Nope

Who wants an iPhone?

ReggaetonKing · Jan 10th, 2007, 12:17 AM

A: Not for $400!!

Q: Do you think the iPhone will live up to its hype?

Jimbo · Jan 10th, 2007, 12:51 AM

It's by Apple... it'll sell for sure. The MacWorld demo seemed pretty impressive, though I'll admit my phone ain't much so I dunno for sure.

Do you think the 2-yr contract will stop people from buying it?

peace_of_mind · Jan 10th, 2007, 3:00 PM

Nope, the price tag will do that nicely. Most will hold out for a price drop or two (except the Apple enthusiasts who know it'll always be expensive).

I know nothing about it other than the fact that the release was announced and the high price tag. What's so special about this phone?

ReggaetonKing · Jan 10th, 2007, 9:10 PM

take a look for yourself
http://www.apple.com/iphone

Think Apple going to pay for using that name that Cisco owes?

peace_of_mind · Jan 11th, 2007, 12:47 PM

Yup, one way or another.

Okay I looked. Still don't get it. What's so special? (Bear in mind I say the same thing about Ipods, still don't own one nor do I need to. I have a couple of MP3 players and now an MP3 playing phone)

Oh, God, it's back.

A: it's Apple. Therefor, it's "cool".

Q: Why must people not use the standard Q: A: format?

peace_of_mind · Jan 11th, 2007, 6:02 PM

It's pretty obvious what's what, without the need for tags.

Is it really that important?

Eric the Red · Jan 11th, 2007, 6:09 PM

Yes it is!!!! :p

When you realize that your chances of attaining a specific goal may be small, is it still important to have hope?

PhilBon · Jan 11th, 2007, 8:52 PM

IT is important if the thing you are trying to achieve is important. Posting in the right order and worrying about it is like eating lard, the only thing it'll do is make you not feel so good.

Why does society have to be so obsessed with Material objects? Or that you have to have thing "a" to be cool or wear thing "b" to look "sexy"? When are we going to look at a person and be like that guy just saved that other guys life, Now that is cool. Or a girl wearing what makes her comfortable why wont people see that, that is probably the most beauty a girl can have. (sorry it's kind of a rant)

P.S. If you use Firefox and haven't upgraded to 2.0.0.1, I suggest you do it. There is a spell check feature that is quite nice
