nice!

How can you claim to be "ripped off?"

You know what the product is, what it does, and what the price is. If to you, the value you get from the phone is equal or greater to the price charged for it, you buy it. If it doesn't deliver what you consider to be fair value for the price, don't buy it!

Getting "ripped off" would be getting home, opening the box, and finding out it's full of gravel, and not the phone you understood to be in there.

If you can't afford it, or the price is higher than you're willing to pay, just say that, don't bitch at Apple for "ripping you off."

I'm really hoping we see this in the US soon as well... I've tried the T-Mobile MDA and just couldn't get used to the keyboard and the "slide" form-factor. I want something that has the solid feel of my Blackberry but WM5, I think this thing may be the answer!

I love free!

I received my MacBook Pro this weekend, and I am having the hissing issue as well as the white stripe at the bottom of the LCD. The hissing seems to somehow be related to the display, as it gets louder and softer with brightness, and goes away completely if I dim the display to 'off'.
