I have an Evo 4g with Sprint and would like to upgrade to the iPhone 4S but I have a few questions first. I understand that flash is no-no but do you think I will adjust without it? Honestly I don't know the instances in which I use flash. Does it offer wireless tether? Would it be wise to buy the phone before launch or afterward? (Does it make a difference is the real question.) I just really want this phone! :)

If you don't know, we don't know.
Does it offer wireless tether?
If you pay for the feature.
Would it be wise to buy the phone before launch or afterward?
Doesn't matter. You're not going to get any new features by waiting.

Dump the Evo and buy the phone. You'll love it!

Get the iphone, it's an amazing device. I don't miss flash, most sites are savvy now and offer vids that work on ios devices. If they don't, i either don't visit them, orwait til i get on my laptop. Can't think of one time i was like "oh, damn, i really, really really want to watch this, but its flash!"

IF you really need flash you can d/l Skyfire off the app store and it will give you all the flash you want. I have it and occasionally use it to surf porn sites but that's about it. Well maybe a few non porn sites too but mostly porn. :eek:

oh and theync. Very not safe for work but if you like to watch morbid videos, its the site for you.

Get it you will probably like it. I have loved all my i's from 1 to 4 and now waiting on the 4s.

I get a negative because I watch porn? wtf is that about! I used my up arrow to negate your negative lol.

I DID build that!

Having a MacBook Air that is sold without Flash, but IS capable of downloading the most recent release of Flash I have yet to do so. I don't own an iPhone. However, even without Flash on my MBA, I don't miss it and the instances I run across where Flash is required is surprisingly few. Sure it's a little disappointing, but I get over it. Youtube is a hassle but certain other video formats I can view, such as those placed here at MacRumors.

Bottom line to your question, sure you will adjust without it.
