Utter crap !!!
Does nothing more than most phones do, but relies on a screen that willo be damaged and buggered beyond use in months.
Touchscreen phones are useless - I had the first, the motorola for 3 and it was awful when you actually wanted to use it properly.
Wow - it does internet - so did my communicator 5 years ago
Wow - it does music - so did my communicator 5 years ago
Wow - it does photos - so did my communicator 5 years ago
Most phones do all the above, its just another gimmic from Apple for the style over content obsessed cliches that increasingly inhabit our planet these days !!!
None of this is aimed at you Jim btw - anyone who has seen you knows that you dont do style over content !!!

Things like this just get my goat, some sales turd making out like they have invented a new form of communication !!!

I wouldnt put anything quite as strongly as Bladey here but I have to agree, yeah it looks nice, yeah it plays music, yeah it doesnt have any buttons.
BUT....
Not much memory on it, Ipods are cheaper nowadays with more memory.
That screen isnt going to last long without getting scratched !!
I think its just too late, Sony and Nokia both have music phones that play well and some have memory slots that let you put as much memory as the Iphone on for a heck of a lot less.
Pricing doesnt sound too good for it either.
Think its a bit too much about style than anything.

jim - can get them when they are introduced/released to retail. As apple always releases new products and then strangles the supply chain so they get the initial early adopters.
They will be overpriced and a bit gimmicky though.
We will look to stock them on
