Not convinced that 2G is a problem GPRS/EDGE is fine for the twoddly things I tend to use on my 3G phone (football scores) … and it has WiFi for when something heavy is needed. Granted WiFi is not ubiquitous as yet but there is coverage where I am the majority of the time (work/home).

Regardless - the major positive for me is it is going to force the current phone kings into a MAJOR MAJOR rethink. Just like Mac OS did back in the day.

Everything out now is clunky, crappy and boring - look at the Nokia top o-the-line models, the Blackberry, Treo etc. They will have to adapt / and most likely copy many of the features on the iPhone.

A step in the right direction for phone design … IMHO

No removable battery? Seriously, fuck that bullshit.

a few problems here imo:

-2G (every web thing will be slow, not a hope of downloading tracks or the likes)
-No removable battery (obvious concern with Apple products)
-600 for a phone! = Creative Zen 60GB Vision + 300 for a cool phone!
-Big screen to crack & its not like you can put a cover on it either cos its a touch screen device.
..the list goes on and on
