Here is everything you need to know about the new iPhone before you purchase one. They go on sale this Friday and people are already camping out for them. Most of the reviews have been very positive execpt they bash the AT&T network for coverage. I have been an AT&T/Cingular customer since 2000 and don't have any problems with my service. You may be wondering if I will be buying one of these phones, well the answer is no. I have no plans on buying the iPhone anytime soon. A couple of reasons, one its still too damn expensive. 2nd, no corporate email support. 3rd, the iPhone is not running on the 3G network the new highspeed that most of the new AT&T phones run on. I will wait until next year to see if there is a price break and all the features/bugs worked out. Rumors are that if Apple wants to sell the phone in Europe it will have to support the 3G network. Maybe the next revision will have this and by then corporate email will have a home as well. I am still planning on buying a Samsung Blackjack as my next phone.
