Is anyone getting an iphone?

pollyjean23 · Marc Jacobs

I'm not getting one. I like Mac stuff; and my husband is a Mac-dude (can't think of anything else to call it). He's a designer. Neither of us are interested in the iPhone though. i think there might be a little Mac-Fatigue going on - - based on what I have seen on the internet, TV, and from people in general. Everone has their opinion, of course.

There is already a line (somewhere) in Charlotte. I overheard a woman saying at lunch today.

Hubby's getting off work early in case there is a line. He's super pumped!

Drew · Gucci

I want one, but I'm locked in a contract with Verizon too! It's probably for the best, I don't even use the features on my cell phone as it is.

luckylily · Gucci

Not me. While I love the idea of phone and music together, I don't like iPods. There are much better mp3 players on the market; Apple has just done a better job of marketing the iPod. I want to wait and see what some of the competitors do to respond. Also, if I do decide to give into iPhone, I'd rather wait for a later generation.

And, at the end of the day, my current phone and mp3 player are working fine for me.

Nope. I like Sprint. However, if Sprint ever came out with something comparable, I'd think about it.

erin · Chanel

no way i'd pay 5-600 for a cell phone. (even if it does other stuff) anyhow i love tmobile.

HeatherLynn · Gucci

Nope. I would never buy something this technologically advanced in a first generation. I also think it is an insane amount of money to pay for something. You can have two devices that do all the same things for A LOT cheaper. I think there are much better things to spend money on. Now, with that said, I would like to see one because they are pretty cool, but I think people only want them because of Apple's marketing techniques.

dangergirl · Kate Spade

i like the look of it, but its waaaayyyy too expensive for a phone - i'd much rather spend the money on clothes :)

brazilian · Dooney & Bourke

My BF works at AT&T and I got to read a manual on the iPhone, before they had it in store. It does sooo much more than just a phone and iPod together! They all thought that it wouldnt be that great of a phone, but its awesome!

I havent talked to him today, but Im sure they have a line going. In NY, they had people waiting outside of stores yesterday!

I hope he'll let me come into to the store later so I can play with it. biggrin

jj · Kate Spade

i really really want one, but will wait until round 2 comes out. that should be easy though, since the first will be sold out in minutes.

AllieGurl · Marc Jacobs

No way - hubbi is anti apple products .

ranchera20 · Marc Jacobs

NO WAY!!! My dad is also anti "i" anything which includes Ipod, Itunes, Iphone....

kenzie · Chanel

I really want one. It's definitely way more than a phone and music player. It's pretty much everything rolled into one, which is why I want it. And I have AT&T, so if I want it, I'll be able to get it without breaking a contract.

subwolley · Kate Spade

No, I'm afraid I'd loose it. And that's an expensive phone to replace. I have an iPod nano, and that's all I want from Apple.

Kelly · Hermes

I don't think so. I see a day in the future when it would be absolutey insane to have multiple devices, but until that day I'm happy with what I've got. Also, I wouldn't buy anything like this first generation out. I could see myself doing it in a couple years though, when the prices have become reasonable and the product is a bit better. But I'm not super into tech stuff so I never mind waiting. I didn't even get a DVD player until 2 years ago!

TheLovelyLady71 · Hermes

Yeah, same here, I'm pretty happy w/Sprint, BUT! If they do come out w/something similiar, I 'might' consider it. I don't even use all of my cell's features either, so.... LOL

kealoha · Kate Spade

nope. technology is always progressing, and in a year, i suspect Apple will have something bigger and/or better. plus, i'm happy w/Sprint.

Bastet · Kate Spade

I have geeky gadget lust for an iphone, but I'm not going to buy one. I don't use all the features my current cell phone has, so I can't justify speding $500 or $600 on one with even more features. I'll wait until the second generation comes out and then give it some serious thought.

But, I was at a party over the weekend and one guy had an iphone. I got to play with it and it was really cool.

NCshopper · Hermes

Not me. I never buy new technology. Even just waiting a year usually means the products are better and cheaper. I think it's pretty pointless to buy a first generation anything.
