Just an update. I was able to buy a used iPhone 3g, 8gb unit via craigslist. This one is from December 2008, looks pretty chewed up. Screen has 2 short scratches about 30mm long and several other shorter scratches and the back looks like it's been through the meat grinder. I'm exaggerating of...

Mylan, If you look at some of the guys who responded to my questions on the first page on what Apps they use, I can see using many of those once I get an iPhone! I was thinking very much like you do. But I can see getting used to having those apps!

Mylan, The rumors I know of are, with percentage of likelyhood: 1. 5 megapixel camera, 90% 2. Removable battery (unlikely given how Apple is making all their products with no battery access) 30% 3. OLED screen, 90% 4. Apple build dual core processor with more RAM. 80% 5. Front facing video...

I can't wait Dave! Let's hope the iPhone rumors for the next generation are mostly true.

Sam, Yes, I think it might be better to stay out the gray market of smart phones! Sounds like more trouble then it's worth! But I should wait. Thanks for the inputs.

Now I am wondering if I can buy a used iPhone 3g and use it with the SIM card from my 5 year old RAZR as a temporary phone with no data plan till the 4G comes out. If the SIM card doesn't work, then I can use it as an iPod. If this isn't kosher to talk about, then I understand.

I need one to measure it's physical size. That's one thing I'll be doing with it. I need precise measurements.

I was looking for used iPhones on Craigslist. I just want to see if I can get one cheap, not necessarily working or need service for it. And it might help on my project till the 4g comes out. Used prices range from $280 without the charger and headphones to $600 still in the box.

Dave, iPhone specifically. No one will lend me one, but I might be able to find one. And I don't plan to buy one and then return it. So I'll see how I can work through this without one. I do still want to get an iPhone! But now I'm torn with waiting for the newest one. From the rumors I'm...

It would advantageous to own the current rev iPhone for me. Only for this particular job I'm doing. I need to have a physical sample to measure off of. Unless you guys know where I can get a dead one, I could use that.

Dave, I don't know anything. I am just thinking that my usual M.O. is to usually not buy the first iteration of a product. The new iPhone coming this June/July could be totally new inside and out. I'm sure it will be fantastic. On the other hand, I may buy the iPad later this year when it's...

Terrific! Thanks for the feedback on how you're using your iPhone and what you are using on them! Thanks! Agreed on Handbrake, I've done a few movies for my iPod. It's amazing how many use Google Maps! It will be interesting if Google will continue on the iPhone considering how Apple and Google...

You guys are no fun! If I didn't get one, I can just get a new battery for my Razr and keep using that. What I am partly dealing with is I'm working on a project now where having it would be beneficial for reference. I can't get more into that. Maybe I could ask those out there with an...

I am a self employed freelance designer. I have a 4 or 5 year old Razr on AT&T that still works, though the original battery charge time has gone shorter and shorter! I work out of my home studio a lot, so I have internet access on the desktop and laptop via my Airport base station. I do work...
