iphone users I understand your pain

So much promise but not much delivered.

I am a windows mobile user. Out of the box windows mobile does everything you need to do on a PDA and mobile without needing any app’s. It is quite stable too like that.

If not you can install many free and paid app’s. You think of it and you have an app for it.

In fact the windows mobile can be transformed into an iphone with slide to unlock and all the other features. Even get the safari browsing experience for free on opera on your windows mobile.

For half the price of an iphone.

Can you turn an iphone into windows mobile you might ask why would anyone do that, but can you? That is what I am talking about.

I wonder why other operating systems didn’t take off. They never allowed this much customization and openness. Look at palm OS, its in the dump already.

Apple if Iphone isn’t opened up soon you are doomed to be over taken by the copy machines at Microsoft.

It doesn’t take much to create a touch screen UI similar to iphone on a windows mobile.

    Hi Prashant, I have got a iphone from the grey market. What precautions do Ineed to take since the phone is not launched in India? I get to hear that thephone can get locked. All that I want to do is to transfer some music from thelaptop to the phone. Any other suggestions?Reply from Prasanth I am planning on buying one soon.Since you are planning on only using the iphone for music usage. like an ipod youcan buy the ipod touch in india with warranty from retailers. If you don’t know what ipod touch its iphone without the phone feature. See here for all the online retailers who are selling ipod touch in india at pretty reasonable price.http://shopping.rediff.com/shopping/offers/shop-apple-ipod.htmhttp://www.gadgetsguru.in/apple-ipod-touch-16gb–price-specification-buy-india-4591.aspxhttp://www.gadgetsguru.in/apple-ipod-touch-8gb–price-specification-buy-india-4590.aspxIndiatimes Shoppinghttp://www.cafegadgets.com/product_detail.php?product_id=1129&pid=2http://www.cafegadgets.com/product_detail.php?product_id=1128&pid=2If you already bought one and just want me to give you some tips then here they areWhile using itunes to put music one be careful not to update the firmware. If its set to auto update try and remove to manual. Once you update you unlocked iphone will get locked and you will have to wait for someone to find an unlock procedure or take to the grey market to unlock it again.If possible avoid itunes and use other programs to put music on the player.
