@ Wildcatherder Quote: Valid for all debts public and private It says so on our money. I had an idiot in an art store in San Francisco try to refuse to sell me a poster for cash, insisting on a credit card. When I offered to come back with the…

Having read through the unsealed documents today, it's clear that Gawker/Gizmoder are in big, big trouble. The timing of their publishing of subsequent tear-down photos (after having Steve Jobs claim the phone as belonging to Apple), the facts surro…

Umm, Applebaum... have you heard about this magical new device called a headset with microphone? You can actually get these wireless now, with Bluetooth. I've even heard that a wired version comes with every iPhone, free! Quote: Scenario One: …

This article desperately needs re-editing. It makes no sense as currently formatted. Gene can be illogical at times, but not as crazy as this presentation in AI makes it seem. And "blossoming" is not a verb as it's (mis)used here.

One big problem is that the data plan is REQUIRED with the iPhone, where it is NOT required with a Blackberry, for example, on AT&T. Why does this matter? 1. Because at $30 per month, per phone, is not worth it for many customers who alre…

Why is it that AT&T has the highest prices IN THE WORLD for the iPhone plans? We keep reading about the prices in France, Germany, U.K., Switzerland, etc., etc. -- and there are always options for lower-cost plans, or plans that cost the same b…

The new family plan rates make no sense for families with 2 phones. You'd be better off getting two individual accounts. On the low-end plans, it would cost you $10 more per month ($5 more per phone), but you'd be getting 200 additional minutes for …

Comparing the U.S. and German rate plans for the iPhone is a little bit like comparing apples to oranges. Why? Don't forget that in Germany, all incoming calls are FREE. In the U.S., all incoming calls count as airtime minutes. So, a $30 voice plan…

Big deal. Some PayPal features (shipping, for example) already don't work right in Safari. They never have made any effort to support Safari anyway.

Just wanted to say thanks to winterspan and some of the others who have posted truly useful, informative stuff here. One of the best AppleInsider discussions I've ever seen. Thanks folks.
