I've been holding off for a good PDA/Data/Phone device for over a year. Now, I really want the iPhone, but I haven't heard (or read) anything about using it as a bluetooth modem. As long as this is a usable feature, count me in for a June purchase.
 
In a heartbeat!

in a heartbeat for me! Awesome technology and I am on the phone a ton 6,000 min avg/mo plus email. i am curious about how the touch screen deactivates so my pocket won't make a call...

On the phone 3 1/2 hours a day? Wow! I thought I was heavy with about 1,500 minutes a month.
 
I'd buy one in a second... if I had the money. I'm graduating from high school in June, so maybe I'll get one as a graduation present.
 
I'll absolutely be getting one. As my transition to Mac continues, extending this to a device I carry with my everywhere, every day, makes perfect sense. Not to mention that a) it's gorgeous, b) the implementation of the display looks to be amazing and c) having Safari in one's pocket is just cool.
 
I don't get this whole ultra-skinny thing. Why does it have to be just 11.6mm?! I'd much rather something slightly thicker that gives me 60GB storage. 8Gigs is pathetic, especially when dealing with video.
 
question:

do you think it's possible for us to purchase the bluetooth headset separately? i think that thing looks very nice. very small and simple.
 
Bwahahaha....no.

Its nice, but its also nice and expensive too. Eventually I might, if it came down another $200. In the meantime I can live with my crappy razr phone and ipod. I'm glad they came out with it, I think its the right direction for them to head in, but I wont be able to afford one for awhile.
 
I am buying it as an unlocked device when it comes to Europe. If its locked then definitely not...

The iPhone is the best gadget I have ever seen!
 
I am...but it looks like it could be 12 months before I actually have it. I do wonder if Apple will bump up the GBs or announce GPS before it actually comes out.
 
I've never been a 1st-generation kinda guy. I'll wait until the price comes down and the storage size goes up.

In a couple years time it'll be cheaper, better, possibly unlocked to other carriers/systems, and most of the bugs will be shaken out of it. The winner? Me. As Archie Bunker used to say, "Patience is a virgin." :D
 
Such technology and inventiveness demands our investment!

Have you looked at it in detail on the Apple.com web site it's just amazing!

Can't wait for it to come to the UK - don't know what carrier it will be with though.:)
 
For that all in one factor i am sold.

I love the fact that i will be able to carry-my music-and some videos
theres so much you can do with 8gbs steve made it seem like 8gbs was alot
but overall i love the iPhones sleek design.

It looks like i found a replacement for my treo 680
