Re: Already the phone to beat
Well, its the phone to beat if your into Apples. If your not, its just another phone 
Just like the MacBook Pro. Its just an overpriced notebook to 99% of the people out there but its hattori hanzo of notebooks to Mac crowd. |

|  Is that kind of like how the iPod is just an overpriced mp3 player to 99% of the people out there? Do you suppose the iPhone similarly will only appeal to and be purchased by Mac users? |

Actually if you visit the Mac forum, you'll see that there are very few that are going to buy one outright.
I, for one, am going to take it home and use it and if it doesn't do what I want (and saw in person at Macworld in Jan.), I'll return it, get my money back and wait for a later version.
Every phone (about 3 phones) that I've tried has suck-ass interaction with my Mac and if this iPhone can do what it touts--I'm there, end of story. YMMV.

I will wait to see.
"Undeliveredware" will often win in comparisons, even if they don't and shouldn't really count. |

Actually there are a large number of Windows users that own iPods... so either they don't think iPods over priced, or they like to waste their money... oh wait they are Windows users! |

He said the interoperability with the Mac is key. None of the copies offer that tight integration thus far.
