modmyeyephone.com is great
but its a little lengthy.

i think modmyi.com will catch on. I wonder when they are going to write a letter saying how this site is illegal because it helps to unlock there product.

well ive worked with cellphones before, and as long as a phone is able to unlocked it is by no means illegal to do so.

Court hearings have been demanded by huge companies, such as tracfone, verizon wireless and alltel phones trying to get the abilty to hack or unlock a phone illegal.

you know what the court said? "well if the software you provide with the phone is capable of being unlocked, then make a software that is not capable of being unlocked, until you do this, these people are doing nothing illegal by unlocking them."

crazy how people want to enslave there customers. thats exactly what apple and the rest of the corporate world is trying to achieve, because un-informed slaves cannot ask questions if the media and government is giving them the illusion that everything is ok in the world...ok im stopping there

im rambling my end of the world mumbojumbo everyone hates lol.

ModMiPhone is the same thing. Says iPhone.

ModMyJesusPhone I'd have to shut it down when Gizmodo told me they own the trademark, lol.

Not the first time Apple has unleashed it's wrath on a modding site but there always a work-around. ;P

**peeInMyPantz** · 10-30-2007, 11:29 PM

i think they should sue me for using the word 'iphone' in this forum

**Kyle Matthews** · 10-30-2007, 11:32 PM

Using the word iPhone is fine - its what they called their product, after all, thats how you refer to it.

Using the word iPhone in the title of your company/business/website is a different thing, that's the issue here.

Yah... just annoyed with the situation is all. Sigh.. moving on. Now the URL just doesn't look as cool.

**iphonejeff** · 10-30-2007, 11:44 PM

I wonder what there (apple) is gonna do next..

**Dash-2** · 10-30-2007, 11:46 PM

Are you allowed to keep and forward the old domain to the new, or are they seizing it?

**hhider2** · 10-30-2007, 11:46 PM

tell apple to suck it...

**Kyle Matthews** · 10-31-2007, 12:21 AM

Stay aboard for the ride tonight as we are changing over.

**brand1130** · 10-31-2007, 12:21 AM

Its official ... The iphone is the first and last apple product i will ever buy ... End of story ... Enough of this B___SH__ ... I've never seen such a greedy company in my ENTIRE LIFE. 831$ PER IPHONE? You're already making 133$ on the hardware alone.
I actually was considering a MacBook Pro instead of a Dell. F**K that now.

I will never buy a single thing from this company again. I'd rather deal with Zunes than such a disgusting greedy brand. Can anyone say Nazi? I can.

**dchurch21** · 10-31-2007, 12:23 AM

yeah back in biz

since you cant use images of there device
lets all make drawings in paint of it!

And can we please get some legitimate headlines from Engadget, etc.? "Apple DESTROYS brand name." That would do justice ... that's about all that would do justice. That is what they've done after all.

**Tomer** · 10-31-2007, 01:10 AM

this is SO g*y !! WTF?
they need to be humble that people are improving their products ><
it becomes annoying...

so wait... we are not allowed to upload pictures of our phones? with are not allowed to use the word iphone under any circumstances?
