This is obviously the buzz that has occupied most the bits on the wire and water-cooler conversations recently. While there have been many opinions about it - for me, it is always functionality over form. The way I dress sums that statement up well. The fact (right now) that is doest support 3G is not important to me (yet) BUT the biggest obstacle is that I cannot believe their batter if NOT removable. Every PDA/phone I buy, the first accessories I buy are the extra cells - and I always asked for the higher capacity ones. I do use my PDA well. Having ONE cell only, since it is not removable, is a NO-NO for me. However, I dont know if all is cast in stone yet. This is the era of Web 2.0 and you, as the Time Magazine Person of the Year 2006 , are very powerful in casting your vote in earth-shattering decisions. That said, I have always said I take my hats off to the marketing geniuses of the iPods. Now, I am hearing the captain over the airwaves: " Please turn off your iPods, mobile phones and personal computers... " 6 months down the road ? " Please turn off your iPods. Period " Nuff said.
