The camera is not the only downfall to the iPhone. Anybody like NOT having the ability to copy and paste? Or not being able to forward text messages? Or how about not having an IM client? The only thing nice about the iPhone is the 3rd party apps availability(which doesn't mean they are good apps) and the touchscreen. The touchscreen is amazing! Thats its, sorry a good touch screen doesn't make up for a shit ton of other missing features

Correction, you can forward txt messages. Correction, an IM client will be available by September or you can just go to Meebo.com through the browser. The ability to copy and paste I agree on, it should have it. However, that feature is very minor. Your right, a good touch-screen doesn't make the phone perfect. But neither does a cheaply made touch-screen.

meebo.com does not work... it says javascript is not installed

Actually, every touch-screen phone currently being made is about the iPhone.

Yes, try the website that someone listed above (vx9700.com). Then look at the photos. Am I mistaken, or are they comparing it to an iPod touch?

"I'm scared of getting proved wrong again, so I'm going to make up an excuse to not be online before I get further put into my place" That's what you just said translates to.

I cant agree more than what you just...hey you all do not blame on Trevor, the iphone is the first phone he have had and no only that he had to pay provably 500.00 for it so he has to make himself believe that was a good investment...no knowing that 2 months later, people were pay half the money for the same thing.. as someone say before a phone is not only good because of the touch screen feature, there are so many things about a good phone, like being able to replace the battery without having to replace the phone, download music over the air, getting turn by turn direction, and no only that imagine now typing in a virtual keyboard, just think about those thing when you think about the touch screen, and I bet once you take it in to account the iphone will be worthless, unless it is the first phone that you ever had you will not know better.....and those are a few of the things that you cant do with the Iphone

Hey lg. tech, when did I say I owned an iPhone? I said I received the chance to experience it's technology. I still own the Voyager and the more I use it the more I hate it. Unlike half of the U.S.'s population I a choosing to wait until the iPhone 3G comes out. Then I will purchase the original iPhone over the web for dirt cheap. The new iphone does have turn by turn direction. What else you got for me?

I have a question for you who got their phone early.Does the phone come with a SD card or what.
103. lg.tech (unregistered) posted on 26 Jun 2008, 23:15 0 0
answer to your question yes, you will get a 8g card but you have to purchase the phone in a plan of 79.99 and above to be legible for the sd card.

Yea my sister works for Verizon Wireless too and everytime they come out with new phones I have to wait for what seems like(OR IS) ages until employees can purchase them and then I still end up paying the online prices shouldn't employees have discounts on the products too not just the service!?!?
