Oh, it has apps. Macintosh apps, thank goodness. I dont need the slew of 3rd party apps that my Treo required to be both a phone AND PDA. Most importantly it has the web. So instead of having a dictionary, I use wikipedia or google or whatever. No need for my planetarium software either, I have the web. Since I'm a mac daddy, it works seamlessly with my Mac home network and .Mac account/online services. My MacBook pro is getting jealous and lonely... It may be relegated to Windows use for Walls and Delorme.

No apps...geez lol
I have a Verizon 6700...$150 on Ebay...its got Windows Mobile....camera...wifi....keyboard....1000s of apps, and most importantly the ability to put Skype Mobile on it which we use in any Wifi network to make cell network free phone calls to anywhere in the U.S./Canada for $30 for the year. Pull in a Wendy's connect to the wifi...tap Skype and call anywhere in the world crystal clear. Calls are better quality than normal cell calls. I used an Iphone today...the owner was only semi impressed and once he realizes its major limitations as far as apps go it will be a goner.

Sprint/Nextel----The end of 2007 they launch their WiMax network in 3 cities.....it will be a true technology disruptor once it is fully available.

As for wear and tear, it is iPod-like. There are cases, but they add bulk. I like mine slim and pocketable. My Treo went for years w/o a case. There IS a slight downside to my unit, I can't add apps or ringtones. They are "built in". I expect them to get added in upcoming versions. I hope.

I am thinking about getting one, but thought I'd wait until the intial hype had burned out (and my current cell contract expires). I might buy one through Apple's web store, but there's a 2-3 week delivery time.

But I'd rather hold one in my hand before making a commitment.

What I'm wondering is how much abuse the thing can take without getting all uglied up. Can it be treated like a regular cell phone you just stuff in your pocket, or is something you should treat with more care?

Right now I have a Samsung A900. It's all scratched up (has "character"), since I shove it in my pocket, but it's a flip- phone, so the main screen is protected. I don't care for my current provider (Sprint), but the cell phone itself is small, slim, and can take good deal of abuse.

I'd like an iPhone, but I'm just not sure I'd take proper care of it.
