The only question that anyone wants answered...

Will it be as crap as the computers?

It does look pretty sweet but it's going to be so horrifically expensive... $600 with a 2-year contract! :!:

That's gonna work out at ?400 over here plus another ?30 per month. Nice phone yeah but still, sod that for a game of soldiers!

it runs OS X

yeah its a pricey beast but hey its a smartphone, top of the range data communicator and ipod all in one, with NO reduced functionality... think of the price you would pay for an 8GB nano!!

Prob not available in Europe till end of the year though, sigh :(

I must admit that macs HAVE grown on me since I started using the G4's in the art department in uni, but still... way to over priced for what your getting.

The only thing I can say for mac's that microsoft are only looking into now is the exceptional layout and templates that they put into all of their programs and software making it easy enough to use and fantastic to look at.

Still wouldn't fork out for one though due to lack of "internet" software for them.

It's a slow process folks, but welcome to the new iPod.
For PC users, it's going to be an uphill struggle.
As with all things Mac, it's going to be mighty expensive.
It's not going to be over here for another year yet, so we've got time to laugh at all the people who buy things first then complain about the bugs :)
