I think it looks pretty freakin awesome!! I just wish Verizon would get it!! Stinking Cingular always gets the cool phones first!! I am sick of that crap!!!!!!!!

[m.oreilly]

you guys can have your thin phones: after owning a moto razor, and trying to use man size hands with it on a daily basis...this would be the LAST type of phone to get, from a practical, ergonomic kinda view , unless you need your icons to jiggle for ya

[banj0]

It is a touch-screen MO.

Man-size hands? Is that what they tell you bass players to make ya feel better?

[Sphere]

Anyone got a spare one for me? Triple band please, then I can use it here in Europe too...

However, Cisco, the IT giant, owns the rights to "iPhone" and launched an internet telephone product under the brand three weeks ago through its Linksys division. Some commentators speculated that Apple would opt for the PodPhone name to avoid a conflict with Cisco.

Speaking to The Times on Monday at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Charlie Giancarlo, Cisco's head of development, who also runs Linksys, said that the group had rebuffed several approaches from Apple, which had offered to buy the rights to the iPhone name.
Mr Giancarlo said: "The iPhone mark has been ours since 1996. Apple did ask if they could buy it. We didn't want to part from it."

yep, the ladies love 'em...

Are you sure its the Man-Sized hands an not the "Old-Man" Vision?

[bluerip]

Cool!
So mostly for me it still would be used like a nano. If the damned thing rings in my ear during a good podcast it would be annoying. But then again an all-in-one would be cool. I wouldn't be fumbling around looking for where I put the phone. Not even mentioning the net functions. The price must come down. $499.00 is not to my liking.

[VROSA]

$500 is a salty price... but the thing does a good job !

It is a sweet looking phone, but I'm going to have to go with MO on this one, the man sized hands make it hard to work those petite phones, plus I tend to drop my phone alot (like when I drink ), and I can find something way better to break for $500.

+1 on that buddy

[bluerip]

Yeah good thinking. The way phones get dropped, banged, and lost - cheap is better. I couldn't stand it is that happened with my mp3 playing, online, $500.00 phone. I'd cry too much. Nope can't do it.
