Q&A: Fido IPhone Questions?
Question by Mr.Rogers: Fido IPhone Questions?
Hello, I am fifteen years old and my current phone contract with Fido is going to be up in just a few months. I got the contract when I was 13 because I needed a phone for high-school. Anyway, I purchased a very basic flip phone and now that my contract is up my parents are willing to get me a nice one as a birthday gift.
I personally want to stay with Fido and am aiming at getting the IPhone 3G 16GB on a two year deal. I have read positive reviews and I really like the style, look and features of it. Also, I currently do not have a MP3 or MP4, so getting this phone can allow me to store some of my music and a few movies on it.
My questions are what exactly does the IPhone 3G offer? And how is it different from the ITouch besides the phone aspect of it? In order to use features such a GPS and so on do I have to sign a data plan? Or is it just free? Lastly, I do frequently listen to music on a daily basis for a small amount of time, but my question is would my IPhone 3G be suited to serve me as an MP4 as well? To listen to music and occasionally watch movies?

I have an Ipod touch but know alot about the Iphone. There is alot of more features that the Iphone can do over the Ipod touch. The obvious one is the phone aspect. Also related to the phone it does text which the ipod cannot. It also works as a camera( unfortunately I do not beleive it does video recording yet unless there is an app from the appstore or a jailbroken app). Probably the best advantage to it though is some of the apps avaliable from the appstore. Many of them are not compatible with the Ipod Touch and only work with the iphone. For instance there is an app which lets you put your iphone only up to a speaker and it will detect the song it is playing. I know both the Ipod and Iphone have GPS capabilitys in them. They both include a Map system and street view and can locate where you are on certain applications that is all they have for the GPS capabilities so far, you may be able to get more I am not totally sure. I have about 6 movies and 200+ songs on my 8GB touch and have 1-2GB left so space is not a big issue. the iPhone 3G is an amazing device I bet you will love it.
