No bluetooth
Ties to itunes
When the people lauding it are posting such deficiancies there must be something wrong.
Personally, I like my Blackberry, which overcomes all of the above, handles email better than any other phone, and doesn't cost the earth.

I have had mine since November 2007 so it's the first generation.
I have to say it is simply the best fone I have ever had.
Speaking as a techno phobe here I only use my fone very simply .... but you can do almost anything with this fone it's simple to use the camera is great the music is great and you dont just have to use I tunes will let you kow more on that at a later date.
In my opinion this is THE best fone out there but that is my opinion take it check it out and see what you think if you are not happy with it take it back and swap it which is exactly what a friend of mine did she had a Blackberry and found it to hard to work took it back and is now waiting or her new I fone. |

I have to say I sold out to the almighty mobile phone god that is the iPhone in november when they finally came out on orange
I was debating whether to get one... all my friend on O2 said do it... I gave in...
Love it!!!!
the only bad thing I have found with it so far is that the battery isn't the best... but that is because you will always been fiddling around on it!!! and it doesn't work well at my mums house... but that is rural essex....
other than that.... no problems at all... if you are going to do it get a 3gs rather than a 3g... I have the 16gb 3gs and it works more than good enough for me.... |

right... been sleeping on the info I deleted right after I posted it... And since I sent 2bonks the info I think it is only fair for other people to know...
re.... iPhones on T-Mobile......
you CAN get them... but only from T-mobile and they will only give you one if you threaten to leave at the end of the contract...
so if you have been with them for at least 18 month... and your call spend over that time is over 1200-1500 pounds.... try them... see what they say....
there, go at them!!!!!

I have the iphone and i love it
the best thing is the customer service though
apple have replaced mine with no quibble twice - and transfered all info over for me
i think the new Palm phone is a great alternative if apple doesnt turn you on |

absolutely
be careful though if you want to blue tooth via your built in package in the car then some cars software arent up to date enough with the iphone and wont work
check it out before you buy one or get a blue tooth kit fitted that is compatable |
