Re: [Skunkworks] iphone 3G S
The iphone 3G S is out. Landscape keyboard is the main thing.. and of course cut ,copy and paste.. Preffered the Blackberry for the latter but I guess we are now =. A compass no GPS yet !!!!! .. not good!
I thought that was tomorrow. Or maybe you got an earlier copy from Steve (Jobs) or from Guanzhou Province in the People's Republic. On Thu, Jun 18, 2009 at 5:54 PM, GITAHI DAVID <dgitmol@yahoo.co.uk> wrote:

In Sarit - an 16GB goes for about Ksh. 94k [according to someone who visited there] -- or is it the 8GB ? Thats way more than USD. 1000 ..
Hi, In Sarit, we had a few phones that we used to sell, and i'll hold ground on that one, we partnered with Orange and now sell via them as carrier partners. I'd like to clarify this for now, the phones we did have were brought in for a few clients which were than cancelled as orders which gave us room to sell them. I am not disclosing what is going to happen soon however there may be a change in the market trend with regards to the phone. The pricing indicated below is close to what it was retailing at from our store, it was the 16GB and Officially unlocked. Still clarifying, wasnt and isnt a product of our market so we're not retailing them. Best, On Jun 18, 2009, at 7:03 PM, ndungu stephen wrote:

The former designs of the Nokia,Samsung,LG were not like that - granted - the way these giants manufactured phones were influenced by the iPhone and its features...
On which phone is better than which does not really matter. The thing is there is nothing like the iPhone. Some people like Motorolas, Alcatels and Sagems and if they think they are good phone, well, they are good phones. On Thu, Jun 18, 2009 at 7:02 PM, ndungu stephen <ndungustephen@gmail.com>wrote:

U know just because someone came up with something first doesnt mean that someone else cannot pick up they're designs and come up with something better. So your argument(s) holds no water. Just like the mac, the iPhone is good (and largely overrated) but there are other products out there which are far much better than it if only you look. And by better I mean - they come with all the bells and whistles that the iPhone come with, with two cherries on top - they are not locked down - you can get apps from wherever, develop your own and pimp it up with whatever apps, tones, etc you like without needing the iTunes store authorization crap Heck you still cant even use bluetooth to send files!! Aesthetic-wise I agree they are ahead of the pack but functionality-wise there are others who have beat them hands down. -Billy On Thu, Jun 18, 2009 at 12:05 PM, Philip Musyoki <pmusyoki@gmail.com> wrote:
