Cingular coverage absolutely sucks in Los Angeles and in SF's east Bay (Berkeley, Oakland neighborhoods). And this is such a well known fact, Tmobile has a gigantic billboard on Hollywood Blvd. pretty much attesting to this fact. Although the iPhone is probably going to be wonderful, it is surprising that Apple with such a reliably stellar interaction design team would have potentially ruined what could have been a fantastic thing. Maybe Cingular will finally get their S*&_t together, though. It’s too bad the deal on the iPhone is with Cingular.

A new phone. Congratulations everybody. Hey – and you can listen to mp3s with it. Great. And even sync it with your computer. Big. What are you people talking about? I want Leopard. Or at least Photoshop running on the fastest Mac ever. Oh – but you can play with Google Maps on your new iPhone in June. Have fun. Wow. A new phone. Congratulations everybody.

The author obviously fails to realize what the iPod and iTunes have really done for Apple, and the quote above shows they completely miss the point. Who ever said that competing with the core of the IT market was even good for Apple? Nicholas said:

Considering the mass amount of people who were anticipating it but also the mass amount of people who were criticize people and say that it wasn't true.
