ok so as of now i have a VZW 6800 and i hate it, it lags like crazy and is a overall downgrade from the previous windows mobile OS. so i think im going to ditch it. im thinking about getting either a sprint instinct or apple iphone 3g.

so a quick break down, the instinct comes with live tv, music downloading, faster net work HTML web browsing, blue tooth, and amazing GPS. (490 minutes and unlimited date 69$)


iphone 3g, slightly slower 3g network, better web browsing, better picture quality, and OS, (no bluetooth, laggy GPS,) what kind of plan would i get that would be similar to what i listed above idk

and whats your .2 about both phones

i watched that many times... im still indecisive

just looking for someone else's 2 cents

 

Instinct is just a touch screen meaning you have to press it, and sometimes multiple times to get a response, unlike the iphone, a multi touch, meaning you dont have to press the screen, and you can slide ur finger across it with response, on the intstinct ud have to press and hold down

 

yeah i knew the instinct was pressure sensitive, that doesn't really rule out the phone for me

 

Go use both phones, you'll find out that the Instinct is a piece of ____ compared to the iPhone. The Instinct is nothing more than the LG Voyager with a few more features.

 

hahaha, do you know what the plan on the iphone would cost i havent gone to the store yet, 400-500 minutes would be fine, plus data?

 

I know this is old and I dont know if you've gotten a phone or if you have the ipod connection but the iphone 3g doesnt work with the ipod connectivity in the scions.

 

the old one does though what happened

 

The new one uses a new charger or something. From what I understand, they're working on a fix for it.

 

old iphone had bluetooth but the new doesnt have it????

 

The new iPhone has bluetooth, but it's limited to calls only.

 

The new apple iPhone and iTouch devices are compatible with Scion radio equipped with iPod control capability. These devices will function like all previous generation iPods but will not charge. This is due to a design change on Apple’s part that was not communicated to Scion and it’s audio suppliers until after the launch of the latest generation of Scion radios.

Scion currently has no plans of introducing a new cable or adapter that will allow these devices to charge. We recommend contacting Apple directly to inquire if Apple has any intention of offering an adapter cable for this issue.


Also, we have made engineering changes for 10MY Scion Audio. But no "fix" for the current ones.

 

old iphone has bluetooth too.. i know because my boss got one and he is always talking on bluetooth.

 

Will it blend?

Plan would run you about $70 + texting. That's with Unlimited Data and Email.

 

the thing with getting the iphone is my girlfriend wants one also so we can get a family plan and pay 80 a month each. thats not that bad, if i was paying for the sprint plan by myself it would also be 80. so i might as well get the better phone if i can do the family plan

 

if you really want a nice phone... and want to dish out some $$

look up the HTC Touch Pro or Samsung F700.

both iPhone killersss..

but if your broke buy an iphone
