No word on anything new for the iPhones yet i’ve been paying close attention…also as far as google syndicate(you won’t start following me until the end)…they are creating an interface for phones…basically touch screen phones and pda’s, its supposed to be VERY bad ass and even has iPhone owners talking about it. Keep an eye out for mobiles branded as “gPhones”…tmobile is slated to get one for sure.

Also…my iPhone is on t-mobile…Shitgular wanted waaaayyyyy too much for a down payment

Bsh no you didn’t! lol

With T-Mobile the WORST that can happen is you’ll have to pay for your phone full price…they don’t do that down payment shit anymore. I’m on whats known as flexpay…i’m not in a contract(which i like) i just pay for my service in advance…it kind of keeps me away from accidental fee’s and all that other bull. 99.17 a month after taxes and my services include  
300 anytime & my fav 5 (39.99)  
total internet package(couldn’t live without it on the iPhone 19.99)  
unlimited text/pic/instant messaging(14.99)  
mobile to mobile(6.99)  
flexpay surcharge(4.99)  
i may be missing something but i think thats it…300 minutes suffices for me because i am a texter/emailer…i will flat out tell people “text…don’t call unless you have tmobile or its after 9…and even then…text”  
i was surprised at how good the text messaging was on the iphone…it even logs the conversations like an instant message(which i love). But again the iPhone isn’t for everyone…only those who need it’s functionality…my cousin has one…doesn’t even know how to use it right…has crashed it already and ended up having to fork over 35 for me to reflash/unlock the phone. But as far as my T-Mobile service goes…i stopped having complaints when i got my iPhone  
edit: oh and the prada i had i sold after that 3rd day…the guy still has it…he works for T-Mobile

yes and it was funny to watch people say the iPhone was a clone…clones don’t blow the originals out of the water. Hence why people say the prada is the closest thing to a iPhone “clone”

you can’t even see your nutsack :dunno:

The Expandable memory yea but your still limited. If i’m not mistaken files start to “disappear” on the 8gb chip when installed in the mogul. The mogul also has a horrible memory leak and it’s slow as balls. iPhones can sync just like your winblows mobile device and YES even with your outlook contacts. Customs roms…your kidding me right? If your talking video games…been there done that…if your talking different interface…iphone doesn’t even need a custom written ROM for that. Wifi…got it…GPS…is for cars…if your on foot using telenav your GHEY.  
This is coming from someone who lives on both sides of the lines…trust and believe i use the devices i talk shit on

🤣

I have talked to many people on PPCGeeks that have no problems whatsoever with their 8GB chips. It has a small memory leak, but it’s not bad. As far as custom Roms, I’m talking about the whole phone being reprogrammed from the ground up. hacking the reg to shit, removing all the embedded bloatware, making it far faster and more stable.

Fuck Apple. Fuck the iPhone. The Windows Mobile platform is not perfect, but I’d rather deal with software that can be tweeked rather than shit hardware that can’t be dealt with.

And lol @ you not caring about GPS. with the 320x240 display it’s almost as big as a Garmin or TomTom or whatever. I use it all the time in the truck and it’s saved my ass quite a few times. Certainly justifies the price tag on the phone much more than an iphone.

Small memory leak…sure having to soft reset the phones daily if not multiple times a day is “not bad”. Custom ROM’s on a windows mobile device…been there done that with phones the perform much better than the shitty mogul…still they SUCK. Use an iPhone and your opinion will change…you haven’t even used one and your against it…me on the other hand i’ve used and sold both for over 2 years, written custom programs for winblows mobile and the iPhone…  
Telenav\<Magellan/TomTom/Garmin  
I’ve used the Telenav service, it fades out where my GPS holds 3 out of 4 bars in the car, out in the boonies in weirton i bet your phone will drop signal completely both voice and data. Your going off of a blindly led judgement…stay a pool boy it’s better for you.

Majority of the users with Moguls state that after a soft reset they have 21mb of memory free for applications…with nothing but active sync running for the entire day its down to 10% before the day is out…with NOTHING BUT active sync running…you call that “not bad”?

Do some more research and when your ready to play let me know…

And on the “shit hardware that can’t be dealt with” comment…you must not realize that the iPhone performs better than your mogul…the only thing you have over it is on the sprint end with EVDO…otherwise it’s beat…look at all the other countries who phones and services are WAY ahead of ours…what kind of network are they on? GSM…not CDMA

I work for U.S. Steel under the Union Railroad

I HAVE worked for every cell phone company there is in our area except for tmobile…i was in a cell phone repair position with sprint before USS, but was into repairing and mod’ing phones long before. Took what i could and ran with it. I also have a part time on the side with one of the accy vendors in the mall…unlocking, flashing/flexing, repairing phones…could do this crap in my sleep…each time i go to the mall i actually end up teaching the employees at the cell phone stands something new

that phone will be horribly limited by verizons network alone whichever way it goes. Unlocking phones is becoming more and more popular every day and att/tmobile customers love the fact that all you do is sim pop and your done…where as you have to talk to the arabs with verizon/sprint/cricket which everyone hates. The US as far as cellular devices is concerned is actually behind…now to your average citizen that is perfectly fine…but to a good bit of people they actually like those overseas phones that you will never see on sale here. And if anything will be “better” than the iphone it won’t be running windows mobile…remember…most employees at these companies are brainwashed…
