Are iPhones worth getting? -

I am thinking about asking for an iPhone 3G this Christmas, Are they worth the price also are they available in White or is that just the 3Gs?

Most of the people that have said no to your question don t have an I phone. lol Well I have one and I love it. It has got to be the most customizable phone out there. I have had mine since last july and it has never had a virus. I paid 200 for mine and even at that price I would say it has been worth every penny. I have caught several connecting flights that I would have certainly missed if I didn t have the phone. I have used the gps to get me where I needed to go when I was lost. I get my email sent right to it so I rarely check it on a computer anymore. Really thats what an Iphone is, simply a computer that fits in your pocket. As a company Apple has the highest customer satisfaction rating and no company can do this without superior products! I say get the Iphone, It is worth every penny!!!!

The iPhone does not get lots of viruses. There is only one known virus and you have to jailbreak your phone and have an account with a specific bank for your phone to even be vulnerable to it.It is a terrific phone, but really it s a pocket computer that also acts as a phone. I use it for email more than anything else and for taking notes, checking stocks and a hundred other things.That said, Apple suck in terms of customer service so it would be worth looking at some of the new Android phones. They have just as much functionality as the iPhone but there are lots of different models at different prices.

actually its not worth it because you can get an itouch and have allll the same things.even th PHONE. you just ahev to download an app called: icalland you can call anybody without paying anything. the app is free too. all you really need is headphones with the speakers. its really insane, that s why i want one now 8Dtry mine please?http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Ai.SLVKR6fnDn.eZUHe3Sc3sy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20091205183103AAUU93U

my boyfriend got me one that was a refurb for 59 bucks. works just fine, like brand new. i didn t really want one, i m a flip phone kinda person, but it s grown on me. lots of cool apps, i m hooked on pandora radio !!

I think they are totaly worth it, they are very useful, I couldn t live without mine.

nope the i phone supposedly gets a lot of viruses and it costs a lot of money i say its not worth it

hell no.iphones suck, for sure.ive only heard one good thing about them, and that was another comment on this question.

not unless you own a business or have money to burn

New to St. Louis, MO--should I move my car inside for the winter? -

I ve just moved to St. Louis and am wondering what to do with my car for the winter (if anything). It s currently parked outside in a parking lot, but I have the option of renting a carport for $30/mo. The carport has no door, so basically it would just a roof over the car (no extra heat). I ve heard stories of ice storms and hail (though I guess hail is more spring) and am wondering if a roof would be worth the extra cost. On the other hand, I spoke to someone who lived here last year and he didn t seem too concerned. I m mostly concerned about damage and/or my car getting severely encased in ice--I can deal with the usual scraping of snow and frost.

We dont have enough ice or snow storms to warrant renting a space with a roof as long as you dont mind getting out a bit early to scrape the frost off your windows. If you are worried about ice, you can always keep a can of window de-icer in your house for those mornings that you will need it. I d just invest in a good ice scraper and not worry about renting another spot.

If you live in the inner city, then no. But if you live in the suburbs of St. Louis I suggest you do. St. Louis gets a pretty good amount of snow and ice each year. It doesn t really cause too many problems for the inner city cause it usually melts, but in the suburbs it can be bad, especially the ice.I left my car out once and it was almost I guess totaled cause an ice storm took out a tree and it fell on my car. lol.

If it was a garage, I would go for it, but otherwise I would not worry too much about ice. If it does start to sneet (snow and sleet), a lot of people put something over the windshield like cardboard to keep from scraping.

Car port is a rip off if you ask me. Just extra profit in the land lord s pocket.

I had St Louis weather up a while ago, because of a friend Possible Snow Sunday and Ice Tuesday.Still, 30.00 for a carport is ridiculous. A garage yes, as your car stays warmer the heater works faster. Butt I wouldnt pay that for a carport. A carport isnt even going to stop the ice on the windshield.. I think it would depend on how expensive your car is. If its Corvette, Mercedes etc..yes do it.Oh and if there is a bad ice storm coming, you will know.http://www.accuweather.com There will be a big pink area, on your map. If its enough to encase your cars, tree limbs will fall, so make sure youre not under trees, then you should be ok. Go to like Auto Zone and express what you fear. They ll show you what de icer wont damage your car s paint.

A carport really isn t much protection at all, and if that were my choice and if my car were a regular car (not high-end Mercedes, Rolls, etc.) I would save the money and let the car sit outside. If I had a really expensive high-end vehicle I would be looking for a garage for year-round -- summer sun is brutal! If there is a big ice storm, don t worry about getting your car out and going whether it s covered with a carport or not, since it won t even be safe to walk to the car. With a big snow, you won t have to do a lot for a car under a carport, but also won t have the igloo effect from snow cover -- really helpful if the temperature drops to dangerous levels after a snow.I suggest that you save the $30.

$30 for a carport that probably won t do much is ridiculious, as said before. But you could probably find a cheaper one, and then put tarp around it, like on the open side, just tie them to the posts, and on the front, after you get in it, put the tarp on the front down and tie it. That should probably keep most things out (Because, after all, St. Louis can get really bad weather, as in most places), and it won t be hard to take off. Make sure you get pretty thick tarp, otherwise it would be mostly useless. But just in case, keep an ice scraper somewhere, because in St. Louis, anything is possible. =]Hope I helped!GO CARDINALS!

What is the cheapest way to visit the Grand Canyon? -

I want to stay there around a week.

If you can handle camping out at +10 degrees then the cheapest way to do it is to pitch your tent at Mather Campground in the Park or you could camp for free in the Kaibab National Forest which abuts the ParkIf you re gonna use the Kaibab NF makes sure that you have a DeLorme Road Atlas and Gazetteer with you so you don t get lost and at the very least a high ground clearance vehicle so you don t get hung -up on unseen rocks or logs A 4x4 isn t a bad idea either But it s not totally necessaryhttp://www.nps.gov/grca/planyourvisit/cg��Stay warm

Staying at the Grand Canyon is going to be very expensive.
