AT&T Exec Confirms iPhone Details?

[1hihum]

the funny thing about all that ******** is that you are still with them. Unlock your phone and switch. Then you can see if all of your complaining is truely an AT&T issue, or just cellular limits in general. In my experience AT&T has by long and far the best service in all of the areas that I use my phone.

welp this meen i will be seeling my iphone...and never buying another one. If apple is going to release an iphone a year that means they will intentionaly withhold capabilities that should/could be on a current modle to the following year. Instead of driving inovation they are again pilaging there cult like following. First they want to make jailbreak illegal now they want to hold your money hostage every summer. Futhermore, just because apple was first doesnt mean they will be best. Take a look at the nvidea concept phone. I have been on this forum for like 2 years or somthing crazy, and i have seen alot of ups and downs in people moods but this is the first time i have noticed a zombiefication of you people. Dont blindly fall into another iphone crap shoot, look at the devices offerd by other companies that are comming at the same time as this new iphone and devices that will be comming out shortly.

SLide out keyboard is pointless!!
I can type faster than on a buttoned phone and can virtually type without looking at the screen!

thanks JazJon for the tip

You're very welcome

You have a choice. If you don't like AT&T use someone else. It is not an iPhone problem, it works flawlesly on T-Mobile in the UK for me.

I second that! The iPhone works quite well for me with Telstra in Australia. Tried it for a while with a Vodafone SIM and it failed with crap reception and dropped calls. So...... I don't know what people's experience with AT&T is like in the US but it's not the hardware and it's pointless to blame the hardware.

I don't understand why loads of people are going that it would be stupid for Apple to release an iPhone this year. Why not relese one????

If you haven't figured out, Apple are releasing an iPhone very year like they do with most of their other products.
I hope Apple release a new iPhone year and hope that all you 3G users that are tied to an 18 month contract can not upgrade so you have to take another 18 month contract out!!!! That would make my day as there's loads of people saying that we don't a need a new iPhone, Apple should concentrate on 3.0 and would be "foolish" of them to release a new iPhone, etc.
Thank you O2 for offering a pay as you go version of the 3G and hopefully the 3rd gen aswell, so I never have to get an iPhone on contract unless O2 bring back 12 month contracts!!

Maybe the $99 notebook and the new iphone are the same? Maybe the new iPhone can be carried as a stand alone then you dock it into the $99 notebook (which has a keyboard and a bigger screen?) and the iPhone turns into the notebook's CPU, Memory and communication platform.

So we had the Iphone, iPhone 3G, what do we get this time? iPhone 3.0?

I will never buy an iPhone with a physical keyboard. NEVER! I love the virtual keyboard + auto-correction too much. I can type on my iPhone faster than I ever could on any other phone.

ur an idiot

I hate physical keyboards for sliding out just to type "LOL" or "on my way". I hate touch screen for typing paragraphs. You need both on a phone...great physical keyboard & amazing touch screen one. That way you have a vertical keyboard, horizontal, and slide out. win.

no it will be some BS netbook from some off brand.

[Anthony3G]

It would be tight if the slideout keyboard was touch screen too

Wtf would be the point?????

[CaptainChaos]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is going to be faster. Will help you get nowhere fast. With new faster dropping calls you can't even imagine how many people you can annoy, and how much time you can waste. Cell tower switching will become seamless, all you have to do is wait 10 minutes for the phone to figure out WTF is going on. Unparalleled dropped calls, Unparalleled shitty reception, your experience will be unmatched by any other device, or any other service. Less bars in less places, all while displaying full reception. Oh yeah... and you still have to pay $30 a month for this wonderful "service", and maybe extra for tethering even though its not a service and you already pay for "Unlimited" internet.

I swear... with how shitty AT&T is sometimes I want to sell my iPhone and get a old candy bar Nokia, and go to T-Mobile, or some other phone and go to Sprint. It seems like everyone I know who has those services gets better reception, faster internet, and better connectivity.

It sucks that you have poor reception. I have been with AT&T for years, travel the U.S. and abroad, and don't have any issues.

Unlimited internet on the phone and unlimited internet on a laptop are two different ballgames all together. Surely you can see the difference.

That is the most rediculous statement of all time.

Wonder if pandor and 3.0 will get along. iPod and Bluetooth stereo does. But there isn't anoption to send soundto Bluetooth device like thereis with iPod app. Cananyome co firm?

I will agree 100% I love the keyboard it has already!

[Garage Battle]

why couldnt they just incoporate the autocorrection into the physical keyboard?

that would take typing speed to the xtreme@#$@#$@#

[confucious]

ur an idiot

Guess I am too then

It is a personal choice. I'd much rather have a smaller form factor without a keyboard than a bigger one with a keyboard.
Others prefer a physical keyboard which is why there have been rumours of 2 new iPhones, one with and one without a keyboard.
I somehow doubt this will happen but I could be wrong.

[confucious]

@Captain Chaos - if you do buy silent revolt's phone you will have to sign a legally binding agreement that you will never show it to anyone.


Or actually use it.

[rehtaehy73]

how about the COLOR of the new iphone??? I know some may find this silly but I still have my 2G original iphone (jailbroken of course) but only because I am waiting on a PINK color option. Yeah I'm a spoiled princess. But reaaly though, this can't be to much of a stretch for apple to accomodate us girls!! Anyone out there heard some hints of what this one's options will be???

[Sk8r789456]

I hope they do come out with a new iPhone this year with a better back and camera. Them after that no more for 2 or 3 years!!!!!!! Sounds good to me who agrees with me?

Not Apple, that's for sure. They will release a new iPhone every year.

What do you mean better back?

As for colour, there seems to have been very little discussion of this - It wouldn't surprise me but maybe they are holdinhg that joy for next years model!
