With what other MP3 player are u comparing it with? Are u comparing it with ur comp speaker? Or ur headphone(Headphone are almost always better than earphone)?

Pricy? Look at how thin it is. Look at the UI friendly os. Compare with other MP3 player. Imagine how much time u save by easily syncing ur iPod, compare with how ALL of Creative's MP3 player sync. WMP11, yucks *vomits*

I can easily judge that u have never use a Mac in real life. Probably don't bother to.

How many percentage of the world's computer users are high-end gamers? Less than 20%. Most people play Flash and arcade games, Mac can do those. Ask any girl what type of games they play. HL2? Generals? CS? Nope.

Quantity doesn't mean quality. I would rather have 1 great software than have to install 1000 bad, crippled software with me n ending up with a crash-prone OS. Feel free to go to Download.com and waste ur time downloading 100 software just to find out that all of them suck.

If Apple has lost the PC-Mac war, then why is Apple still alive and kicking Microsoft's balls? No one is lost until they got bought by others or go bankcrupt.

Windows support apps? LOL, this is really funny. Are u saying that Windows win in the who-creates-more-problem-viruses-crashes contest? If so, i think Apple is glad that they lost the battle. It's amazing how Microsoft single-handedly create a billions dollar worth antivirus and security economy. Linux, Unix and even OS X COMBINED don't even have enough power to do that.
Zune was dead before he was born. The real iPod Killer? iPhone, duh
That's only for the US, not for the rest of the world. These are normal things in the US.
DiGi will innovate anything to survive against the 2 giants. And Maxis n Celcom will retaliate. Why would anyone want to flash it to WM5? The selling point is the OS, not really the hardware.
I don't think u can put screen protector, i think.
Yeah, similar but sad, crippled, badly designed product. This thing is at least 1 years more advanced than anything in market. In US, they need to go through FCC approval which took a few months. BTW, iPhone is not 100% done yet. Expect more software when it is released.
I don't think it's that much. Double price? $999? Who would buy such thing? Most likely around $599 for the 4GB one.

Not everyone uses GPS. It should be coming but dude, this is the first version, what do u expect? With 4GB of flash, why they hell would anyone want memory cards that will make it thicker? And when Apple say that it's a 2MP, it is one. No upscaling.

The Safari is a full web browser. Chances are that it can play Java/Flash games. There's plenty of stuff that u mentioned, but how many of those cellphones does everything good. I've tried those high-end phones n their UI is hard to use, their feature is confusing. Don't judge how good a camera is by the megapixel hype. Cause my 3MP Canon can beat a hell lot of 5MP cameras. Uuu, look, i got a Nokia with Carl-Zeiss lens. Bullshit, for all u know they just sign agreement to use Carl-Zeiss name. Show me some photos, then decide. I don't blindly eat all those marketing hype after being scammed by Sony E anymore. It's about time someone scare the big players to give something that users want. If they can't even make loading the contacts fast enough, don't bother showing me the music player.

Have fun waiting 3 sec just to load ur contacts.

By 2008, 2nd revision will be out.
Most likely including more features that will appeal to Asian, most likely Japanese. Apple revise their products at least every year. So, if we don't want those imports, wait till the 2nd revision out.

Also, there's some rumors that another smaller version of iPhone is coming. This is almost guaranteed, i guess. But how? Less feature? More expensive?

Clarify how much Mhz it has doesn't prove anything as far as i'm concern.
Different chips has different performance. What if the software is very optimized?
Show me how fast it does stuff or do some intensive stuff, then we compare, ok?
iPhone nano, seems plausible, but it won't be the best seller like iPhone.
OMG, iPhone shuffle, shuffle ur calls, u won't know who picks up the phone, discover new friends or suddenly called ur ex while she's dating with a new bf. Endless social possibilities.
They mentioned OS X probably because it will run on Darwin, the UNIX variant underneath OS X. A stripped down Darwin with a custom interface is what i think. UNIX...*drools* Can hack become Linux.

Number portability should be implemented by then, hopefully...
I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for those. Yeah, it looks almost as cool as iPhone. But when u got it, the OS crash, takes all your mp3 with it, slow as hell, the screen scratches worst than the iPod and probably broken in a few months.
With Apple, the QC is guaranteed.

The price for iPhone compnents is actually just around USD199. So, seeing how Apple is selling it at 599 and now 399, they're making enough money to pay back their research cost. They're tied to AT&T because of the 10% revenue sharing and so they can roll out features like Visual Voicemail. They could have easily not do so, just less $$ for them and since they have no experience, it's a good move. They tried it with Motorola, and now AT&T, soon they might even start becoming a telco themselves

1million iPhones with 10% revenue is like 7 million per month without doing anything. 2 years = 168million. Check ur facts.
