This post and poll is designed to test the sentiment that people have towards this device. Obviously, this device will be the future for many companies and it will go way beyond Apple. There will be the chip companies and others who will produce parts for the Iphone, etc.
The majority of people on this site seem like educated and well-to-do individuals who might have an interest in this phone.
Personally speaking, I like the IPhone, however, I would have to pass for the following reasons:
- Cingular service- I remember the times when I had to walk outside of my house to get a signal with Cingular. Consumer Reports verifies my horrors with Cingular by stating they are the worst service one can have. My phone is not just a toy, its an emergency lifeline. I wouldnt feel safe on a long drive without Verizon. Verizon worked for me when I was out in Louisiana swamp areas on a vacation. Verizon worked for my friend who lives and works in Alaska. He always gets a signal no matter where he goes. Cingular, on the other hand, just gave me problems and dropped calls.
- $600 price tag- All cell phones ultimately get dropped on the ground, misplaced or worn out. When I leave my cell phone someplace, I always get it back. Thats because cellphones have no worth to anyone, however, the IPhone will get snatched up in a second. Clicking a $600 phone in the wrong areas will make you stand out as a target. If you travel on business to areas you dont know, you will make yourself a target by clicking away on the device.
