iPhone - yay or nay?#1

Posted: 12/8/08 at 5:21pm

Particularly wanting to know if it works as it says it does and if it is worth the monthly service fee.

I also want to know if AT&T's service (phone and internet) work ok in NYC. There is a possible move in the future.

Thanks!

I love mine and would be much less happy without it. It works fine in the city for me :).

I haven't been to the city since I got my iPhone this summer, but I absolutely love it. I'd be happy to answer any questions about it.

I never get the latest phones or other electronic devices. It had been three or four years since I last upgraded my phone. In September I got an iPhone for my birthday and honestly it is so well worth it. There are just so many wonderful applications and various uses for it. AND most of the good applications (including all those advertised in the commercials) are free to download. So yes, that would be a yay from this corner.

Thanks Mormon, I'm with you on slacking with the upgrades. I don't think I've ever had the newest phone on the market, but the internet/email aspects of the iPhone makes me want this one. I'm not super educated in this area so I appreciate the info!

Google Maps on the iPhone now features public transportation directions/schedule as well as walking time estimates. I live in the city so I love it. It also has Street View, which is very cool.

I don't use the phone for much - I have like 4 applications, but phone, iPod, Google Maps in one device is already worth it for me.

It has its problems, just like any electronic device but I LOVE it.

It's yea, not yay. Except I definitely love my iPhone, so I'd say yay as well.
Such an awesome contraption....

LOVE my iPhone. The great thing about it is that there are updates every so often that keep it current.
