Two days left before the iPhone could drop at any time!!
June is ALLLLMOST here and that means the iPhone could drop at any time once it rolls into June. The target seems to be June 11th to the 20th give or take a day but the official word from Apple and at&t (The New Cingular and The Old AT&T ™ http://discussworldissues.com/forums...ies/laugh1.gif ) is still just “June.”
I’ve got my funds saved up and I’ll start daily calling and dropping by my Cingular store come the 1st to make sure if they start an unofficial pre-order / wait list that I’m near the top. The manager already has said that he knows his store will get a handful of iPhones but I know that it’s the only store in this area and he did say others have been asking about it! I seriously can not wait to get my hands on this thing! It’ll be extra great for me since it’ll be my first camera phone (been waiting to upgrade for like five years, blah blah blah) as well as my first “smart phone” so I know I’ll love it. I’m really hoping having OS X on there will let more stuff work with it, maybe not 3rd party apps but other hardware, such as BlueTooth GPS units talking to Google Maps, etc. Though, there is also the slight chance the phone will ship with GPS built in, I know not everything was done back when it was announced and new features have and will continue to be rolled out.
It’s also been rumored that the data plan is going to be $30, which isn't too bad since it’s unlimited, and I expect to use a lot of data with this phone. However, something I didn’t think about has also been rumored, that MIGHT include EDGE and WiFi, that would totally rock if it gave access to at&t’s WiFi network also, but I’m not holding my breath.
I still can’t make up my mind though about buying the 4Gig unit or the 8Gig unit. Double the space for a $100 more, but I really want to buy the headset and the headset PLUS $100 more might be a bit much. I also plan on keeping my Video iPod (30Gig) and really 1 to 2 Gigs of Loveline can keep me set for almost a month at a time. I figure the rest should be enough for a handful of TV shows or a movie or two and maybe a couple CD’s that I listen to the most.
I guess I’ll see when the numbers come together on the price of the headset and monthly plans...
I’ll make sure to post FROM it once I get it! Oh, and I’m also looking forward to having push email from my Gmail account (Via Yahoo) and being able to use the WebUI from uTorrent anywhere I am to add torrents so they’ll be ready when I get home! http://discussworldissues.com/forums...ies/smile1.gif
