IMO, unless you can honestly answer "yes" to the question "Is this a device I feel I can't live without?", there is no smartphone worth that much money.

The iPhone is one of those devices that you don't think you need but once you get it you can't live without it. I was always an iPod addict, couldn't go any where without my music and podcasts. Now I can use the web at the same time!
I find the device a cure for the couch potato! Can do most things on it I'd usually use a mac for. Including posts on forums. :D
 
Worth is relative.

I wouldn't pay 50 cents for a red sox ticket but some people pay $100 for a ticket with a face value $40.

To me a non-jailbroken iphone is worth no more than a razr
 
Are these problems from AT&T? I'm on the 3 network in Australia, wondering if anyone is having problem with them?

Or if this is the iPhone...

Kind Regards
 
Thank i am so thinking about getting it i talked to a voda rep and she said the iphone they sell is unlocked is that a good thing?
 
Yes that's great it means you can move it over to Telstra when you get sick of vodafones crappy network. ;)
 
I am having seconds thoughts on this as after reading all the issues people have had the the build issues. whats the chancres ill have a issue with the 3gs?
 
worth the upgrade if you are upgrading from the first gen iphone

not worth the upgrade if you have a 3G


I upgraded from the first gen iphone and I am very happy with my purchase. I've had no issues whatsoever with my 3gs that has made me regret upgrading.
 
I love my 3G S. It's worth every penny that I spent on it. But maybe you should put the money to better use...like spelling lessons maybe?

I'm extremely happy that I upgraded from my 1st gen as well.

What a difference.

upgrading form 3G.... not worth it, not even for a penny.
upgrading from 2G.....Worth it because of the 3G speeds.
First time buyer ........Definitely worth it. You should experience iphone.

i upgraded from 3g and it WAS worth every penny.

I would say it's worth it from 3g IF you qualify for the full discount.
at full price, it's not.

Definitely worth it from first gen.
