Why would we want one?
So Chinese in their new found importance can keep busy while standing in line.

Perhaps a lesson to be learnt in humility.

I don't need any peanuts even if I could find someone who wanted one. Perhaps it's a geek thing to want one and only people who fit into strange social classes feel the need to buy one - face book users at a guess?
The real IPhones are really handy and do many things. I'd like to have one but you have to have ATT cell service to use them. They are like a mini computer and you can do lots of things with them.

I can't sure the words you offered. For me, price is the first important thing because we still pool in China (exception official); the other thing I am considering is the software services, as you guys said, there were a lot of fake IPhones.

I have given my expensive quad band phone to my wife because most of the time it denies me the quad band service despite the account being in credit. Without a chinese sim card it is so unreliable that it is useless. I didn't bother to get a replacement phone and I'm enjoying the freedom. I have a sat nav which has the ability to insist it's in Chengdu when we're actually in Beijing. It does work suprisingly well a lot of the time but we can be halfway there before it kicks in.

Most of the time we just buy these toys but don't really need them.

I phone is good only if it can be used with many different operators. People need a good phone that can be used when they go to Europe and Asia. If you stay in the US only then buy a cheap phone for 50 usd.

It depends on your line of work. For some they are invaluable. If I were away from home more I would have to have something like it. Being a writer and working online I have to be connected a great deal of the time.

I bought a phone that is a music player because I wanted a MP3 player and didn't want more than one gadget to keep up with. I have a Nokia Express Music phone it's alright but next year I will probably switch to ATT and get an IPhone. I'm too cheap to pay the internet service you have to buy to use them but eventually I will get it.

Daily Horoscope for December 31

Scorpio

A loved one is very assertive under the Full Moon tonight. You'll only make it worse if you come down like a ton of bricks, given that Mars is retrograde and it's a lunar eclipse tonight. Besides, do you really want to spoil this evening's celebrations because you've had a flaming row? If possible, live and let live, so you can have a really happy New Year!
