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

Indeed.

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.

QFT.

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.

realged13 loves playing with their D-key!
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)

word on the street is that in a couple (or few, idk the specifics) years they'll be releasing it for Verizon. 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)
