Default Introducing the iPhone...

Introducing the iPhone...Ammazing! I'll be purchasing it in June when it ships in the USA at Apple and AT&T/Cingular stores.

http://www.apple.com/iphone/

http://www.apple.com/quicktime/qtv/mwsf07/

http://www.cingular.com/cell-phone-s...9801j01R00n300

Look at the photographs of it here in Wikipedia. It's Beautiful.

http://pogue.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/...ked-questions/

Just watch the introduction video: the second link; then the second selection labeled, "Watch iPhone Introduction".

I'll bring more links as I find them.

Mehtacular over-priced, over-hyped product.

You were joking that you were gonna be purchasing one right? I mean apple is over pricing them by like $300 and there are multiple phones out already that do more than the iPhone does for cheaper and you aren't locked out of using 3rd party software and you aren't stuck with one carrier.

Most "smart" phones are about $300. The iPod Nano 4GB is $199. That equals $499 that many...many people are paying for two devices. The iPhone does...so...much...more. I'll be getting the 8GB iPhone for $599. The 4GB iPhone is $499.

Just... watch... the... introduction. It's OK...to be impressed.

As a smart phone, the iPhone does absolutely nothing more than any other smart phone, and actually far less when you consider the lack of integration with MS exchange server et all in the corporate world. Integrating a portable music player of any sort into a phone is just plain stupid IMO.

iPhone is not impressive in the slightest.

Considering that it doesn't run a Windows-based OS, I doubt it.

I have an old cell phone that I can tape an old mp3 player to. I'll just ask $100 US ...

But... it's big and bulky and... the tape covers the buttons.
