I was just reading that..it's weird cause I've owned 2 iPhones already(unlocked to tmobile) and it worked fine..didn't do anything special...just set it up just like I did with this new iPhone...still getting the "connection to the server imap.gmail.com has failed"
I called AT&T and they said to do a soft reset by pressing the power button and home button at the same time...all that does is take a snap shot
is there anything I need to change in the mail account set up?

Not too impress with the battery life with this 3GS tho. I left the house earlier tonight with 99%. Got to the gym's parking lot and surfed the net with it for about 5 minutes while the NO Explode get in my system. Started working out using the Motorola S9 BT headset. The S9's battery died on me now it's at 22%! It's kinda odd how fast it drained tonight tho. It's normally not like this.

I haven't cycled it and I haven't had that issue. I'm OK with battery life - it just depends what you do. The lowest it's gotten from a full day of regular use is about 40%. I turn off bluetooth and wifi at work since I don't use those radios, so no sense in having them on wasting battery. I usually stream music from internet radio on the way home now - that drops it about 10%/hr.
I think turning off radios you don't need is the key.

dammit, after seeing a white one in person, i dont know if i should go with white or black.
but then again with the 3GS, i dunno if i should go with white, been reading that they are turning different colors cause of the heat.

Getting a white one will just add to the list of reasons you don't get laid.

If someone emails to me a QuickTime vid....is there a way to download the vid to the iPhone and access the vid via iPod stored vids on the iPhone.....or do I have to go to the specific email that contained the vid to watch it every time?
I know how to do this using my computer and iTunes....but I need to know if all this can be done on the iPhone without syncing with the computer and iTunes .....as if you were on the road without your computer.

if I had to recommend a game right now, it'd have to be "I Dig It" For 0.99 it's a steal. Hours and hours of enjoyment.
