Well no doubt with the release of this new phone people must have some opinions on whether to get one, to wait and get one of a later model or to go for something entirely different.

So i shall start a pole but also would like some reviews, ideas, thoughts etc... Here are a couple of points to get your brains going!

Is it the best phone for everyday life? - i ask because it is fact that it doesn't have every feature out there but clearly we dont all need all those features sometimes!
Should you get an older iphone or the new iphone 3g? Cost is involved, are there enough new features?
Iphone 2.0 or Windows Mobile? Which is better? - is the iphone3g more usable than windows mobile on its various millions of platforms. Which is more powerful?
Review one if you've got one!
Are you going to get one?
Any important things to point out?

Ok lets hear y'alls ideas. I know what i think but i'd like to know what your guys and gals experiences are.

I couldn't really offer an opinion since I have not owned an iPhone, I do have an HTC 8525 and like it currently it is running win mobile 6.0 No issues with it :thumb:
Why didn't you just go the whole way and buy me a f@#king Kawasaki you bastards.

So far I'm loving my 3G!! I'm about to leave work to sell my old iPhone to a guy for $300, the price I paid for my new one :icon_mrgreen:  The UI is incredible, simple, and seamless.  Apps are becoming very abundant for  all needs and some of the game graphics are just stunning.  Super Money Ball is freaking insane.  I've downloaded close to a dozen apps, most free but those that weren't were very reasonably priced.  The 3G can download apps over 3G, Edge, wifi or through syncing with iTunes.  The GPS is amazingly accurate, though features for it are a little sparse.  I'm hoping a developer comes out with a good complementary program soon.
Ohh, yeah, and the all black casing is way better looking than the brushed aluminum. :thumb:

If we had coverage worth a crap here, I'd be all over one.  I just can't get over our local stuff.  I'm on sprint and have been happy thus far.  I will be getting a samsung instinct which is not as good as the iphone in certain regards, but a great phone nevertheless!  We shall see it soon

WOOHOO!!!! my non-3G iPhone is sold!!!!  For $300 and the guy was happy as shaZam!!!!  Of course, it was total package.....all original accessories in the original box with a $50 case and headset adaptor and left on software/firmware 1.1.4 for the less adventurous person wanting to unlock an iPhone.
Hehe, I came out of this paying $40 for a new iphone after it was all said and done :icon_mrgreen: :icon_mrgreen:
