RE: iPhone Prices: $249 and $449

Release date for canada will be sometime in the summer 2008,(probably early july). It has not been confirmed yet, but i have heard from my cousin who is connected with people who are involved with the creation of iphone. The 4gb will NOT be coming to canada, and the distributor will be from rogers wireless exlusively.

RE: Looks like 10 Million was a bit of an understatement

RE: Looks like 10 Million was a bit of an understatement

That's a misconception, Bruce. Steve's exact words:
"...1% Market share equals 10 million units. This is a giant market. If you [get] just 1% market share, you're gonna sell 10 million phones. And this is exactly what we're gonna try to do in 2008, our first full year on the market." He then reiterates "10 million units in 2008" -- not by the end of 2008, but "in" 2008.

RE: Looks like 10 Million was a bit of an understatement

The article is misquoting Steve. The quote was 10 million by the end of 2008, so that includes all 2007 sales too.

RE: Incase's "Protective Cover" for the iPhone

I currently own this case and am writing on my iPhone with it in it. But I truly hate this case, only reason I dont change it is I'm cheap and dont live in the US. Its starting to tear near the dock and the inside of the cover must be cleaned every so often so dirt won't scratch the back, although so far no scratches there. So I highly recommend you to buy ANY other case.

RE: 3G coming soon: More than just speculation

His comment about a joint announcement was in direct reply to being asked about the availability of the 3G iPhone. I think it's safe to say that, unless he's the king of non-sequiturs, the context is pretty damning.

Posted by Dan on May 15, 2008 1:35:25 PM

RE: 3G coming soon: More than just speculation

Big deal...so he doesn't know when the 3G iPhone will be out but he does know that they're doing a joint announcement of an unspecified nature around the time that Steve has already announced that the 2.0 firmware will be available. Assuming that the announcement will have to do with the 3G iPhone is nothing more than...speculation.

RE: "iPhone Black" Now on AT&T's Website

Wow, you seem really upset, I hope I haven't offended you by not updating my article, as hard as it may be to believe I have a life too, and cannot constantly stay on top of stories like this. So next time you see a screw up like this, instead of asking me if I'm dumb, it would be much more helpful for you to just point out my error.

RE: iPhone case: The Xylo T2 by Ivyskin

I bought this case and I'm not very satisfied with it. I do love how it protects the whole phone, but it decreases the sensitivity of the phone's touchscreen too much.
You have to press down harder on it, which is annoying.
If you can get used to the decreased sensitivity, then I would recommend it.
Otherwise, forget about it.

RE: iPhone case: The Xylo T2 by Ivyskin

I agree with Lisa! The XyloT2 case is the best so far for me. Yes there is the water mark on the screen but I can live with it. The main thing is, it makes my iPhone looks really good and an all round protection. Two thumbs up for me!!

RE: 3G Enabled iPhone vs. Edge Enabled iPhone

There must be more to the new phone than just downloading a web page slightly quicker ! If I want to do this I use Iphoneiquity (www.thesmespace.com/smeutils/iphoneiquity) - I think maybe I heard about it here. It compresses any website and formats it for the Iphone, allowing me to turn images on or off. Sooo...give us the news on the features, this is what is really going to sell it to me.

RE: iPhone Insurance Covering Accidental Coverage?

Hey Folks,

Looks like there is a insurance company that is finally offering accident coverage specifically for the iphone. Even if you have already had it for a while. I got coverage for both my 4gb iphone and my 30 gb video ipod.

Check it out: http://www.icoverpro.com

RE: iPhone Insurance Covering Accidental Coverage?

I have had my iPhone ever since it came out back in June. I've been looking for some way to get accident coverage for my iPhone. About two days ago a co-worker of mind told me he got insurance for his iPhone with this company called iCover. I figured what i heck i'll check this site out. I couldn't believe it, this company offered accident coverage for the iPhone for only $8.99/month. So my search is over and my iPhone is covered. The website address is wwww.icoverpro.com if anyone is interested.

RE: AT&T: 3G iPhone for $199.00?

This is a good news but i wonder if it is going to be applied to all the countries because i live in France

Posted by Steve on Apr 30, 2008 11:11:24 PM

RE: AT&T: 3G iPhone for $199.00?

Not sure why Apple would allow AT&T to go this low on the price because it devalues the brand. The iPhone is a premium product, and Apple products generally get a high value perception from consumers. Not sure why Apple would want to mess with this formula, but we'll see.

RE: iPhone case: The Xylo T2 by Ivyskin

The XyloT2 case is the best. I love it and highly recommend it. The water thing under the screen is easily solved by discharging the static. This is caused by Static build up... all you need to do is, after you clean the iPhone and before you place it into the case, you need to touch a metal piece to get rid of static Hope this helps...

RE: Man bites dog

I called AT&T just tonight for a simple question. I agreed to the post call revue and was ready to flame them. To my own surprise, I gave the young lady the highest marks. Perhaps AT&T's land line and in store help could take some pointers from their mobile service bept.

Posted by Paul Salzman on Apr 18, 2008 10:51:10 PM

RE: Man bites dog

Thanks for this story. I've had very little problems with AT&T's customer support. In fact, I find their customer support personnel very helpful and quick to respond to requests. To go even further, I'd go as far as saying AT&T's Wireless customer service is among the best customer service I've experienced! I know that in the distant past, they were not very good, but in the last year or so, I've found their service to be excellent. Certainly, much better than any of my banks, better than my ISP and a lot of restaurants I frequent!

One thing that I do to ensure great service from AT&T? I only call during normal USA business hours. I find if you call really late, you may get some off-shore support and that's always a bad experience. Same thing with AMEX--call during the day and you get great telephone service, call at night and you get India.

Anyway, AT&T should keep up the great work.

Posted by Erika on Apr 7, 2008 1:47:21 PM

RE: iPhone case: The Xylo T2 by Ivyskin

I should have waited for all these comments before I ordered it. I ordered it right when I saw it and even rushed it for $10 extra only to be completely disappointed. The case kept unlatching itself, the screen does make that watermark no matter how much you try and clean it/dry it. It is very easily scratched and makes the phone look very unappealing. Also the touch screen sensitivity is largely decreased and is a hassle when trying to text because the corners are not sensitive at all. All in all the biggest waste of $45.

Posted by Deda on Apr 18, 2008 10:51:10 PM

RE: Man bites dog

Since switching to AT&T, I have never experienced poor customer service. Of course coming from Sprint, ANY customer service is better that what they provide. I went on a cruise and came back to a $400 phone bill even though I purchased an international plan. I contacted AT&T and they knocked off $200 with no problem.

Posted by chris on Apr 18, 2008 10:51:10 PM

RE: Man bites dog

I experienced a similar situation when I blew through my anytime minutes and over 2000 rollover minutes a couple of months ago. A fantastic young lady adjusted my plan mid month to give me unlimited calling for a mere $20 on my next bill after using 80 minutes at $0.30 per minute. My attitude toward AT&T has completely changed.
