phishtaper Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 oh great, more bright, shiny toys to distract those of us who actually want to watch the concert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoMack Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 $199 is probably with a 3 year contract - I'm guessing its more like $450 flat out no?Aren't they only via Rogers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 $199 is pretty unbelievable. It's cheaper than the iPod. Those will have to come down too I guess. What is rogers and fido going to do about the data plans? I'm dying to see their announcement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's invasion of innernet privacy.yeah, I got one. Sold my iPod Touch to a friend at work which covered the cost. I found room in my budget to cover the plan. I have an apple developer membership as I was learning how to do the cocoa thing. I'm interested in learning how to develop a simple app for the iPhone as well.

Irie Guy Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 Well I'd love to hear more about it. Seems like a terribly cool device. I'll be even more interested to hear about your bills down the road.I wish I could get one but I can't justify it. My phone is paid for by work at about $130 a month but unfortunately we are with Bell and I am stuck on a Treo.I have been thinking about going the Touch Root and selling off my Palm TX everything that I could do with that I imagine I can do with the Touch once the 2.0 iPod software is out.

bouche Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 so far, I am really impressed. I'm loving the camera and my ability to take a photo of anything for any reason and either send it to facebook instantly (using the Facebook App) or to my MobileMe account (which is free for 60 days, but I think it might be worth getting a yearly). GPS is a nice feature. I tried it while I went out for groceries and it tracked my route in real time. BTW, every photo I take can be geotagged.I made one call to my sweet wife and that worked better than I expected as well. I have a hard time navigating and controlling her cell phone, and this thing is so easy to make a call, and handle other phone features like "hold" etc.I'm a retard with the standard cellphone interfaces.The Apps feature is going to be killer. It already is. I downloaded a free App called "Remote Control" which lets you remotely control iTunes. If you use your computer to play music over a sound system, that's pretty sweet. I don't do that yet, but I can see it being a very popular app.I'll make sure I'll take advantage of the features of the iPhone. I'll likely be doing alot with it concerning food.

bouche Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 I can see me dropping it in some soup or a sauce while trying to take a picture. It's not great for photos, but it's great for quick little photos.I love the SLR and various lenses for proper food photos. The best photos I have managed to take were on our off-white plates. The food looks like it's in one of them white light boxes. But it's really just on a plate.exampleThat could not be pulled off with any iPhone/cellphone camera. That was with a proper lens with as much natural lighting available. NO flash. ok...so I'm gay for food photos. so sue me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
