3G iPhone with Glossy Black Back?

speakerwizard said:
one of the main selling points to the smart phone iphone, but the media player market is what apple needs to prioritize as its still half there income, and a LOT of ipod customers are teens, teens that cannot get contracts, a lot of people like the iphone but say i dont need the internet all the time but they do like to have a media player and a phone in one. Im not saying theyd loose the internet off of the main iphone.

One doesn't need a contract or extra money to get on the internet - just a free hot spot. If there is support for VOIP one day (which I hope there will be) then one could make their calls free as well. I think being able to access the internet with great portability ultimately will be more important than using a phone with a contractual and limited service provider.

i dont think that it would be a smart move to make an iphone without the internet. one of the main selling points is that it is 'the real internet'.
i dont think that it would be as successful with less storage and no internet.

there are plenty of other phones out there that are mp3 players that have expandable memory. and most of them are cheaper than $300
 
If I remember correctly, the iPhone was originally conceived by Apple as a very portable Safari device. The idea of the phone was added later.

Here is a lighter and less distorted view of the room for what it's worth.

The walls seem very close like a bathroom, there is an overhead vent. Almost looks like a second person looking over the top of the laptop though, strange.

My friend told me she got an email saying AT&T was showcasing a pink iPhone.
I srsly doubted her, until I read this article.

colorware and done.
 
Are people still arguing about this? Just click on the picture below, for goodness sake. You can clearly see a) the groove at the edges, and b) that the groove has been smeared/blurred in the middle. This isn't a judgment call -- it's obviously fake. (You can do this yourself, just play with the contrast, etc, on the original photo. It's what Science magazine does to check for faked scientific photos.)

That isn't the same phone that's posted on the front page. The guy who mocked that [the image you quoted] up admitted to it a few pages back. (page 15)
 
I don't remember everybody testing the photo in photoshop with contrast levels, etc.. with the "fat ipod nano" 😛
