Re: [rant] iPhone: What's the point with no high speed data? said by MarkyD:said by Eldon:said by MarkyD:show me one smart phone that has come out in the last year without a high speed data radio, be it HSPDA (Cingular) or EVDO (Sprint/Verizon/Alltel). They simply don't exist. Most major cities have EVDO or HSPDA, so there is no reason at all that the iPhone should not have this capability. The BlackBerry Pearl, introduced in September, only supports EDGE speeds. good point. That is one. ANything running windows mobile released recently without high speed data? I'd say that's more of a competitor to the iPhone than the blackberry is... I beg to differ, the BB Pearl feature/functionality lines up pretty well with the iPhone, except no WiFi and it has a suretype keyboard rather than touchscreen (which is probably better anyway). Oh, and you can get one now, even under a 1 year contract, for 1/2 the price.
