Means? Iphone 3G was priced less in india when compaired to US price

Carrier Locked + 3g features which most of us cannot use now and which ofcourse was the 'big' selling point = 31k...well its big money for me!

^^It is pretty darn expensive, but cheaper if you compare it with the US price. Also, as I said, to sell 3GS, they might not reduce the price of 3G. They will probably just stop selling it.

^^You can browse through various jailbreak-apps using Cydia on your iPhone. An alternative to browse/search using a browser on your computer is here:

The best way to look for good apps is to browse through various categories of apps available..

Jailbreaking is a common practice among iPod Touch/iPhone users these days.

If you J/B your iPod Touch you can install a wealth of applications from Cydia that you can't find on the App store. Also you can install the App store apps for free. You can also theme,modify and do all the crazy stuff with your iPod Touch.

What you loose is your warranty but that can be easily revived by restoring the iPod Touch from iTunes.

So, You don't really loose anything by Jailbreaking you iPod.

When is iPhone OS 3.0 coming out officially? I'm waiting for it!

re: Official iPhone/iPod Touch owners thread

Yeah, turned my MacBook on to sync music to my iPhone and found that it's already out! Updating right away! But I won't jailbreak it any sooner.

re: Official iPhone/iPod Touch owners thread

I did something very stupid.... downloaded the update via appldnld directlink and then restored (using shift+click) my phone to the 3.0 file as itunes refused to update claiming server unavailable. I knew that this was gonna delete all my data but could not wait further for upgrading through itunes was all jammed.

Not sure if the update was worth though as copy paste, tethering etc were already available though jailbreak.... but certainly these features on OS 3.0 are very polished. This ideally should have had been update 1.2 or something..... sad it took so long for apple

re: Official iPhone/iPod Touch owners thread

There was report for apple server being down but if you have sync your iphone before then your data should be safe!

@OS 3.0:
I really liked the new features.
Copy paste and message forward is very nice!

Conns:
No video for 3G.
and what the hell is PUSH NOtification. If at the end of the day i don't get the message on the screen and for each IMs i have to open the IM app again and again then it just sukcs! I was hoping something better with PN! ( I have used the IM+ lite app from app store)

@Palm Pre!
Today i had a party with my clients and one of them had a palm pre. So got a chance to look into it.

Impression on first hand:

Pros:
I really liked the look and feel of the OS.
The phone looks solid.
Camera is better than expected

Cons:
Plastic like feeling.
Screen is small.
The keys in keyboard in small. I would better prefer the iPhone KB

At the end i would say Palm Pre is never a competition in style with iPhone. But ya the Palm OS and Iphone Mac OS should be a good fight! The Palm OS really looks so colorful and beautiful

No easy way for tethering?
I'm in Punjab right now and using internet on my MacBook from my phone only! Tethering is a piece of cake!
In your iPhone just go to Settings>General>Network>Internet Tethering and turn it on. Then follow the instructions to enable it on your Mac/PC.
