| | | See, a card slot solves all that. Cards are cheap and plentiful.

Picking up my Treo Pro tomorrow (replacing my 800w). iPhone has a ways to go before I even consider it - starting with multiple carriers. Right now the iPhone offers nothing for my needs that I don't already have; it is however missing a few things. |

Especially SDHC cards, 16GB for $30, 32GB's are still a bit more expensive though ($100).

| | | I'll have to check, but most phones won't accept cards over 16gb, so that probably won't matter for awhile.

| | | Is that true by technical issues, or is that simply because there were no 32gb cards out when they created the spec?

| | | I think it's some technical thing... but like I said, I'd have to check. I know my Q said 16gb was the limit and that they weren't available at the time of the IPO. My new one has a 16gb limit as well... at least according to the docs.

| | | the iPhone wouldn't be so fail if it would get off that god awful AT & T network. How long is it going to take for them to allow different providers without having to unlock it? |

| | | I have no problems with ATT... loads of 3G coverage where I live and travel. But of course your mileage will vary (I'm in NC, SC, GA, MD, GA, VA, WV) |

I did hear this from a friend that works at Verizon, but whether or not this is legit or not is still up in the air. |

| | | there's just no way anyone would have that information at this time. no one but jobs and ATT's execs (if even they have considered such an occasion) |  | |
