I don't understand how some people can walk in and pick them up.

I've been waiting for my "rain checked" one since release date.

I'm getting pissed off.

I think it's just a matter of getting lucky. stores are getting them in dribs and drabs. it was the same with the ipad. I bought a 16gb wifi only model the day after release day and it was the last one of any type in stock at david jones (and just about any other store in the area) then about 2 weeks later I wanted a 32gb 3g model and had to ring about 20 stores and none had any of any type. I then walked into a JB hifi (to buy something else) and had already called them and been told no stock only to see a bloke standing there holding a 32gb 3g model joking with another store assistant about how long it would take to sell now that he'd bought it out of the store room and could he get any mark up on it... I bought it on the spot. ;)

I don't think you'll be waiting long.

Yeah, thats fair enough.

I should have signed up at Optus and not All phones, I presume optus would get them first.

I'm still waiting on mine.

They gave everyone an extra month for the wait, but what if we go over a month without the phone?

I wonder.

what? :S

He's probably had his iphone screen replace a few times and saying that its probably going to happen again.

This friday will be a month with no iphone.

What does that mean from optus? They gave me a free month, not really free without the phone o.O

I'll go ask them when I get the chance.

Anyone here rainchecked an iphone and still hasn't got it or got it recently?

I got my rain checked phone from Optus a week ago, but I didn't order it for a week after they where originally released also.

So far, I like it more than my 3GS (the wife now has that one) it has a better signal reception than the 3GS, I can actually answer the phone inside my house and shed now, without it dropping out. The camera is better, and the screen is also much clearer than the old one.

I was on the waiting list with 3 a week before the release date, got a text to say come in on Friday, signed up and they said it should arrive in the next week or two but I got a text saying its already been sent so I'm expecting it this week. Just getting a black 16gb :blush:

hey guys yeah i got the Iphone 4... on the $49 cap (+ $10 handset fee) through 3 mobiles....

however i did not upgrade from a previous Iphone.. this is my first Iphone.. i have had a lot of experiences with my friends Iphone's and i am quite happy with the 4..

no problems thus far.... i never tested the reception out i just straight out got a case with it.. so ive not had any reception problems so far...

surprisingly for a mere 5megapixel camera.. i LOVE the camera on it.. its truly a great camera in my thoughts dunno about anyone else...

all in all i've found the phone to be great :blush:

queue at chadstone for 20mins, the ex girlfriend bought one 16gb one, its a better phone than the 3gs, better camera, faster processor, but the sucky radio signal thing is true! we paid about 830+ though, no line.

i very much still prefer my blackberry bold, although its getting a little dated, it has buttons.

Got my iphone yesterday.

Can someone check their mail on their iphone.

When you slide on a e-mail (not opening), to "delete" does delete come up or "archive"

Mine says "archive", which I don't want and I don't know where its archiving to.

Edit: worked it out, ah what a relief.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.

      If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
