They have an exclusive contract with Cingular for the first 2 years so there is no possibility of the phone on any networks until June of 2009

That sucks. I just switched from cingular and the SOBs are trying to charge me an early termination fee and the final month's service charge because I changed service (the company I work for is now paying my cell phone bill) 5 days before the contract was up. I'm never going back to those jerks, so it looks like it'll be a couple of years before I get one. If then. :bandage:

I'm sure there will be a zillion questions, so here is zillion +1 Is there any mention of PDA type apps? I currently use a Treo 650 but would give it to my wife if this phone also is a PDA.

is it just me or was this a BAD BAD move on apples part? the iphone only working with cingular for atleast the first two years. to only support one provider in my opinion is dumb.
agreed.. they should just sell it outright from the apple store and let the buyers put their sim card in it..

Cingular probably paid apple a lot of money for the exclusive rights to it, and they wouldn't demand to cripple the phone like verizon would. Sales will still be very high for a first generation specialty product, and apple will be doing very well with the money from cingular.
I guess that's just how it's done in the cell phone world. Most phones are with only 1 provider for a year or 2. And even then (I'm thinking of the motorola v60 series and razr), when they are with multiple carriers, some carrier's versions are better than the other. I think Verizon had the razr 1st, but when cingular got it, verizon got an updated version with more bells&whistles than cingular's version. they may be even now...I'm talking a few years ago.
It's been my experience that they are all pretty much equal...you trade one problem for another. Who's signal is better just depends on where you are.
Now, with iPhone...that is one sleek interface. I'm really impressed with Apple. They know how to design a GUI. Not sure I like their new name - Apple, Inc. Now its too much like the record label. All their products are still computers or computer software/peripherals, even the phone. It's a specialized computer, but it's still a computer.
