Default iPhone. y/n?

the iPhone is to start shipping next month. anyone anxious to get one? I just read that Apple and Cingular have a 5 year contract. you will only be able to get the phone if you are a Cingular customer. it's also a little pricey...4GB will be $499 and 8Gb will be $599. I don't think you have to be a Mac user to use the iPhone, but for those of us that are Mac users, this phone is going to be awesome.

I will wait til my current contract is up with Cingular in November so I can get some sort of discount and so that most of the bugs are sorted out before I get one.

Well, I have a 30gig iPod Video, which takes care of my music needs. And I have a RAZR which is considered to be the iPod of phones. So an iPhone would be ridiculous for someone like me. I don't really see what the fuss is other than having your mp3s and your phone all in one, but since I'm a chick (or at least I was last time I checked), I can carry both in my purse no problem. Although I'm sure some of the lads here carry some kind of bag

I will never pay that much for a cell phone. I have an iPod. The only feature that would attract me is the internet capability. But I have a laptop. So there.

Doubtful. I would probably break or lose it. I still don't even have an iPod.

No, I still play CDs on my Bose CD player. And the few songs I have downloaded I just play on my laptop. I was never one for walking around listening to music with earphones. But I would like an iPod for the gym to block out the crap music they play.

Dumb question: do ipods have a radio also? It would be a plus if I could listen to baseball games on it.

I don't have an iPod either, I just don't see the point. If I want to listen to music - I blast it in my room

I would love to have one, but I know how I am with electronics. I would freak every time I dropped it (which happens quite often to my current phone).
