I have to say I believe what many are saying about the edge and using this phone to surf and download videos.....I currently have an Ipaq and treo which are sluggish when downloading certian content and faster with others. Im hoping the iphones hardware will do a better job at this.

I read the one review that someone placed here earlier stating the screen is so small surfing the internet is cumbersome....I strongly agree with this statement! If you have ever tried to surf much with a pocket pc/palm you know what Im talking about. The screens are so small the print is difficult to read when a full page is loaded. You have pinch in to view (very cool by the way) but then zooming cuts everything off. Just to read one article your most likely going to pan this way and that...It gets very old after awhile trust me...So if your thinking about doing lots of surfing on this device you will be dissappointed I think. However if you grabbing quick info like movie times and Hotmail then it should be just fine without having 3G. 3G will work better with youtube and such

Im just hoping the other features work seamlessly. Most of the devices on the market have not proven this. Many of them have to be reset daily or crash when doing several things.
