Just finished setting up my iPhone 4S it is just mind boggling. I just realized that I can actually talk into the icon and right now instead of typing I am talking into the device and it is typing for me. This is just an incredible phone I don't know why anybody is knocking them down. If you don't have an iPhone 4 already, you should definitely update you iPhone to an iPhone 4S. Fastest phone I have ever had. The Internet browsing speed is on par with the iPad. Loving my new iPhone 4S.

Sure does... AT&T gave me a little bit of issues activating but it was well worth the wait.

I'd like to add that AT&T also offered me to keep the unlimited data plan at the old price. That alone was worth staying with AT&T. I love this phone. Why would anybody need an iPad beside it having a bigger screen? I could never access this forum on my old iPhone 3G; at least not this fast. Glad I made the switch. Let's see how it pairs to the E60, tomorrow. Night, everybody!

I just bought 2 of them and they paired with the 07 E60 and 08 E60 with no problems.
I think the $200 contract price is a great deal. My wife wanted a new camera and had her wait for this phone. Now she has an 8MB camera AND an HD 1080p video camera along with a great phone.

Did you guys hear what our masshole politicians do? Back in the summer, they snuck in a bill that Mass residents have to pay sales taxes on the full value of cell phones even if we get them at a discount because we sign a 2-year deal plan. So, even though I paid $299 for the phone, I had to pay the sale tax on the full-face value of the phone as if I bought it without the 2 year plan. In other words, I had to pay sales taxes on $799.00 which is how much the phone costs without the plan.
I can't wait for two things: 1) I can't wait for the elections so that I can vote against all incumbents. 2) I can't wait to retire and move the hell away from the shithole that has become Massachusetts. We're supposed to have some of the most brilliant minds in the country, yet we keep voting the same a-holes to office and give them a farking blank check for them to do whatever the hell they want. Ugh!!
I still love my 4S though.

In California we've always had to pay tax on the full retail price of subsidized phones.
How is Siri? I've read some hilarious post about the quirky comebacks. I fear it may end up being a gimmick in the not so distant future. I'm picturing trying to communicate with this machine on a crowded Manhattan street where it will eventually come to yelling to get it to hear me. No thanks. iPhone's are fun toys, Blackberry is beyond boring but when you need regular international communication, nothing beats BBM. Not to mention that I can pay for 30mb of global data and not even come close to using it all, with full time use.
