I love the way it looks, but could never use it as my daily device. EDGE speeds and the overall lag of the device = no bueno. It actually is referred to as the iphone 2g :)
 
I have one and turn it on every now and then for nostalgic reasons :p but I don't use it due to having my iphone 5. I still think it's one of the best built iPhones though and I loved it when I got it originally just after release :)
 
It was the best iPhone. I wish all the guts and features of my iPhone 5 could be placed into that original housing.

Now that would be a cool thing for someone to do. I also love the look and feel of the original iphone.
 
When I had the iPhone4 I'd sometimes pop the sim and with a sim adapter, use it in my original iPhone for a couple of days.

Now with the iP5 I simply can't. I'd feel hamstrung and so limited in its ability so as to feel anxious and wanting my iP5 back.
