Really.... from the time I got home at 7pm I spent 5 hours on the phone till 1am trying to get mine activated. Turns out iTunes would refuse to activate it because I had a corporate discount applied to my account. Fine print says that iPhones are not compatible with accounts with corporate discounts. I had to drop the discount in order to activate the phone. That's another $12/mo that I wasn't planning on spending. Oh well. It's a cool phone.

i got it yesterday and it works great with the cars. All i did was turned on the bluetooth on the phone and just searched with the car and boom it paired up and i was good to go. This phone is awsome guys, i had to wait 7 hours in line to get it and it was worth it.

Apple will probably add A2DP in the next generation, however.
even if it did im pretty sure it would not be possible... the bluetooth in our car is not linked to the sound system (from my knowledge)...might also explain why only the driver side speaker is used for calls....

This is a little off topic, but does any one know when the next version of the phone is being released?

that's a tad bit early to be asking that question. I've been reading a ton of negative reviews on cell phone forums now..guess it's over hyped?

iphone seems to be the big thing in the US... lame. You guys need to see what they got in Japan. Make the iphone look like a 486DX while the japan fones are Falcon Northwest MachV's

500-600 bucks... SUCKERS!!!

theres really nothing slow about it. EDGE has about 200kbps speed and it also has WiFi. Now that the phone works, its a complete masterpiece, but it does lack really basic features which is unreasonable in my book (picture msgs, mp3 or custom ringtones, etc.) It is a very slick smartphone none the less.
