AT&T (US), O2(UK) etc...the sooner that Apple get out of bed with these networks the better, sell the iphone unlocked from Apple Stores at a reasonable price and let us decide which network to use. Or at the very least use at a minimum 2 networks in each country to create competition, the current one network per country just promotes poor service for the consumer, hope these exclusive deals end soon!
54.99 pounds! No reviews yet, wonder why. It might make more sense to allow people to purchase the framework and one country then allow further countries to be purchased using the in app purchase system, this would allow the initial cost to be more acceptable. The majority of people are unlikely to require every country in europe.

It might seem expensive but their Windows mobile or symbian products are more expensive, about 60 pounds for one region (ie UK/Ireland) with europe for around 90 pounds, so maybe this is good value. Although one thing they do offer is a free trial for win/symbian, something that iphone users do not get.

Agree with earlier comments on this company, duped mobile file pro customers into thinking they were purchasing an application to view and edit files but renamed the original app and released another to do this. Some dishonest marketing me thinks. Just look at the review page for quicksheet on iTunes to judge the way they treat their customers. Burnt once will wait for another company to bring out a better app.
LTE roll outfit consumer use is at least 2 years away, more likely will be a bump in HSPA chipset to get up to 7Mbps with implemented HSUPA (uplink), iPhone 3G still only using HSDPA (downlink). A memory increase almost certain to 32G, might also get camera improvement but do not get hung up on pixel count as the lens and sensor mean more for photo quality, difficult to achieve and keep phone design slim. The current video camera for video links are pretty poor and not worth the effort. Would welcome a better casing on the back. Most tech bumps come at expense of battery life and to improve this means bigger body.
Waiting for selectable update option! Why do we have to do it in one batch purchase, too much expense. Please deliver an option Apple.
21 more countries ready to add to the pile of below par 3G performance complaints, I thought apple would have fixed this before getting themselves deeper into this mess..
there's not even a 3G highway up and running in India]

It appears that the 3G iPhone does not come with a 3G chipset so they should be OK, Apple have promised to deliver one soon......:)
Must be getting a bit sensitive as Apple have removed the discussion from their support site, censorship will not fix the issue! They must be worried about the bad PR spreading around the web which continue to spread until they admit that they have a problem and fix it...A premium product should not start to break up after a couple of week when you are locked into a long contract deal....Even basic Nokia/Motorola phones can be dropped/kicked about without much damage....
3 year contracts! For once the UK appears to have a good deal compared to other parts of the world. O2 UK are even going to offer Pay as you go phones with no contract (& 6 months unlimited data thrown in).....

Assume that the "black" market for iphones in Canada will grow.
Check this out for an in depth summary of where the BBC are with iphone/touch support, interesting article..

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
