here in Sāin, only MOvistar have them,and I use another company for intensive everyday use (Orange)
So can I just "ublock it" and use it 100% without jailbreak?
I have found a NEW 16gb white one per 350 -400e. but it is 3G, worth it?

yes, I believe you still need to jailbreak if you want to unlock
I haven't done it myself on the 3GS but everyone says its simple and straightforward
the 3G (with V3 firmware) is perfectly fine if you don't want 32gb, done want a digital compass, don't want voice control, etc... (and don't want the latest! )

why do you feel you need to jailbreak the iphone? what do you want to do that you can't do with a standard 3GS and the app store?
as for when will thex next iphone come? I wouldn't expect anything new before next June/July as that seems to be the trend now.
More Bluetooth profiles; especially file transfer - a la SE phones.
More application choices, multitasking switcher application.
just a few more choices. something I'm considering moving to iPhone after I bought my wife's iPod Touch 2G 16GB.
how much thicker is the 3GS vs the iPodTouch 2G?
Thanks.

yeah yeah... lol
I know what the general reasons are for jailbreaking, I was just curious what ros-mari's specific reasons were, and it seems it was only for unlocking purposes

you don't see too many iPhone bugs... but...
Uh Oh: iPhone OS 3.0 Never Fully Deletes Your Emails (gizmodo)

odd how that video showed "how" he chose to delete the email. I thought opening the email then clicking the Trash icon at the bottom menu also deletes?
Well what happens, using either method, if you fully power off the device. Then powering on and trying the Spotlight search!?
Don't be surprised that this is Mac SO X in the works as it archives data for fast retrieval should something be deleted and needed to be retrieved. however this shouldn't happen and throws ALL those iPhone toting businesses as complete FOOLS for choosing iPhone as a secure platform that hasn't been tried and tested in scenarious such as this!
I almost was able to upgrade from Rogers today, their new HUP policy of no smartphone upgrades for ANYONE, in 2yrs sucks the big one. I cannot WAIT to jump ship to Telus/Bell when their HSPA launches.

Funny how many of the members who's forum contributions I most valued have now gravitated to the iPhone sections and have mostly bought iPhones now (even thos that were very vociferous in it's condemnation) leaving behind the ill considered yappings of the fanboi's in the SE forums. That if anything speaks more about the culture shift Apple have wrought in my opinion and how tough it's going to be for others to push back. |

I never bashed it, or hated it... I just didn't think it was for me and I thought it was a fad
I originally got the 2g a couple of years ago with the idea of keeping it for a month, just so I had experienced it. I even had a couple of people lined up ready to take it off my hands after that.
infact it has hardly left my hand since, and now I've started writing a couple of apps for it too!
if they sell well on the app store, expect to see me posting from somewhere exotic
