Apple Delivers iPhone
I would like to point out the obvious lack of 3g
You will see changes to it over the first months of its release. EDGE is fine for the bulk of what it needs to do.
at 500$ for 4gb and 600$ for 8gb
I dont think it will set world on fire, yet.
But RIM and PALM really need to wake up or they will be dead soon, if someone makes and app that will act like activesync, enabling tie in's to exchange servers, this device will cause Blackberry's, Treo's and Q's to die out quickly.
Since the price will also drop in the first year its out. and the capacity will increase.
Its powering the following.
battery 1 powers the ipod parts
battery 2 powers the phone
Power hungry parts are as follows
1. Bluetooth
2. Wifi
3, Screenbacklight
4. tilt sensor
5. CPU
6. the touch screen sensors
Battery life will be quite the achilles heel for this thing. (hope I spelled achillies right)

Maybe not. They did right batt-life-wise by not going with 3G yet, plus I'll bet the 4GB and 8GB capacities mean flash memory (a la Nano), instead of a power-hungry hard drive.
The batt life will likely be decent.

THANK GOD IT DOESNT HAVE 3G...are you kidding me thats such good news....do you have any idea how fast your battery would drain with 3G networking...uhhh id give it about 2-3 hours of browsing/talking....at least weve got probably a good 5-6 hours of everying and 16 hours of audio playback!!!
Word.
If it did have 3G, people would then be complainin' about the s***y battery life. 👀
Verizon strips out too many features from their phones and you can't buy and unlock cdma phone.
I don't care what you call it. Allow me to use all features the phone manufacturer intended not just the ones you can't make money off of and therefore strip out.
and yes tuminatr, people would complain about it, and once doctors and scientists got involved they would be complaining about radiation to the brain for that network that still hasnt been resolved yet. Id rather see a 5-6 hour talk life on the battery during steve job's keynote than 30 min to 1 hour battery life with a 3g network, not worth the faster 1-2 seconds download time per webpage
