iPhone

everyone is talking about about the iPhone. I was on Tom's Blog:

http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2007/06/20/iphone-youtube-deal-bunch-of-hype/

which was picked up by several other blogs. now that i got my hands on a iPhone yesterday i could not understand what the hype is about. Its a touch screen iPod and also does some phone stuff. And?
On the phone part: got disconnected several times while on a call, but cant blame apple for that, ATT network cant handle the new iPhone subscribers?

anyways, APPLE should have stuck with their usual launch strategy: element of surprise, launch the iPhone and for that matter Apple TV when they were ready and make a big splash. Now with months of hype, none of the iPhone features seem that breakthrough.

its pretty bad for email, could not get a sentence in without multiple backspace uses. Does not sync Calendar and Contacts with Exchange, which means i cant use it. So am going back to Blackjack (3G, Keypad, Exchange that works) :-)

if i do switch back to iPhone, you'll read it here.
