So modest eh?

It's ok, if I had an iPhone I would be bling blingin' it like yourself.

Were you able to sell your 2nd one for a good chunk of change?
I didn't end up getting a second one. They'd only allow one per person. No big deal, I'll still get to write the whole thing off at the end the year as a business expense.

Something like this is a pretty big deal since I spend about 95% of my time with wifi availability.

That's pretty awesome...I wonder if it draws from our normal minutes or if it uses data since it's wifi. I was playing with my brothers iPhone this morning and it's awesome as a web browser and iPod but pretty much sucks as a smart phone...the reception was poor and so was the call quality. Apple/AT&T did a great job of hyping up the iPhone for sales but they really dropped the ball by not making the phone Exchange/Domino compatible and I don't care much for the virtual keyboard. It looks like T-mobile will be the iPhone carrier in Europe but Sony Ericsson already has several phones that do everything the iPhone does and then some for less money.

Amazing, I can't tell you about any of those things because I NEVER used them. As far at the many things the Iphone does, they are awesome, easy to use and work very well. I am very happy with it and love it TONS more than my Treo 750.
The email, SMS, weather, date book, maps, camera. All so easy to use. It's all so intuituve.


Oh yeah,

BAAAAAA

T-Mobile starting a "Hotspot @Home" service where any Wi-Fi spot is subject to FREE calls.
people who travel abroad and have this service will be able to make calls to the US from a Wi-Fi spot and have the call be free.
Other benefits include a free router that has cell-phone friendly features a typical router won't have here.
so the race is on

in review on the wifi phone from tmo:
-its an extra $10/mo
-this is not new technology, wifi phones have been avaliable for a time now. the good ones have a web browser built in with a keyboard/ screen so the user can negociate the 80211 router he is accessing for passwords etc. dont think the t-mo phone can do this and this is why they are supplying a modifyed router.

I can't wait for Skype or Gizmo to come available on the iPhone - one step closer to making it complete.
