so i went back to the store to return the otterbox i bought for my iphone 5, and asked to try another case, that maybe the one i bought was a freak defect. every otterbox commuter they had did not fit the iphone 5, however the defender fit, although i didnt want that one cuz it was too big.

weird thing i noticed.. on the outside of the defender box it says "for iphone 5". for the commuter it says "for new iphone".

Unless you want to pay USD$515 for a 4" Samsung phone. Not too much of a difference compare with the $300 Galaxy Adavance S, in terms of spec wise imo

iphone 4 and 5 size are great for most people. To be honest I have short fingers, anything above 4 is useless with one hand. That's why Note 2 is not a phone for most people. I text, I game, I remote control, I watch video with my phone more than I talk on the phone, so yeah...iphone is a phone for people use it as a phone not really a PDA or entertainment device.

do you guys find that something is loose near the top of the iphone5?
if you have it flipped face down and tap lightly near the top of the phone, do you guys hear something loose inside? or is it just my iphone

Still pissed there's no stock on the Lightning to 30 pin adapters. I don't mind paying $30 considering the hassle it'll save me - I just want to be able to buy one.

For now I use a Bluetooth to 1/8" AUX adapter and stream BT audio to my stereo in my car. For handsfree I'm also connected to my factory stereo through BT and when I get a call the phone switches between the two BT connections. While it works, I really miss being able to browse playlists with my steering wheel instead of having to actually use the phone to select music.

The pricing on the adapter is still ridiculous, how anyone that buys one and doesn't feel like they are being absolutely ripped off is beyond me.

If I have a locked iPhone on Rogers what are my options if I wanted to use a phone in the US? I'll be there for a week and would really like to be able to use my phone.

You can roam and pay Rogers roaming charges. If you don't want to do that, you can bring a unlock phone you have in your drawer and get a prepay SIM card in the states. If you really want to use the iPhone than just roam or buy an unlocked one online.

I just unlocked my old 3GS through fido. They just do it over the air, and when you connect the phone to itunes, it detects that the IMEI's been unlocked for any carrier. $50, call in and ask for unlock.

If you still owe money on the device though, you have to pay it out first.

I use my 3GS with T-Mobiles $3 unl talk text data (200mb 4g, then edge), and its pretty dope. All my VOIP apps work, Google Maps, and I still get some imessages on it lol.
