"iphone? Junk right out of the box" "revolutionary software" Are you kidding? The only reolutionary software on the iphone is visual voicemail which is carrier dependant. Can you think of anything other than that, that you can do on an iphone that you couldn't do on 5 other devices for more than 3 or 4 years.Come on the iphone has 2 great features advertising and marketing. If I had a choice between a blackberry and an iphone Id get it. If I have a choice between an iphone and any real convergence device I'd choose anything but an iphone. It does have decent battery life but any iphone user will tell you it gets 2 to 2.5 hrs of actually using the device for what it is intended ie; wifi surfing, mp3 etc. This shouldn't be a big deal just pop in a freshly charged battery and you'll be fine. Instead I have to stay in the car or near an outlet.(Really mobile) Hardware is the best thing going for the device. It looks sleek and pretty, processor is good, and auto rotate is way cool.If you ever try to respond to an email on the thing you'll see why it should have come with a stylus.I think for now I'll live with fliping out my full keyboard for the screen to rotate. I am not a wm6 fanboy nor am I against apple but I am tired of them renaming the wheel and being the first device on the market ever to use one. Hmm phone with an mp3 player built in that surfs the web and gives me email?? wow amazing, especially in yr 2000 when I bought my first real convergence device.I guess apple should invent a little card that would slip in the side of the device that would give you more storage memory. Call it an icard or ichip it will be revolutionary hardware design. Oops, nevermind they will just sell me another device with larger internal storage capacity. It will be an easy up-sell when they go to replace the battery in my current device because I've burnt it out from plugging it in 5 times a day.
