Wasn't the first shipment completely sold out over the first weekend? 146,000 sold doesn't sound so bad if only 150,000 were available. We need more info.

Until the new site comes up, I can not do it. The links breaks between here and PhoneDifferent.Interesting that you moved it here rather than to the dedicated iPhone forum at Phone Different.
I actually posted the same news at PD a couple of hours before the first post in this thread, but I guess it went pretty much unnoticed![]()
I don't recall the hype when a Treo or HTC device was released. Were there commercials on every channel every 10 minutes? News stories? Articles?The gloating over this news is pretty funny. How many treo 180s or 300s were sold on the first few months? How many of HTC`s earliest devices were sold in the first few weeks?![]()
Wouldn`t HTC and palm have LOVED to have been able to boast such numbers with their initial offerings?
Oh, I certainly think so.
150,000 to 200,000 sold over the first few weeks? Not bad at all for apple`s first step into the cellphone arena - with their expensive HIGH END model no less. Wait until the low to mid level iphone nanos arrive at $199 to $299 price tags. Folks will be dumping their razors for these babies like crazy.
Please. Let the apple haters blow their hot air. Give it some time and apple will relandscape the mobile industry for them.
The Apple rumor mill is like no other. There wont be an iPhone nano.Wait until the low to mid level iphone nanos arrive at $199 to $299 price tags. Folks will be dumping their razors for these babies like crazy.

You can modify your rate plan (up/down) without a new contract. But going down you expunge your saved up rollover minutes.When I had Cingular for a year I always changed plans without penalty, but now I hear that they operate the same. Verizon allows you to add features without penalty, i.e. data, sms, mms. But thats it. If you are modifying your plan, that to me is changing your contract and they have every right to extend it two years.
They wanted verizon and verizon said no. That is why they went with ATT
Sprint does the same.
As I posted in the other thread, it was sold out in all 1800 AT&T stores and 24 of the 164 Apple stores by the end of Saturday (some, IIRC, sold out Friday night) and was sold out everywhere by Thursday:Wasn't the first shipment completely sold out over the first weekend? 146,000 sold doesn't sound so bad if only 150,000 were available.
Agreed.We need more info.
Thanks for the info.Until the new site comes up, I can not do it. The links breaks between here and PhoneDifferent.
It will be addressed in the future.
Exactly how would you change the WM or PalmOs UI without impacting functionality?
Surur
for WM:
Get rid of the start menu, get rid of the toolbars on top and bottom of sreen, make it easy to switch fonts (like the blackberry).
I'd guess you'd have a home screen and a dedicated hard button to get to it, the way Palm OS, S60 and iPhone do it. That's pretty top of my WM UI wish list.Why would you get rid of the start menu? How would you get to your programs, then? Don't tell me that everyone would have to use one of those programs where it places a bunch of icons on your Today screen, because not everyone likes those, me included.
