After about three months, I gave my iPhone to my son. I loved its Internet capabilities, its slick aesthetics, etc. I LOATHED the keyboard, however, and since my cellphone is my business lifeline, it had to go.

My pent-up demand is for the upcoming Blackberry Bold. Now there’s a good looking phone, and nothing beats Blackberry when it comes to business comms.

I hate the AT&T coverage in Seattle and you can only use them with the Iphone. Sorry Jobs, you won’t get my business till you dump your exclusive carrier arrangements.
AT&T is notorious for over subscribing their networks and you get dropped calls constantly with them. I’m sure its going to get even worse with everyone doing large data downloands on their 3G network.

I’ll be in line to get one as soon as they’re available. It’s my husband’s father’s day gift. Then, I might get MY iphone back!! :-)

Apple screwed the first group of suckers and now they have a ton more? Proves a sucker is born every minute.

Awesome!

You have no idea how much I would love to add to that pent up demand, but the two locations where I need AT&T service (my home in Maryland and my vacation home in Pennsylvania), AT&T provides no bars while Verizon Wireless provides a strong signal.

I just ordered two LG Dares from Verizon today for the wife and me.

Apple...thanks for screwing those of us who love Apple products but can’t use this one.

Really? Pent up demand?

I didn’t realize that there were that many single guys who lived with 3 cats out there.

Thought this teardown might interest you -

“We were all expecting a bigger battery, and I can’t verify this, but this page references the part number on the battery and lists a capacity of 1150 mAh, not the 1400 mAh in the original.”
