I was given an iphone ,,, well the reports that they aren't selling in Japan maybe true , so soft bank let u upgrade to the 8 gig phone , free .
Now I run Linux . ....... dot dot ..... the only way I could reliably get the phone to work was by running windows in a virtual machine and itunes ,,,( its jailbroken )
I must say the only real prob I have is battery life ,,
its a lovely interface which with my poor eyesight, is easy to read ....Typing is a little bit of a pain ,,,but I have copy paste , bluetooth ,,etc
but document readers ??? and file management ???? ( apple you twonk )
I cannot understand businesses sometimes ...IF they free up the restrictions ,,more people would buy the phone and , if the products were better than open source ,,, it ( itunes ) would rule ...
I like itunes , ( i dont like booting into windows ) there is a lot of crap in there ( itunes AND windows ) .... but overall its easy to use ..
As soon as they manage to port linux onto the iphone ( they have but its still rough ) ...then I will dual boot .....( be lovely just to boot into a linux iphone !!!)
