Default OT IPhone = WOW

Even though currently it is more or less co-owned by AT&T, the name
"iPhone" is very misleading. It is a touch screen driven handheld computer
with Internet and telephone functionality. Also includes a microphone,
speaker, camera, motion sensor, and GPS functionality. The touch screen
used for input and output makes very efficient use of the real estate, and
it is a marvelous input device. It fits in a case on a belt clip.
Preliminarily speaking, given its portability and ease of use, the possible
applications for all of its input/output devices are stunning. It looks
like a quantum leap to me. We are talking system overload here, like when I
first started using a 386/486 PC.

Anyone else here have experience using one for a month or more?

further experience with the thing is disappointing.

Nope I am still happy using my "Miami Ink" edition of the Motorola Razr
v 3 through T-mobile. I imagine that an Iphone with contract renewal
would still rather pricey.

So... Ignorance is bliss?

Yes it is, and like I said, the "iPhone" is a misnomer.

By the way... I would guess that someone who walks, jogs, cycles, street
skates, or somehow otherwise treks through the concrete jungle might find
the iPhone even more useful more useful than a car driver would.
