    Guess which AK...

    Guess which AK is currently sitting in a line outside an AT&T store camping for his chance to buy an iPhone?

    You could use the 2 grand and buy Apple stock and then buy the Iphone in 6 months with the dividends. I hope his Iphone has a lo-jack in it. Thanks for the post Bri, made me laugh..

    It cost something less than 2 grand, Rocks. Activation (for me anyway) was a bitch, but now that that's over, it's freakin' great.

    Here's some photos I took yesterday.

    I got to play with one yesterday. The phone itself is cool as hell, but I would worry about scratches, etc on the face. Hopefully it's more durable than it looks. If they release it without the phone aspects as just an iPod - I will get one.

    But, if you've experienced data speeds on Sprint or Verizon like I have, using the AT&T Edge system is going to feel like going from FIOS fiber back to 14.4 baud modem. It's S-L-O-W. Hence, another reason besides the spotty AT&T network coverage in our region for "me" not to buy one. That and the $600 could go towards a nice Power Mac.

    Makes me wonder why people would want to be paying test subjects of the first generation of the phone.

    The face is tempered glass. It doesn't scratch. Check the stress test linked on blog in this post.

    They don't make Power Macs anymore, Hylander. That's what you get for living in the past.

    They gave EDGE a goose last week. I get over 200kbps now on it. Fine for email and brief surfing sessions (find directions, movie times, etc.) Wireless is plenty fast for me, and widely available for when I want to do heavier surfing. (Like at work, in one of those god-awful all-day departmental meetings I get stuck in.)
