The iPhone camera is notoriously iffy so any boost to its powers are appreciated. This is a link to the iTunes store for an app by The Mill who are some sort of photo gurus or something. A few presets and total manual control of colours and stuff and its free.

iTunes Store Link-The Mill

This is one for a Photoshop app, not tried it yet but something for free again cant be all that bad can it?

If you want a cheap, nice, easy to use, quite well featured touchscreen phone, have a look at the Samsung Star.

I love to have 3G S...

I got a 3gs iPhone here in the Uk on the o2 network when I'm in Los will I be able to change the sim if so what's the best one to get?

**melvbot** · 08-12-2009, 11:36 PM

If it's a standard phone then I'm not sure if you'll be able to use it without unlocking it beforehand. I'd be very wary of any MBK style unlocker fiddling around with it

Found out today off O2 that you can unlock your iphone now you have to visit this page Unlock my iPhone - iPhone fill out the form and 14 days later its done allowing you to purchase another sim to use on your travels.

**melvbot** · 14-12-2009, 11:42 PM

Nice find davey, might do that myself while it's free. There are other free ways of doing it but if 02 are giving something away the I'm grabbing it with both hands

**daveboy** · 14-12-2009, 11:45 PM

Yep done mine today.

Nice, but wont work in Thailand, get permission denied...says they don't sell to customers outside the UK, but I have an O2 iPhone...I just happen to be in Thailand. Tards.

Anyone got a Motorola Droid yet...lots of hype around this at the moment. Looks nice, but the lat 2 Motorola phones I had both died. First 1 the charger socket on the phone disintegrated, the second ones screen died. Both after just over a year after purchase too....not sure I trust them.

The Droid looks very nice though...

A guy I met in PI had his iPhone working there ok, I wonder if it's a Thai problem rather than a iPone problem

First I heard of it until now, it looks good and the Yanks seem to think it's great.
I am a little concerned about Motorola phones durability though, I've had two and both have blown in less than a year

I get a website redirect, no choice. Guess it'll have to wait until I return to blighty.

I don't know about the 3GS, I've only the 3G, 2 years old model. it's a nice toy but just a toy. If you need a real phone, don't buy an iPhone. Sunday I was in Bangkok, two phones, one the iPhone, the other my old Nokia, same network True. I couldn't have a conversation of more than 30s with the iPhone without being disconnected, no problem with the Nokia. I can't remember the number of time I had to turn off / turn on the iPhone because I couldn't access any function. Nothing worse than when you expect a very important phone call, the phone ring but you can't answer.

I have to admit that I enjoy reading the news when commuting, taking pictures of anything anytime, listenning to music ..., but I may repeat myself, if you need a real phone, something to give and receive calls, don't buy an iPhone. Or like me, carry two phones, one for the business and one for the "fun".

**Stinky** · 15-12-2009, 11:28 PM

Dose anyone know if the HTC touch pro2 is any good?

**jizzybloke** · 16-12-2009, 03:07 AM

How about an Iphone apps thread, Melvbot or someone else should do it because if i put it up it'll be crap!
