The phone that everyone has been waiting for is finally out. Well, mostly everyone…I don’t much care if I get it or not. That’s right…The iPhone is out. They are available at all Apple stores in the United States. However, there are some restrictions. First and foremost, Apple is only allowing two per person to be purchased. Furthermore, AT&T who happens to be selling the iPhone as well is only allowing ONE per person. I suppose there were just not enough of them for those people that buy ten or fifteen at a time and then resell them on e-bay for a profit.

So, how do you get one is my big question. Go to your apple store, make sure you have five hundred or six hundreds dollars in cash, depending on if you want the 4GB or the 8GB and buy one. The phone is internet ready and offers a very nice screen for those to look at. The thing that made me so interested is there are no buttons. Every phone I have ever seen up until now has always had some sort of a keypad. This one doesn’t. It’s just one block (maybe that’s not the right word) and you push the screen, at least, that’s what it appears like.

It’s anticipated that the iPhone will be available in Q4 for those in Europe and in 2008 for those in Mexico and Asia. So, for right now, Americans are most likely to enjoy the phone for quite a while. At five hundred dollars a piece, you must love your cell phone if you’re going to buy one. However, it is a nice looking phone and if Apple put as much care into making their cell phone as they did for making their iPods and computers, it’ll be a very durable, very wise investment. Enjoy the phone, but good luck with all those lines in front of the store.

It takes a lot out of me to write these blog posts. Buy me a beer to cool me off!
