be in the control of the Hitler-like phone companies. I know, only one phone company has charge of it at the moment- and that is even worse!

It just doesn't seem fair. Everyone should have an opportunity to own one of these, but I fear the phone oligopolies will once again put it to the average citizen as they currently do.

Why do they even refer to them as "minutes" anyway? I hate the phone companies. The entire arrangement between Apple and AT&T smacks of 'Little red riding hood and the big bad wolf'.

Which is the wolf, AT&T? That would be a change of thought as most people think Apple is wearing the pants in this venture and AT&T is falling all over themselves and paying Apple loads of money just to have it on their network!

If you're mad at AT&T, be mad at Apple too for all the built-in obsolescence like no 3G, no MMS, no iTunes direct download and no IM, plus no third party apps that make true "smartphones" so versatile and great!
