neither, buy something better... If you HAVE to buy one of them, get an ipod.

ipod phone

However, it will cost more, and have a monthly fee. If the providers over there are like here, you will also have to sign a contract; you might not be able to change your phone to the new iphones or change your plan.

Do you really need a cell phone that expensive. Well if you got the cash to burn get the iphone. Personally I will never spend more than $50 on a cell phone.

Wait til the new lineup is released then decide.
If you really have your heart on an iPhone I'd say go for it. $100 off and $100 gift card is win to me.

rofl i make little movies/pics in the pub all the time with my phone.
when i had to use public transport to get to my work in australia, i used my
phone as mp3 player.
my phone always works; the battery lasts for about 2 weeks
people can always reach me if they have to
i can always reach people if i have to

^ just a few simple reasons why for me, spending money on a mobile is not a
bad thing

edit: :) <- forgot the smilie. i read through it n it sounds like im bitchin :P

Worst are the ones that boycott products because it's cool to be different. You end up being more of a media whore than people who give in.

There's a reason why products get overrated: it's because they're good. The competition may offer products of near or identical quality, but calling them garbage because they're overrated is retarded.

A product that is overrated is not better, nor is it worse.

Well I bought a Creative Zen Vision over an ipod just because it has radio and I love my Booker Show on Q102 and also that it has 262,000 colors compared to Ipod's 40,000. Just my preferences.

Get an iPod.

iPhones have a screen made of glass, so they can break really really easily, and there is no warranty on it.

The internet is at dial-up speed.

There's a monthly fee.

There's only 2 gigs of memory on it.

Often times, the screen dims after a day, and is not very bright.

Just get an iPod, then buy a tank phone.

If I had the money which I do but already got a ipod/psp. But I'd still choose the iPhone because it's just a cool tool

Iphone bills come in cardboard boxes.

Mine was 300 pages, and had a log of every single text, call, saved bit of data, ringtone purchase, and had a log of every time my phone needed to be recharged and lost signal.


Ffs, just get an ipod. Iphone isn't worth the hassle. <_<

Was getting a iPod touch, changed to a iClassic.
I already have 4 gig of music and that will soon be 8 gig so the iClassic 80 gig is better for me xD
