No argument of its elegant design, sleek style and look, it scores top in my book of toys. Yes you heard toys.Forcing one to have only one provider is like an expensive form of indentured servitude. And to add a 2 year contract on top of that already overly high price gadget.
Cingular is AT&T if anybody is wondering.
So what if you choose not to go with Cingular and don't subscribe to Cingular? Then the iPhone has just become a very expensive non-functional paper weight.
I am holding off myself, let it run a few generations to work out the "bugs" no doubt happened when they rushed to to get it to market on time. Meanwhile its Linux phones for me.
For now its a rich man's toy, want to impress the ladies with your Uberdom just whip it out and you are an instant talking piece.
As for me, an exclusive Cingular contract sounds like a large price to pay for a modified PDA/cell phone I'll pass for now.
But if they open up their sources, allow other carriers to service me and as long as the device has a blue tooth keyboard, we're in business in the near future.
