Or maybe people are realizing what crappy photos the iPhone takes!

Funny. "Booyah" in Dutch means "so what, who cares?"

The user stories here have caused my boyfriend to think twice about getting an iPhone and made me nervous about how I carry mine around outside. I never knew there WERE moisture sensors.
We live in a cold rainy country and people routinely expose their phones to mist and light rain. I will certainly be more careful from now on. I routinely go running with my iPhone, sometimes in the rain. I've been lucky so far I guess.

Dave, to chime in with so many others: Apple approves those workout apps. If we can't use a workout app with an iPhone without running the risk of ruining it, that's just design error.

It's very disappointing that you can only buy it if you have a U.S. based credit card/apple account. What's up with THAT?

Why oh why on why not the Netherlands? Does Steve not like us or something?

I wanna also punch Steve in the face. What, we in the Netherlands are not worthy? AUSTRIA before the Netherlands? You must be kidding. They will certainly lose market share now here in NL. Forget Apple, I'm sticking with SonyEricsson or HTC!

Because NO ONE in the US would know what GMT is!! :-)

They are available all over the Netherlands. Buy one with a contract at Tele-world.nl even! They have a shop on the Kinkerstraat, Amsterdam. Pick one up, already hacked, with a 1 year contract for between 350-450 euros.
But still, I'm waiting for the next version, hopefully this summer.

Why US residents only???

Face it, "Europe" means UK, France and Germany as far as Apple is concerned. Those of us living in other European countries will just have to continue with the torrents. I don't even want to TALK about an iPhone for the rest of us....
