iPhone doesn't MMS. Get over it. There are lots of things that some phones do that others don't. MMS does not make or break a phone with some people. "Oh this is a great phone, look - full browser, total touchscreen, GPS, 16GB iPod, complete synchronization. I LOVE THIS PHoooooo.... wait - WAIT!!!! No MMS!!!??? forget it - onto the next..."

iPhone winers. Geesh.

If you want an iPhone and you want MMS, EMAIL THE PIC!!! That's all MMS is - just a simplified emailing. Take a pic, save it, email it as an attachment.]]>Jun 25th 2008 10:18AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/Jun 26th 2008 12:07AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/Jun 24th 2008 4:05PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/Jun 24th 2008 4:27PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/Jun 24th 2008 4:47PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/Jun 24th 2008 5:56PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/Jun 24th 2008 4:37PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/Jun 24th 2008 4:39PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/Jun 24th 2008 4:45PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/Pay the kid at the front $1000 to take his place.
Bring $20,000 cash, and buy out all of them so no one in line can have them.
Then go sell them on ebay.

I'm really expecting/hoping that Apple will use this week's announcement as an opportunity to intro a 3G-capable iPhone, rather than seriously expecting carriers on your side of the pond to add new infrastructure capabilities everywhere for EDGE... (yes the iPhone is a landmark device, but I find it hard to swallow that _any_ one device warrants that degree of infrastructure investment, especially in a basically obsolete (albeit less power-hungry) technology)

FWIW, the 2 inaccuracies I found were in the 5th & 6th paragraphs:

* the current-gen iPhone supposedly not being able to connect to the WiFi iTunes store (while that's technically true right this second, Apple's publicly stated that the current-gen iPhone will get the WiFi iTunes feature later this month when an automatically-installed software upgrade is pushed out via iTunes desktop syncing)

* the iPod touch supposedly being able to do everything that the iPhone can, except for phone calls (the touch also can't do email, camera, stocks, Google Maps, weather, and notes)

I'm also hoping/expecting that this week's intro will bring the capacity of the iPhone up to 16GB to match the touch...]]>Jun 24th 2008 8:00PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/
If they want to stand in line for a phone - to be one of the first to say they got it? Fine - let them.

I sell cellphones and have customers asking about the Bold too. They want me to call them when it's released. Going to make fun of them too?]]>Jun 24th 2008 5:26PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/Jun 24th 2008 5:31PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/Jun 24th 2008 5:36PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/
What I meant to write is that every handset they sell needs to have a service contract attached, so over 2 years, each will cost about $199 + ($70 x 24) = $1879 w/o tax...]]>Jun 24th 2008 8:02PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/Jun 24th 2008 8:55PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/Jun 24th 2008 8:44PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/

Every phone is like that. If you want the new LG Shine, but are not eligible for an upgrade, you will pay the "no committment price." If you want a new Nokia 2610 (free with contract) but are not eligible for an upgrade - you will pay full price.

AT&T, or any carrier for that matter, does not "deem" you eligible for an upgrade. You signed an agreement that sets a certain timeframe. They make you well aware of this when you sign. Being eligible for an upgrade is not some sort of application process. It's not a privilege. They don't have some AT&T Upgrade VP that sits and looks at bills and records who then says "Yes, they are nice people - they paid on time, they do good things - I deem them eligible."

If you're bitter about this process, don't sign a conract for 2 years then. Feel free to pay full price for your phones. Pay 150 for a basic phone, pay 1000 for the latest and greatest BlackBerry. Then you do not have to be "deemed" eligible. You will always be eligible.]]>Jun 25th 2008 10:18AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/relax dude. @elbow wasn't being bitter. in both cases he was just answering questions. i think he put "eligible for an upgrade" in quotes because that's how carriers usually phrase it.

good argument though.]]>Jun 25th 2008 3:59PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/24/apples-iphone-3g-to-go-on-sale-at-8-00am-on-july-11th/
