im not sure when its out in europe, but i dont really care as i have no interest in this. If its anything like there other products(ipods/macs) it will be utter crap. Im guessing its going be overrated overpriced and people are going buy it cause 'someone else has it so under perfect logic it must be good' just like some many people bought crappy *** ipods.

Whats wrong with ipods?I can see ur argument with mac's cause they suck, but ipod was a good invention.It has the best interface of any other mp3 player that i've seen.It's a very good quality mp3 player its just a little overated,and over priced.But definitely not crappy!

my wife is deep into the cellphone business. The Iphone is already an industry joke. Its riddled with glitches and doesnt work right. Its gonna have a failure rate so high its gonna make the 360 look glitch free. Only the "gotta have it"s are rushing to get it. If you like it, give it about 3-5 yrs, and everyone will have it anyways, much cheaper, more options, and alot less glitches.

Looks cool, but its decieving. Its a normal ipod with a slow internet browser. its not even 3G. Not only will you throw away atleast $500 big ones, but the lowest plan is $60/month and the highest is $100.

Some other company will come out with a better phone.

Macs = suck. Ipods = suck. From those two statements, one can also conclude that iPhone = suck. IMO

saw on the news this morning a guy waiting since monday in line outside of a apple store to get the Iphone. I would never wait like that didn't do it for 360 and won't for anything else.

dude, like i said, give it a few yrs, and all carriers will have one, for cheaper, with less glitches, and more options.
none of the technology is new, its just a flashy presentation.

what i want to know is, since the whole thing is touch screen, how often is it gonna **** up your calls when you hold it to your face to make a call? Thats the feature they ARE NOT showing... wonder why

WOW! We got some Mac HATERZ around this joint. Jesus. iPhone looks cool, has some cool features, but like Remix said, I'm gonna wait a couple years and see what happens. Having only one carrier is going to hurt sales and if it is full of glitches at this point, who needs that? I tend to be an early adopter but with phones....meh.
Oh by the way Apple = Kick PC @$$. Flame on!

NP. Hopefully Jake can give you a link to a hilarious site. Both Macs and PC's have their own unique problems so it is a matter of preference. I'll try and find the site for you.
