Happy or Not Happy With Your iPhone 3GS?

[Swedd523]

I got to the At&t store around 8 and there was a short line of about 5 people by then, I got pushed to the front though because of my preorder. Got my info moved to the 3G S, got my girlfriend hooked up on the 3G. Out the door in 15 minutes.


Was cool though because Brendan Haywood (NBA player) was sitting next to me getting his 3G S

Hey folks. I'm new here. My iPhone 3GS is on the FedEx truck right now, and should be here soon. I'm porting from Verizon.

Question - How long does the phone take to charge and activate? And should I go ahead and apply the Invisible Shield before I plug it in? I'm paranoid about scratches, but I know I'll want to play with it. Still, the Invisible Shield is supposed to take 12-24 hours to fully set.

Thanks in advance!

Loving my iphone...there were approximately 5 people in line when my fiance' and I arrived at 6:15. About ten more arrived prior to 7:00am. The whole process took about 15 minutes once we were in the store.

Bye, Bye Sprint!!

Mine was delivery 5 minutes ago! I tore into the box and soiled my pants. After a change of underwear, I opened the box and held it in my hand. First impression was...WOW! There isnt much excitment that I usually feel for new mobiles that I get since this one is identical to my 3G.

And I cant get past the activation screen cause I dont have ATT! Where is my Jailbreak!


I am sure it will be awesome once I play with it and get it past the activation screen! I got the white model and I love it more than my black 3G. White looks sexier!

I just got mine at 9:20 Central, And I absolutely LOVE it!! I upgraded from my first gen, so it's quite a big step up for me! I just wish my case was here already!

Speaking of Invisible Shield...

Does it have that same problem with getting a CRAP load of dust stuck to the edges? I had mine on for a whopping 2 days before I couldnt stand the fuzz and took it off! 30 bucks wasted.

That was the problem i had with it on my blackberry... I got a free one back then though, as a friend of mine worked for the firm that brought the company public. I wouldn't get one for the 3GS seeing as how it comes with the coating on the screen... on the back, I'll have a leather cover for it.

I am not sure if I would have spent anything above 400$ to get the phone but I love the new camera and the speed on the 3gs is definitely a lot better. The lag time when switching between things like apps and the phone and stuff is a lot less...I will update again once I play with it some more.

I am currently selling mine. I will be happy if I get $350 for it, but no bites on Ebay yet (it is still locked, since I don't have access to an Apple PC).

I would say to put it on first. My issue is that I become too lazy and end up using it for a while without a shield. I'm lucky because I never drop or scratch it. Others aren't so lucky and/or careful.

Thanks for the quick responses. It was too enticing not to set up and play with. I'll set up the Shield overnight in a few days.
