iPhone owners do everything but talk

ha! I've got 2,553 roll over minutes; 4,979 nights & weekends; 449 anytime minutes still left. nice to work the night shift! :)

Last month I used 19 mins of talk time, 3000 txts (thanks twitter), and I have somewhere around 3,000+ in rollover! Talk about never using the "phone" on the iPhone...

Can't agree enough about the speakers. I have set of buds for music and keep the iPhone ones for calls only. My music ones are v-moda's and it's to weird talking when you own voice is being filtered out, so I kept the whites for calls.

Apple should fix the mic and speaker via firmware if they can.

Yeah, I got my iPhone in October with the 500 anytime, 5000 nights/weekends plan and I have over 1400 rollover minutes right now.

Wow, I guess one of the few ones who actually use the phone part more than anything, eh?

I use about 6,000-7,000 minutes a month for my business and personal calls. The new $99 unlimited plan is a godsend, because I would almost always go over every month.

And for those who have said that the iPhone doesn't amaze as a phone -- you simply haven't had the pleasure of using visual voicemail. Before I leave the office at the end of the day, I can flick my screen and see who I still haven't called back. Oh, and let's not forget the incredible contact management that is unmatched on another smartphone. The fact that it syncs perfectly to Address Book and Bento? Sigh...hell, I appreciate the Phone app more than anything. I think I've become a better communicator thanks to the Phone app.

Different strokes for different folks.

what apple should do instead is create a device, like the iPod touch, that connects to the internet from a satellite using edge or 3G, and exclude phone service. i think that would be an excellent idea for people who aren't really phone fanatics, but are extreme internet fanatics, like me. it would also save a lot of our money. if laptops can have similar service by using broadband wireless cards, then bring something similar to the iPod touch!

I would buy an iPhone in a heartbeat if they offered a plan similar to T-Mobile's Sidekick plan - unlimited data for a flat monthly rate, pay per minute for voice calls on top of that.

I barely even use my current (prepaid) cell phone for voice calls, though I'll generally make a few a month; I do far more texting and IMing than I do talking.

Totally agree. i have had my phone for only 4 months and have piled up 2800 roll over minutes (that is with an error on AT&T's part that they accidentally gave us a free month of 1400 roll over minutes ;)

I can agree, too.

The wife and myself have 1500 minutes and the biggest text package and after 8 months we have 4600 roll over minutes!!

Love it though. Wish I could sublease the minutes! There's a business venture, figure out a way i can sell my rollover minutes.

Damn! This thing makes phone calls, too?! Amazing!

I just tried making a call, and, sher nuf, it works!

Now I REALLY love my iPhone. SWEET!
