I haven’t picked up a 3GS yet, mainly because I think the prices are just insane. I have T-Mobile so I’ll have to crack & jailbreak it anyway, which is no big deal because I have my 1st gen iphone running the 3.0 update. I hear the speed of the 3GS is probably the biggest improvement.

Got a new 3gs the other day. In settings I’ve set it to access Favorites when the home button is double clicked. But it doesn’t work. It will only access search on a single click. No double click function.

With my razor I can control the phone with my bluetooth headset. How can I do that with a GS? In the Apple store that I can’t. I have to pick up the phone and say my commands to it?

I mainly use my iPhone for playing games, it’s the best gaming machine ever imo.

First timer here also and the vendors far outweigh the the few shortcomings. This device is a pleasue to use and doesn’t require hacks to make it do what I need it to. It’s truly the closest thing to what I’ve been hoping for since cell phones have existed. It’s a little pocket computer that makes calls. Great for email and web and so much more – I was in one of our cars the other day installing a dash mount for a new GPS and was able to doublecheck how part of the dash came off without going back inside by hitting up a forum post and watching a video. Can’t wait to see what devs will do with new capabilities of the 3G S,

This is my first ever iPhone and pretty much agree with what you've said Chad - you sum it up well so thanks for the review.

I love that it's the first mobile I've ever had that I've not had to refer to any instructions to setup/use. I love the app's. I love the iPod, especially the voice control. I love (almost) everything about it!

What I don't love? The bundled ear phones don't stay in my ears!!! ...anyone else have that problem?

Also having had Nokia's and an HTC Touch 2 I miss having a better camera as the pictures I've taken so far have had a lot of noise in low light and even a bit of photoshop magic can't really fix them. Also with only one camera you can't do video calls.

But hey, the benefits way exceed the shortcomings and the time saved in messing around trying to get things working is such a refreshing change.

Anyone else a first time iPhone user? What do you think?

yeah the “clip” has been around for awhile… it was on the headphones from my old black and white screen, 20GB ipod… the one side of it didn’t detach though, since it didn’t have to navigate around the mic/vol.ctrl…

@Budwizer

There's a lil white piece at the base of the wire where it first separates into two wires. Its notched on one side so you can unclip it and move it up to the ear pieces and reattach it to the wire.
