i ordered mine from Apple, they financed it without a problem (if you have good credit) and it came custom ordered by me!

i will say that when i first got my Mac something was not right. The *processing* wheel just turned and turned and i would lose Safari. i called them the next day and it was exchanged via UPS, no questions asked.

Hackers have not yet found a way to get into Macs. That is a true statement. It will happen eventually, but at this time, they are as virus free as you're going to get.

Now....

I need a new phone. Someone sell me on the iPhone. AND what type is best. 3G? 4G? Holysh*tG?

I use it for texting mainly. Calls, of course. And I'm interested in doing more with pics. Looking info up for work and customers. Not so much on the games or having a thousand apps.

Not true. http://www.zdnet.com.au/mac-os-x-hac...-139241748.htm

All OSes have at some point or another gotten a virus, been "hacked" (I hate that term -- it's more accurate to say compromised or attacked since some "hackers", of the traditional white-hat variant, actually look to fix systems), or <insert attack vector here>.

The only way to truly ensure a secure system is to take away the biggest cause of compromise: the human being operating it.

I don't think it's worth the time of the *attackers* to attack the Mac with Viruses since they use Windows to infect the dang thing.

I LOVE my iphone 4g. I don't have the Holysh*tG one because they are still working on it.

If you are on my FB you've probably seen lots of pics i've taken with my iphone, you can enhance and crop it in camera which is pretty good, but I am not sure if the camera is that much better than any other camera phone, but the reviews say it is.

I had a hard time transitioning from a Droid to the iPhone 4 here are some of the reasons....

Texting on a iPhone is not as easy as on a Droid/Android.. another words it takes some time getting use to.

Camera.. it's not nearly as good as some of the New Androids/Droids

Graphics in my opinion is not nearly as vibrant as a Droid/Android

Apps are not as good as the Droid/Androids (there maybe less to choose from but lets face it there are PLENTY with better quality, I find there are a lot of iPhone apps with problems and I'm constantly deleting them.

Talking when making a phone call I have to change screens to talk on the phone otherwise my cheek hits the MUTE button or the SPEAKER phone .. pisses me off. This one is my biggest pet peeve.

However I do like a lot of the options it has. I'm not a hater of the iPhone but I may go back to the Droid/Androids for my next phone. I have a nother year on my contract to change my mind.

I've heard people talk about the mute button thing. I don't know but on my iphone the entire screen goes black (no buttons to hit) when you have it upright, when you pull it down to look at it, the screen comes on again with all the buttons lit up.

I <3 heart <3 my iPhone. It's one of the first 3Gs models. Has loads of memory and currently hosts the majority of the music I have stored on my PC. I can spend hours with little earbuds in my ears listening to my favorite music.
I've got some fun apps on it and I enjoy that.
But the very best thing? The 3G capability and google maps. I no longer get lost when I visit friends out of town!!! *laughs* Absolutely worth it.

I didn't like the iPhone 3G but I love my ipad2 . I am having fun building a new MacBook

I have the 4s. It's my first smartphone so I can't speak to comparisons. I don't do games and can't type on those little screens for shit. So, Siri rocks for the clueless and voice texting can't be beat. For me, the clueless, who doesn't even really understand the world of apps, it's nice to just ask the question without knowing what app or trick to use and get an answer. I have been finding some pretty cool non-game tools as well. The camera seems pretty good, but if I want to play "photographer", I use one of my others. Works fine as a browser too. I'm know it goes well beyond the bit I've done, it seems like a solid buy to me.

Awwww, Linus! Why you gotta take the wind out of my sails?

Technically, I overheard a tech telling someone that, so it's good to pass that news along.

Thanks.

Gemme, I was a late adopter of a smartphone. Felt intimidated I think.

I got my 3GS right before the 4 came out (of course).

I absolutely love it! It is so intuitive, I easily figured out how to use it. I have probably 35 apps, tons of songs, play multi-player games with folks around the world, use it for the Planet as my mini portable computer, etc.

Can't say enough good things about it. I still have 10.5 GB available so it feels wasteful to upgrade to the 4 yet but am craving a love affair with Siri (sorry honey, Siri will be my other butch at some point) and I want Face Time, too.

Yes, I love my IPhone:)

I LOVE :heartbeat: my Samsung Galaxy Epic 4G Touch. I've had this phone since October 2011. Everyone raves about their IPhones, and the Galaxy is comparable to that.

Also in love with my Nano 5th Generation Ipod and is the best generation version out there since it has FM radio and other bells and whistles which the others don't have...
