Hell, the use of Bluetooth devices.. mainly headsets has only just become apparant here in North America.
This is a CONSUMER device.. the cutting edge is in the marketing and Hype. Consumers will lap up anything they are given, even if there is a better alternative!! ie. Honda Cars, "Palm Pilots" :devilboy:

Honda Cars and PalmPilots? hmmmm.....seems to me consumers are pretty wise there. Hondas are great and with Toyota are killing detroit with their superior products. Palm was popular when it was good, and consumers are voting with their feet now.
maybe the devil icon was an indication you are pulling my leg. but with some people here actually thinking xp is better than osx, which is fine, but is like saying you prefer macdonalds over a gourmet meal at a high end restaurant, i just don't know anymore.
people are missing the point, they are quoting pixels etc. apple will provide a flexible device capable of doing a lot. a built in 8 gb and osx. but it's the smooth interface and operability that will matter. easy to use. powerful. efficient. the pretty icons are nice but they are not the main thing. and apple will blow wm5 out of the water in usability. or force it to innovate. it's hard to see how wm5, palm, whatever that other system we don't see in north america, and blackberry are all going to survive. blackberry will cause it's lean and mean and efficient. i don't know about wm5. much will depend on the big lumbering machine and their commitment.
also, what's being forgotten here is this is running OSX. (i hope.) if that is true then the implications i don't think have quite sunk in yet.
