iTunes now won't sync music to my iphone, and doing a bit of research it is a common problem, one which people haven't been able to fix

Have you recently sync your phone on another computer. Make sure sync all music is checked. Also check that the computer is authorised.

Is there any error code coming up?

Enjoy! Got to love Itunes! '
Meanwhile copying and pasting on androids is still working a treat! No Google searches needed.

The sooner Apple get rid of Itunes they'll sell a billion more Iphones.

Sounds like a toy for bored people. I will stick to my two-year-old hTC on a $39 a month unlimited plan with Telstra. Works a treat

Underwhelming, as per usual.

Sounds like they're just making it more similar to other smartphones by making it slimmer and with a bigger screen. I quite liked the fact the Iphone was a bit smaller previously so its not getting rid of one of its few selling points for me.
Can't blame Apple for not coming up with anything revolutionary as I think all smartphones have just about hit a brick wall in terms of things they can do.

that is exactly my thoughts. what more could a phone possibly do in the future that it can't do now?

The mobile phone is being set up to replace your credit card. For instance, buy a seat at Footy Park on the phone and at the time of purchase you will be able to put $100 on it and when you get to the gate your phone will trigger your entry, when you go to get a hot dog and bucket of chips and a couple of beers it will pay for you and then fund your next two hours of entertainment. A wrist band is already doing all this at major events in USA.

So people like me who refuse to pay to operate a "smart" phone will not be allowed to attend?
(That will be good for my Telstra shares at least.)

Not quite P. I think the wrist band option will be your saviour.

I'm saved from the dreaded wrist band!
I've just bought a Galaxy Y Duos, which is reasonably pocket sized, and have arranged to have an economical data plan activated on my SIM with Slimtel.
We'll see how it goes, as the risk is low - the phone was only $199 unlocked and I can opt out of the data deal at no penalty.
