10. I know how you feel. I work at a Borders near an AT&T/Cingular store...
and in the same mall as an Apple store. Plus it's Friday. And it's raining. Did I mention they're in the middle of some serious construction at this mall? It's gonna SUCK going to work tonight. x(

5. Apple people are crazy
:crazy:

For about the same amount of money, you could get a LG KE850 Prada Phone, It can do everything the iPhone does, maybe even better.

7. Shop around
I found It for about $500.00

It's also unlocked, your not stuck with AT&T like you are with the iPhone.

9. But no 3G. It has many problems according to CNET:
http://reviews.cnet.com/smart-phones/lg-prada-aka-ke850/4505-6452_7-32316442.html

This particular one would be a deal-breaker for me:

"Texting messages was a little trickier, though, as the Prada does not provide a virtual QWERTY keyboard; rather, you have to text messages with a virtual alphanumeric keypad just like on a normal phone."


And it's no iPod:

"Audio quality of the music player was similarly satisfactory. Bass sounded a little weak, and it won't fully replace a standalone music player, but it's good enough for a quick music fix. We would recommend using a headset over the phone's speakers, as the headset provided superior sound quality"


But it does have a built in camcorder.


So for LG's $699 price at Tiger Direct, I'd rather an iPhone.

14. And for the same money as a Porsche, you could buy a dozen Yugos.
You pays your money and you takes your choice.

Yugo?

Porsche?

I know which I'd rather have.

12. That was my impression as well.
On the better quality one, you can make out that he says something like "gimme the fuckin' microphone", so he did grab what he wanted.
