Netter Text übers i-Phone. Bin selbst absoluter Fan davon. Demnächst soll ja auch schon wieder iPhone 4GS erscheinen. Werde mir das dann aber wohl kaum Kaufen, denn Apple bringt das doch etwas zu früh raus..

1. The phone works fine…3G is new, so there might be some glitches now and then…..only 2% of the users are having issues….or so they say…compared to what? What phone doesn’t drop calls?….only my LAND LINE.

2. Having that much technology in your pocket is worth it. Internet, Photos, Stocks, Mapping, e-mail, SMS…oh yeah..plus video iPod…it is great for all those things….and it will spoil you very quickly as it sets a new standard for all the OTHER Cell Phone Mfrs…..want to look at an attachment from your Crackberry?…just forward it to your iPhone…you’ll see it as if it were on a PC (smaller, but you can expand sections)……I hope someday that they make a 10″ x 12″ version…maybe they can called iTablet?

3. Battery Life….just charge it every night on your night stand, and don’t forget to set it’s alarm….it works great as an alarm clock also.

4. It’s part of who you are…APPLE like Lexus, means best in class….nothing wrong in working hard and getting the finer things in life…you deserve it!

5. iGet the iPhone…

You wont’ get the corp discount on the plan even if they tell you right now…once you get it it won’t work. Not even people from homeland security can get any monthly discount.

We are looking into getting the iPhone for our work phone and our tech guy has been tinkering with it. The reception problems he had heard about as well and they are now resolved according to him. I think the only real problems you will have with reception is if you are out in the boonies. I suggest waiting for the full upgrade deal. The 3G iPhone is still new, this will give them more time to work out the kinks in it that you mentioned above. If you use apps on it constantly, it will kill the battery, but that is the same with any phone. Hope you guys had a wonderful time on the honeymoon. I want to hear stories!

For all of its ‘flaws’, it’s still a damn fine product. The battery life is not as bad as people make it out to be…UNLESS you’re 100% in 3G mode, do a LOT of surfing, AND have Location Serviced (GPS) turned ‘On’ all the time.

EDGE works just fine for calls. If I need to do some surfing, I’ll turn on 3G (if I’m not near a WiFi hotspot).

The built-in apps are rock-solid. Some purchased apps have been known to crash frequently, even taking down some built-in apps. But that’s on the app developer (vote with your wallet). As for other crashes and freezes, most seemed to be caused by the earlier 2.0 version of the OS. Most of those issues have been addressed or resolved.

And as for reception, it’s just like any other carrier: if you life and work near their towers, you’ll fare better than if you don’t.
Since you’re already an AT&T customer, I suspect you’ll fare just fine.

Enjoy your new iPhone!

P.S. Buy a good case (I have the Speck PixelSkin and recommend it – http://www.speckproducts.com/products/pixelskin/iphone-3g/143).
