Seriously, now you're being absurd. The iPhone is far from a piece of junk. Never had the BB so I can't rule on it. But honestly people, this is getting ridiculous.

I have a question. Have you ever owned an iPhone??? If you've owned one for 6 months or more then I can respect your decision to call it junk. But since the 4S has only been out for 2 months, I'm going to discount your close minded comment.

Jkhonea, you live in Snellville?? I'm not too far from you. I'm outside of Conyers.

Sure am, you'll have to shoot me a PM and we can get together for a beer one night.

The main reason that deterred my wife from the iPhone was having to pay for some apps that you get for free with android. A friend of hers at work just switched to apple from android and had regrets because of the apps she had to buy. Its just what I heard.

Hey.....Thank you all so much.

I guess I'm going to see what she thinks of the Stratosphere (After I play with it a little).....if she likes it, then so be it.
If not, It'll have to be the iphone.

Honestly my biggest concern was losing the 'double your data' promotion.


It was also reassuring to know that 2G is good and I did forget about wifi.


This forum is the best!!!

Did you see that thread about somebody who thought he had bricked his GNex and somebody else walked him through it in the middle of the night (he actually did it for him taking control of his desktop) I was like WOW! That's awesome!

Thanks again

Without getting off topic, ^ I was reading that through the day yesterday! He got it sorted out? That's awesome.

There are free apps and paid apps on Apple, just like Android. May also have been a factor of having to buy some apps again on Apple format instead of Android. There is a misconception from a lot of people that there are no free apps on Apple. That is very wrong.

I was following your concern about losing the double your data promotion and was curious about that. What's the reason that you were told you would lose that promotion going with the iPhone? I haven't had to keep up with that so I wasn't sure what details they have tied into that. Seems like you would still be the same since you would still be keeping the data package.

I've been unlimited since I've been with them for years so honestly haven't kept up with all of the jockeying data that they have been doing.

Introduce her to the incredible 2. Phone is cheap in price, but awesome in performance. I gave my wife one and she loves it....

+! on the Incred 2. I finally talked by wife (screaming and yelling) from her old LG Envy to the Incred 2 and she absolutely loves it. And I have to be honest...it is a really good phone. If 4g is not a must, I don't think you can go wrong...and you keep her in the Android family.

Well to be fair the promotion does clearly say only for 4G phones which the iPhone is not. The article below sheds more light

It appears the entire purpose of the promotion appears to be to clear bandwidth for iPhone users. I don't really blame them.....seems like a smart move. Clear bandwidth for current smartphone customers...gain a whole crop of new ones.

I hear what your saying. I'm only going by what my friends at work are telling me who all have iPhones as well as my wife's coworkers. One of the main factors is the, correct me if I'm wrong, fact that you can get free music on android and not apple. I've never owned an apple product so I don't know if this is true. Just going by what I heard.

My wife loves her iPhone. I am constantly ragging on her for owning a fruit phone with an iddy biddy screen. But...after all that fun...she likes it. It is said that iPhones are good for women and people who like standard functions. I know it hurts friend, but if she likes it u say the hell with it. Keep her happy.

This thread is excellent and hilarious. Speaking as a female? I have tiny hands and while juggling my RAZR isn't the easiest, this is the best phone I've played with/had. Make sure she has a grippy case and maybe get her a stylus (I use one for work on my phone and it makes the huge screen easier to deal with).
