@Gwen, right. Apple gives you the update for free.

If you have already purchased an iphone and Apple comes out with new software to correct any issues, will that be avaiable without having to purchase a new phone?

Even my puny little LG Vu has push email. My Blackberry died on me. I miss it so much!

Doug,

I have to say, I don’t see any of the points of what you are saying. I have seen those same points made at other sites on the net, but let’s take a moment to think about it.

“there is weak email and calandar support because of the horrible screen based keyboard… the interface is cluttered … apple gave fluff but not much else…”

What? I do think there are some flaws in the phone, and areas for improvement, but I really don’t know what you are talking about above.

Name something you’d like to do with the calandar or email that you can’t. I certainly haven’t found much that’s lacking. The on screen keyboard, after using it for a few months now, is great. Certainly on-par with the usability of my old blackberry’s keyboard. And I certainly don’t see how the interface is “cluttered,” especially compared to either Blackberry or Windows Mobile.

Really, I have no problem with criticism of the device, but your post doesn’t seem to be based on any sort of reality.

The biggest problem I see is that Apple has failed to create a truly valid business environment. There is not tasks list – a must for many business users. There is weak email and calendar support because of the horrible screen based keyboard. It is way too small, under sensitive and poorly designed. The interface is cluttered and not customizable. Apple gave a lot of fluff, but little else.

How do we know if the IMAPS is enabled on my exchange server or not? What port does it run on?

What do you think of the keyboard of iphone, though? If you’re used to using the tactile berry keypads, how did you make the adjustment to the iphone keypad. Was it hard? Can you type fast, using two fingers, or really just one? Do you make typing mistakes all the time?

To date, I have been able to cause any Exchange 2003 server to crash as long as I have a valid user. We had a ticket open with MS, they didn’t care. If you use the List command with wildcards, then after 30 minutes to two hours the Exchange server goes out to lunch, requiring a reboot.
