Also, did anyone get Cro-Mag racer and/or Crash Bandicoot
Wondering which racing game to plonk my money on

Offtopic again, Arya, IIRC, you weren't a big fan of the iPhone last time I was arnd here on these forums, what happened in the interim

Both games are quite good for a phone.3D graphics are commendable.Get CBNC,cro-mag is not worth that money.
Get teleport too.You can control your Mac or PC from anywhere in the world and get a full screen preview of you Mac or PC and with full control.You can launch apps,put your computer on download and do all kinda stuff you'd ever want to do when you are away from it.
Supermonkey Ball is also a must!

Just so you know, Apple will replace either the phone or the defective part if a crack develops within the first year of purchase. So he doesn’t need the black model just to hide the cracks.

The chrome Apple logo had 2 scratches when I got it.Actually,I didn't buy it.My Dad bought it without seeing and trying it properly.Can I get the back replaced or should I carry on with it as it is?Plastic back is a scratch magnet and is bound to get scratched over time as I don't prefer using a case and spoil the awesome looks of the iPhone.But I put the case on before placing it on any dusty hard surfaces like my comp table
I must say the aluminium back is much better than plastic one.It's scratch resistant and looks better.

BTW I own a 16GB White iPhone 3G.

Uh… you must have me confused with someone else. I, not a fan of the iPhone!?

I was against buying it unofficially from the U.S.A. due to the warranty thing but Milind bought one in front of me and I just couldn’t resist after that. And I’m so glad I bought it.

I am trying out various free apps from iTunes store right now.

Labyrinth LE and Audi A4 are my favorites till date.

My 8yrs old daughter loves games like iDoodle 2 and Bubbles.

Also Cannonfire is a much loved game (I used to play it in the Win95 days).

I am thinking of buying some games too. Any suggestions?

[SunnyChahal]

Crash Bandicot Nitro Cart,Cro-Mag rally,Supermonkey Ball,Poker,Motoracer.

[goobimama]

From what I hear, Billy Frontier is supposed to be a really neat game.

Today I have tried one paid app - Koi Pond

Its simulates a real pond... with fish. When u touch the water, ripples appear abd the fish goes away from your fingure. A real visual treat

[krazzy]

^^ Is that all that the app does? How much does it cost?

[Tanmay Satpathy]

Its 0.99$

This app simply gives a demo of the power of graphics, and all the sensors built into the iPhone.

[goobimama]

Ah. Was wondering whether to get Koi Pond. Now I'll get it!

[Tanmay Satpathy]

I have also tried MagicPad. A 3.99$ application which is basically a notepad with copy-cut-paste abilities. It also allow font change, size change and attribute change of the text (rich text editing).

[goobimama]

^^ But it is restricted within itself. I'm waiting for a systemwide copy paste system. I pray that it makes it in the 2.1 update.

[cooldudie3]

Hey guys! I don't have an iPhone 3G but I have iPod touch. Try out the app Aurora Feint. It is totally awesome, how they make a puzzle game so interesting. And it's free.

[gauravsuneja]

can anybody buy me iphone from usa .i am willing to shell 15k inr for that

did u try unlocking and jailbreaking it .can u tell what is the firmware version in new iphone 3g

wouldn't it had been nicer if we had to umm to transfer iphone themes or applications what we have downloaded from internet via bluetooth instead of data cable?

[krinish]

is jailbreak avaialable on 3g yet?

[goobimama]

No talk of jailbreaking. Already miserabled someone for it.

Btw, I'm using Ambiance these days. I love the rain sound, really soothing! Although from what I hear aSleep is supposed to be better.

Stop acting desperate dude. iPhone 3G without contract is available for 26k INR in US. If you are talking about first-gen iPhone, then its not available for sale there.

My advice to you: Go and check the local market. You might get good offers for a used/new first-gen iPhone. Thats what I did

[MasterMinds]

^ can v get 1st gen iphone in delhi???

[Pat]

^^ You should. Why not go and check it out for yourself ?

So you finally bought it? For how much?

[Pat]

Got it for 16k from a guy on TE forum. Its used, but the condition is pretty cool. Still dont have the phone in hand. I am in Germany, will be getting it next week

[aryayush]

Wow, that’s a steal! I would never sell mine for just that much.

Yea, but its an 8 GB iPhone and not 16 GB like yours. But its a good deal nevertheless

[the.kaushik]

nice thread.. am not able to open the images... using firefox.. any problem with TD site

[gauravsuneja]

the best deal i went to gaffar wud have been though i didn't buy it he was selling old not sold 1st hand iphone at 25650 rs and the one which was used which had scratches and dents even was sold for 16500 and other one with only scratches was for 18500inr

[Tanmay Satpathy]

Today I have tried another two free app...

FaceBook
Wikipanion

Both are really useful.

I really love the MagicPad app. At least it gives us some freedom from typing out repeated words. It also adds font/attribute/size change of the text. You can also send the notes to any email id directly from the application itself.

I have noticed that safari sometimes crashes without any apparent reason. Also have got a white screen... was forced to restart the phone.

[aryayush]

Safari crashes are indeed vexing. I expect Apple to get it right after a few tries, just like they did on Mac OS X.

I have heard quite a lot about these crashes but never really experienced one.So lucky so far

[goobimama]

Now they aren't as frequent as they were back in 1.1.4 (and earlier I suppose). The 2.0.2 Safari is really stable IMO.

[SunnyChahal]

@all iPhone fellas,do try motoracer,it's awesome!

[Tanmay Satpathy]

I have tried Aurora Feint... awesome game. One of the nicest puzzle game i have ever played.

Experienced the crashes afterupgrading to 2.0.2.

May be an coincidence
