I would like a review from someone that has this phone, as to it looks pretty dang impressive. I've had the same TREO 650 for about 2 years and I'm ready to upgrade. I've never owned a MP3 player so this would be cool to.

Thanks for any responses.

Saw there was a pretty long que outside the appel store in NY on the news, even a Norwegian that was there to get one of the first phones.

Just got myself a htc phone, and that one got all i need, but the I-Phone looks cool too

I do like it's touch screen design, but considering that most of phones are made in China (meaning not the best dependability), and cellular provider not offering insurance on such expensive phone touch screen is scary.

Everyone buy two. I own some apple stock.
I will probably get the next generation with more storage.

600.00 and they say even the modest user will need to upgrade to the tune of 1000.00 or more additional funds to truly use the phone as designed. Wait till a truck full gets stolen and sold on Ebay unlocked for peanuts.

Its more of a phone for somebody into mulitmedia I have a Cingular 8525 that blows away the other windows/pda type phones, powerful, and so many adaptions for programs, and keyboard rocks.

Touch screens get dirty too quickly, screen will look like s smudge fest in a couple hours, I have a small polishing cloth I bring with me and keep in the office and truck. But on my phone I don't have to use just the touch screen.

Ehuth it not a good idea for a detailer to have a phone like that. i have the moto q. but if your detailing and your sweat gets on that phne you in big trouble. i worked for alltel for 2 yrs and detailers and phones don't mix too well.

I totally agree. I use a razor and it's about to die after being held against a sweaty face 8 hours a day. I can't find a blue tooth that works well either. They all make me sound like I'm in a tunnel. Any suggestions? I've tried moto 500, 700, and a samsung.
