Whenthe iphone came out people went crazy. i mean not only to buy the thing but actually trying to activate it using the i tunes website. Activations were a nightmare for the first week. Now the phone is cheaper than most of it competing pda, smartphones, and blackberry devices. When this phone comes out peopel are going to go absolutely insane. If Blackberry is smart they will produce this phone before the 3 g model I phone hits the marlet and flood the market with this phone. If not the rumored iphone 3 g model is going to horribly hurt the market. I personally think that if the consumer is smart they will wait untill both phones hit the stores and see which one has the best gadgets and is more friendly to the pocket book. Also hopefully this phone will be able to be used on an employee rate plan where the iphone is not. I actually work in tech support for one of the major wireless carriers.
