  Hmmmmm, yeah I read Cringely and while interesting I think he's digging a little too deep with the whole AT&T; needs stuff to prop up its broadband over phone strategy. But I do agree that one reason why Apple released Safari for windows might be because Apple had "bupkis" in terms of insanely great new stuff prepared for the WWDC conference.

  What I've yet to see is a slot to jack in my SIM card. Albeit, I haven't seen any latest iPhone demos nor the tech specs. One of the things I enjoy about carriers that use SIM cards if and when I get a different phone, I can just slot in my SIM. I tend to prefer unlocked phones for this reason. No new/renewed contracts for phones and a feeling of freedom.
  
  I'm also liking the 3G. The first gen iPhone, from what I've heard won't have that compatibility. Then again, there's wifi.
  
  It's probably a safe bet that the data plan will be mandatory. Not sure how the innovative voicemail box system works, but I can see them requiring the data plan to make that operate correctly.
  
  While I'd love to get one, I'm going to do my best to stave off the gadgetfreak in me and wait for the guinea pigs to sort out any bugs first. hehe

  Well, not too long from now we'll be able to go into an Apple Store and check it out first hand. I already know two people who are gonna try and get one right away; we'll see how successful they are. I hope they are so I can check the iPhone out hands on.
  
  Personally as I mention above I'm holding off for now. That's a lot of moola for a phone plus the contract with AT&T.;
