Recently, some idiot thought it was a good idea to rip my headphones that i got with my iPhone out of my ears.. Breaking the wires inside. So, now im on the hunt for some new ones..


Unfortunately, I am not really willing to pay $60 just for a new pair from Vodafone, however, I would like to have a pair that came from apple..


So if anyone can let me know, New or used as long as its in good condition.

True.. but you never know, right?
I mean they could have had an insurance replacement iphone and be left with another pair.. so yeah..

and thanks for your reply.. by the looks of that they're not actually avaliable yet? only the older ones are?

Hi
Don't know if there is any difference between the headphones for the 1st gen & 2nd gen iPhones or which one you have, but I have headphones for the 1st gen iPhone if they are any use to you?  They look to be in pretty good condition.

I see, I just had a look.
I just called them up today, to ask if I could increase my Hard Drive on my macbook air,
I kept on connecting to some hotel place.

Might be a good idea to pick up from their store in newmarket or something :P

Just a heads up, just in case.

Thats weird.. I rang them the other day, had no problem at all.
I spoke to a guy named Issac. Pretty decent guy actually, was on the phone to him for maybe 20-30 minutes.


I rang the new store that has just opened.

So I dont know what was happening with your call? weird.

Lol, yeah, fair enough warning though.

Very weird, never heard of such a thing before. I actually rang my local(ish) store before ringing then, and didnt have a problem with them either.

I see, I think it might just be a problem with my phone.
Have been having some problems with my home vodafone landline.

I am currently using sony headset for my iphone3g, I bought an invisible shield.
Your should get it, it's almost 100% scratch proof :)

[try keys, forks, rocks, pens, and various of other sharp objects,
I then used my very sharp craft knife and it seems to ahve a very very minor mark
on the surface of the shield protector....hmmm]

Put overall it's a grea product :)

Ha, one step ahead of you, mate.  Already have one =D
I had one for my 1st gen iPhone too.
Those Invisible SHEILDS are brilliant.

Yeah, I've been having problems with Vodafone (my cellphone) account actually. They've been screwing up my phone settings like forwarding all my calls to some random number, and turning my caller ID on and off among other things.


Not a good look if you ask me :P

Supprisingly they have many broadband users which is connected to their company,
however I called them up and they only have 32 employees working at a time during weekday shifts,
managing all the technical problems...no wonder customers have to wait up to 1 hr sometimes to get help!

I would hate to know how many staff work during weekdays...They might as well not have customer service
call centres at all...

I would change companies...if their prices weren't the cheapest and provide adsl 2+

:P

You'd be the first person I have ever heard say that, to be completely honest.

I just had a look at VOdafones prices.. and compared to it to my current provider (Slingshot), and found that I would actually have the upperhand being with who i am now than moving with Vodafone..

But then with your situation its problably different to mine.
