on new U.S. carriers within a year]


  Hi Scott, 


  Bit off topic, but just thought I would mention that when you forward 
articles this way only users who receive your mail in Rich Text mode will be 
able to click on the link.  This is the source of the problems that James had 
with some of your earlier posts.  If you check in the mail archive forums for 
this list, all these forwarded entries show up with non-clickable links and no 
information about the URL for the source.


  So for James and others who may experience difficulty.  This link is:


  
http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/09/08/31/apple_expected_to_offer_iphone_on_new_u_s_carriers_within_a_year.html


  This may be too long for users to easily click on from mail.  I don't like 
posting links to sites that can't be easily identified, but the alternative is 
to use a tiny url, and have users first go to:


  http://tinyurl.com/preview.php


  and accept a cookie so they can first preview the site address.  Then a 
shortened link like:


  http://tiny.cc/XIkg1


  can first be verified at least as to its source address.


  Cheers,


  Esther

    Folks, I know there has been a lot of excitement
     about SL, but I wanted to share this article, which updates some other 
areas Apple is working on.  One of these is about the iPhone and even the 
future of the Apple TV perhaps.
    Check it out, there are some interesting bits in here.Begin forwarded

      Apple's worldwide single-carrier exclusivity model for each nation is 
seen as fleeting, as a new report suggests the iPhone could be available for 
carriers other than AT&T in the U.S. within a year.
