How does Verizon have a clue about the multitouch/touchscreen? Have they used an actual iPhone?

I personally think that the battery not being swappable sounds like a big deal, until I realize that I have never needed to swap the batteries in either my phone or iPod.

So I guess all of those "Business People" using Wi-Fi with their laptops this whole time have been doing so with little or no security. Interesting . . . . .

Love seeing the last-minute scrambles by Verizon and Sprint.

More Verizon FUD!

It sounds like Verizon are encouraging people to send text messages
while driving. This seems like a risky thing to do, liability wise.

WOW, Verizon and Sprint are obviously shaking in their boots......

Maybe they should explain how you don't have to worry about security with Verizon because they put crappy proprietary software on their phones. They limit bluetooth functionality, and their "over the air MP3" downloads are $3 a pop.

I just got my new AT&T W810i and my Apple Macbook recognized it, and isync loaded up my contacts, calendar, and retrieved photos without a hitch. I can't believe I've been with Verizon all these years. I even loaded 2 GB worth of music onto my free W810i and I didn't have to buy a PC-Kit like I would have from Verizon. (they don't allow file exchange over bluetooth with their similar phones)

Now I have a free pocket sized phone from AT&T to use on the weekends when I don't feel like luggin' around my iPhone.

I am so excited to be done with Verizon forever. Many of my friends and coworkers are doing the same.

Haha! I love these. As though there isn't going to be a charging accessory out by sometime in July. These things make them sound desperate. I almost wish I was a customer so I could toy with the reps calling in to cancel. I guess that makes me a jerk.

Yes, but we both likely know how to take care of a lithium ion battery. LOTS of people out there still think that they're supposed to use their cell phones or iPods until the battery dies to avoid the battery getting a "memory." Some have even told me that the cell phone store told them to do that!

There's a lot of bad information out there and I imagine we're going to have the iPod battery effect all over again in about a year because the Josephine Schmoes of the world abused their batteries.

But a gazillion accessories designed for iPod that use AA, AAA, or Li-ion batteries to extend battery life. They're clearly scrambling to find nits to pick, especially now that the announced plans are extremely competitive.
