Dec 17 2008, 06:40 PM
the only place in kingo i've ever lost reception thru voda was in undercover big w carpark, i had reception at SPG mook

the only place i lose reception is on the southern outlet kingston bound for about 800m just after the mt nelson turn off

they're implementing 3G early 09, so will extend coverage by i think it was 50km radius for every tower

Dec 17 2008, 08:15 PM
i think they have dude, n95 was ment to of gone off...
my ex has one, and her brother, really good phone..
so the n96 i reckon would be better, and the n97 is ment to be the phone to compete and beat the iPhone...doesnt come out till early/mid next year though i think, i know the nokia rep

the iPhones we got down here were the gay ones that failed heaps tho i heard
the original apple iPhone that was released in america had like a titanium and glass casing, where we got dumpd with the 3g one thats all plastic
so i heard

Dec 17 2008, 10:21 PM
iphones are nearly as over-rated as ae86s....so thats saying something....
the new samsung omnia and the re-release of the new HTC's should and prolly will smash the iphone out of the market

sk baz about his experience with LG phones 
LG's are the biggest pieces of shit, day i got my ks360 a wire broke in it, I had the phone 5 hours, got a new one the next day, and had it for a week, it kept turning off and doing stupid shit, imop, Nokias are the shit, the N95 is awesome and has a nice 5mp camera, video camera is awesome on it, doesn't LAG at all like some nokias, has all that memory card jazz, If i was to get a new mobile it would be the N95, DON'T get a touch screen phone, most likely they will shit them self etc..go with something simple and stylish thats also upto date, so either the N95/N96 would be great and does everything you need, also has wifi etc..

Ive got a brand new N96, unlocked, never used...
$950
Ive got an iphone, im not really a big apple nerd fan boy or anything and i was a bit sceptical before getting it, but i reckon its pretty sweet!
You can get awesome apps, the battery life seems fine to me, its never crashed even once, im running the latest software hacked, which opens you up to a world of cool shit!
I have that VLC media player running, so I can watch any videos on it without converting etc.
And I dont care what anyone reckons, it is THE best phone net browser by not just a country mile but about 1,000,000 country miles.

Okay mate
DO NOT BUY ANY NEW NOKIAs ESPECIALLY N96
nokia has gone to shit at the moment.. N96 is actually a downgrade from a n95 8gb except its pretty
without a doubt get a new Sony ericson C905 8MP camera and tough as bricks very sterdy design.
Iphones are awesome dont listen to anyone other than those that have actually owned one there probly one of the most reliable phones around atm. the only small issue is battery life but hey we all have electricity at home yeah???
i cant stress enough tho dont get new nokias buy either a samsung or sony ericson..
feel free anyone to try and argue my points but this is what i deal with everyday.. (i work for vodafone)

Couldnt agree more, all the anti iphone people have never used one i bet, I did laugh at all the dweebs lining up the day they came out, but after having one for a few months now, they shit on anything else!
Battery life doesnt seem that bad to me, i play around with it a fair bit and it lasts a good 2-3 days between charges, and im pretty sure you can get to a powerpoint that often
