I might actually pay $500 for this. It's going to be exclusive to Cingular, can anyone say if that's a good or bad thing?

they didn't announce a widescreen ipod, correct? just that the iphone will have itunes built in and function just like an ipod (albeit w/8GB memory).

one thing I found interesting is this phone is actually running OSX.

Turnip - just thought I heard on CNBC that AAPL announced wireless, widescreen Ipod. Googling doesn't show official announcement, but I think this product has been in the works for a while over there. They filed for a proximity sensor patent in June, and I always thought it was for both the widescreen Ipod and Iphone.

LFS,

"It's going to be exclusive to Cingular, can anyone say if that's a good or bad thing?"

I've been on Cingular for a while now and coverage has been great in SF, NYC, and Houston.

Whats wrong with touchscreen?

Nothing is wrong with it. You also won't actually touch the screen due to the embedded proximity sensor technology, and apparently, it will ignore unintended touches.

BT - oh maybe I misunderstood the touch screen patent they were going for. I always assumed that they were using the same technology in their widescreen Ipod - which of course, if you actually touch the screen is retarded.

Can anyone confirm / deny / explain the multi-touch / proximity sensor technology in this thing?

LFS - I've been on Cingular for a while in LA, it's good.
