Cars=Empty Wallet :bunny:

Im looking at getting one, but not sure who to go with Telstra, Optus, Vodaphone

So far optus seams to be the best deal, But i always have been with telstra.

Plus i wanna keep my number :happy: lol

I cant wait to get my iphone. I think the main reason people don't like the Iphone is because they just don't understand how good it is and how much potential it has. Im buying it because I enjoy coding and making my own programs so I wanna try out the SDK (Software Development Kit) that comes with the iphone. Don't forget all the other third party software companies that will be developing software for the iphone. In a years time you will be able to do everything on your iphone. 2mp camera doesnt bother me because i dont take a whole lot of photos with my camera on my current phone.

If you think its just hype you need to have a read of what this phone is capable of and you will understand :bunny: n95 doesnt even come close...

I believe the N96 will be better too, it uses the Symbian OS (already in use with the N95) which is open source that allows people to write Apps for as well. There are already a whole heap of add ons like viewing office/pdf documents, video viewers, email and IM clients, etc. You can buy an extra battery (iPhone has to be sent away) at most phone shops. The 16GB with an 8GB SD micro should also be enough for most people to replace their ipods and maybe even video iPods with an MP4 player.

I currently have an ZZZ custom phone (symbian OS) and hate the touch screen, so the N96 will definitely be the choice for me, just wish they would give a release date.

its funny how everyone complains about struggling to afford mortgage repayments, yet you see them lining up to buy an iPhone.

not having a go at you guys, but when i went to the shops today, many locals lined up, who had a cry that they couldnt keep up with payments, i wonder why...

Sorry, it p#sses me off, just letting off a bit of steam.

$200 on a 24 months contract.

So its not free, you still have to be on a contract of $50 a month or whatever.

Pretty sure out right it is :D , must be grand opening special.

I still remember the FIRST Iphone grand opening in Beverly Hill .The line was just shocking, the weather was hot that ...............the chicks dressed to kill :) , we got given Iphone Umbrella (crap).

Haha, I was saying something similar the other day. Not really specific to the iPhone, but about how most of the people that complain about that stuff have 2 newish cars, a decent house, and in most cases a decent income that gets pissed up the wall on luxuries, which are usually on finance too!

But, I should get back on topic lol.

Is there any rumours about when the 32gb version will be released? Hopefully it comes out around the time I have the money saved up lol.

until australia's gaybo data rates drop, AND carriers other than telstra get real high speed data rates, owning the new iphone is kinda pointless... you might as well own the old iphone. unless you enjoy surfin the interwebs on your iphone while only in the vicinity of wifi hotspots which you can access.

khunjeng - Blah blah blah lol, each to their own. Some ppl just apprciate technology more than others :thumbsup:

Shane666 - if you have to finance something, other than a house, then you can't affod it, full stop. It's common sense. Me, I have no credit cards :)

on mine now. Optus is the best value. I stuck with vodafone tho. Longtime apple used here, most people don't understand them, but will in time. It does everything I would need from a laptop, so a saving there. The 199 was for existing us AT&T customers. Thhree will have em on mad plans in good time :)

Check out the mac rumors forum for unlocking hacks etc.

This is more than a phone, and more potential than a blackberry.

Give it 12m onthS for original plan customers to need new ones and there will be another revision. Gps needs turn by turn voice, and Bluetooth doesn't pair with phones due to apples stance on copyprotection.

Enjoy.

So much misinformation in here by people who don't know shit :D

iPhone is great. Don't think of it as a phone, think of it as an iPod which can sms and make phone calls.

Best thing about it is it's internet connectivity. Nothing else comes close. The web browser in it is the first time browsing the web while out and about is actually usable! I had windows mobile phones before this, and they were good, but the web browsing was usless.

The interface on the iPhone is second to none. Windows mobile is still based on using a stylus, tiny start menu buttons, and a laggy interface.

The iPhone DOES have bluetooth, but it's only able to be used with handsfree kits/earpeices. Limit put in place by apple for some reason.

MMS is shit, it's a way for carriers to charge stupid amounts of money to send a picture. Much better to use email, once all the other phones catch up and can use email as well as the iPhone.

Ohh and anyone who thinks the iPhone was/is $199USD outright, come here, i'm going to punch you in the head for being retarded.

    • Great interview on damper settings and coil selection by HPA https://www.facebook.com/HPAcademy/videos/30284693841175196/?fs=e&s=TIeQ9V&fs=e
    • Yeah, it was a pretty deep dig.
    • The values for HID colour are also defined ~ see https://www.legislation.gov.au/F2006L02732/latest/text  ~ goto section 3.9 onwards ....
    • So, if the headlights' cutoff behaviour (angles, heights, etc) are not as per 6.2.6.1.1 without automatic levelling, then you have to have to have automatic** levelling. Also, if the headlight does not have the required markings, then neither automatic nor manual adjusters are going to be acceptable. That's because the base headlight itself does not meet the minimum requirement (which is the marking). ** with the option of manual levelling, if the headlight otherwise meets the same requirements as for the automatic case AND can be set to the "base" alignment at the headlight itself. So that's an additional requirement for the manual case. So, provided that the marking is on the headlight and there is a local manual adjustment back to "base" on the headlight, then yes, you could argue that they are code compliant. But if you are missing any single one of these things, then they are not. And unlike certain other standards that I work with, there does not seem to be scope to prepare a "fitness for purpose" report. Well, I guess there actually is. You might engage an automotive engineer to write a report stating that the lights meet the performance requirements of the standard even if they are missing, for example, the markings.  
    • Vertical orientation   6.2.6.1.1. The initial downward inclination of the cut off of the dipped-beam to be set in the unladen vehicle state with one person in the driver's seat shall be specified within an accuracy of 0.1 per cent by the manufacturer and indicated in a clearly legible and indelible manner on each vehicle close to either headlamp or the manufacturer's plate by the symbol shown in Annex 7.   The value of this indicated downward inclination shall be defined in accordance with paragraph 6.2.6.1.2.   6.2.6.1.2. Depending on the mounting height in metres (h) of the lower edge of the apparent surface in the direction of the reference axis of the dipped beam headlamp, measured on the unladen vehicles, the vertical inclination of the cut off of the dipped- beam shall, under all the static conditions of Annex 5, remain between the following limits and the initial aiming shall have the following values:   h < 0.8   Limits: between 0.5 per cent and 2.5 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.0 per cent and 1.5 per cent   0.8 < h < 1.0   Limits: between 0.5 per cent and 2.5 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.0 per cent and 1.5 per cent   Or, at the discretion of the manufacturer,   Limits: between 1.0 per cent and 3.0 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.5 per cent and 2.0 per cent   The application for the vehicle type approval shall, in this case, contain information as to which of the two alternatives is to be used.   h > 1.0   Limits: between 1.0 per cent and 3.0 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.5 per cent and 2.0 per cent   The above limits and the initial aiming values are summarized in the diagram below.   For category N3G (off-road) vehicles where the headlamps exceed a height of 1,200 mm, the limits for the vertical inclination of the cut-off shall be between: -1.5 per cent and -3.5 per cent.   The initial aim shall be set between: -2 per cent and -2.5 per cent.
