    Oh im excited now :D I guess 6 months after the release they are gonna open the Iphone So that it can be used on any company...I think they are just doing it With cingular first because it will be a benifit to cingular because a lot of people wouldnt want to wait 6 months so they would just transfer to cingular

    Hasn't it always been Apple Computer? The Mac is just a brand name for their line of computers. They used to just be Apples. And Steve didn't have to rename it, he was there when they named it originally, I believe after the Beatles' record label Apple Corps.

    I'm a huge Apple nerd :D

    yea it looks awesome sucks that it isn't coming to the UK till autumn though :X and can't buy it from the US because it's on cingular.

    Did you see the way you can resize pics with your fingers on the screen and stuff, that looks cool.
