              Well this is it, the Early Termination Fee from AT&T is $175.00 and then subtract $5 per month as per their policy. Its cheaper to just sign and terminate then to just pay full fare for the iphone.

                    Alot of people saying "Do you work for Apple?!"

                    No. This is public knowledge, Steve Jobs and Johnn Ive stand up in front of thousands of people in every keynote (maybe not now, poor guy) and expresses why Apple does things the way they do. Then when you use the products, you turn around and think, yea makes sense! :-)

                      David, 19 Mar 2009"No MicroSD? Apple never like bits coming in and out of the... moreApple has made it publically aware in their kynotes that they dont design products with styluses, tray optical drives, hinges, avoid moving parts at all costs, or have any portruding pieces from their hardware. Least ammount of butons possible (Apple mouse, ipods, etc) They did this again in last october by making the battery on Macbooks internal. Again, less mechanism simpler design, more battery space. Makes sense when you think about it really. They also removed the buttons from the trackpad and made the whole trackpad a button. Recently, they removed the number pad from the mac line. If its not needed, get rid of it, makes things simpler.

                        Aple is a lady phone, it' because woman don't care more than just few calls and picture it's baby, and they don't need much possibilities, neither they understand about technical things, and no way is for man or serious people, it's to childish, and all you see is in hands of som fat ass, woman, kids or homos, that's not funny really..., oh yeah it's funny digging sand with it, it's made from steel and glass!:-((

                          hi guys just wondering
                          how is this gonna work
                          iphone 2g was sold at full price and everyone complained
                          so the they went the providers and got he phone subsided so they can sell more
                          so why would anyone buy and full priced iophone if they were complaining on how expensive it is ?

                          this all seems like a big scam
                          sin the onely why you can buy it (unlocked ) most likely not since the provider is selling it retail and not Apple
                          seems really fishy
                          to get despret people to finally be able to buy it

                            I think you have lost it.....ur mind is blown off...
                            If apple were so sucessful, thee would be HUGE companies across the globe using apple than PC.

                            I suppose the ONLY GOOD THING Apple has ever made is ipod.
                            Apart from that everything is crap........given a few exceptions...

                            You seem to work in APPLE FOR SURE.....
                            Iphone sucks....and if you see, nowadays, 90% of the mobiles are with youngsters.....and not oldies....if they dont share pictures, dont listen to music....then will the f**king dads do that?
                            If apple wants to become popular, they should make phones that are good and aim the next generation like us.....not the 90's era....i suppose the BIG difference between apple phones to the black and white phones in the 90's is that Iphone only has a touchscreen and a colour....i am ignoring camera b'coz nowadays every phone has it and its way to common....

                            So TO DEREH AND ALL.....

                            ...........**EAT APPLE BUT DONT BUY APPLE**.............

Apple never like bits coming in and out of their phones, avoiding moving parts when possible, thats why all their Macs have slot loading optical drives. Same reason for the design of the Sim card tray and exclusion of a removable back cover/battery.
                              No Bluetooth file transfer? Apple dont want people sending and recieving animated gifs of stupid cartoons etc, it degrades the brand. Same for no custom ringones, they dont want their phone to play horrible scooter and ultrabeat tracks when it rings. Its bad taste.
                              No copy and paste? security issues between apps. But now that its here, its clearly the best use of copy and paste EVER on a mobile device, possibly better than on a pc"

                              Hahahahahahaha!!!!!!!! Funniest piece of nonsense crap for an excuse if a ever heard one.. I'm sure Apple has legitimate reasons for not adding this or that.. I like all phones.. Iphone, Nokia, SE, doesn't matter.. but u Derek are one sorry ass dude.. Did the chiefs at Apple personally call you and told you these stuff?? If not, then shut up dude.. you sound really really really super pathetic... but thanks for the laugh man.. hahahahaha!!!

                                    A better alternative overall.

                                        Anonymous, 19 Mar 2009soo get one,, wtf are you doing here checking out the iphone..Mmmhh... I did get one...
                                        After a few months, I just couldn't stand it anymore.
                                        What really annoys me?
                                        2 things:
                                        - You have to pay for everything, but the most annoying one is having to pay Apple to change your battery... That's a rip-off...
                                        - A music phone that does NOT have A2DP (Stereo Bluetooth) and a sad excuse Apple call an earbud... It is so crappy it's pathetic...

                                        Like I said in the other forum: Other than its web browser, iPhone is just simply over-rated. So I moved back to SE or Nokia. They simply have better phones... Especially Music phones...

                                        Hey, it's a free world, some people want to stay ignorant and 'hip' because they have what everybody else has? Be my guest...

                                        Peace ;-D
