effing boo!

Not that I mind AT&T, but I liked Verizon's network and customer service slightly better, and I'm a FiOS guy.

O wel

Ok... and? Do you want the Captain Obvious award or something? ATT and Apple signed a pretty straight forward 5 year contract that started in 07. Why anyone thinks this contract will allow someone else in the US to get the iPhone before it ends is beyond me.

On a side note, the release date is effing FAIL. Parents were going to get me a new phone for my bday, which is this week. Looks like it's Android for me -.-

My iPhone 3G (non-S) is practically retarded as of late. It's been synced, erased and resynced, updated, cleared (sans contacts and texts) and it's still dumb. Even just changing songs hangs for a couple seconds most of the time. Kind of forcing me towards upgrading to a v4 down the line

iPhone races that's awesome! +1

I've only had the one and I'm not too gentle with it. It's been dropped and even knocked out of my hand before (during St Patrick's Day) and it's pretty okay physically. Some cracks in the back plastic, scratches, weird things with my screen from being dropped...

Your phone isn't the only one being retarded. I don't know why, but for some reason my iPhone 1G always gets retarded if I don't update the OS. I brought it up to my friend that works at the Apple store, and he acted really weird when answering, like Apple was doing something to make people upgrade...

unfortunately I could see that happening, if even indirectly.

They're writing all this new software for the 3GS, and expecting it to run fine on a v1 or 3G and it just doesn't have the POWA! It's like when Vista came out and it was BADDDDDD because dual core wasn't the standard and people were still selling computers with only 1GB RAM. Then they learned the hard way what was truly necessary and things were a little less scary.

Actually, for me the Retina display – 960×640 at 3.5″ for 326dpi (*fap fap*). 800:1 contrast ratio and IPS for wide-angle viewing = MAJOR MOTHAFUGGIN WIN...

LIGHT YEARS ahead of any other mobile display out there.....

*fap fap fap*

A smartphone is only as good as its display...

True, I wonder if that glass they're using is scratch resistant. They're already advertising "cases" on their site (of course)

Not sure why they're stopping at 32GB on this iteration...

Well in the keynote video..it said the glass was 30 times more hard than a plastic display...and that it has the same characteristics as sapphire (which i believe is the same composition used in really high end watches).

If its true, then this glass is going to be pretty damn scratch resistant. Sapphire has a hardness of 9, so very few things will be able to scratch it.
