The iPhone / iPad / iPod Touch circlejerk thread

or the full version via Safari.

This is what I've been trying, but it either wants a web link or won't let you pick a file from the ipad.

Compared my work mates 4S and 5 yesterday and the new design should really reduce the amount of glass being broken, they have really protected the screen well unlike the 4/4S design. I would guess it was huge driving force for the new design.

Also LTE rocks, he is getting 2000-3000KBs download speeds and over 1000KBs uploads.

Telstra LTE in Perth is running at 92mbs!

Just waiting for the TT/ACA bill shock story.

It might be the same issue as that posted in the suggestion box.

Yep - Stupidity is always an excuse.

The one thing I have found is that if you are out of a LTE/4G area the battery drains quickly because the phone is constantly looking to jump up from 3G. 11 hours standby unless you switch LTE off...

Interesting. Are you near a 4G area? I only ask as I'm nowhere even close to one and I'm fine battery wise. I lose about 3% per hour if I'm not using it.

76mbs download with 43mbs upload today. Eek!

[Eldrick]

Nevermind misread the post

Currently at the Telstra store picking up the new iPhone for Joelle.

76 is fast, the best I've seen on my HTC is 48.

[MegaWatty]

Was also getting 10mbps on 3G in the burbs.

I've been on iOS 6 since I got my phone on Friday 21st Sept and have so far used 19MB. The GF updated to iOS 6 early last week and has used 21MB.

So no....

Interesting reading though...

Yeah, hopefully the telco's can work it out and fix, son is wanting to get the iphone5 and as he is only 15 I don't want any huge bills showing up.

From the sound of it the Telco's are pretty aware of it and realise it's not a customer error. Would be pretty ballsy of them to charge customers the excess data. Today / Tonight and A Current Affair would be on top of them straight away!

[timah!]

Nope, nothing massive here either. On wifi at home...

[markTHEblake]

Maybe the idiots upgraded IOS over 3g.

[clikchic]

Just means they're easier to use. You know how the ladies struggle with technology!

Thems fighting words! You know a lady started this site don't you?

You guys must be the luckest iPhone owners around, I would see at least 1 or 2 a day with cracked or completely smashed screens.

I dropped my 3GS multiple times and never cracked it. (thank goodness!) Mind you I did always have a case and screen cover on it. I wanted to keep it in good condition (it's mint cond) and now our daughter is able to use it as an ipod.

I got to the Optus store 20mins before opening here on the 21st and was third in line for my phone. Was out of the store with my new phone by 8.30am.

I am SO happy with my 5 after having the 3GS. Major upgrade for me, much faster, prettier, crisper image and lighter. The 5 will do me just fine for the next 2 yrs.

Still cranky about not having a dock adaptor yet, but wall charger will do for now.

[markTHEblake]

Technically two blokes started the site but they needed a lady to do it for them

[timah!]

Just an FYI, if anyone is having massive battery drain, reset all the settings and should be sweet...

Clearly spoke too soon.

Session start Data Used Time Excess charge

02 Oct 12 12:04 PM	1.11GB	29:35:27	telstra.internet	$14.75

1GB per month plan and apparently I've used all my data in one 29 hour session. Despite the fact of my work having Wi-Fi and my home having Wi-Fi and thats the only places I've been in that timeframe.

This is about to get very interesting.

Lefty Put in a call to telstra and record it, they should credit you another gig. Then it is noted as they know about the fault.
