I have a question, how often is your battery lasting? It seems like I have to charge it up at least every other day. I thought it was suppose to last longer then that? I wouldn't even say I use it that much... 2 hours continuous MAX per day. What's the deal?

browsing the web will def drain that iphone fast.

They new iPhone is a scam.
and your bad grammar is an abomination :keke:
....i think the battery will start lasting longer when you stop playing with it constantly, mine has been lasting my whole day (7am-8pm) then i get home and charge it (bout 30% battery life at that point) but i think its mostly because i'm on it all day texting, listening to Pandora etc etc.

Hahaha, thanks for pointing out the typo. Didn't they say that the battery would last really long even through all that use?

they stated that the battery efficiency has decreased 50% during 3g usage compared to the edge.

as stated yes the 3g will drain the battery quicker
im on the same train as duffm4n the battery lasts me a whole workday and i usually have 30% or more by the time i get home
one way to make the battery last longer is to turn down the brightness or click the top of the iphone to make it go to sleep when its not in use

u know I was reading as far as 3g smart phones are concerned the iPhone is among the best. When not needed turn off 3g and wifi u will be fine. I love the damn thing but I have no idea how to make custom ringtones

I love the damn thing but I have no idea how to make custom ringtones
use i tunes when your phone is connected and right click a song should say soemthing like "make ringtone" or something of that nature it should take the song and let you customize it at the bottom of the itunes screen and they are only 99cents and you choose when and when it starts and for hong long
but i'd suggest trying the free one above this post before haven't tried it myself yet

i love it when people try to make up reasons to justify why they don't want one
"I was gonna get it until I read/saw this...."

I just want freakin pandora on the go. Crackberry Curve owner here and I'm not happy that Pandora doesn't work on it

My daddy says the iPhone is stupid and won't buy me one so the iPhone is stupid. all the people that have iphone are stupid. I got this sanyo for free and it's better than the iphone.

I have a friend who works at the apple store who will be getting 10 phones allocated to her to sell. I also have a friend who wants to buy my 1st gen iphone and am just waiting for this new one to be hacked.

hacked as in using a diffrerent provider??
or jailbroken as in uploading emulators and all that fun stuff to your phone??
