Yes some of those apps are quite good, my friends in the industry have their clients using them (the clients that own Iphones, that is). I prefer to do all my own calorie counting, gym session records, weight, bodyfat % etc. in an excel spreadsheet I developed myself.

But I do save each gym sessions records on my phone as soon as I complete the workout, in case I can't input the data into my spreadsheet straight away (so I dont forget what I've lifted)

I'm having "discussions" with Iphone over at least 2 unauthorised purchases through my account.

Have had to cancel my credit card.

Dammit!

Have had to cancel my credit card.

it could be fraud activities.

it's always best to have a credit card that has a small limit for online purchases.
I have a credit card that is dedicated to online buying with only a maximum limit of 1,500 ... so if something goes awry ... i won't lose out too much.

I've had fraud happened to me before. So i've got experience. it's a pain in the ass.

this is why I also don't use debit cards, same technology ... but ... IT'S YOUR CASH ... and thus ... why i didn't apply for the debit card feature when signing up to commsec.

keep a couple of credit cards for security, and always have a small savings card too for everyday transactions. all my online and everyday cards are with ANZ, and NAB, whilst my bigger savings are with other banks and brokers.

I'm keen to get an iphone, but the wife says I have to get a job first

Heard there was a new model out this northern summer, so probably wait for that. Although if still unemployed will have to get a cheap one.

Seen a few kids with them - like taking candy really

She's probably right. Good woman.

really

yeah new model might be 32 gb ... or something ... i'll freak if it's smaller in size, physically ... wanted something smaller. could have waited. but who knows what it will be ... meanwhile i'll have lost all that productivity and learning curve if I had waited ...

Oh btw ... you're not like a Gunners fan are you? "Gooner" = Le'ar$e ?

Certainly am an arsefan, so am in mourning today.

Ah, I took a photo of Rudd and Gillard with my iphone - they were standing about a metre away - brilliant photo (well, technically if not subject wise). I was watching the news that evening - and the TV cameras panned over to me taking a photo of them on my iphone!

How do I get it onto this page?

You have to upload it to a server first that stores photos (or anything) then link it to the http address link in your message with the "Insert Image" icon/function in message menu options.

For a photo server try photobucket. Might be a bit of pain to set up, but once you've done it you're good for next time, and next time ... and the time after that.

This photo (of this actual message while i was composing) was taken with my iphone just now:

Depends how you use it. My debit card account only has money in it when I want to use it, which isn't often.

I've had an iPhone since it was released and have dropped it twice straight onto tiles and cement, still not a scratch on it and works fine (maybe I was lucky?) so I think its a lot tougher than it looks.

I've still got my Motorola RAZR from 2005, dropped it dozens of times (not a scratch!) and it still works fine. I've heard a lot of stories about people having problems, so either I got a good build or am lucky. Who knows.

This thread perked my interest as I'm looking for a good music/game/phone combo, but if the iphone is "delicate" it's not really an option for me, considering my history of dropping phones .

 

[Prospector]

I've dropped my iphone on the road and it still works fine!: It has always worn 'protection' so no nasty surprises.

I use a screen guard and either a hard snap on case for the back, or else a rubber type one (this is getting worse as I type). I think it was wearing the rubber one when I dropped it and it basically bounced a little.

New model out later this month - 32 GB, video and new camera. Very tempted to buy one as have been waiting for a new model
