Hi from my new iphone!

This thing is pretty neat, but does take some getting used to.

How did I know you'd have one of those already? I'll wait at least until Sprint has them on their network.

I hope Verizon or Sprint does get these phones. Coverage seems to suck. I`m actually on through the WiFi feature.

I don't need a hypePhone. There are better phones out there for less.

I like what I have seen so far but will the screen get scratched-up and nasty with time?

That seems to be a problem with a lot of things these days. They look great in a display case and in advertisements, but they don't fare too well in the real world. I put my I Pod in a silicone cover to protect it from scratches and getting banged around. Unfortunately, it won't fit into the dock with this cover on it. I guess the I Phone is essentially the same.

Nope, went to the Apple Store Arlington on my lunch break yesterday and was in and out in five minutes. Syncs up with the video systems in my 560SEC and SL600 perfectly. I agree it`s hype, but so is most of the stuff sold to consumers these days. I`m having fun with it so far.

You don`t need to put it in the dock to sync. Just take the cable out of the dock and hook it directly to the ipod. In fact, in all the years I`ve owned ipods, I don`t think I`ve ever used the dock.

No, I have a speaker system for my I Pod that has a dock. If you put the I Pod in the dock, the remote control works. If you plug in with the cable, the remote won't work.
