Yes, i have an iphone and mine is the same way, it's a bummer. I'm guessing in the next update, they are going to be making the volume louder and hopefully adding multimedia messaging.

Not saying the iphone is not a good phone. But how can it be so revolutionary as a phone and not have MMS? Forget about 3g but something as basic as MMS?

Its like Verizon. People will buy into the hype no matter what does not work on the phone. Its a terrible phone. Certainly not worth $400.

When I heard the untimate music player pone does not have BT stereo capability that said all I needed to know and that was on a $600 phone at the time!!!!! But they sold a ton of them. So I guess Apple has the last laugh.

You are so ridiculous with your negativity towards the iphone. If you really didn't care, you would shut up about it, constant responses regarding the iphone means part of you is either jealous or it's gotten under your skin. I think it's both.

NAh I just think it's a really great example of how marketing can suck in the weak and uninformed who care only about following the herd. There are many who jumped then looked....

Please.....No really $600 (many stood in line to pay that LOL) for a an IPhad. You could have bought a Nokia N95 or N82 for lessthen that and never leave the house!!!

Here are a few things the Nokia has the iphone does not....

See what I mean.. duuuude? .You just don't so the research, NO one is paying that much for N95s and or N82s..LOL You can get the N82 which is an upgrade for the N95 for less than $500!!!!!

The N82 and N95 are worth far more then even $100 over the Iphone. It's less than that now! YThe GPS on the phone alone is worth that....Never mind the rest of the features that are "almost" on the iPhad.

Duude....

You call tower based GPS...."essentially" GPS or even virtually GPS.......real GPS? What happens if you are in a no coverage area or don't have a data plan..Guess what? NO GPS or very costly GPS.

Thats not GPS. REAL GPS uses Satellites for fixes and works everywhere one has a Sat link.

Why would I be Jealous? I could have bought an iPhone easily. I paid a little more for a ton more. It angers me when peopl suck up to an advertising plan and blindly react to a weak product. Its make corporations like Apple really believe they have done something well when in reality they offered a half assed ...

Quit bringing up the advertising angle, I am a marketing major, I know better then to buy something just because of a creative commercial.

Apple makes great products, period. I don't care if my phone won't work on the top of a mountain because I don't go to those places. Just because the Nokia is capable of many things doesn't make it necessary for everyone. The iPhone satisfies my needs in a phone and I enjoy using it. You really need to stop being such a hater.

PS I did a quick scan for the N82, too much work to get one, not interested.

By too much work I mean the phone is not available from Nokia online. I have to buy it from a shady online dealer for $562 plus shipping. Your numbers were wrong, don't say ebay because I don't want used phones.

I enjoy how smart you think you are. Your Yoda speech may work on some, but it has no effect on me. All you have to do is not respond to every iphone post, it is an obvious sign of jealousy when you can let one single iphone post go by without your predictable rebuttal about how great the nokia is. Apple owns you. They love people like me and they really love people like you.

OK so you think third party phone dealers are "shady" Like Phone Source, Tiger Direct, and many upstanding phone sellers. YOur fear is terribly misplaced.

How can one be jealous of something they COULD HAVE HAD? LOL You are acting like i never had a chance to get the iPhad.

USed phones are great. I paid $480 for an N82 from a HOFo member with the $99 Garmin GPS package included, The phone works fine. The guy had the phone about a month. It had 21 hours on it....

Im not afraid of the evil internet sellers.

Apple makes easy, The rest of us are not afraid to read a book.
