Jailbroken? :p

Not too sure. It's kind of like copyrighted vs copywritten. Very different meanings! I think jailbreaked is the appropriate one. :p

I'm going to bed though... Goodnight.


I do need to figure out how I can travel internationally for work here in the near future though... that will get me a sure fire upgrade to a iPhone 4s. :p

Shouldn't advocate it, but if you want the least headaches, you'd be better off jailbreaking the sucker--then popping in a prepaid sim from whatever carrier is local to your country of travel. You'll pay way way less vs roaming.

I've never bothered jailbreaking any of my iPhones... it's not worth the hassle.

It's only worth it if you travel a lot.

What will Siri be like on the iPhone?

You have to watch the video on this page:
http://www.apple.com/i​phone/features/siri.ht​ml (external link)

Also, if you have time, watch the Apple keynote video from today, and skip to where they present Siri. :)

I plan just to move them over to AT&T :D I have never liked Sprint (which I sued for years and they currently use) and if they have to move, might as well move to the same carrier I am with.

What was your experience with Sprint? I'm considering Sprint because of their unbeatable Unlimited plan, but not sure about the current coverage and customer service. I had Sprint a long time ago (when they were still GSM). I had ATT when it was called Cingular, lol! On Verizon right now.

+1 This is why I would try to jailbreak mine, if I am to get one.

I'm normally not fond of voice commands, but this feels more like talking than issuing a voice command. You can ask questions naturally instead of giving stiff prompts. I would probably use the Siri feature. :)

To get to the other side. Duh. If I'm crossing the street it's because I need to reach the other side.

Mainly their customer service sucked. We would get weird charges, we would call them to get it fixed. It would take a long time, they would tell us it was fixed, next bill... still there. After several times like that I left them, my parents stayed with them.

Anyways, nite all!

I've been having no issues with AT&T over here but, Verizon isn't so great in my neighborhood. Plus, I have the unlimited data plan at a set price and it would be limited with another provider. :)
