3G iPhone Going Into Production In May

A few folks noted the rumor mill churning over 3G iPhones coming soon. Apparently they might be going into production as early as May, and announced somewhere in the 2nd quarter. Hopefully they manage to stick a GPS and another 16 gigs of memory in this one.

    (ie: I don't want a separate cell phone, PDA, MP3 player, GPS and batman utility belt. Especially NOT when the technology is available to easily have all 4 in a single device. And the only thing stopping it from happening is BS marketing idiots.)

    The iPhone could be equipped with a perpetual motion machine and a love ray that instantly seduces any woman it is aimed at, and some people would still complain that it doesn't support MMS, and thus they would rather have their free flip phone.

    Unlikely. But if the free flip phones had a perpetual motion machine and a love ray that instantly seduces any woman it is aimed at, some people would still rather have their expensive Iphone, and that's still all we'd hear about on Slashdot.

    But since neither is true, that's irrelevant.

    (Can you give me some unique features of the Iphone - features that you bought it for - or can you only give me things which are as real as perpetual motion machines?)
