What would lead anyone to believe that future models will have a removable battery? iPods don't. The sealed case is one of Mac's core industrial design principles.

However, on an iPod, it's almost, *almost*, excusable but only because Apple tends to treat their customers well. After all, they did eventually replace everybody's battery after the iPod battery lawsuit and ensuing debacle. My concern is that because this is a cell phone, purchased through a carrier, I could see them being less inclined to do anything about it. If they leave it to Cingular, you're going to be S.O.L. if the battery fails. You'll be stuck with a device that cost you 4 large, locked into a two year contract, and some 3rd party company will want 120 bucks to replace a battery that costs about $6 to make.]]>Feb 23rd 2007 5:40PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/02/23/3g-iphone-on-track-for-early-08/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/02/23/3g-iphone-on-track-for-early-08/
Gee...some people are never pleased. I'll take this any day...now if it weren't for that astronomical price :(...Oh well, I guess I'll just have to placate myself with the BB Pearl till then.]]>Feb 23rd 2007 6:30PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/02/23/3g-iphone-on-track-for-early-08/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/02/23/3g-iphone-on-track-for-early-08/
Yeah your right we can't be pleased. Why even bother realeasing such a "revolutionary" device when it's not even up to speed, so to speak. ]]>Feb 23rd 2007 11:45PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/02/23/3g-iphone-on-track-for-early-08/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/02/23/3g-iphone-on-track-for-early-08/Feb 24th 2007 7:33AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/02/23/3g-iphone-on-track-for-early-08/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/02/23/3g-iphone-on-track-for-early-08/that's not at all true. i can browse engadget just fine on my edge equipped blackberry. Engadget's code doesn't work very well on a blackberry html browser (the links between article header/body/comments are not correctly sourced - which is Engadget's problem, not blackberry's) but it works fine and loads quickly enough.

Could it be faster with HSDPA? sure, but its not at all necessary.

I bought it, because I told myself I could get a Blackjack and an 80gig iPod for the same price as the iPhone. More storage for music, more software flexibility. Here's why I sold the Blackjack....

I was browsing some website, and as fast as it was loading, I still had to scroll from left to right continuously to view the whole page. A full zoom-out feature built into Safari on the iPhone is gonna be GREAT. I was also using Google Maps alot in the past week on the Blackjack (for work), and I thought about how awesome it would be to just tap my finger on the map to zoom into where I was going. The multi-touch interface and LARGE screen are gonna make the iPhone a revolutionary mobile device. (IMHO)
