Ya gotta applaud those bunnies for sacrificing their hearing just so some guy in Cupertino can have better TV reception.

They never "Get it". dntknw.gif

Tiny keyboards, styles' to lose, small screens, etc. They still think "revolutionary" relates to politics! smile.gif

I'll probably never own one, but I have to admit I am impressed with it.
THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF COUNTRIES
Those that use metric = #1 Measurement system
And the United States = The Banana system
CAUTION! Childhood vaccinations cause adults! :yes:

They share the same concerns I have and since I'll be looking for many smart phones, my concerns are not what people who wear Prada boots are, but for those people who know you can buy a better boot in El Paso for under $100 dollars.

I’m also very skeptical about typing on a touch screen, I’ve seen too many broken touch screens in retail stores to have any confidence that they will last, and having Apple have the last word on repair and or replacement doesn’t make me feel any more secure.

Of course there’s always the chance that Apple will use their creative juices to make a better mouse trap, but they may not be inspired to do so if sales are low because their price point is high.

I’m convinced that Apple needed to use 2.5G to appease at&t rather than using 3G , which will probably be changed to suit the overseas market, while the early purchasers of the iPhone will be acquiring a second rate technology for twice the price.
