"...5 hours of battery of talk time, video, and browsing. 16 hours of audio playback."

I don't know if that's good for most high end phones nowadays or not, but if I can't have the thing last on me more than 8 hours or so, doing more than just play music, I'm going to have to hold off until the battery lasts much longer. Guess I'll just keep lugging around my cheap *** phone and nano/zen w/psp a little while longer.

Truth be told I was more interested in the other features besides the phone. I watch alot of movies and other non-work stuff while I'm at work (I'm such a dedicated employee, haha). My zen w can last about 4-5 hours playing movies, I don't imagine the iPhone would last longer.

But then again, looking at the price of the unit, and the storage on it all, I think I'll just pass on the whole thing. Very nice little piece of hardware though.

(w/ 2 year contract with Cingular, probably ~$75 a month if you want the internet data plan too).

Hot, but I think I'll pass. Not worth the Sprint ETF. If we were talking storage able to replace my current iPod, then I'd consider it. But, since we're talking Nano HD sizes, I guess my Apple hard-on is softening.

Yeah, probably not a bad guess on the real price.


I just hope they release a real deal iPod in that form factor.

Yeah i try to avoid TV as much as possible too... only thing i ever watch is history, discovery, speed or football.

Speaking of TV the comcast guy showed up again yesterday (i left a laptop plugged in this time so he wouldnt cry about not having a computer) and he says "oh you wanted me to run cable? i cant do that itll mess up my other apointments for the day" WTF?! we called them and specifically explained exactly what had to be done... this is the 2nd appoinment i have made & this is the 2nd time they have done NOTHING AT ALL. Needless to say i called comcast & told them to go **** themselves im getting DSL.

Yeah the iPhone looks HOT. I haven't had a chance to watch the video yet to see how small it is, but I wonder if it's small enough to fit in jeans pockets like the Dash? I also wonder how well the on-screen keyboard works.

I'm kinda stuck with T-Mobile for a while anyways, and I'm not willing to pay $40 for a data plan that I only use once or so per day.

But I still want it.

Yeah, that keyboard I think will be worse than the traditional setup. I like the plastic keys...
