iPhone doomed from the start?

Some nice quotes there muzikool, though some of the negative ones are more of a network (AT&T) problem then they are the fault of the iPhone. They are the type you would see on most any phone on their network.

Yeah, and most of the other limitations can be addressed with software updates -- and Apple has said there will be free updates with new features.

That exclusivity agreement with AT&T will come back and haunt them. That network just sucks.

Yeah I have a bad feeling about it... I can't think of anything that prompted Apple to go through with the deal other than it was the cheapest offer...

I don't have any problems with AT&T, then again I live in New York which is a lot of coverage.

That was cool. Damn, they made it just like an iPod. Battery buried in it's innards. Wonder how long it will take for someone to post a "How To" on the net for R&R of the battery? Now does it have a flash drive or is it a hard drive? If flash then I can't wait to see who figures out how to open it up and place a bigger capacity flash in it.

I can see it now you get an important document or image attached to an e-mail or voice mail. You want to save it on your iPhone. You get an error message stating "Insufficient memory, delete songs to create more available space.

You get 4GB or 8GB of flash memory.

Nice looking screen. Nice video. Nicely done.

I get a lot more coverage from Cingular around here too...especially inside buildings...for some reason.

Another video review from USA TODAY's Ed Baig & Jefferson Graham. Warning: It's pretty hokey to start out. I'm also not too impressed with his use of it -- why does he keep using his thumb? :laugh:

"To people in line for iPhone: people lined up for Windows 95, too, which was equally popular and revolutionary. In 2019 you'll understand."

*sigh* here we go.....

My favorite part of that video is "But does it have the Apple logo?" Sad, but seems so true for some people.
