Love it. I remember reading somewhere "All these new cars, they look like electric shavers." Kinda the same idea.



Oh, and to make the  (as in TV), it's Option+Shift+K.

I don't know how is there in America but here in Europe almost all GSM operators have 3G support for a year now and people (including me and my friends) are using it for Internet surfing and for watching TV.
I won't buy iPhone if there isn't 3G model offered.
I had numerous 2.9G Smartphones with all of the sexy features, BUT missing the high-speed internet and the TV.
EDGE sucks period!

I have been using a Quad Band GSM phone since 1998 here on the East Coast of America. The Apple iPhone specs clearly says so. So what the heck are you trying to say the iPhone is not GSM?

He never said it's not GSM.. he said it's not 3G which is true. But I think the WiFi makes up for it in a big way.

Nope...you'll be using AT&T. They announced today that the Cingular brand is being dumped in favor of the AT&T brand.

And also the Yellow Pages.com are joining AT&T, with Bell South and Cingular.

I hate to admit, despite being apple product fan and owning almost everything Apple made, the iPhone and the Apple TV are going to be the first two things that Apple made and which I'm not buying for sure if they don't change the restrictions on both. Period. That is it! I talked with my friends and they think the same. Period. They are happy with the iPods and say that the restrictions on the iPhone are "... just redicilous - This time Steve really overestimated the customers' satisfaction for $600 despite Apple product being usually more expensive! The nice fancy design is just NOT enough".

We'll see. The feedback on this very forum was very much alike when the iPod came out originally, and we know how that went.
