and I love it. If you can afford paying for it I highly recommend getting one. I've had a dozen or so cellphones and this is by far better than all of the others combined. It's like having a laptop in your pocket. I bought it for $100. I'm on the family plan with my mom, brother, and step dad and I'm just paying her $39 a month for it.

:laugh2:

I know I was probably one of the last people to not have one but I just thought I would share.

Congrats. New things are always fun to share. Me I have the same old Motorola I've used for years. A phone is for calling people. I even keep my ringer turned off LOL.

Is the $39 with unlimited data and voice?

I think the data is unlimited but not the minutes. It's cheap because it's on a family plan.

Yeah.

But when you're stuck visiting the wife's childhood nanny my iPhone is a lifesaver.

I've been surfing the net and watching videos the last few hours.

you ever notice people on a desktop get a big screen, yet the people clicking on teh phones enjoy a small screen. Weird how that works.

I feel your excitement...congrats! :toast: I called up 10 of my best buddies and held a beer party after going from dial up to DSL last month. I have the champagne on ice for when I advance to cable modem.

I can't believe you were still on dial up after this long. I remember the AOL days where it took 5 minutes to connect to the internet.

CongoRats Jon. I really enjoy mine.


FYI: Everyone needs to pressure Yeager to buy one. He is this ... close to buying one.


I absolutely love mine.

I was messing around with photoshop, and made a Cowboys wallpaper. It's a simple design, but it's my first wallpaper. I'll probably make more.

i've made a couple of wallpapers for mine, and i've found that wallpapers look best if you keep a dark background and make sure whatever image is centered in the middle so the iphone displays won't overlap it.
