| It takes a few times to get used to the iPhone keyboard, but once you do it is amazingly simple and easy to use. The big difference causing people problems is that the actual character you type isn't put in the "document" (e-mail, sms, note, etc) until you let go of the key. This is of course the reverse of the normal way keyboards work. You can hit the D key and slide your finger over to G, then let go. It'll type G. That's why each letter pressed enlarges as your finger is over it. All it takes is a little one-on-one time with the phone and some practice. I can type notes out faster (with fewer errors) on this now (1 week later) than I can on a Palm using graffiti or a Blackberry with a normal-style keyboard.

| Strrrrrrrrrrrrrrrike! Could all the conspiracy theorists who claimed Apple is forgetting about the Mac, Firewire etc., please stand up? Since the new iMac's introduction, Apple's homepage shows the iPhone only in the lower right corner. The other fields? iMac (now with Firewire AND Firewire 800, btw.). iLife. iLife tour. iWork. Now for the conspiracy theories... Is Apple abandoning the iPod?
