Virgin means it came from the factory as a 1.1.1 device, and was NOT upgraded to 1.1.1 by a user.

Diff between the old and new? 1.1.1 has bug fixes, adds some menu options, support for TV-out, a new pop-up menu for music, and some other stuff. I posted a list of changes a few pages back I think, or you can easily find it on Google too.

Thanks man I appreciate your help!

I guess I will try and go for the 1.1.1 and then I can just unlock it myself if I follow the steps in the links provided. Some on craigslists are 1.1.1 unlocked already but they are asking $625+

ah found the 1.1.1 specs on page 3 of this thread. thanks.

Its funny how some ppl make ads for WTB 8 gb iphone $425 lol

+Kardboard+ 10-18-2007 03:09 PM

hahah yeah, cheapskates. Then again, I wouldn't be surprised to see prices near that on eBay. I'm getting tired of my iPhone already lol....the wait for proper software upgrades is killing me!

RS seems to look pretty good on the iPhone. I can post as normal.

+Kardboard+ 10-18-2007 05:11 PM

Yeah, but it takes up a lot of memory and crashes everything else that's running...hahah I open up RS and the iPod app dies, the email app dies, and everything else...hahah

Sometimes RS takes Safari with it too. Silly iPhone, it really needs that 1.1.1 update. -_-

I don't think an update to 1.1.1 does anything to that

+Kardboard+ 10-18-2007 05:26 PM

It supposedly fixes quite a few bugs, and I was hoping the random quitting of applications would've been fixed by better memory management behind-the-scenes. -_-

Ah well, I want my damned 1.1.1 update on my 1.0.2..haha

eBay has a few iphones that are priced good but most of them try and nail you with $60 shipping charges making it not worth your while. I am prob gonna pick up a 1.1.1 off a RS member this weekend. im excited lol

Just do what I told Intelude to do. You'll save on time and gas unless you're heading down to Seattle to do more shopping.

Yea I'm having trouble having Apple ship to Point Roberts. I'm going to try again. If all else fails I'll have to end up driving down there.

What's wrong?

My order arrived this afternoon around 12:30pm after the 2 day shipping option. TSB Shipping emailed me telling me that it arrived. Heading down there to pick it up tomorrow morning.

I got this. Maybe I should try another credit card company other than RBC to add the TSB address.

The Apple Store sells and ships products only within the continental
United States, Alaska, and Hawaii. No shipments can be made to APO or
FPO addresses, United States territories, or addresses outside the
United States. You may not export any products purchased at the Apple
Store."

Exportation applies to customers in other countries attempting to order
through the U.S. store. This includes those customers who provide a
freight forwarding agent's address as their shipping address

Ch28 10-19-2007 01:49 PM

wtf

You're sure you told your credit card company to add an alternate address onto your card for US purchases right?

1574 Gulf Road
Point Roberts, WA 98281
Phone: 360-945-0740

Once that address is added on as an alternate address all you have to do is use that as your billing and shipping address.

I just picked up my iPhone from TSB about 1.5 hours ago. Long ass lineup into Point Roberts :o

bcedhk 10-19-2007 02:50 PM

Damn, ok lets try this again. I just added that address to an alternate credit card. Hope it works now.

Got charged $50 for taxes which brings the total after tax to about $470 which is probably the cheapest without trying to smuggle the phone in.

You can try smuggling it in but you better make sure you're bringing other stuff back because they'll search you if you're gone for 10-20 minutes and have nothing to claim haha

Peturbo 10-19-2007 04:25 PM

I got a problem with my Iphone, just installed bunch of stuff for iphone but installed to many. the home menu is now filled and some arent even showing cause there aren't any spaces left. Now i cant uninstall the ones i want to cause the "installer" icon is one of the ones that isnt showing up. what should i do?

+Kardboard+ 10-19-2007 04:42 PM

What firmware are you running? If it's 1.1.1 you can try this:

Peturbo 10-19-2007 04:47 PM

no im running on the older firmware

+Kardboard+ 10-19-2007 05:00 PM

Huh, that could be an issue, especially if you didn't install any of those alternate launchers (Dock, SummerBoard, etc.). Did you? What icons do you see?

Ch28 10-19-2007 05:04 PM
