The iPhone looks like a nice peice of equipment, but the biggest beef
I have with it is a lack
of an SDK for 3rd party companies, freeware developers, etc. to write
software on it that runs
on the "bare metal" of the phone. This hardware has a hell of a lot of
potential, but if Apple decides
"no SDK", then it's little more than a pretty device, and at the price
it's being sold at, I expect more
than a souped up V-cast style "teenybopper" phone. Personaly, I
wouldn't buy it until an SDK is
released for it.

Also, it appears "Meg" is Astroturfing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astroturfing
which is bound to piss
people off.
