Apple iPhone

So it's out. It's sleek, slim, and just all-around cool. Did I get one? No. Why? Plain and simple, no HSDPA support. Yeah, Wi-Fi is there, but for the most part, most places like Starbucks, Borders, etc have T-Mobile hotspots that you have to pay for to access. I have Wi-Fi @ home, but don't really care cause I have a Mac and/or PC that I can browse the web on. EDGE sounds like it would be fast though....Nope.... slow like AOL dial-up. Simply not worth my time, especially since I can get EvDO Rev A. speeds on my work provided blackberry. Just you wait guys, by next year, the 2nd Gen iPhone will come out w/ HSDPA support and possibly more storage. Then imagine this, talking over the phone w/ someone on your 2nd gen iPhone w/ a bluetooth headset, while browsing YouTube videos or using Google Maps to find that Starbucks nearest to you. Yeah..... I'll wait.
