good bye for now iphone - iPhone 3G

jjvaldez · 08-03-2007, 06:28 AM

on iday i waited for 8 hrs in line to get an iphone, i got it, activated it and ignored my girlfriend for 3 whole days.....

i got the dlo leather case for it and i got the iskin ervo [black] too
now it is time for me to let it go....

i got a new job, working landscaping for the summer, this means that i cannot take my iphone there or i will ef-it-up. so i am forced to take out the sim card and use my old blackberry that i do not mine getting hurt.

i will be limited to seeing my iphone form only 5pm till i fall asleep, and that is not enough time to spend with it...
i will barely see my iphone until school starts in the fall...

sad

i was wondering if there are any other people that are experiencing the same iphone time restrictions like me??

nope, we're cooler then you.

yea.. that might be the case but i'll get to play with it in the fall.. it is not that i wana play with it , i think that the part that hurts the most is that i cannot even carry it with me, it just sits at home all day....

look man.. why are you baby-ing the iphone? you look like a rugged guy and you're worried about effing it up? cmon man!!! grow some huevos man!!!!! just put it in your pocket and bring it with you... who cares if it gets some dings, its bound to happen... every cell phone I had always looks like crap after 2 years of use... its just the way it is

yea your right i am pretty rugged, i i think that i might take it one i get the iskin revo in the mail to make sure that i have some protection on it.. the only thing that worries me is that i might crack the screen ... since i might bump in to weed wackers or lawn mowers and such.. but i might give it a try one the revo comes in...

hmmm i dunno bout u but for my previous fones which all cost me 300$ up, i dun want ANY scratches period on the phone, i want to be able to sell it b4 i get a new phone like i did to get the iphone with no problems at all with buyers bringin down price for wear and tear. I was able to sell my cingular 8525 for 400$ flat to make up iphone price because my phone was in almost brand new condition. dropping $650 with tax for a fone is a whole new story and i can see EXACTLY why he wants it no where near the work hes doin. im sure the case will prevent alot of things but in work like that you just cant take the chances. Im sure a couple hours without iphone will be fine for you valdez, its not like your taking a trip to china and going iphone less for a month.

I am in a similar situation in that I don't get to use the iPhone much. I'm in the UK for an extended visit and I don't want to pay for roaming. So the SIM is out of the phone to prevent accidental roaming plus I leave the phone at the hotel and use a cheap local phone with a local SIM. I only get to play with it in the evening sometimes using WiFi. Sad, isn't it?
