iPhone

Well, I waited in line for over 5 hours on Friday for the iPhone.  I am an Apple fan, but not to the point where I do not see any faults and drink the Steve Jobs coolaid strait.  

First impressions:
It feels like a product from the future.  It really does.  It does the whole multimedia/internet/phone in your pocket thing.  Like the origional os back in 84', I think this is going to have a huge impact on future technology gadgets and computers.  The touch screen works well, and like many Apple products, it is real fun to use. 

My wife jokes that this thing is a chick magnet...everyone who sees you using it wants to try it.  Everyone has the same reaction..."I am getting one..."  We were at a minor league baseball game the other day the woman next to me asked if she could touch it.  I smiled and said only if it is ok with me wife....  She did not get it.

Apple stock: buy.
At&t stock: buy.

Apple seems poised to once again change the rules, and drag the entire industry into a new and better way of doing things.  As for faults, I just don't see them.  Edge is much faster than I thought, the keyboard is easy to use, and everything "just works."

Most of all....it is fun to use.  But isn't that what Apple always seems to pull out of it's Willy Wonka factory of delights?
