Is it possible to get a 3g iPhone for $200? "used" on the open market?

After I called to check i could get an iPhone for $200 like 4 times, I sold my blackberry last night and went into the store today to buy one but apparently I am not "eligble" to get an iPhone for 200 and they want double.
I'm not paying that price, A) because I cant afford it, and B) I was told I was eligible but they dont care (obviously)
So is it possible for me to find a "used" but new, 3g iPhone for aroudn $200?
If they always go for 300-500 on the open market, I'm not going to waste my time and just switch carriers.
please tell me that i can.
Thanks guys.
This is really disappointing.

PsychedelicWonders,
Anybody selling an iPhone 3G that is carrier locked to AT&T is probably going to be asking for at least somewhere around $400.
Even if they live in a state that has overturned the Early Termination Fee, if you cancel in the first month or so you may still have to payback the subsidy that AT&T paid toward the cost if you don't return the phone. If you cancel after the first month or so, you will still have to pay the activation fee / first bill, and Early Termination Fee in most cases. That is going to add up.
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.

How to get multiple output formats for each execution of the report?

Hi,
Is it possible to get multiple output formats for each execution of the report? If so can you provide some details?
Thanks

In Reports 6i, Reports Distribution was introduced. This allows you to run the report once and output to a number of destinations with a different format. It also allows you to distribute individual sections within a report to different destinations in different formats.
The Destinations for a Report to distribute to are defined either in a distribution file and passed on the command line or inside of the report definition.
To add a destination to the the report definition, bring up the property palette against the report object and then select the "Distribution" property under the "Report" node. This will bring up a dialog that allows you to create a distribution list. You can then test this list by selecting "file->distribute" from the menu.
To run a report that is to be distributed through rwrun60, you need to add "distribute=yes" to the command line. It will pick up the destinations from the report definition. If you add "destination=<filename>" then it will pick up the destinations from the specified "<filename>" and ignore the destinations in the report definition.
Note: if "distribute=yes" is specified on the command line then the destype/desname/desformat parameters will be used to format the report (ie: which printer/display to use during formatting for sizing objects) but will be ignored when the report is sent to the destinations.

No - your iPhone is a GSM phone and Verizon uses a CDMA network. Completely incompatible device and technology.

Is is possible to get a new iPhone 5c for free when I've bought a defective iPhone 5c?

Is is possible to get a new iPhone 5c for free when I've bought a defective one on September the 30th?

If you purchased your phone directly from Apple, in the US, you have 30 days from the date of purchase to return it for a no questions asked refund. 14 days in the rest of the world. If you make an appointment at the genius bar, & the genius bar determines your phone is defective, they will replace it on the spot. Whether the replacement phone is new or refurbished cannot be determined, as all replacement phones come in a white box. However, given how new the iPhone 5C is, most likely the replacement will be new, & not refurbished. Those are your options.

I plan to buy an iphone 6 from New York. I am from India and shall be using the phone in India. Is it possible to get an unlocked iphone from the store? If yes, how much would it cost?

It is going to be months before any unlocked iPhone 6s will be available.
Also be aware that the iPhone purchased in the USA will only have warranty service in the USA. Any warranty service will require you to bring it back to USA.

Just downloaded iTunes to new dell laptop, tried syncing my iPhone get an error message: "this iPhone cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started". What is the issue, had this phone over a year??

I had this problem before. I like to disable extra services to speed up my computer and I disabled the Apple Mobile Device service and had to re-enable this.
You can do that by going Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Services. Once you have gone to the services window, look for Apple Mobile Device and right-click. Select "Properties". There should be some information about the service as well as the label "Startup Type" with a drop-down menu beside it. If it says "disabled", that is your problem; Change the selection to anything except disabled (Automatic is easier and ensures that you can sync as soon as itunes opens).
If this doesn't work, I would look into your anti-virus' settings. Good Luck!

You can easily check whether you've the Apple Mobile Device in your computer.
Right click 'My Computer' , then Manage => Services and Applications => Services. Apple Mobile Device is listed in alphabetical order. If none, it means you've not download iTunes into your computer yet. If yes, please ensure the Apple Mobile Device is in 'Started' status.
Good luck

Is it possible to get MS Office free for mac?

It is possible to get MS Office free for Mac?

Not legally. And in all honesty, people take a pretty dim view on this forum of those that want something for nothing. Not judging, just saying.
If you want a free production suite (similar to Office, that opens .docx and .xlsx files, etc) then take a look at Openoffice, which is an open-source solution.
