    no.


    I came to that conclusion. I think that this thing isnt that practical unless you are an Apple groupie

    I have Apple computer an Iphone, Ipod, this is one item I would pass on. You should wait for the second generation and let them work the bugs out.

    To me, this thing looks pointless.

    Why not just get a Mac book?

    No flash drive, you can't run two applications at once, the internet goes in and out, it feels awkward in your hand, it costs a lot for not much space...

    Yea it's totally with it :lol: .

    I am not sure bout the price, they are selling very fast, but maybe 64 g for the same price.

    I think I read somewhere that they already sold a million copies, that's a lot in a month or so, I agree with people about the macbook, much more useful for a few hundred more and probably more durable. I do however like the iphone.

    Never buy First Generation ANYTHING... especially from Apple. Future versions will be better and cheaper.
    I smile, but who am I kidding...

    I honestly wanted one but now that iphone 4 is coming out Id rather have that. Its funny how something smaller is better than its bigger version.

    It's not as funny as you may think.

    Definitely no. Doesn't offer much if you already own an iPhone.

    All this just proves what my husband alleges... I don't listen.

    If nothing else, you stimulated the economy. Product is completely worthless in my equally worthless opinion.

    Wait for them to come out with a smaller version, one that is small enough to fit in your pocket and make phone calls.

    Or wait for one to come out that has a keyboard and mouse attached that folds together, that also has more functions and is more durable.

    Oh wait, maybe apple sells products like these already.
