i keep hearing this our that about the camera-phone that will have mp3s and video and all the other bullshit they keep adding onto it. but for what? do people want to rock out to music on their phones? it's not even a phone anymore, it's a camera-phone these days. will there be some kinda ipod-camera-phone-satelite radio-Hotpocket toaster one day that we all carry around in a shoulder bag.

i'm lost. why can't my phone just stay a phone. :|

Your phone can't stay a phone because if it does they can't charge you for all the added shit and service fees for the added shit.

#356216Post 3 of 44

i odn't want a fucking camera on my camera phone. i want a smaller goddam phone :evil:

#356220Post 4 of 44

Yes! And I'm thinking to buy me a Qtek 9090 or Qtek S100 + TomTom Navigation program. Pretty expensive though...

Really? I love all the bells and whistles they are adding to phones. Mine is plenty small right now -- my last one was too small, in fact -- and I can do some crazy shit with this phone. I feel like fucking Dick Tracy.

Right now you have to pay a premium for video cameras, streaming television/multimedia content, etc. on your phone -- if you don't want it, don't buck up extra for it.

Just noticed that I think I worded that wrong. It should have been, "I fucking feel like Dick Tracy." For the record, I am NOT in the mood to fuck Dick Tracy. I need to get my profanity usage straight.

#356307Post 15 of 44

i wouldnt mind mp3 ringtones. the "real" ringtones are so f'in ghetto, basically someone who has no music recording knowledge at all holding a phone pressed against a full blasted speaker recording. the polyphonic are all corny.

I hate cell phones. If I did not have to drive so far to work. I would have never have gotten one. My phone is very simple b/c I that new shit sucks.

#356515Post 19 of 44

I just would like a phone that works and gets great reception....I could care less about all the other features

#356518Post 20 of 44

i'll just take a regular phone with music

#356649Post 21 of 44

I hate camera phones! it's just very useless( i have one) I guess that we should not forget the purpose of things: i'd rather buy a good camera and a decent phone. So, i can use my phone for talking and my camera for taking pictures. The simplyer things are, the better results u get. So, music is for hearing and not for ringing( how would u have a wonderful nick warren masterpiese heard when your fucking boss calls u to tell u you must work on saturday?) naahhhh!

Re: Does anyone REALLY want music on their camera-phones?

I'm just sticking to the basic cell phone. All of that other crap is unneccesary.

i stoped using cel phone when I used to date my exgirl, it was a pain in the ass she was always callin me on unnapropiate times (when I was cheating her lol) I didn't use it for 2 years I think, then we broke up, and I saw myself disconnected from everybody.. There's nothing like a good agenda in your cel phone. The camera is also usefull, I've been able to click a lot of bubbies, asses. . There is this chick that when she calls me, her bubbies appears on my cel, that's quite an advantage for her :P . Now I don't really find it usefull to have mp3s on it. But the marketing in this industry is very strong, they can create a necesity out of nothing, maybe is good to have a nice track as ringtone-
we are actually still cawling on this technology, nokia already developed cel phones that u can control functions in your house with it, (switchin lights, startin your microwave.. ) as well as using your cel phone as credit card, carkey etc-. . some people can already post here thru their celular. would b nice to carry your msn messenger everywhere

#356742Post 25 of 44

I'm holding out for Treo 650 - hate carrying around an mp3 player, palm and a phone around.

I wear a desktop PC around my neck in front of my chest.

#356890Post 27 of 44

Show me a person that NEEDS the lower-quality picture and awkwardness of a camera built in to their cell phone and I'll show you a person who would probably fork over another pile of cash to have an mp3 player in their phone too. For some reason, people think they need a camera everywhere they go. As if having poor quality images of their lives makes their memories more meaningful. They just can't plan on taking more than like 10 pictures cuz duh, most of the phone's memory is used for phone stuff. Adding an mp3 "player" to the mix means you can only have small segments of songs on your phone, which you downloaded using the phone's expensive internet service. Why hassle with those huge digital cameras and iPods when you can have handicapped versions of both in one device!! Yay.

#356893Post 28 of 44

There's so much crap- how is anybody supposed to keep it straight? It seems like they add something new and make the other stuff obsolete every week. There's like 40 million phones on the market.

And people- ringtones are like farts: no one wants to hear them. There stupid and shitty and annoying and the only one who likes them is the person whose phone it is. Oh yeah you're so cool you have Usher play when someone calls you (cuz you a playa!!!)

Or its some horrible MIDI crap. Or some retarded imbicile who thinks having Beethoven 5 play when his phone rings makes him smart.

Actually, it's just indicitive of how much control the corporations have on us.

Enjoy your fuckin ringtones!!!

#356915Post 29 of 44

yes................

have had white stripes as ring tone since it came out :wink:

#356917Post 30 of 44

That?s why I still have my 2-year old Siemens A55. The only "luxury" it has is plyphonic ringtones, but I?ve never used any besides the default ones, It doesn?t even have a color display.

If it wasn?t for the fact that I have kids, I don?t think I?d ever want one either.

Oh, and what about those 3rd Gen ones, with video-calls? How?s a guy supposed to lie to his girlfriend about where he is with one of those???

#356928Post 31 of 44

I work for a major MP3/Video company and we are always having people phoning and asking when there will be a mp3/phone combo.

Personally i agree the camera idea is shite, i'd never use it, so i have a standard nokia phone for making PHONE calls. It has a FM radio on it as well, which i never use.

It may be a good idea to combine phones and players, but like cameras i guess there will be comprises, crap audio and no options. I'm sure within a year we will see the first mp3 player phojne combo.

#356959Post 32 of 44

i bet everyone that's calling is either a nig or a wig. That or some teenage airhead chick.

They're already here. Treo 650, for instance...

Re: Does anyone REALLY want music on their camera-phones?

from the country where i came from.... the digital camera on camera phone is like 3.0 mega pixels... it does EVERYTHING. you can basically have no computer but one cell phone. i heard the cell phone companies are also trying to develop more features on the phone...such as "electornical house KEY" on the cell phone....which i think is a little too much.

#357029Post 35 of 44

no way

#357034Post 36 of 44
