I basically wanna know who has the same cell as me so i can get some help with apps and such. As we are not all in one country i guess the Provider is optional.

Nice cell Clumbsy , best for business stuff I like it , but am more into larger storage devices even it's not better  ;-)

I agree with you spr, but actually the iPhone is over priced specially while it have lack of features that you can find it in other devices with cheaper price

how can I spend 3800 Egyptian pound on a cell phone that have a very lack camera and do not support bluetooth connections, video call, copy and paste , at least they can do let us have our mp3s as ringtones not to be converted to .Acc or.eAcc

I think I can buy a Nokia N96 for this price with waaaay more features and Guaranteed for a good performance

And I don't agree with you both, if you believe in the rights protection (unlike 95% of Egyptians), you will understand the Bluetooth issue knowing that iPhone's bluetooth supports pairing with any bluetooth device but not transferring data for obvious reason and the new iPhone OS will bring a cool new feature to use bluetooth in peer to peer (iPhones and iPod Touches) connections mainly for gaming without need for wi-fi or 3G. For the camera, I challenge anyone to prove to him that the iPhone's 2MP camera is better than many 5 and 7MP cameras found on Nokia and other phones, and that's because the factors that determines a good camera is not just how much set of data it could capture, there are some other factors like a high quality and expensive canon lens which is the iPhone's case, the catch here is the lack of a flash light for night shooting and video recording which are not issues to me, but sure I blame Apple for not including them. I also blame Apple for some missed features in SMS and the lack of Arabic support  but it's coming soon.

Also the new iPhone OS 3.0 will bring many missed and new features like cut, copy and paste, MMS, Spotlight and many more. If you guys just take a look from a wide view, you will definitely believe that the iPhone is the most advanced and innovative smart phone in the market and here's only few reasons:

(1) Apple is new to mobile phones business, it's just normal to miss some features then get the feedback from users and add them, even if those features are famous in other phones, the nature and technologies in the iPhone like multi-touch control might be sometimes hard for the implementation of famous features like the copy and paste until they figure out the best and most convenient way to do it, Apple could sell to you an iPhone with every feature you could dream about but you won't be happy when it only last 2-3 hours on battery and at the same time exposing you to the world and putting your own security and privacy on risk!! .. it's an equation, they have to balance it in a convenient and satisfactory way and it is a really very hard task.

(2) You would never find any similar device in the market, iPhone is very unique by including 3 devices in one, and that's not the point, the idea behind is the traditional ease of use of Apple, the full integration with iTunes, the full multi-touch 3.5" rich display and the way you browse your contacts, calendars, maps and youtube and all other media including photos, music and movies. Add a mobileme account (for $100 / year) and you will know what I'm talking about, just a very simple example, I'm on the road, and need to call someone, then I realized that I added his contact details only on my home or office computer, all I have to do is to find a wi-fi spot or use 3G connection to let mobileme pushes that contact from my home computer to my iPhone on the fly. Same goes for calendars and emails of course, not mentioning endless possibilities to share your files and photos with anyone with no hassle or wasting time.

(3) From the software developing point of view, iPhone OS is the best, easiest and most reliable handheld developing platform ever, I'm not the one who says that, but more than 500,000 developers do, including many big and famous companies like EA whose CEO stated that the iPhone is the best and most amazing gaming device in the market, iPhone is the only smartphone and handheld in the world that is running a stripped down version of a fully compliant SUSv3 UNIX operating system called Mac OS X v10.5 (Leopard) which is running most of Apple computers, so what are the benefits ?

(4) iPhone is the most secure and stable smartphone in the market.

(5) Before even iPhone comes to life, there were millions of software developers all ready to write applications for it because it's very easy for a programmer who writes software for the father of iPhone OS which is Mac OS X Leopard to write with the least effort and time some nice and cool apps for iPhone, but Apple was really surprised when they found that exactly 62% of iPhone apps developers so far are all new to Apple!! and the Mac or iPhone developing, that simply means that thousands of other phone OS (windows mobile, symbian, blackberry..etc) developers had found out that iPhone OS is a very easy and rich developing environment so they decided to throow other platforms behind their backs and come up with thousands of amazing apps for the iPhone, at this moment, about 50,000 Apps are available on the AppStore, and they can do everything you could ever imagine, I have an application to report to me nearby police spots and speed cameras using GPS and another telling me if you are lying or not (based on FBI & CIA standards), another one could listen to any  music around you and comes up with the artist, song and other info about that unknown song to me, an app makes you the center of a radar with all objects and things around you with their distances and direction, a compass, a ruler and much much more. All of these apps are free, I didn't mention any of the priced apps that do a really cool and very useful things.

(6) Apple's goal at the first iPhone 2G launch was to take over only 1% of the mobile phones market by the end of 2008 which is nearly 1,000,000 sold iPhone, by the end of 2008, Apple had sold more than 16,000,000 iPhones. means that in only a year and half Apple have had nearly 16% of global market and about 37% of US market share sitting on top of other rivals like RIM's BlackBerry, Palm, Moto and Nokia. Apple's iPhone OS blown away Microsoft's windows mobile only after 3 months of iPhone 2G launch despite the fact that Microsoft has more than 6 years of experience in the market with their windows mobile platform.


Just consider all of that and you will never think that this device is over priced, the fact is that the value of the device is actually higher than its price, and the iPhone cost for Apple themselves (I can't publish that) is much higher than you think, and the profit margin for Apple's iPhone is very low, the real flowing income is from the carriers and the AppStore, nearly 1,000,000,000 apps had been downloaded from AppStore till now.

i just changed my plan with sweet-sweet t-mobile, made it 'family' by adding another line for my lady... and got her a new phone - Motorola ZINE, and myself something smaller - nokia 5310..

this nokia is very small and light, has 2 megapixel camera (same as iphone), screen is 240x320, very nice, and buttons are present... (their absence is what i don't like in iphone)... so it's got all those things, usb2, bluefang, video rec, zoom, etc, etc.. comes with 1gb sd card.

but all this is nothing compared to THE MOTOZINE zn5... damn bastard has KODAK lens, makes 5 megapixel pictures and also has Xenon flash, so pictures in the complete dark look normally, can nokia or iphone do that? auto-focus? multi-shot? hehe... i couldn't have enough of it.. until i started hacking in, and after all couldn't get any apps into it, nokia 5310 on the contrary has proved to be "open architecture", allowing sweet upload from pc through usb.. zine erased apps from messages. but the coolest thing was a none-demo version of The Guitar Hero that came with the nokia phone.. =)
