It's a phone that doubles as an iPod... or an iPod that doubles as a phone. Either way, you're getting full functionality of both.

It's far more than that. Wait and see what they'll be making it do a year from now. Yes, it comes bundled with the cell phone/iPod/web browser (including Google) capabilities. But it is using a real OS (not just a crippled cell phone firmware "OS") that already has thousands and thousands of real apps written for it. Minor UI tweaks and you have those apps running on your pocket communicator.

Yes, it's an amazing device, but not amazing enough to get me back on Cingular. This longtime Mac user (18+ years) will pass unless there's a Verizon version.

Yes, I know that. But it's easiest to get the point across by saying "phone that doubles as an iPod."
