Why is everything that's wrong with this phone being brushed aside as irrelevant? Just wait till reality sets in once your using it, bugs, flaw, missing features, patches needed, no buttons, etc., etc. Some folks are acting like starry-eyed kids in love with some actress from afar.

because you can easily do everything you can do with IR in bluetooth to any device made in the past 5 years? it didn't even work well as a remote (no software supports mogul
afaik and the port isn't even powerful enough to use more than a few feet away). basically, bluetooth is the future for everything the IR port does and it works great (and faster/no direct LOS needed). IR takes up precious space in the device and also adds a little to the price of the device. It is completely unnecessary at this point.
you'll just have to start sending your topless photos via bluetooth I guess.... this phone has everything I want and then some - who cares about IR? it has >4x the memory, a faster processor, 2x the rom, graphics acceleration, vga, and tons more that is extra over the mogul - it really is the biggest upgrade we have seen in a long time.... of course I am starry eyed....
