missing the point..
I think some people are missing the point when it comes to the iPhone. I definitely agree on the "not wanting it" part. I've got a Pearl, and I'm incredibly satisfied. Plus, its a lot easier on the pocketbook.
But Apple's intentions with the iPhone were not to match everyone else's phone on the market. Of course it is missing basic features that we're used to. That's the point! Apple set out to reinvent how we think of a cell phone. The key word there: reinvent. It's not supposed to compete with every other phone. It's supposed to redefine the idea of it. If you don't like it, cool. But to say it sucks because of lack of features doesn't work.
