yeh, the ibooks feature is one of the things I'd love have access to
but that would mean purchasing an ipad or ipod touch and hoping I
could get wireless access. but its a possibility. like you say its
hard to leave sprint and the unlimited data. take care, Max

I haven't bought the upgrade as my phone runs just fine with the old
Mobile Speak, but if it dies, the HTC Touch Pro 2 will need the
upgrade to be functional, which will cost me another $200. Of
course, if the iPhone never makes it to other carriers, I may just
have to do without one. We get a really great deal with Sprint and
supposedly unlimited data, so it's hard to leave, especially since
the other carriers have decided to implement limits. I have an iPod
Touch, which I love and would like to have an iPad. I'm waiting on
that one though until I see how the upgrade of IOS4 effects the
functionality of the iPod Touch. I can't wait to try iBooks, which
is supposedly going to be available to the iPod Touch.

Hello; that hot spot feature does sound good. My brother says he
wonders how it will end up with sprint offering the hot spot. but
if my math is right, then you have six or seven hundred invested?
to me, that is just not in my budget anytime soon. thanks and good
luck, max

I have an HTC Touch Pro with Sprint. I would love to have an

Mobile Speak, which came out with a paid upgrade of $200 six
months after I paid $300 for the software. The thing I do like
about my HTC Touch Pro is Walking Hot Spot available at Walking
Hot Spot.com. It comes in handy in a pinch when I find myself
somewhere without Wifi. I have run two laptops off of it,
including my Macbook Pro, to get E-mail and do some web surfing.
Only problem is that it runs the battery down pretty quickly.
Guess I'll stick with Sprint for now and see what eventually
happens to the iPHone on other networks in the future.

I think you are right. just look at what happened with the
unlimited data plans on air cards. They sold them and made them
cheap to purchase and then had to discontinue the unlimited and
cap them at 5 gb. but you know wat makes me mad? I'm a sprint
customer. I have unlimited data on my phone that i can't use
because sprint doesn't offer a phone with speach unless i want to
buy one and then pay to put mobile me or something like that on
it. I'm not going to put out 200 for a smart phone and then 500
for the software. the new blackberries with orator are only
available for verizon, and as we all know the iphone is only
available with a t & t. good luck to the iphone users. one
question that may make me at least think about it, do you think i
could manage my website from an iphone if i import the folder to
one? something to think about. thanks again, max

I agree actually with Bryan here. I was in a pool room and
listening to one of my favorite radio networks. it buffered at
16k stereo dial up which sucked. but then again I think of it
like this. some people will still pay 45 a month to use 3 gigs
of data or more. so what at&t has done I think is to entice some
of us to use more bandwidth and if they can pay for it they
will. I prophesy that at&t and verison will get themselves in to
a pickle as the networks degrade even further.
Sorry for presenting both sides of the coin here but that's what
it is.

anything else costs twice the price for half the functionality

You know, I was angry about this. The more I think about it,
though, the more I like it.
Recently, when I travel to any large urban center in the US,
network performance on my phone becomes degraded. Didn't used
to be that way. Has become much worse in the last year or so.
I know that is because, in large part, to all of the bazillion
people on their iPhones. Previously, those people either
didn't care, or didn't know enough, to affectively do anything
on a smartphone that would consume a lot of bandwidth. Now,
anyone can go get a cheap iPhone, and start lapping up all the
bandwidth for $30 per month. You don't need many of those
people in your area before most of the network capacity is gone.
Sure, data will cost a bit more now. I'd like to pay less, but
I can afford to pay more. However, paying more has the added
benefit that most people won't be able to pay more, or at
least will carefully consider what they're doing before they
leave Pandora running on their iPhone all day at their desk,
sucking up all of the capacity in the cell, etc. They'll be
worried about bills now, which means they'll stay off the
network, which means more bandwidth for me.
I've noticed that just about any business that offers all you
can use or all you can eat service starts to quickly drop off
in quality. Think of those web hosting companies that promise
unlimited bandwidth. Sure, the bandwidth for your site is
unlimited, just like the bandwidth for the other thousand
sites that they host are unlimited. The result is that you can
download all you want, at a snail's pace. Who goes to a buffet
restaurant for fine dining? It's better to pay a company a fee
that actually manages to cover the costs for the service that
they provide. If not, well, you descend in to the wonderfully
high quality of unlimited web hosting and buffet dining. I
think that I get more upset with AT&T's network being clogged
than I am about the price. If I can pay more to have it work
well, then sign me up.

right on scott the huge wait time is absolutely staggering,

Man you guys really cant' wait another week or so? How
do you
know what your downloading has not been hacked and has
malicious
code installed. Of course at the very least, do you not
respect
the fact that these downloads are illegal or certainly
are not in
line with Apples policy. I can't wait either, but these
are not
legitimate sources and you do not know what your getting.
