I just don't see the iPhone really hitting it big with "hardcore" cell phone users beacuse cell phones go out of date within 3 months nowadays. iPhone users are most likely going to be the people buying it for style over utility.

iPhone is available with Cingular ONLY!? And what if I am stuck under contract with a carrier OTHER than Cingular but still want a iPhone?

Well, the only solution I could fine was http://www.Cellswapper.com - they get you out of any cell phone contract!

It's really not about phones. It's about screens.

Sure, great gadget, fun TOY, lots of 'features'. I'd buy one except for the one thing nobody is talking about - MONTHLY FEES! I'm willing to bet that basic service plus 'options' which will allow one to use those 'features' will be higher than the cost of maintaining my BMW Z3 (and I get a lot more 'Bang-for-the Buck' from the car). I'll stick with my laptop with Slingbox, stand-alone GPS, a REAL camera and an expendable phone and laugh at the folks who'll pay for such inane nonsense as 'ring-tones', etc.

*hehehe*

This very sedate thread reminds me of the more vociferous thread going on over at Metafilter.

Someone there linked back to the original iPod release thread at Slashdot, which was highly amusing since you could basically cut and past iPhone into the iPod slots for the criticisms leveled at the original iPod.

"We have been doing this for years." - Yes, you have, but joe phone buyer has not, and that is the market they are shooting for.

Dang, I wondered what the Newton has been up to all of these years.

Scott Beale, I don't have a website. My friends are looking at this phone and saying well what is new. We have been doing this for years. There are several touch screens for smart phones. The OSX OS is not very compatibale and is harder to program for compared to Windows CE.

Um, maybe I'm too old school, but - how in the heck do you make a phone call on that thing?

I love the new iPhone but the Apple TV doesn't do much for me. The phone has some cool features that could make this the phone to have. Plus the phone could be the model for future advanced phones such as real time video phones seen in science fiction movies. Maybe not soon, but evehtually.

school1012 - So how long do you plan on doing your anonymous trolling of this blog? That's your 3rd inane comment in a row. Do you want to try for 4? Hey I have any idea, why don't you list your name and website the next time. I'm sure our readers would love to read more of your fascinating insight on tech.

Don't see anything special here, except it is thin.
