So did anyone get a new iphone?

I'm enjoying the new software upgrade on the original phone. The ability to delete several messages in email at once is by far the best new function .

I downloaded a few apps off of itunes this morning to try out.

Anyone have any favorites yet?

The line outside the apple store in Cherry Creek yesterday was AMAZING. Hours long, according to the idiots willing to wait for it.

They sold 1 mil over the weekend. I'm suprised people have the patience for the long lines. Started with some free apps for the moment to try out.

I want a 32gig min Iphone before I upgrade. Also the plastic back on the new one could also be a big problem for me. The puppy seems to eat/ chew anything he can including the gf's cell phone. Since the iphone 1st gen is glass and metal he's got no interest, but apparently plastic is very tasty to dogs. :giggling:

I got 2 of them. One for me and and wife.. Sold my 1st gen iPhones on ebay...

The battery life is considerably shorter, but 3g in this area is wonderful. (See screen shot for speed.)

GPS feature is pretty cool too and seems to work very good too..

(This one is from Sunday)

As much as I agree with you it was done to enhance reception.

I have a rubber case protector on mine.. I don't even see the plastic.. (That's one option if you don't like the new design.)

I know in my area AT&T doesn't work for ****. I'd love to have one, but being that it would be my only phone its not gonna cut it.

I'll be getting the 3G version before too long. But I did do the 2.0 upgrade on my old one. I like it but the upgrade delivered WAY too little new functionality for the user.

You need to first focus on getting a touch-tone phone and lose your rotary. Small steps, man.
