| if it smells like a paperweight, if it claps like a monkey, sings like a bee, makes a telco rich, and screws the consumer with flaws in product development, it must be a hair brained scheme from apple to start the downturn in that boom bust cycle of their popularity in products.. chasing that IPOD high addiction!
maybe if they didn't put so much emphasis on the PHONE part and more emphasis on the WIRELESS INTERNET part, they might have had a product worth taking a look at.. but unless you wanted to did ALL THREE things really well.. such as including pre-n, g, b, all inclusive and allow apps to run on the device and give the device as much processing power/memory necessary to achieve this with good battery life, enable soft-phone voip, etc, etc... but nope.. this is a PHONE/IPOD.. the wireless internet is primarily to support the "file buying/sharing" app vs making wireless internet a robust application, it's not designed to be robust.. and will have other flaws that will be 'improved over time' provided the market wants this product which is FAR, FAR from a done deal.. could be a ton of Chinese paperweights on the way to AT&T for resale..., so if it smells like a paperweight... | |

I agree with this. technically its little more than an integrated phone+ipod, but with some bells and whistles thrown in so Apple can hold onto their design cache. it is not really a full-on internet device. | |
