Okay so jumped on the bandwagon last night... i bought an iphone :D
I called the Retention Dept @ Rogers, after waiting for 40 min to speak to a human being, some girl came on the phone and offered me this:
300 Daytime min
Free eve/ weekends after 6pm
500 megs of Data
Caller display
Name display
Visual voice messaging
10000 text messages
for $51.45 INCLUDING the sytem access fee & 911, but taxes extra.
AAAAAAAAANNNND she gave me the phone for $179, instead of $249 (with a mail in rebate)...
Did i do good?!?!? She said that most people use 300-400 megs of data and that i wouldn't need anything more, but if i did, it was only $5 extra a month... you think i'll go over?
In all honesty, i was sold on the iphone @ the Gift on Sat when my boyfriend busted out his iphone and started using "Shazam"... that application rocks! I was totally sold on the phone after seeing that, and the wicked electronic version of sudoko... totally hooked! :p |

Dial *611, Say "cancel my phone" and keep your ears peeled for the fastest customer service you've ever received. |

Just speaking from personal experience. ;)
I had a wicked plan from retentions, but then canceled all my options (thereby losing my credits on them) and got the $30 iPhone Value Pack. I still kept the credit on my voice plan though.
$15 - 250 weekday minutes, evenings start at 6:00 PM, unltd. evenings and weekends.
$30 - iPhone value pack = 10,000 SMS, VVM, CiD, WhoCalled, 500MB data
-$10 - credit on iPhone value pack. (first rep didnt add it, I called the regular sales dept. and said I was promised a $10 credit on this plan by a Roger's sales associate. Sales on the phone said "oh right, that's our current promotion")
+SAF
+911 surcharge.
+Tax
Total: $47.97 |

My mom bought a screen protector from them for her instinct and loves it. Although I just got the Griffin Elan case (for free) after seeing the videos on this site Im tempted to purchase the full body protector. |

They work very well but they're just clear...
You can get a skin from one of the two companies that I mentioned and get the same protection but with a personal touch... |

invisable shields aren't that great.
They start pealing after awhile and collect dust & stick on the edges. Also that orange peel effect was an issue.
I was gonna get one, but then I saw all that dust collection ... |

METAL GEAR SOLID - Coming to the iPhone!
 
Earlier this month, we reported on a widely circulated rumor that Metal Gear Solid may be coming to the Xbox 360. Variations of this rumor suggested that Konami had, not an Xbox 360 title in store for the gaming world, but an iPhone/iPod Touch version as evidenced by the “mgst” in the teaser URL at Konami’s website. Those perceptive rumors ended up being spot on as Konami announced today the future availability of four new titles, including Metal Gear Solid Touch for the iPhone and iPod Touch. The four titles: Dance Dance Revolution S Lite, Frogger, Silent Hill The Escape and Metal Gear Solid Touch. The games are expected to be released according to the following schedule:
Dance Dance Revolution S Lite : From Late December, 2008 in Japan and North America Frogger : From Late December, 2008 in Japan, North America, and Europe Silent Hill The Escape : From Late December,2008 in Japan, North America, and Europe Metal Gear Solid Touch : Spring, 2009 in Japan, North America, and Europe This is great news for Apple and PS3 fans alike. PS3 owners can also take some consolation in knowing that their exclusive title, Metal Gear Solid, has not defected to the Xbox 360 platform while Apple fans can look forward to some hot new games hitting the iPhone and iPod Touch. |

There are imitators...
The actual Invisishield is good quality helicopter tape made by 3M...
Doesn't peel on it's own very easily...
But if I were Miss Intangible, I'd get a personalized one... |
