Whoa! I live in Broomfield and I have an iPhone. I'm not a flasher though. I keep it in my pocket until needed. Go to the Flatirons Mall or come down to Boulder, you'll see plenty.

Just curious, why have an iPhone with a data plan if you only use it when needed?
 
Most iPhone owners I know go with the iPhone because it has lots of apps, unlimited data, many things to do and play with. If you only use a phone when needed, there are cheaper phones and plans.

Isn't ANYTHING only used when needed? Do you spend 100% of your time staring at your iPhone screen using data?
 
this is why i'm looking to buy another phone soon. all the peons have one and i don't feel superior anymore

Same here. It's a pity that the iPhone is no longer a symbol of an "elitist" society...looks like I'll have to hack the iPad and configure it to use that as my next cell :D :p
 
There are a LOT of people at my work that have iPhones. They are definitely popular. I know some of them are proud of their 3GS's but I will trump them with the new one coming this year :mad:. Horray for upgrade eligibility!

They can still buy the new one. A lot of people sell their iPhones when the new one comes out so that they can afford the new one even if they don't have upgrade eligibility.

yep. you end up extending your contract and paying probably anywhere from nothing to $100-200 for the new phone, but it's what I did for 2 years
 
The worst is the people who check / use their phones DURING the movie...

PROTIP:
Everyone behind you can see your bright ass screen.

Sometimes I wish I had a laser pointer so I could let them know how much I hate them.
 
so you get your social fix off a phone? thats clever of you..
:rolleyes:

Seriously , this is like the 20th thread about

"HEY guyz everyone has an iPhone nao and I don't feel superior anymore"

It's pretty sad that people in this world value themselves based on what they own / what people think about them

It's usually those that have very little/ have very little self esteem that think this way :apple:

Why the hell would I use my phone when I DIDN'T need it? I mean, you may get something out of being only your phone 24/7, I just see it as a useful phone/device; I'm not married to it.
 
I love my 3gs my wife loves her 3g, abd I know once someone uses this phone they dont go back. I tried to switch carriers last week and a HTC pro 2, and it really sucks, you cant compared to an iphone.

I sold my original iPhone and got a Nokia 5800 instead, because the speakers were so poor on the original iPhone. I'm going to get an iPhone 4G (or whatever it is) though :D
