Last night I found out that I can't set a home screen background because I have a 3G. Really? I got my phone last April, and I have to upgrade in order have a damn wallpaper on the home screen because the hardware "can't handle it"? Apple is getting lamer all the time.
EDIT: Yeah, I know I can jailbreak it and have all of the features that Apple should have had from day 1. But my gripe isn't that the hardware CAN'T do it, it's that Apple WON'T allow it. |

Explain the $200 trade in. I know nothing about it, but would be interested.

I've since called RS and put myself on the list. Great deal, assuming you don't mind potentially waiting a few weeks. I'm 51st on the list. |

I'm 51st at my local store.
So as long as they get at least 51 phones for their 1st shipment, my wait shouldn't be that long. If ATT was willing to take trades, I could have one on the 29th. But I'm in no rush. I'll wait months if it means upgrading for free. And FYI - make sure you call several stores. The first I called said they would give me up to $150 for my 3Gs without asking anything about the phone. Radio Shack's website, and the other stores I called actually asked me a handful of questions then told me I'd get $200. |

Anyone know how to downgrade OS 4 back to 3.1.3? Doomy was going to sell me his but when he was clearing data, it automatically downloaded the OS4.

Here's instructions for 3G: http://www.ihackintosh.com/2010/04/d...-1-3-or-lower/ There's links for 3GS on that page too, if that's what you have.

Sure wish they would release info on what they are going to do with Ipod Touch 4G.

They won't until September. Maaaaaybe late August. But September has been their iPod cycle month. They flush inventory with the free iPod with Mac promotion and then introduce the next generation.

I know they put it out to purchase in September but I just want to know if they will be putting iphone 4 tech in it or if it will just be the same crap they did last year.

I want the first four AND the microphone. But, I want the iphone camera NOT the ipod Nano camera that has been rumored.

I highly doubt a microphone is there because it would then serve as a phone for VOIP calls and I just don't think they want that until the cell market is saturated. Though, I would argue that VOIP is the future and services like Clear will be in good position to take advantage of iPod Touch like devices making calls - and video calls at that.
