A few days ago I was planning to buy an iPhone immediately after it became available in Mexico. Fortunately, I followed my usual way and waited to see the first reactions of the early-adopters.
Thanks to Xavier Muñiz for it kind volunteering to beta-test my next phone
See his “iPhone + Mobile Me solution – It feels so familiar” entry.
Xavier, as Telcel did not released plans with unlimited internet connection included. I am very interested in your experience on switching from/to EDGE/Wi-Fi. It is automatic? Can you configure with preferences (use Wi-Fi when available, if not, switch to EDGE?) or… if it must be manually reconfigured. It is easy to do it? It is practical for, let’s say 2 or 3 changes a day?
I am also interested in the music player abilities/quality and in the voice recorder feature.
Let’s see if an iPhone is in my future.
Volunteering? What volunteering? I want my check!
Here are your answers.

By the way, Telcel does have an unlimited data add-on for the iPhone plans; it costs ~$500 MXN (you pay the plan base price, plus the unlimited add-on).

Hey Xavier! Thanks for your input. I was not expecting less. I *may* test that funny apple-thing after all
Yes, I am aware about Telcel’s add-on unlimited data plan. I just think they should been promoting an all-inclusive, all-you-can-eat package (you know, me being myself hehe).
What? I am pretty sure you bought that phone on automatic mode. I had not the need to broke your arm hehehe.
(me, just being Regiomontano).
Saludos
