Gumballl Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 The ICCT forum contains countless posts about web sites being blocked and ISPs providing slow internet speeds. I cannot imagine what an iPhone would be used for in Thailand, other than for making phone calls. Seems to me you could do that with a less expensive phone.

Kyosuken Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 Well done apple Making a brand new sexy phone that lacks basic support to many things others do for... cheaper price ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thohts Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Thanks for the tip on the Polaris. It sounds like the phone I want to wait for. I have had one of HTC's older smartphones with an OMAP850 CPU for a couple of years and, until a couple of months ago, was still one of the most advanced phones in the market. (Imagine people gawking at the same cell phone for 2 years straight!) It has worked like a charm, even after dropping it a number of times. Its quality is superb. I will snap one of these up as soon as it comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjo o tjim Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 The iPhone does have a SIM slot, but it is carrier-locked to AT&T. Typically you can unlock them after 3 months of service. The major advantage that the iPhone has over anything else on the market is that it is a clean user interface in an extremely compact design. The Windows Mobile phones are just sluggish to me; the Blackberry does a better job at performance. The iPhone has a chance of pulling off quite a coup. Rumors are that they expect to sell 1M units in the first week! RIM sells 1M units per month with a very established channel. Curious how many HTC sells... looks like it is close to 1M/month.
