iPhone

It will sell out, because Apple has that kind of power. It isn't a bad product, although it isn't as cutting edge as Apple would have everyone believe. The main innovations are the UI and the multi-touch screen. Most other features are ho-hum, and I suspect iPhone 2 will be a much more complete device (GPS, 3.2 or 5mp camera, TV-out jack, 3G) that are lacking in the current version.

I also understand that the sim card can not be removed. This makes the phone useless if you want to go to Europe. I also understand that the battery has to be recharged. There is no replacement battery for the phone. I wonder what happens if you have a bad battery.

It is reported that owners will be able to send in their phones to Apple for a replacement phone FOR A FEE.

I guess I am not the cool type. I conducted a very unscientific poll @ work and only 1 in about 15 was interested in the iPhone. The one person interested was turned off by the non-replaceable battery. I am not sure he even considered the full price-tag, minimum ~ $60 / month for 24 months for the plan.
