I have a Apple iphone model MA712LL but using the phone I can't see the list of my contacts name saved in the SIM directory. So guide me how I can see or copy the contacts from the SIM card.

So, there is no easy way to determine if it will be one message or more. I have to admit this is a very annoying issue.

Wes, 28 Jun 2008First, Apple claims that they are selling the Iphone for $199 but if you do a simple calculati... more1. Any 3G service plan will cost the same with the same features.
2. Neither AT&T will support or insure a phone they do not sell.
3. If you buy an unlocked phone (which I'm not saying is a bad thing) you will pay much more up-front for your purchase. Then, if you add the features, it will cost the same per month.

So, although the 3G iPhone is less up-front but costs more in the end, it does not cost any more than another $199 phone with the same service. If you purchase a phone not supported by AT&T or T-Mobile they will not insure and/or support it. Functions may or may not work. You are on your own with this.

E.g. The iPhone is sold by T-Mobile in Germany. However T-Mobile USA will not support it. It's the same with most carriers regardless of the phone. I.e., A T-Mobile UK N95 8G is not supported by T-Mobile in Germany or the USA.

So, try this: Since the iPhone is a US phone (essentially) - tell us viewers here at GSM Arena the make and model of the mobile phone(s)—which have video conferencing capabilities—are sold by either T-Mobile or AT&T wireless in the US?

I'll help you out:

Price, 28 Jun 2008Mac products are over priced? Are you blind? What are you comparing them too—something built b... moreFirst, Apple claims that they are selling the Iphone for $199 but if you do a simple calculation you will notice that you are paying much more. Here is how: first you have to pay $36 dollars activation fee .Then your monthly data subscription for the Iphone is 10 dollars more than what you pay if you have another phone with the same carrier so with 24 months contract with att that’s 240 dollars extra which means that you are technically paying $476 + 2 years contract just to get an Iphone. Come on people do not let apple fools you.
Second, I don't know why I should buy a macbook for $1300 if I can buy a PC with butter specifications for half the price. PC doesn’t require maintenance like people think I use my PC without antivirus software and I don't have any problems, why? because I browse the internet responsibly I don't go to xxx websites which is full of viruses and on the hand you can get a free antivirus software just to be on the safe side like AVG ANTIVIRUS so basically you are not spending an extra money on a PC it is just what apple is trying to advertise that PC is full of viruses so they can sell their over priced products.

Wes, 28 Jun 2008Well unfortunatly I think that you are the blind person. Apple product are overpriced. i will ... moreFurthermore, it's quite interesting you have used the argument of price and not quality, service, or customer satisfaction. I maintain, in the end, Apple products, including the iPhone, are not overpriced.

Apple, I would imagine, has priced their products as to what the market would bear. And, from what I've seen lately, they are on the rise—unlike Windows OS (which includes Windows Mobile and the havoc it reeks in phones).

So, don't get one, and spend half your life with tech support, calling your friends for help, or looking online for help solving your PC issue.

That's what I thought!

Your fallacy is to compare dissimilar products. Try comparing Sony, Toshiba, Fujitsu with the same specs as an Apple.

Have you seen the price of a Sony Vaio and XPERIA? They are 3,200 and 1,100—respectively!

Get Mac stuff! The peaceful experience alone is worth any extra cost. They are totally stable; and have few adverse technical or maintenance issues. You'll pay more with a PC and Windows Mobile Phones because you'll need a billion dollars worth of anti virus and spyware, constant maintenance, and therapy.
