Hi all! Not sure if I can ask this here but I am considering getting an iPhone and was wondering what the advantage of the 4S over the 4 is. Anybody have any ideas or comments for me? Thanks, Jim P.S. Is there a dedicated iPhone list I should put this question to? Jim - Chat with me on

Hello Jim, Of course I am sure you know, that on the 4S you have Siri- the personal assistant. You can send texts with your voice, manipulate appointments in your calendar, place calls, and many more things. Siri in conjunction with voiceover have really changed the way I do things on a day

Hi, at this time, I honestly see no point in getting the iPhone 4 unless you are strapped for cash, and the phone you have now is about to give up the ghost. :). I say this because, if you can hold out to when the new iPhone is released, you can pick up the 4S at a cheaper price or, just get

Jim, hands down the 4S. the processing power is much better. if your on ATT and are in a city, you can get 4G data speeds. for example, my 4S is faster on ATT then on my home network. i live in DC. R, Pete Sent from my iPhone On Apr 4, 2012, at 9:52 AM, Jim Gatteys jgatt...@gmail.com

I certainly do. Yesterday, I walked into the apple store and grabbed a 4s, bought it and walked out just because I felt like it. Here are some of the advantages. First off it's speedier. The iPhone 4 with it's A4 processor just is not enough, ino, to hand IOS 5.0 and above. The 4s, is by far

Did you really mean $850? Why so much? There are no unlocked 4S phones, right? Jim On Apr 4, 2012, at 10:09 AM, Cody wrote: I certainly do. Yesterday, I walked into the apple store and grabbed a 4s, bought it and walked out just because I felt like it. Here are some of the advantages.

Incorrect. You can buy an unlocked iPhone 4S direct from Apple. It's GSM though, not CDMA, but nonetheless unlocked and with no contract. -- Buddy Brannan, KB5ELV - Erie, PA Phone: (814) 860-3194 or 888-75-BUDDY On Apr 4, 2012, at 11:16 AM, Jim Gatteys jgatt...@gmail.com wrote: Did you

well the 4s is an open network phone, or a world phone as they call it, so you can use it on vzw, ATT, or sprint. It retails for $649, then I got the $80 case, and the b.s. taxes and what not on top of that i did not get apple care like I did on my mac pro. On Apr 4, 2012, at 11:16 AM, Jim

so then you don't have a contract? I was checking with Sprint and they have good prices with a two year contract. Somebody told me you couldn't buy the phone without having a contract from somebody. Jim On Apr 4, 2012, at 10:23 AM, Cody wrote: well the 4s is an open network phone, or a

That is wrong, you can buy any iphone from the apple store, but you're not going to get the discounted price, which is why it costed me so much, but I think I have deserved it. For me, it was as simple as taking out my new phone and dialing *228 and boom my new iphone is activated. Easy as pie.
