Multi-Colored 3G iPhones

[jackz5o]

I found this on Digg and I thought the multi-colored iPhones were pretty cool.

Don't know if this is true or not.

You can actually do this with colorware.

You can actually do this with colorware.

Except you won't lose your warranty and it doesn't cost an additional $200+

[TangoTango]

Interesting.

I like the Blue and Green, not so much the Yellow and Pink.

[Luckykelleyk]

colorware hasn't started offering colorization for 3g yet. I think its stupid if they only make the 8gig in multicolor. Those colors don't look very apple-like IMO. But who knows??

[iigreatoneii]

The blue color isn't bad. I still wouldn't ditch my White for it though. If they did come out with colors, I'd prefer the blue to be baby blue.

[Luckykelleyk]

I like the green :2cool: . However, if I was getting one, I would probably still get white.

[dturner]

Doesn't make sense that colors would only be offered in the 8 gig. Seems like there would be more demand in the 16 gig. But hey, what do I know.:smile:

[Jjames]

May be Dell or Sony will come out with a look alike iPhone in those color. I still prefer Black or White Apple anytime.

[Kalyndo]

The blue one looks cool. Still, I love my black 16gig iPhone.:smile:

[jbarrack]

They are ok. But I still think I like the white one the best. White is such a clean color. I would be worried about the colors showing all the smudges like the black one.

[kisstine]

I think the colors are 'cute'; I can see where there'd be a market for them... but I prefer my white one.

[kevlar08]

id want the blue, don't they change the home button too?

[Luckykelleyk]

I HIGHLY doubt it, but you know, its all speculation.

they already have a "cute" color; it's called white!

[coasts]

i think Apple would go with something other than primary colors. nothing too special here...

[Youngbinks]

I also don't see these as being very Apple. If they do release more colors I foresee them being the RED (like they have with iPods now) in addition to a few more colors that are also similar to the current iPods. Certainly nothing this outlandish, though I do like the green.

the original ipod mini's came in five colors including pink gold and green, so this is something apple has done before

"pink, gold and green" is very different than "red, yellow and orange". the images on that site look like the old school markers that i wasnt allowed to play with as a child. i dont want my cutting edge technology looking like it was designed by Tyco.

im not saying ill ever get any of these colors, im happy with my black. but im jus saying apple has done multiple colors before so it wouldn't be to out of the question for them to do it again at some point

Either way, I like white the best.

[Ramesh]

Once you turn off location services, and have a charger available just in case - then you'll love it. Since you're in NY 3G shouldn't be a problem, and it's freakin' quick compared to EDGE. I HATE EDGE now. Lemme know if you have any specific questions, but overall, I'd recommend it.

[geordisjd]

Ah, white!

Boy do I ever hear you. I get on this forum and read how much everyone is enjoying the 3G despite a few problems and the want becomes very strong.

Yep, Im feeling it too. There is no way I can upgrade though, so I have to try to think about other things. haha

oy. always gotta be men vs. women thing, eh?

Here's my actual opinion, all jokes aside -

I prefer the 3G by quite a large margin. To ME 3G is worth it. The potential of GPS is icing on the cake. I did enjoy the V1, but there was no question as to whether or not I'd upgrade for the "superior" 3G.

I would agree more if I didn't already have a very nice garmin gps. Plus, I have a badass colorwared 16 gig v1. so HA. hehe.

Boys stink.

Hold up guys, I'm going to go fix some popcorn and get comfortable for this one.:smile:

Whatever, "dudette". I also have a very nice Garmin, and agree that the GPS of phone is no where near the same. That's why I said "potential" is icing on the cake. I would have upgraded just for 3G.

Girls complain too much. :laugh2:

Don't be mad that for $200 you painted a phone instead of buying a new one. Let it go.... ;)

[Luckykelleyk]

I am not saying mine is better. I just think its funny how some people (usually men) always think that what they currently have is "The best". He will quickly betray his 3g iphone when v3 comes out. He will throw it away like trash. :2cool:

Whoa whoa, I'm all jokes here, are you seriously have a debate that "men" always think that what they have is the best? If you're serious, I'd be happy to have that debate, though that would probably be better suited for chat, no in this thread.

aaaaaaand, you're right. I'll toss my v2 for v3 if the price is right. I made $300 by upgrading 2 phones, one from 8 to 16, and one from 8 to 8. So how could I not upgrade?

I am an electronics junkie, I'll admit. But this is the first phone that prevents me from looking around for other phones.

I bought the AEBS and a few days later wished I had got the Time Capsule. But I do have an external HD and it works great with my MBP. I only backup once a week and seems to be working fine.
The Time Capsule does hourly,daily, and I think weekly backups and deletes the oldest ones when the disk is full. But even if you got the 500mb, that is a lot of backup.

[Luckykelleyk]

Youre right. Upgrading does make sense, and I would have definitely made a profit if I had sold my phone. Unfortunately, I have my husband and father that would send me to gadget rehab, and would not listen to my logical reason for getting yet ANOTHER new phone not even 5 months after I got my first iphone. (After buying and selling MANY MANY other phones every 3 months)

not to hijack the thread (or step into the middle of the fakest fight i've seen since depthnerd left), but i got it with intentions of transferring my music library from an external HD to a wireless, so that i can have constant access to it. hope it works

DT...i got the wireless access set up easy enough. now i'm looking to see how to transfer music and movies from my external to my Time Capsule. shouldnt be tough, but i guess it should take forever.

Apple products are great aren't they? No configuration BS, truly plug and play. As for the transfer, it should go smooth but yes it will take some time. Especially the movies part.

[Youngbinks]

Along the lines of a Time Capsule, I just got an AirPort Extreme and it is AMAZING. Setup took less than 5 minutes and I plugged my 500 GB external into it so now I can access it remotely from anywhere. I'm pretty dang excited.

You have the same setup I do. I have an external HD and it works seamlessly with the AirPort. As far as setup, I basically just plugged the thing in and it recognized my 2 MBP's and both iphones instantly. All I can say coming from windows is unbelievable.
Heck, I remember just setting up a printer with windows was sometimes a half day job.

[Ramesh]

James - use a wire for the initial transfer. MUCH faster than wifi...
