The end of the school year is always brutal. Glad to be back here. It's the internet access I'm after. I may just wait for the new iphone then...

why is that? I text a ton.

I am debating on what I want to get later this summer. I have enough gift cards to Apple for it to be free but on the other hand, i'll have to pay to cancel with my current service so that would be about $200. So basically either way I have to pay to get a new phone. My phone broke a few months ago so I have been using an older phone my sister gave me. It's ok but it's not what I'd like to be using.

I'm leaning towards the iphone just because I don't really have a need for anything else at Apple, outside of a mac that I can't afford. I've already had the gift cards for over a year so I might as well use them instead of letting them collect dust on my shelf.

But I don't know enough about the iphone or blackberry to really know which would be the right phone for me. I've always had free phones from tmobile and I've never been happy with them so it's about time I spend some money on a phone that I want.

i know you asked carlos but i'll take a crack at it. my guess is since it's got a qwerty keyboard, i've heard the iphone's on-screen keyboard takes some getting used to.

i saw you said you had t-mobile but aren't happy with them. if you wanted to give them another shot though, i'd recommend the g1. i have it and love it to death. plus it's got the advantage of having a slide out qwerty keyboard instead of it being on screen. though it's got a touch screen too, which is great. it also can connect to wifi stations like the iphone, aside from it not being apple i can't think of any features the iphone has that the g1 doesn't. but of course with phones, you gotta make sure you like what you get, especially since the high end ones these days require you sign a two year contract.

Here's a pic of the new iPhone being tested with the new camera auto focus feature...



According to a report, the new iPhone does contain an autofocus camera that is uses an on-screen square that can be moved by the tap of a finger to chose the object of focus. Also shown is the long rumored digital compass as well as compass software (pictured above). Those features seem to be specific to the next generation iPhone, though the site also demos MMS and Copy/Paste with Images.

I use an iPhone as my personal phone but the firm won't let us have them for business so we get the BB Bold for that purpose.

I text quite a bit and the iPhone is not an annoyance after maybe 2 weeks or so of getting used to it. I wouldn't let that deter you from getting it. However, if you use e-mail a lot, then go with the Blackberry. I really don't like sending e-mails on the iPhone because of the keyboard, it's considerably slower than a non-touchpad QWERTY.

But if you're getting a BB, I don't see the point of getting anything but the Bold to be honest. The Curve is as expensive as the iPhone, if not more, but it's not a 3G phone. Makes no sense at all to me to get that. Sure it's a bit smaller/sleeker but I think that you're getting an inferior phone and worse yet you're not saving any $.

well I use my phone to check emails but not to send them so I wouldn't be too worried about that with the iphone. My brother just got an iphone and loves it. I'm still not sure about the on screen only keyboard. But I have to wait a few more months before I can do this so maybe I'll just have to go to the stores and see the phones in person to help me decide.
