Yes, I think I am destined to wait. Either till the iPhone Dev Team unlocks it or till 2010 when the ATT contract expires. @LivePaola… yikes. Yes, I think I am destined to wait.

Not a great deal one way or the other. You can buy an unlocked iPhone in Italy, but at an extortionary price (499 and 569 Eur… yes, Eur!) Not a great deal one way or the other.

I use the products because they are the best designed products out there.

Why not just wait for an open platform (say Android or Linux)? That way you're not tied to a monopolistic entity that can disable or screw-up your phone at will. You don't have to approach every "upgrade" or "bug fix" (let's face it that's what most of these upgrades are- security fixes) with trepidation? By the time a stable, established fix is out there, Android should have gone Gold Apple doesn’t really sound like a company that gives a crap about its consumers now, does it?
