    I've been thinking about getting an IPhone, Is the Iphone worth the big price tag of not only the Iphone Itself but the entire monthly charge?

    To be honest the prices are very stupid with Apple... Look below...

    iPod Touch - 130GBP
    iPhone 3G - 300GBP

    Not much price difference.

    Which iPhone was you thinking off?

    Well I'm thinking of the IPhone, not the Itouch just because i want the phone part of it as well, I was looking mostly at the iphone 3GS i think it sells for 200 dollars with a new 2 year contract deal.

    The Apple iPhone failed in India because it's way to expensive. And there's practically no 3G coverage in India.

    iPhone 3G cost way mroe than 200 dollars. Why dont you get a mobile and get the iPod Touch? The iPod Touch has everything the same as the iPhone but no phone function. Thats all really abou the iPod Touch. I dont know if the prices will drop but the iPhone has less chance in price drop.

    If you think the iPhone might not be worth the money, then it definitely is not.

    It's worth it! If you're a music lover who also needs a good functional phone, buying an Iphone is an investment. I think it has lifetime warranty if I'm not mistaken. If you no longer want it, you can resell or trade it.

    Well, there is nothing in iPhone for which Apple takes that much money ! :p

    Its better to take a Nokia N95 with all the facilities rather than spending money on iPhone.

    My wife just got an iphone and it's pretty useful and fun. Not exactly sure if it's THAT much better than other phones though. It is nice to have the full music, video, internet, etc... all in one place though. But i've never used a BB or anything like that either so it's tough to compare.

    Worth what money? Because whatever would you initially pay for it should double within the first two month by buying applications and stuff...

    iPhone is very costly on the long run!

    Do you really need the Iphone..? Think of your purpose, not by just following your desire.

    If you jailbreak the phone then its all good. I would keep the money to be honest or get a iPod Touch.

    I prefer the iPhone personally over many of the others I tried. For me it has been able to do anything I needed it to, and it's also nice to have a highly graphical game to screw around with if the wife is ever in the dressing room at a store taking forever. :) If I was forced to I could definitely run my company from this phone.

    It is very much worth it if nothing but for bragging rights alone.

    Just occured to me ... if you have a MAC computer than an Iphone is probably the way to go as they've made it super easy to transfer everything... although, I think my wife has some special add-on yearly software (mobile me) to get everything to sync correctly.
