I agree with John. Apple has done it again with this phone. Think "ipod". :)
Apple has always been my favorite company (since I started with my Apple
][+ with 48k of RAM). They spend more money on R&D than any other
company out there, and it's finally starting to pay off. Eventually
everything they do gets copied by everyone else... and this phone will
be no different. It will just take everyone else 2 years to catch up.

We'll have to wait and see. I think that this will mostly be a niche

non ipod devices that do a nicer job and cost far less money if the

When the cell phone companies set the phones up to use their cell
infrastructure OR a local wifi connection and are able to drop their
costs because of it, I think it'll take off right nicely. Till then,
lots of press cause all of the press folks love Apple eh? grin

How do you feel the rise of the i-phone (either cisco or apple) will
affect your business? Will this be positive because it drives more
customers onto your wi-fi networks with their dual mode phone? Or, will
it be negative as more devices become standardized on cellular
carrier's
networks? Will they get into the wi-fi space? Should we be preparing
for a cingular nodes on every available street level piece of vertical
realestate?
