Well at least most, if not, all of these issues were corrected by the 3GS.

Sorry. It aint that big of a deal to use a Blackberry. Then I'd be stuck with a dumb phone.

- Limit of 1 exchange account ( gmail for my personal account and I'd like to use another for work...oh well )

- A decent notification system. What we have now is pretty poor. The GRiP for iPhone is promising.

 

[DirtyIrish]

can you tell me?

The big hesitation for me is still 9, the contract more than anything.

So Safari crashes? Interesting. 4, 6 and 7 are also concerns I already mentioned in other threads.

I looked at a tester. The phone feels solid and does respond to the touchscreen. Seems to work on wifi pretty well. The high resolution colorful screen is as advertised. It's just the restrictions leaving me saying "should I or shouldn't I move one of my numbers to an iPhone?".

can you tell me how to get ringtones from ITunes to my IPhone 3g?
Thanks
John

not being able to see pictures in emails on the phone or attaching a pic to a responding email.And please dont give me "well we can do that from the photo album"
Uh some people like keeping their email intact

 

[iAddict]

Multi-tasking should be a CHOICE or an OPTION

FILE MANAGEMENT IS A JOKE! I have lost sound files people email to me, because I had them in my phone not realizing my phone won't let me store them while traveling. Sadly, my email didn't hold attachments that long.

Google Maps sucks, and my phone always gets it wrong if I use CURRENT LOCATION. It starts me 20 mins from my house lol.

I agree, it's not a huge deal for me but it's little things like this that would make the phone that much better if apple did something about it.

Without a doubt, I'm sure this complaint has already been mentioned--sue me, didn't feel like scrolling through 316 pages of previous replies before posting--but what's up with this device's STILL not having access to a flash-enabled browser?!?! (This is, of course, to the best of my current knowledge; if I'm wrong, by all means let me know.)

What's the point of having the ability to view graphics with amazing clarity and precision if it's wasted on so many sites which rely so heavily upon flash-driven content? Surely I can't be the only iPhone user who is sick of seeing that stupid little blue box with the question mark?

With the development of a myriad of different--and sometimes quite useless--apps, software and device updates/upgrades, one would think this issue might've been resolved by now?

That's the end of my rant; just wanted to share my primary beef with the IPhone...

I feel bad for those w/ junky AT&T service spots. Here in Los Angeles I never have an issue what so ever.I always average high DL speed, never a dropped call or shotty no bars of service. It sucks most dont have the positive experience myself and others have...
