iPhone Questions

Will be pulling the trigger soon but had some questions...

1) Any difference in battery life between 4gig and 8gig?

2) SIM card, Can I use the iphone SIM in my razr if I did not want to use the iPhone somewhere (IE bacpack , consructionsite, other)?

3) If some how I lost/damages I\IPhone SIM... could I use RAZR sim in iPhone (Restart?)?

4) Am I correct in assuming any itme on the web using edge would go against at&t plan minutes?

Thanks folks

1. My guess is, not enuff to matter.
2. Yes.
3. According to AT&T any "recently" issued SIM will work. No definition what "recently" is.

4. No. The iPhone plans all include unlimited data transfers.

Surf Monkey,
Are you positive? That is awesome news (for me ) if true.

It's true. Email and Web are all covered by unlimited data on all the iPhone plans. The only data subject to limitations is SMS, which you can choose to buy as unlimited for (IIRC) $20 more per month. Even then they don't count against your minutes. Nothing but voice counts against minutes.

Memory does not matter in the battery stuff, it hardly has any load on the battery and an 8gb can work as fast and quick as a 4gb would. So no difference in anything except the price!

Useful informations, but I doubt the battery consumption depends very much on the memory.

An Apple ID can be used on all your iOS devices and up to 5 computers. iCloud, which is tied to the same account, can keep some info in sync between multiple sources including a computer. It can be used for many other Apple services if you are a Mac computer user, such as the Mac Apps Store and purchases through iPhoto. The same account can also be used to make purchases through the Apple Online Store as well.
