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?

im in the raincheck line from optus. i sold my 3gs for 550 and paid a early upgrade fee of 370 for the 32 gig model. but its been 2 and a half weeks now without a iphone and with some ancient piece of shit... hope this doesnt take another 2 weeks

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 have a iphone 4 n my reception is shit house with vodafone

i had alot better reception with my iphone 3g

Did you get the free Case? Supposed to help reception issues.

It's the first thing i'll be doing when mine gets delivered.

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:

Keen as to get a new phone, sick of my ancient POS atm

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.

    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
