said by SSidlov  :said by JoeOnSunset :said by cableties :Why no 3G nor 4G? (answer is, Cingular is biggest one on the block. No EVDO? Boy, us VZW users can't use it so...) Yeah, hi. Cingular's HSDPA is 3G. They didn't keep 3G out of this phone to accommodate Cingular. (According to reports, they kept to out to... keep the size down. Uh, yeah, I'd be willing to put up with a bump on the device for an extra 400kbps.) I heard it was that the battery life is already bad, and worse if it was 3G..... Then go back to the drawing board.
You see, this is the typical Apple problem: design and hype comes first, features and actual usability is the last.
