MrTed46 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Got the Droid X from amazon.com with a 2 year contract for 79.99. Verizonwireless wanted $199.99 w a 2-year contract. What a big difference! Can't wait for it to arrive in mail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whomper Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 This may have been said in here already but I have a blackberry. I like what it offers technology wise but the device itself is an absolute piece of crap. My first one malfunctioned. My 2nd one the D key stopped working. I just got a warranty replacement for that one last week and now the U key on the new one barely works..It blows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perchoutofwater Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 I'm getting a new phone either later this week or the first part of next week. I'm leaning towards the I-Phone4. I like what my Motarola Driod does but the hardware is crap. In fairness it was the first Motarola droid so they may have improved some. Prior to the droid, I had a blackberry and while I liked it, like Whomper said the hardware was crap, even worse than the motorola. I really haven't looked at much. Both my wife and oldest daughter have I-Phones and love them. That is the reason I'm leaning towards it. Anyone have anything else they would suggest?

I Like Soup Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 any must have apps? im addicted Appbrain for sure which makes synching from the web a breeze. You can browse all the apps online, and have apps load up to your phone and also keep another list as a backup of sorts. I have about 80 apps on my phone and while I have to run to a customer appt, I'll post up later on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perchoutofwater Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I got the Iphone 4 last Thursday. So far I like it much better than the Motorola Droid and the Blackberry which I had prior to this. This is the first Apple product I've owned since the Apple IIc, so I'm not some Apple crazed person. I have to say I love this phone. Assuming that the hardware holds up, it is by far the best phone I've ever owned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had mine almost a year, with 3 kids in the house and the hardware has held up fine so far. Did you get it through At & T or Verizon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montster Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 My wife's Verizon iPhone just arrived via FedEx today. She just texted me from her work Blackberry because she's going to the bookstore to get a gift for my cousin, and she wanted me to go to the side of our bed and get the author's name of the book she's reading because she was going to get the same one. She knew the title already. I replied, what the hell did we just buy the iPhone for? She said I was a crappy Internet service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you get it through At & T or Verizon? Verizon because the service is better in this area, particularly at my house, and because that is where all of our company phones are through. My wife has an AT&T Iphone3, and her service compared to mine sucks. Don't ask why she's on AT&T, it's a burr in my side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had "decent" service when I was in Dallas Fort Worth, but living in Chicago is AT & T land. I never had the service issues others have had. Enjoy the iphone, I absolutely love mine!

AT&T here in Phoenix is beyond brutal - everyone I know with AT&T is jumping ship to Verizon. I use my iphone for everyting...business/personal and have had 4-5 days with intermittent coverage in the past month or so The last time I called in and was told me they had 2 towers down nearby and 5-6 that were "downgraded" whaaaaat? adios Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
