I thought the bluetooth headset was going to be included with iphone as well...I am pretty sure Jobs specified this in his keynote. Does anyone know anything?
I watched the keynote more than once. He said something to the effect that "here are some accessories we'll be shipping." And then he mentioned the wired earbuds and the bluetooth. Accessories sounds like something extra, not something that ships in the box. But I can't see them not shipping the wired headphones with the microphone.
The bluetooth headset will almost certainly NOT be included.
Wired headphone with mic, can cost as little as $20. But, the cheapest wireless versions I've seen start well upwards of $50, and that's for the cheap ones. The better models are upwards of $125.
So, I can see the wired version being free, but not the wireless model.
What exactly does a high end headset have that a cheap one lacks? nothing in my tests...if you have connectivity problems, it will be with the crappy cingular/att network long before it is from "inferior" bluetooth
Anyone else notice how manufactured that image is? You see one cable leading up to one earbud, and then the other one is just kindof hanging out there.
It looks like the angle and position of the other bud on the left can reasonably obscure the other cord. What it can't obscure is the fact that the ear buds aren't plugged in.
I see a comment that looks to be un-informed (No sign of joking in it) and try to add to the discussion by pointing out facts.
Maybe because it was all part of the thread-within-a-thread about the spatial/temporal thing... Try to keep up, here. Sheesh. By the way, this is a joke.

I made an observation and made a comment on it that was not rude or even condescending but rather was based on facts, and then I get responded to like I am a child.
I responded to a comment towards mine proposing that basically I am an idiot for not reading their mind and ONLY READING WHAT THEY WROTE.
Then you decide to jump in with your far superior intellect by be being condescending to me also.
Say whatever you great intellectual minds can conjure up to berate me, I am done with you children.

The art of forum humor... Not for everyone, I never saw a personal attack.
*sheesh* Hopefully this is a temporal, err that is temporary, issue as this thread was quite funny.

it would make the prices a bit less painful.
the only free-bee add-in that would lessen the pain of a $500 handset is an hour with a hooker...or maybe $250 off a macbook

even if they included an iTunes gift card... 50 bucks to put a movie or two, couple of tv shows and some songs on your phone?
I suspect the two-hour closing is to allow AT&T employees ample time to roll around naked in a sea of iPhones.
Umm..will those ones be discounted then?
I wonder if this is nixing my camp outside the store idea?
This is why Steve invented Spaces. For just such a possibility.
Steve didn't invent spaces, he just allowed multiple desktops onto OSX which has been there for years with ever other *nix OS out there.
This my sole reason for upgrading to Leopard and I say it is about freaking time, why did it take so long.
BTW the iPhone will ship with earbuds.
There is no way Mr. Jobs is going to ship an iPod without earbuds.
The earbuds in the photo with probably be the ones shipping with the iPhone and the Bluetooth headset will be available for additional cost.
Thanks, that's what I thought.

Huh?

If you mean camping outside before the store opens in the AM, then yes.

There are third party utilities that give Tiger virtual desktop capabilities. Have you tried them?

Normally, I'd say that it would be one more thing to strip out of the package, but because of how iconic it is, I would agree.

Once again, these comments seem to go off target unless accompanied by an emoticon... It was a joke.

Yeah Ummm OK
I am going to know you are joking because...
How do I know you know about multiple desktops?

You bet!

100% true. sarcasm [all humor even] is lost here w/o 739 bytes of animated gif.
