So, the Apple iPhone.

It looked pretty cool, I admit. I might have bought one. But not now.

• No third party apps. Deal-breaker for that alone. Closed computing is not only uninteresting to me, it's actively repellent.
• Locked to Cingular. Yes, I know the service has to support visual voicemail and other such. I've absolutely zero interest in Cingular. T-Mobile works just fine for me.
• Apparently you can't change the battery, much like the iPod. Is this some weird Apple design philosophy or something?
• It only has 4/8 gigs. For that price, I'd better be getting at least 20 on the low end.
