The experience of a single user is hardly authoritative- ask John

And the most recently released independent study of dropped calls rated
them higher than Cingular (the self -professed leader). The legacy
Cingular network came in fifth, I believe.

How is stating the obvious an insult? The phone will do nothing useful
on the network that any one of about a dozen current production models
and a couple of dozen retired production models of various manufacturers
already do. And any one of those phones can be had for under $200, with
a few available for a little more than $100. Hell, the Razr has the
network functionality of your beloved iPhone. And based on the publicly
acknowledged supply issues Apple is experiencing to manufacture the
phone, the chances of getting a defective phone will be extremely high.

No thanks, I'll pass- I'd rather own a phone that will work and not pay
a price reserved for the clueless.
