I have at&t i haven't actually used MY phone yet since it's still locked (waiting on the unlock code), I have used my friends a bit though and it is incredibly nice.

Well as long as it doesn't come out on verizon then you can just unlock it and use it where you want to. I am guessing it will be tmobile and not at&t since the iphone is so exclusive to at&t.

I might be stupid, but I see NOTHING about a phone on that page. All I see is a design study and a lot of information on a processor. What am I missing?

Once again, that's a design study and those specs are for their chip. Not a phone. So... yup.

From everything i read its a prototype that is just waiting for a phone company to take over. Says whoever is going to take the idea over will out do iphones.

Work blocks Flash videos so I'm sure you can see my confusion. Not to mention that nowhere on the linked page does it talk about a phone. It talks about the chip. A prototype that shows off their chip is close enough to a design study for me.

I just watched the linked video, which I can see. No sounds, but it does look pretty slick.

Looks killer but I predict it will have trouble just like vista did. Lot easier to be the knock off than the original. iPhone FTW

dude no joke. that is going to be a true multimedia smart phone like we've never seen before. Thank you iphone for taking the first step in the movement.. now step aside until you're willing to give a bit of freedom to the users. The fact that you have to jailbreak a phone to have any "uniqueness" is lame. Android is all about individuality.. not that i make a statement with a phone.. it's just principle.

Well if it is running android it will lack issues.. everything has its problems but android is constantly being bettered by the community and the android team. There is progression you can count on with Android.. while Apple knows people want MMS messaging and video capability.. it has been how many years now and still neither of those exist unless you hack it? Lame.

I owned the iphone and loved it over all.. but little big things like that annoyed the crap out of me.
