iPhone

[Robert]

Any iPhone owners out there? What do you think of it?

 

It won't be released in Australia until next year and it hasn't been decided what network it will use.

 

A quick search in Google shows some things I hadn't expected.

 

Such as:

 

* They have security flaws

 

* They can be hacked to work on other networks besides AT&T

 

Someone even got one working (sort of) on Telstra (the Australian network).

 

How to unlock it

I honestly think it's overhyped garbage. The only redeeming feature of the phone is the multi point touchscreen, and even then it's waaaaaaaay overpriced at $600 USD. Here's a good "review/opinion" on the iPhone that you should read first. Oh yeah then there the whole "let's lock this biatch down so that no one can develop programs for it. I would say if it gets unlocked completely and is usable without activation meaning that you could use it for anything you wished, and a price drop, then yah, ti looks a bit more reasonable, but until then it's a piece of crap, and you can get better for less.

Why dont you just buy an unlocked iPhone?

I wouldnt get one for music/phone purposes, but the web browser looks good.

 

I find the browser the only plus for it.
