Its so funny that on a yearly basis they make the smartphone look more appealing to teenagers. All I see in my city is teenagers and hell some people that work at mcdonalds with a 6700, what are you possibly organizing at mcdonalds, NO offense, but its just funny. I remember the first phone I bought the treo180, and my first ppc phone the toshiba thera 2032. They both cost $649 with a contract, now you can get a 6700 for 2-300 bucks. Its crazy that these companies are downgrading the quality of their devices to sell them to the younger market. The Iphone, the only + that they have right now is that it supports html mail. Thats it. I mean, I have a 30gig ipod and a 80, and the only reason I have the thirty is because it took to long for them to make a 80. And then you have to use wifi to use the browser, because cingulars edge network is worse than dialup.

Just to clear up a few things, the iPhone has flash memory not a hard drive. It will play MP3's. Rumors are that developers are working on writing "programs" via Javascript and possibly Java Midlets. In terms of it being a souped up iPod with a phone, I think for who they are targeting that will probably be more than enough considering its ease of use and industrial design. I have a 6700 (which I got FAR) and will be keeping it unless Apple releases a CDMA iPhone. While the 6700 kb is great, I don't know that I would miss it that much. I guess I am not that heavy of a text/emailer.
