Or jailbreak it

Get a G1, unlock it, choose whatever carrier you want, flash a custom rom if you want, do some updates, BAM, you're done and you don't even have to mess with Apple.

You're welcome.

I'm surprised to see that there really aren't any phone-tech-savvy people on here. I have an old T-Mobile Wing that I flashed with a custom, high RAM-leftover based ROM, and I added an iPhone theme to it, with all the bells and whistles. And I even overclocked it.

I wouldnt mind owning an iphone (id jailbreak it like my friend's) but I cant stand ATT. Their service is non existant where I live. Sprint/Nextel/Verizon all have perfect signal all over my city, Tmobile is so so. Some reason they have better signal than att even tho they are both GSM..

The iphone is a POS, and so is your face.

I like this article. My friend just got the myTouch 3G form T-Mobile here in the US. It's awesome. I have the iPhone 3G and I think they both have comparable pros and cons.

I own the iPhone 3G. Yeah, I may about 120 bucks a month to use it, but without this phone, I wouldn't know what to do lol I'm able to work on my website, post blog entries with the WordPress app, post to Twitter, use Facebook, enjoy the use of a great touchscreen keyboard, dock it in my car and have an awesome MP3 player, look up Wikipedia entries, use eBay, Shazam is free (it wasn't on my last phone).. and.. I feel like the updates made to the phone's OS are good and help with its functionality. I think that when the population that uses the phone growls at Apple enough, they finally succumb to our demands and add that feature we've been begging for. I mean, they finally gave us copy+paste, and it's very functional.

AT&T has been a great service to me as well. I can't complain at all about them, except for the price. But, I'm comfortable and happy with my iPhone, and therefore I am willing to pay a little more.

I will probably look into an Android phone later this year if AT&T doesn't hold up to their claims that MMS will be here by the end of summer. So, don't let me down AT&T.. I am getting tired of emailing photos..

The title is a cut and paste from the source. I really, really don't see your problem.

You're known to try and throw your weight around Apple threads. It's not surprising you're in this thread trying to get it closed because it trashes Apple.

This.

I simply copied and pasted the title from the article. I did not write the article myself. I simply posted a news article. I do not own anything apple. I have never owned anything apple. Therefore, I do not have an opinion on the subject. I simply posted a news article in an effort to contribute to the community. Please forgive me if I have caused any trouble. It was not intended.

P.S. - It's a stupid little news article. Don't let it ruin your day/night. Go on about your business and live your life. Don't dwell on this stupid article.
