As for your Sprint plan you mention, $29.99 is a BASIC 200 min plan. No free m2m minutes & the mins start at 9. It's $10 more if you want m2m mins + nights beginning at 7 with Sprint. That's $39.99 so far.. Let's go w/ the avg everyday plan & compare if you will

Sprint: 450 mins $40, Unlimited text $10, Unlimited SprintVision (internet) $15, Unlimited navigation $10 = $75 + taxes/fees a month

AT&T: 450 mins $40, iPhone data plan $20, Unlimited text $20 = $80 + taxes/fees a month

That's $5 more a month than Sprint with WAY better service & NO roaming charges. My mom's sprint phones goes into "digital roaming" mode when she comes over my house & refuses to answer calls because of the fees which I find ridiculous. AT&T does not charge nor do they have "digital roaming"..

Don't mean to blow up this post, I apologize but it gets old when people compare other services before bringing out the facts.

Or if you don't text as much and don't mind the 250 texts a month it's 20 bucks cheaper (not including taxes) it's 39.99 for 450 min (free m2m and after 7) and an extra 20 for iphone data (unlimited internet/mail)

Just go with whatever you like. Why can't we all just get along?

the iphones a really awesome phone with great capabilities and with apple updating its software every quater months or more, who knows what changes they will make within the year to it, the iphone has truley unleashed a new generation of cell phones cant wait to see the iphone 2 this summer "i said too much"

+ = wifi, youtube, flash browser, 2mp cam (even tho my tilt has a 3mp) ota itunes store, 8gb hard drive, touchflow, visual voicemail, apples all repair warranty, google maps... on and on... and then with at&t you have one of the largest all digital network voice and data with the largest roaming area.

- = no mms, phone software is pretty poor, no stereo bluetooth, no a2dp, price point and some other minor issues.


otherwise if you have the money
-----
hmmm i wonder what company that is

Nah, the novelty wore off really quickly and I'm longing for something more robust and more capable. Like a Sony Ericsson W960i

buttons on the sony phones are super tiny and to close together. I have real small hands (xs- gloves) and it's too small for my fingers.
I bought one when they came out three years ago? and I took it back the same day.

I've been using a K750i for about 2 years with no problem. My fingers aren't exactly fat.

I dunno... I'm just a SE fan at heart, so I have to go back.

I was sick for over a week last month and had my phone turned off the entire time.
I must admit that I didn't miss my phone

Hey, i'm not putting down the SE. I liked it at first, which is why I bought it back then...just didn't fit my hand right.

yes they offer ringtones on itunes you buy the song and then build the ringtone and build the ringtone that you want then by the ringtone all together the ringtone is 1.80 compared to 250 a tone for my sprint phone thats pretty bad ass. . . and its my favorite part of the song which is kick ass. . . if you have a make you can build ringtones in garage band and NOT have to pay for them maby you can buy some tv shoes or movies or something off itunes . . . they have audio books as well

You can buy and rent movies off iTunes now, maybe you should think about that.

If people haven't figured out how to mod/unlock their iPhones/iPod Touch by now, they haven't been on the internet for quite some time.

I don't buy ringtones from itunes. It's a freakin' rip off. You have to pay to make songs you already own (CD) to turn them into a ringtone. I use iphoneringtonemaker program to make my own custom ringtones. It cost 15 bucks, but I can make as many custom ring tones my heart desires!

I don't have time to watch movies/TV shows on my iPhone! If I want to watch a movie, I have a 42" Sony LCD TV for that.
I still want to buy ringtones from iTunes... I really need to figure that out.
