DECS writes "Despite CNET's wild claims, Roughly Drafted is reporting that Apple's market position and recent performance show the company has the ability, capacity, and interest in shaking up the mobile phone industry. Something that service providers, manufacturers, and consumers desperately need."

If the phone is affordable, and for me, that means > $200 [...] Unfortunately, I think the price probably won't break $300
Why unfortunately? It's in your price range because last time I looked 300 is greater than 200.
Apple is dangerous by Yvanhoe · 2006-12-25 22:03 · Score: 2, Funny

Because they make cool, functionnal, well designed devices and don't care about things like software patents and DRMs.
Be careful, be very careful...

She's a Heek (hot geek). A creature of fable, second only to the unicorn in it's rarity. Capable of singing a siren song that tends to compel creatures from basements and dark places. If you see one, an easy test would be to gather your courage, scramble your Rubiks and hand it to her. If she completes it in under a minute, propose to her. If she accepts, you may also be a Heek. Congratulations!
If she refuses, she's just a nice looking lesbian.

n fact, I think at the moment there is no such thing as an MP3 player that would meet the requirements of a discriminating audiophile,

True. Gold is very heavy, and carrying it around is a pain. Plus it's easy to get the electrons flowing the wrong way down your cables when you're unplugging them and replugging them all the time. Not to mention oxygen gets in every time you unplug.
