No. I already have a phone that plays music and can browse the web and can stream live TV. Oh, and it can also make phone calls.

anyone who buys one of these is a fool. what is it, $500-600? plus you have to commit to at&t? those things look so fragile. doesn't apple realize how people treat their cell phones? i drop mine daily. plus, they're usually kept in pockets/purses. that'll wreak havoc on the screen.

That doesn't matter. Apple knows their marketing. Hell, is it even their marketing? I don't even know anymore. People just go crazy for their stuff.

Why would anyone buy this? The chance of a new, improved, and cheaper version coming out in a year is almost guaranteed.

Its not a bad idea to wait for an iPhone if you like earning huge profits from selling the iPhone on eBay. I think its a smart thing to do considdering an iPhone will probably fetch $1500 to $2000 on eBay in the first few hours.

No, this is sparta.

No one can safely use the words "this is maddness" or use maddness or blasphamey in a sentence online anymore without someone else saying this is Sparta

Thats a new rule ok everyone!

I would never stay up that late for a phone or a console for that matter. A phone is just for making calls and the extra features are like extra bonuses that they decide to throw in so it doesn't matter to me how many features the iPhone has. Although it does look really good! :)

Well, why buy anything new? Why spend thousands of dollars on a fast gaming PC when it's just going to be outdated in 6 months?

Obviously, for some people, paying $500 is WORTH not having to wait. And when a cheaper, better iphone is released in a year, they'll buy the new one too. And they will be perfectly satisfied, because they got to have the iphone a year "early" and it only cost them $500.

Honestly, I was going to get one. The only reason I didn't is because I'd have to sign a two year contract.

That's it. If it wasn't for that one thing, I'd have an iphone right now.

there's a video on apple.com that shows you all the things the iPhone can do and i noticed the guy wouldn't stop talking with his hands, as if here were emphasizing his words or something. i also noticed this in other Apple videos why does Apple feel the need to talk with their hands in their videos?

Yeah, like my iPod screen isn't already a little scratched...and I always keep it in the crappy case that comes with it. And I'm not paying $30 for a better case. That's just a freaking joke. Anyway, as I've said before, where is the GPS map function on this thing? And it doesn't even use the faster wireless internet protocol? For that much money? And when you actually use it as a phone, isn't the screen going to get all icky? (Thank you for that one, Hotspot crew.)

Now for a long time I've been waiting for someone to make a solid PDA / music player / net access device with a nice chunk of storage space, and while this is a nice effort, it doesn't quite hit the mark for me.

The features that make it seem semi-cool are so horrible in America. I don't know why anyone would buy them here.LukeAF24

OMG, did LukeAF24 actually say something negative about the States. Is there a cardiologist in the house?

I wish I was in line for one now. Don't get me wrong I wouldn't use it or even take it out of the box. I'd sell it on Ebay for like $2000+. I know some poor sad apple fanatic would would buy it lol.

WIFI is fast EDGE is slower but way faster than it used to be and i dont know what you mean by expensive you pick a plan that is surprisingly affordable and it has unlimited data which web browsing until youre hearts content, and btw whoever said the psp can do everything the iphone can do just doesnt know anything about the iphone ( or the psp i guess).

sorry for double post, i just got to say that whoever thinks they are going to sell their phone on ebay and make a bunch of money is just pure ignorrant because you could walk into an apple store and ask for an iphone and you would get one without any problem so just do youre research.
