iPhone Options

Anyone getting one or know anyone who's getting one? People are putting them up for $25,000 starting bid on ebay. It's actually kinda funny to see all these professional looking people waiting in line for a cellphone.

I had that same sanyo phone that was posted for a long time, was an awesome phone until I accidentally smashed it on the ground.

as far as using more features... I like my pda phone a lot for the extra features, being able to browse to this site is huge for me. i also like the fact that it's an actual computer and I can put other nifty apps on it like novii remote (which I've used on tons of occasions to turn the volume up on TVs at the bar heh), media players (I've actually used it to watch full length movies on planes), and the ability to open office documents. It's way easier to send text messages because of the full qwerty slide out keyboard. having the ability to fully syncronize my outlook calendar & contacts with the phone, my home computer, and work computer is also a huge plus for me. If one of the computers or the phone takes a dump, I don't lose all my contacts and they simply get resynced. Plus, I can enter them all on my computer, along with people's picture and everything, rather than having to type them all into the phone by hand. I can connect to other computers or networks using bluetooth, wifi, or a USB cable. the nice large LCD touchscreen makes the interface easy to read and use.

I will agree with you guys on the "well all i need to do is use the phone and send text messages". My PDA phone started out as a toy, but now that I've had it for about a year I now find all the features to be extremely useful and worth the small cost difference between it and a regular cell phone.
