So, here's a funny one. The iPhone, for someone like me, is a complete 100%
non starter. Like probably 95% of corporate America I work in an Exchange/Outlook
shop, and Apple goes out of their way to antagonize us, presumably to keep
their gear 'cool.' If there isn't a mail client that will talk to an Exchange
server as well as a Blackberry does then I can't use it. However, a friend
of mine last night showed me his iPod Touch. I'm not sure how far I'd have
to go back to think of a device with a 'HOLY SHIT' factor like that thing.
The Wi-Fi works reasonably well, the display is out of this world, and the
interface is, indeed, stupid cool. The lack of Ogg/FLAC/Linux support means
I still can't buy one, but I have to admit my debit card was SERIOUSLY itching
after playing with it for a while. The original iPods were just cute MP3
players, or not even that, they were cute lo-fi DRM'd music players. The
Touch, though, is something else entirely.
