So iphones are in hand and working well on TMobile. We'll see how battery life is, they're used after all.
In honor of having such a versatile little device, I've setup a Moblog on flickr where I'll post random cameraphone pictures. Friend me! I'm lonely! ;-)

Hoping to spur myself into shooting more, as I'm a lazy bastard when it comes to getting out my big camera even though I carry it pretty much every day.
Here's to hopin'!

i'm curious about whether you had to add some sort of data/email/internet plan to your TMobile account to be able to use apps like this moblog. i've been considering a smart phone (i'm on verizon), but last night when I did the math on the phone plus the increase in my monthly bill, with what it would cost over a year, i could buy a laptop - which i might want more.

Yup, you do need some data plan. The $25/mo unlimited plan is cheaper than my old blackberry enterprise plan, so I'm actually saving money. hah!

Apparently there's a bit of a hack on tmobile where you can sign up for "T-Zones" at $5.99/mo and run some proxy on your phone where you get full internet at only a slightly slower speed than a full data plan. If you want a smart phone on the cheap, it's probably the best (only?) way to go.
