New iPhone, Fuck Yeah.

How many items/devices do you own that perform those same functions? I realize they are not all portable, but how much is enough? Stop the insanity! Or send me a couple hundred. I need new windows.

a ds which has great games; a psp that plays music, movies, and ok games (but that shit is heavy and huge... like a brick); and a 30gb photo ipod.

Question for those of you that have them: What's the pricing plan per month on these bad boys?

For those holding off on the iPhone, the new OS has the following updates:

• Cut, copy and paste. At last! You can shake the phone to undo and redo the action, and it works with both text and photos, allowing Mail to send multiple photos at a time. (more here)
• MMS, along with forward and delete for multiple messages. (more here)
• A2DP stereo Bluetooth.
• Unlocked Bluetooth functionality on 2G iPod touch. (more here)
• Spotlight has been added to a new home screen page to the left of existing pages, allowing for universal search on the phone. (more here)
• Tethering is built into 3.0, and Apple will work with carriers on that -- who will have the last say on its implementation, most likely.
• App Store will be available in 77 countries.

Apple apps

• A new app called Voice Memos which lets you record notes and reminders.
• A revised Stocks app, with news stories and a landscape view.
• Landscape keyboard available in all major apps.
• CalDAV support has been added to Calendar, along with subscriptions support in the .ics format.
• Apple's major apps have all been expanded with search functionality.
• Note Sync to sync your notes.
• YouTube account support.
• Form auto-fill.
• Phishing protection.

Oh, and push notification.

Oh weird. I didn't even notice that. Hahahaaha. Usually it's about $70? A month. Right now it's $80 because I don't have a text plan and I keep texting people. HAHAHA. That's with unlimited (not tethering mind you) data plan for $30 and a roll over plan for $40 that includes:

Ok, so 70 a month and that includes unlimited data? I barely talk or text on my phone as it is. I just want to be able to surf the web all the time and msg people through facebook. Can you use MSN Messenger on this?

Aye. And if that's the case, get a family plan with Lesley so that you share the minutes and it ends up cheaper.

[Abraham Smashington]

Ok, what are the drawbacks here?

I can't really think of any...

[Abraham Smashington]

Hmms. So I can jus go to the apple store, buy this bitch and take it to my AT&T store and have them do their magic?

Why don't you just buy it from the AT&T store?

[Abraham Smashington]

DER!

I was under the impression that you had to buy it from the Apple store.

[nerdious dorkus]

Nah. Not any more. That was the case when the phones first came out for the first gen and the 3G though. I'd be really surprised if your local AT&T store didn't have any on stock. By the way, do you currently have AT&T? If so, make sure your contract is available for an update or iPhone update.
