Yeah if that thing costs $130 I'm going to be pi-issed.

I was sort of under the impression that buying the 8GB model would net you a BT headset (ala 80GB iPods used to net you a dock while smaller-capacity ones did not). I guess not.

I can easily see someone spending $1,000 for an 8GB phone, activation fees from AT&T, tax and a Bluetooth headset, a carrying case (if you're squeamish), etc. Which sucks. That's a MacBook right there

By the time I buy (next spring?) that BT headset will be under $100

The MOST expensive bluetooth headset on Amazon has an MSRP of $330! Ouch! that's $169 less than a whole iPhone! But there are planet of cheaper ones around $30-$50, and iPhone users can use those too. (However, having tried one and last year and being forced to return it for unacceptable performance, it may be that you get what you pay for. Not all have the same features.)

AppleInsider is high as a kite, calling a $129 BT headset "one of the most expensive on the market". What market, cheapo Korean headsets?

It's expensive, sure, but I really don't know what to say to a consumer who expects Apple to introduce any product in any category and shoot for the low-to-mid price range in that category.

You'll be able to use any other BT headset with iPhone. I don't see a gun to your head making you buy Apple's.

25 accessories, including 12 cases, 4 plastic screen protectors, every bluetooth headseat they already have, and an AT&T branded wiping cloth.

$89 would sound about right. $129 is beyond a joke.

iLounge is listing 45 accessories for the iPhone.

This headphone looks great

and is only $80 from a dealmac sale.

after watching the 20 minute movie, i think that the included wired headphones are perfect. pause, skip songs, answer and hang up. perfect. the only thing i'll be looking to buy w/ the phone is a car charger. another $29 i'm sure, just like every single phone i've bought.

wasn't there some demand for standard charging/synching ports? my slvr uses mini usb - why doesn't everything...?

that the virtual keybord is almost impossible to use, lol yeah right i have seen a beta version, ad trust me if you dont press the keys dead center it wont type it, also edge to be to slow, another laugh, because although iphone does not have the new 3G, it does not really need it yet, because the operating system does much of the work, remember its not goin to be running windows mobile, i can't wait to launch day to see it these bulshit companies are still goin to keep blaiming networks for their poor work
