the iphone is a gimmick device imo. The only functionality it has above and beyond what you kind find in any other basic phone is 4gigs of storage, and being able to pinch pictures.

And a user interface that is way ahead of any phone out there and actual web pages (sure non-flash and non-java, but those crappy mobile web pages weren't doing java or flash either) and an amazing media player, but yea, other than that it's crap.

If you have an Apple store around you should go look at it before dumping on it.

as an iPod it's great, as a phone it's behind the times.

I mean, if Apple can talk everyone into paying twice what they should for an iPod with basic phone features, then good for them.

You can get many phones now that have full featured web browsers (plus normal phone features like MMS) for much less than an iPhone.

I'll probably wait until they put the same UI on a new line of iPods before I bother upgrading (and i'm a huge tech buff).
