Oh, you just got it? I thought you've been doing for a while...and no, they don't tell you, only after you expire, do they tell you


I'm running "FreeConverter"...http://www.koyotesoft.com/indexEn.html just as good, if not better than Switch...only downside is that you can't "convert file using switch"...you have to go thru the program to open your to-be-converted files. A bitch if you convert 100's of songs at a time(like me), but even so - who cares?

It's included in the monthly fee.
oh really? Maybe I will pick one up when they are cheaper.

Do you have to have a special plan through Cingular? I already have a plan through them. Can I just upgrade to an iphone?

They have iPhone only plans. I believe current customers can just upgrade to an iPhone plan like you'd want.

The price was lowered $200 on the 8gb model a week or two ago. It's now $399.

phew, $399? That's much better... Didn't a bunch of people get pissed who had to buy it for $599, so Apple refunded them?

I really love this peice of gagetry, but I just wish it'd come down to sub-video game console prices...you know what I'm saying?

Yes, they refunded $100. But it was as Apple Store and iTunes credit only.

I don't renew my Verizon for 2 years. I'm sure by that time Microsoft will have their own version available to Verizon.

You think so? I've often wondered about that...

I can't remember what magazine I saw it in, but it was about how China makes near flawless copies of various items. (It even talked about the car they copied from Chevy and how it's SUCH a close copy you can remove the doors from one and put them on the other for a perfect fit.)

But it had an image of an 'iPhone'. But it had all Microsoft icons. I forget what it said about it though other than it was an excellent copy of the iPhone.

Anyone who thinks Bill Gates will sit still and let Apple one-up Microsoft is dreaming. LOL

I heard their copies suck.

I have links to where their crash tests of their cars were terrible.
The iPhone is such crap. It had limitations like you can't accept calls. There were others too.

I've had my iPhone since the day they came out and it accepts plenty of calls. Maybe just not yours? With Visual Voice Mail I can scroll through them and answer and listen to the ones I want to.
