The Countdown Begins!

Three more days to the launch of the iPhone.

Reports of campers waiting in line outsite AT&T's stores are surfacing. When most people would refuse to buy a $500 phone, there are core fans who would never think twice just to buy it. Undoubtedly it has a lot of features.

But it has some downsides too. Apparently, it can't send MMS (durn). And it doesn't play videos on the browser. You can't set an MP3 as a ringtone. Flash support is iffy And no java too. -sigh- And, it requires a two year commitment to AT&T. If you don't like AT&T, you're out of luck.

Guess I'll wait for the perfect Internet tablet some more.

Will these 'cons' be big enough to make the iphone a flop? Only time will tell.
