Everything looks like it's falling into place with the network.

I wonder how many people are gonna hop on-board with the new iPhone?

Damn near every person I know has and is going to pre-order the phone!

Just for kicks, I don't want to argue, but how many people do you think will sign up for ATT in July?

My guess is 1.5 million new subs in one month.

Nahh, I'm not an apple Fanboy by any means, but as soon as I can get the darn websites up, I'm preordering. I've had a reg. phone for the last 2 years, wanted a PDA and frankly, I trust the iphones quality to last over most of the other manufacturers out there.

Yeah build quality is important. Even newer laptops are starting to be made of aluminum! My Moto Droid has really good build quality,...well at least so far.

So since "IT&T" sold out of all their pre order Iphone inventory, do you dare to guess how many that was?

I didn't make that up, I read it in the forums at either BGR or Engadget, can't remember which one.

Their already losing customers cause of their commitment to Apple. People who want Android are going to other carriers,
*I'm one of them*. I'm sure a lot have left for the Moto Droid, and Evo 4G, and likely more will leave next month for the Droid X.

I'm for whatever phone I think is cool. I don't worry about which network it is unless that network is Tmobile. While I like Tmob's prices, their network leaves something to be desired. I see it reflected in the performance of my friend Albert's Nexus One in South Florida. Its performance is too erratic to convince me to switch to Tmobile fro...

As you may recall, I had a Nokia N95 for 2yrs, it was an awesome phone.

Nokia has a lot of challenges ahead of them.

In the US, yes. The world over = Symbian # 1 by a seriously large margin.

The N95 is an incredible phone.

It was so incredible that it kept me happy for 2yrs.

But now smartphones are moving so *fast* that I read headlines on Phone Scoop wondering what my *next* smartphone will be capable of. HDMI out, 1.5+ghz processor, it's impossible to imagine all the capabilities a smartphone will have by the time I qualify for an upgrade (11/11).

If I like my phone, I'll keep it the full 2 years.

Hmm, I didn't know Best Buy Mobile has a catalog. As far as I know there aren't any "Best Buy Mobile" stores here in Las Vegas. Of course there's Best Buys here with a wireless deptpartment.

The separate Best Buy Mobiles in South Florida have a nice monthly ad I call a 'catalog'.

It will be very interesting to see what happens. The iphone has a great following and current iphone users should be expected to either upgrade or stay put. New customers however? Hard to say. Iphone popularity versus the new AT&T data plans... I think the iphone can overcome a lot of objections. One thing about the new data plans though... Someone should think long and hard about leaving AT&T if there is a chance that they may be going back.

The scary thing is Vzn is also talking about metered data. So it's just a matter of whether or not they are as stingy as ATT.

I've used 4gigs this billing cycle and still have 9 days left, if I have to go to Sprint to get unlimited so be it.

As far as I'm concerned it's up to the carriers to adjust to the customers demand, not the other way around. Customers demand more data than the measly amount ATT is offering then it's up to other carriers to meet customer demand.

I'm sure the whole landscape will change by the time I qualify for an equipment upgrade (11/11), or my contract expires (03/12)

It's the Samsung Galaxy S Pro that really has my attn, it's a Wimax phone. . .ooohhh ahhh!!!!!
