- Looks tough, but the price is right :) If only I'd done this research before I had jury duty. I guess I could stockpile for my next trip on a plane or to the DMV. Boredom. There's an app...
- I highly recommend <a href="http://drawesome.ngmoco.com/">Dr. Awesome.</a> Other ngmoco games are also well done and engaging, but Dr. Awesome got its hooks in deepest. :-)
- Wow, I'm late to the iPhone for games party. Those sound fun. See my update about Fieldrunners if you want another fun one.
- Star Defense, Lux DLX (Risk), Arcade Bowl (Skeeball) :)
- Thanks for the kind words. From the beginning, we've wanted to open source Connect, and several people (customers) have expressed interest. The problem is that I'm not sure how to do that...

I’m sure many of you out there got iPhones over the Holidays, just like David did. Rich finally joined the iranks, but he went the iPod touch route, an interesting choice, all the cool features, minus the uncool AT&T and the molasses-in- January slow Edge network.

I'm discovering lots of cool GTD techniques too now that I have the Touch... I'll blog about that soon.

General "One handedness" -- you can do almost everything with one hand on a Treo, not sure that would change with the current form-factor of the iPhone however which appears to need 2 hands for almost everything.
3G - Wifi is great when free and available but not if you're in the car (as the passenger of course), out walking around in a park etc.
A2DP (for BT Stereo Headsets) -- great while exercising, but bad for Apple silhouette marketing/branding which relies on those little white cords connecting your device to your ears.
Streaming Audio (goes hand in hand with the above) -- internet radio is great, get local stations from anywhere or pure internet radio for free
3rd party apps (hopefully the SDK will take care of this), like Slingbox, TomTom, a SplashID equivalent for storing passwords etc.)
Ability to cut and paste..
there are others but those are probably the most important to me...and might be to others as well, once you get a taste of them it's hard to give them up :)

This is what I have been waiting for since I saw my first WAP phone in 1999 in the UK and said - that's not the internet.

The iPhone changed all that for me with how it handles Interwebs. Plus, deploying web apps as apps (e.g. Google Maps) turns out to be a killer feature (sorry Johan, killer attitude) for mobile.
Scotty's coming from a different angle, and I've heard a fair amount of noise about feature/feature comparisons. Let's face facts, Apple can't get everything right, so there are bound to be gaps.

thanks for the mention, it is highly appreciated!
And yes, Jajah allows you to make VoIP calls with your iPhone or iPod touch without installing any software or the need of jailbreaking it. Simply point your iPhone's or iPod touch's browser to http://iphone.jajah.com and place ultra low cost international VoIP calls. Wi-fi is not necessary, an EDGE connection is totally fine.

great you are mentioning SyncML as a need for the iPhone. If you want to try a well-designed (not humble) iPhone SyncML open source client, I would suggest you take a look at this: http://www.funambol.com/solutions/iphone.php.

So, the Map app will know your location with a decent accuracy, making it much more powerful for directions. That's probably the top feature I've seen for 1.1.3.
I haven't heard other rumors about GPS on the iPhone, but I suspect it will be soon, i.e. within the next year.

You might also want to check out SyncJe for iPhone at http://nexthaus.com/iphone
Not free, but syncs Contacts, Cal, Notes, and has Automatic Sync.
The other clients listed sync only contacts, or only cal, etc.
Please let me know if there are any questions,
