This pretty much hits it on the head. The moment the iPhone becomes available it's going to become the "must have" fashion gadget for everyone on the planet who is 13-49. $499-$599 for a small breakable device that is probably not upgradeable, has outdated EDGE radio, can't have its battery replaced and forces you into a new 2 year contract with the mobile provider? Joe 6 pack won't be able to pull his (or mommy and daddy's) credit card out fast enough to make this dream a reality. I fully expect Apple to give away about 10,000 of these to professional athletes and movie stars just so that they are quickly seen in the hands of society's "elite" and all the normal folks who are already afflicted with the worst consumerism seen in this country since the 1930's are in an absolute rabid frenzy to get ahold of one. -- jmpage2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jmpage2's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31507 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
