This is my first review on mouthshut.
I have been a sort of gizmo freek. I have used Nokia 371 & 72 used blackberry and many other phones. Although I must say I have beena loyal customer of Nokia. I had e71 for more than a yr and I wanted to get it replaced. But after reading lots of review infact negative review about iphone I was bit uncertain. Still with an open mind I go to one of the shops in the mall at start of alpha lane.
Now I had following querries which he helped me finding a answer
Can I forward the sms? YES
Can I send it to multiple people ? YES (no extra software required)
Does it gets locked everytime I shut down the cell/ NO (I have restarted my cell 7times to check it)
Can I reply to emails of microsoft exchange and other emails like hotmail gmail yahoo? YES (and it gives a very proper font formatting and does not changes it to plain text instead of HTML)
So I was like I guess I will give it a try
I bought it for 34k factory unloacked (gt 6k for my old e71 so had to pay 28k)
Now its a week and below is my observation
Outstanding voice clarity
compase is a good tool
ipod without doubt is excellent
camera is pretty decent Now please dont compare it with a camera but its wonderful vry neat althoug in night its a bit difficult for clarity
only and only issue I have faced till now is for everythign I need the itune software but guess its ok
Guys if you want any info pls ask the question and I will try it on my iphone 3GS and reply
but its a class phone and jst WOWWWWWW :)

This is to continue my review. Now what I did is I myself jailbreaked my iPhhone. jailbreaking means just removing the restriction of apple to only install apple signature applciation Now I can install themes, have my customized wallpaper, and many many many more things
i had 3 issues with iphone
1 while writing SMS it would not show character count. Now this can lead to writing bigger sms and lead to extra cost. After jailbreaking I insalled iRealSMS3.0 and it replaced my exisitng inbuilt SMS application and now I have all the features like a normal nokia phone. I can creata folders and save messages to draft and also have the word count so this issues is resolved
I had a issue tht frm bluetooth I cannot send or receive any music or pic or anything. So I installed iBlueNova application and guess what now I can share everything you tell me songs of pics or even notes and other file.
I also installed emailPlus which helped me in allowing to attach emails which I send and also edit attachments .
I guess now I dont see any issue with anything.
I love my iphone
guys pls feel free to ask me any douts if you have for iphone I am sure you would love this master piece.
