[macvoiceover] Re: Iphone: entering numbers while on a call

So, you were able to just remove your old sim card and place it in your
iPhone?  They lied to us, but I'm not surprised! (smile)
So David, why do you think we couldn't activate our iPhone at home?  Do
you think it is because we were using the /Windows version of iTunes?
We followed the instructions, but nothing happened except that my
friend's old phone became useless.

actually, I used the sim card from my old pantek for my IPhone.  they  
just had to change the number that the at&t system was expecting.

with your iPhone, this is according to AT&T as well as Apple.  When my  
friend tried unsuccessfully to activate her phone at home, it  
immediately deactivated her old phone, just rendering her without a  
phone until she was able to go into the AT&T store.  She can, however,  
use the sim card from her iPhone in her old phone, it works fine.

I do plan on buying an IPhone 3GS in the near future in spite of a  
couple of problems.  The benefits of this device more then out ways  
the negatives.  However, it is important to know the negatives as then  
you won't be surprised when they happen and you can factor that into  
the risk you are taking.  I've owned my share of cell phones over the  
years and I think that the IPhone will probably be the one of my best  
phones ever.  Besides, it is an historical event and I want to be a  
part of history in the making.  Since I already have a GSM phone, it  
will be easy to switch over to the 3GS because all I have to do is  
take out the sim card from the one and transfer it to the other.  I  
also have an CDMA phone that I use for data since it operates on a  
different network from rogers and so use that one for internet surfing  
as it is unlimited.  I will be using  the IPhone interchangeably with  
my nokia E71.  Sim cards are easy to move from one phone to another.   
I'm going to put in an order for the 3GS soon.  I know that the next  
generation IPhone will build on this one but it is important to  
support Apple in this first generation so that they see that there is  
a demand for this product.
Sorry if people on this list took my critiques as a a reason for not  
buying the phone.  Probably the drawback that you can't change is that  
you can't change the battery.  I wonder what the phone will cost in  
Canadian dollars from my local retaler.  I suppose that the size of  
memory isn't that important but the concept of inclusion.

You can if you're in the phone app. Press home, choose another app,  
while the call is on. Apparently to the very top of the screen there's  
a "return to call" bar. I couldn't check this out myself, as my iPhone  
won't be delivered until monday, but my son tells me that's how his  
iPhone works.

But can you add appointments on a calendar while talking to some one  
on the same IPhone?
I thought that the IPhone 3GS isn't capable of running more then one  
app at a time.

No: they expect you to use the iPhone with it's headset That's all.  
Because then you have access to the phone's full functionality, e.g.  
adding an appointment to the calendar, then coming back to the phone  
app etc.

So I guess Apple isn't perfect after all.  They do have their hardware  
flaws
as well as software problems.  It's the only thing about mac users that
drives me nuts is that they claim that their company is without flaws

that only Microsoft has problems.  Hurray!  Thank you Apple for  
joining the
real world of digital!

supposed to enter touch tones while on a call? I can't seem to find the
keypad text area or number while on a call."
