    Well, I guess if it was possible to obtain without the contract and was correctly priced its a pretty nice alternative to an iPod.
    I think the 10 million sales isn't something they will achieve easily but then, stranger things have happened.

    I'm sure there will be a hundred different versions/generations released after the initial launch adding in all the features they missed out on the first gen.

    They've got to put 3G into it before they release it to europe surely.

    I know the US is a couple years behind europe in mobile tech (and we are behind compared to japan!) but expecting us to ge the internet on such slow speeds is just a joke

    Apparantly 3G will be available before European release, which with Apples track record won't be till 2008

    Im liking the look of the Sony Ericsson W960 over this at the moment. It has similar features, plus a few more - and has a proper keypad. The idea of a keypad without a click response doesnt seem as usable in my mind.

    and in the US the iphone wifi is disabled until you choose a wifi access package - YOU CAN'T EVEN USE IT ON YOUR OWN HOTSPOT.

    Suck suck sucky crap.

    Avoid like the plague.

    things that have to change before anyone in Europe will buy this
    3g, wifi access without payment, removable battery (cos sending to apple to get a new bat will be highly priced and well all know it), longer warranty and most of all APP SUPPORT, web apps are not true apps, we need full access to everything to make it more usable. And i hope it gets hacked quickly. Imagen custom os's that would be intresting
