Slight hijack but is the Ipod touch just an Iphone without the phone bit? I was told it was but don't really know (hence the question)
the iPod touch is a bit of a slimmer design but yes they are the same, 'cept the iPod doesn't connect to the mobile network so no texts, calls or internet except in wi-fi areas.
My 3G works well enough for me, I don't like the fact I can't bluetooth files to no iPhone users (i.e. can only use apps likes bump), don't know if I'll stick with iPhone when my contract runs out, but I certainly like it

but you can email very easilly, but then i suppose the people youd need to bluetooth to prob dont have a data contract, and what do you bluetooth anyway, smutty videos is all people seemed to use it for anyway.

cannot transfer photos taken on the phone to computer without a paid for app
Plug it in to computer with itunes closed. Just comes up like a normal camera

I like my wife's Iphone, in use it's a tad more polished than my Nokia X6 but I couldn't put up with the crappy battery life, it's also relatively heavy.
Something that does stand out from this thread, if you are a bit thick don't buy an Iphone.

Why you can't iphoners just accept the limitations sometimes, instead of always trying to turn it into a positive! Arrghh!

All of the basic flaws I would highlight as lacking as a basic phone were completely obsolete after the first few updates when I first got my 3g many moons ago.
I have no issue with it as a phone at all.
What sort of battery life are you all getting? Its never been an issue for me. I have mine turned on 24 / 7 and it charges when I sleep (normally between 12/1am - 7am). I use the phone a lot and have never had the phone die on me once in 3 years.
Oh, and for those with all the volume gripes why don't you just but it on silent by flicking that little switch on the side. Think of it as a mute button. Its all I ever do when playing games.

Lol, translated into English from fanboi-speak this means it's hard to use

If I use it normally (i.e. Singletrack/web open all day, email retrieving every 15 mins, couple of texts) then I usually have to plug it in by the afternoon.
If I switch stuff off and use it more like a phone then it can last two days.

The official battery life (iPhone 4) is 300 hours Standby, or 7 hours talk on 3G (14 on 2G), or 6 hours Internet on 3G.

Yes well my X10 apparently has a standby of 415 hours but I know that's crap.
2 days, if possible, is still pretty crap compared to older phones.
But if you get a smartphone you have to recalibrate your expectations.Posted 1 year ago # -
I turn mine off overnight, and with my obsessive e-mail / facebook checking etc I normally get 2 or 3 days before I have to charge it.
The only time battery life has been a problem is when I go camping, but even then it doesn't bother me that much. I just leave it turned off most of the time as I have better things to do when I'm out and about anyway

Car charger if you are near your car. Otherwise one of those Kensington spare batteries is really useful. Or even go for a solar charger.

I take the charger to the pub.
