“The professional critics have offered their iPhone opinions, giving Apple’s new cellphone mostly a thumbs up,” Jim Hopkins reports for USA Today.
“Now it’s time for thousands of consumers to weigh in after they bought iPhones this weekend. The gadget went on sale starting Friday night at nearly 2,000 Apple and AT&T stores after six months of anticipation,” Hopkins reports.
“USA Today heard from more than 350 people who said they bought an iPhone. Based on their first weekend’s experience, virtually all of them said they’d do it again,” Hopkins reports.

The WOW starts now, or perhaps Friday evening at 6:00 pm.
So…
Can the iPhone properly display this page…

Ok! Ok!
Enough with the teasing!
Send some over to Australia!
And it’s only Version 1.0! Just wait until Leopard comes out and the phone hits Canada and Europe!
Jobs was right when he said (paraphrase): “It’s better than they even think it is”.
People are now bringing the iPhone to their workplace. The Second Wave is going to gargantuan!
The iPhone works great with MDN’s page. The narrow center column is perfect.
Typed on my iPhone.
I’m at work right now and of all the people I have shown it to, including managers with buying power, said they were going to get one. Nuf said. With the ability to work with Exchange Server right around the corner, this should help propel it into the enterprise workplace. WooHoo!
Please guys…
Please check and see if iPhone displays QTVR content like this….

Thanks!
They are loving the iPhone on CNBC.
Whats going on with Enderle??? saw this qoute in an article!!
Rob Enderle, an industry analyst with The Enderle Group, said the activation problems probably won’t hurt iPhone sales.
“This kind of thing is not unusual when you have this number of people trying to buy something all at once,” Enderle said.
Depending on how the companies handle customer’s complaints, it could in fact help, he said. If customers feel the company has treated them well, they are more likely to buy and recommend its products in the future.
“It doesn’t matter whether your product breaks or not,” Enderle said. “It matters how well you treat your customers.”
Developing products you never even thought you needed until you bought one and used it.
The next product from Apple inc. will meet that requirement and more…
Don’t forget, in the process leading to this launch, Leopard was delayed because Vista turned out to be a dump squib, a new MBP with LED monitor was launched, upgrades to the MBP lines, Developer release of a near complete Leopard, fixing of minor bugs in relation to Java, release of safari for the PC and bug fixing, Major games designers pledging to develope games for the iphone, ipod and OSX, release of itunes + DRM free, itunes for colleges and students, YouTube on OSX for iphone and Videopod, YouTube converted to H.264, upgrades to the pro softwares……………..
Meantime in Redmond…….oh yes…..ermmmm…….a new Zune?
I am having my business partner in Hawaii pick up an 8 gIg iPhone for me and set up an AT&T account for me, just so I have one to use when I go there for business meetings. It is the closest I will get to use one until it hits Australia. UNLESS, there are roalming agreements from AT&T to Optus or some other carrier here. Then – do I have an Aussie Workaround! Not cheap but I who cares! HAVING the first or at least one of the first iPhones in Oz would be a kick!!!

C’mon Apple get with the program.
What the HELL IS HAPPENING to this site???
For the past few weeks, MDN sometimes takes for EVER to fully resolve. I mean a long, L-O-N-G-G-G-G-G-G time. What’s up with that? Anybody else?
I’m using Comcast hi-speed in New England (western MASS).

Site is loading instantly for me right now on a Qwest DSL connection, might be your local provider.
It’s funny.. here in Europe everyone is disappointed, while all of you seem to be impressed?..
Different standards?
No QTVR it appears Fig.
iMat,
Yes, different standards.

As in “We Have Them in Our Grubby Little Hands” and we can actually try them out, and you don’t and can’t.
KenC, give up your “clever” little FUD campaign and go back to Engadget with the rest of the Microdouches.
I heard you, Dude, this site is dog slow at times
Absolutely, iMat.
Different standards, different experience. First hand knowlege.
