I was a big HTC Fan, before that iMate and Sony Ericsson...but after I get a glimpse of iPhone then I said this is the phone I am looking for. I got it last August from US and then I jail-broke it...It is a very very user friendly, entertainment and a business phone. If you want to take the iPhone to the edge you need to jailbreak it, then the SKY is your limit!!!

Highly recommended for the tech gigs.

    i sent one of my friends to purchase the above iphone in USA but few shops in USA refused to sell to outsiders who are not living in USA and they have asked for social security. SO finally I bought Nokia 5800 xpress music in Dubai.

    So they missed the opportunity of making a sale.Tell AT &T or who ever in USA to make hay while the sun shine.

        Why the iPhone is amazing, there are two stories about it on this page, between them there are 528 comments.

        Nothing comes close to that level of interest, not bad for a phone released two years ago.

            look its like this , i have been a htc man for ages i love the fuctions all all that is htc , but i got to be fair , i the other day took a trip to a local o2 shop to see what all the fuss was about .
            i got to honest the touchsceen is amazing so fulid and easy to use the mp3 player as you all know is the mutts danglies and its coming very very close to me wanting to getting a iphone.
            yes there are alot of fanboys out there that would swear blind that apples iphone was the best thing thats happened to there life , that i disagree , i mean there are a few floors that need to be addressed.
            but the bottom line is this that if your after a phone that has a massive multimedia experience and the best touchscreen on the market you aint gonna find better.
            phones are a choice of taste and even though once again i say that the htc is top notch i have to in my opinion commend apple on there efforts and the after service is very good e.g updates and trying to get rid of those damned floors.
            mmmmmmm my precious

                    The iphone is not the best smart phone out there. It is a great phone for entertainment wise. The only reason why this phone is even good is because of the applications available for it. Other than that it still lacks a ton of features.

                          The title is incorrect, The iphones being sold will still be locked to AT&T. It will just be contract free.

                            I don't think it is going to be "unlocked", meaning you only have no commitment with at&t, but you can not use any other SIM card.

                              When the writer wrote that headline it's obvious that he didn't foresee the impact that the App store would have, as of today it could read 'Twice the hype, 27,000 times the novelty', in a couple off weeks it will be 'Twice the hype, 30,000 times the novelty'.

Either u r extremel... moreWell, it'd be nice to draw a cartoon here but I have to describe it, the N97 Nokia's flagship phone will be launched to coincide with the Ovi store, which will be Nokia's attempt to integrate services modelled after Apple's App store right down to the 70/30 developer split.

                                I predict both will fail to win back Nokia's 16% loss of the smartphone market share last year, by Samsung and LG on the hardware front and by piracy on the Ovi store front.

                                Go into any S60 phone thread and you will be able to take your pick of advice as to how to override the certificate system used to protect Symbian developer's IP because lots of people who use Nokia's do not want to pay for software.

                                Meanwhile Apple will just keep on printing money and growing as they have the best model out there.

                                      How about a cartoon with a little whaling ship called the S.S. Ovi, being dragged under a stormy sea by a little harpoon stuck in a huge whale called the App store with an Apple logo, a tiny harpoon like a mosquito bite...

                                      ...meanwhile on the surface pirate ships with jolly roger's flying are closing in on poor little S.S. Ovi store, all cannons blazing.
