nice specs...but what's the price going to be? w/ the iphone @ $400 now other makers are going to have to price accordingly i think (granted the iphone isn't a REAL "smartphone" for users in the sense that it can't run apps like WinMo or PalmOS handhelds can)

There is absolutely no reason to draw parallels between iPhone and HP, or any other WinMo device for that matter. For starters, iPhone is not a smartphone; never was and never will be. WinMo has a ton of applications available, many are free. It is not closed to developers, it's easily expandable, it has 3G, it has GPS, it has a replacable battery, and if you pay full price it will be unlocked.

PG is incorrect.
You CAN install 3rd party apps onto an iPhone and a removable battery has pretty much nothing to do with whether a device is a Smartphone or not.
"Never was never will be"? Emotionally invested much?

Please kindly provide the list of usable apps for iPhone. I'll take ten for now, that's not too much to ask, is it? You may feel it's OK to pay Apple $60.00 to replace your phone's battery, smart people do not.
P.S. I am still laughing my ass off at all the fanbois.

You can install 3rd party apps on the iPhone if ...
1) By 3rd party apps, you mean web applications. And by install, you mean use a Safari bookmark to access.
2) You hack the @#$% out of the iPhone
