Yep!  That pretty much sums it up.  

Look forward to wasting even more time on my iPhone.  ;)

Keynote does take ages, and they didn't do anything but iphone this time.

So it wasn't relevant to me yet. If apple make a pda phone with a decent keyboard, then will they get my attention. Until then I will be using my psion 5mx and super thin sony mp3 phone.

Let me know when they make a PDA phone with a decent keyboard, an OS that doesn't require signed apps, and isn't tied to a single carrier. Actually, I'd prefer CDMA, on Sprint, because I get nice data rates there.

I think my Blackberry qualifies.  Although the iPhone is worth having around for the browser alone.  By far, the best mobile browser available.

And I'm having to deal with Blazer. Blech.

(Surprisingly, I actually find that my Palm Centro, despite having a TINY chiclet keyboard, actually is pretty nice to type on! The tactile feedback is as accurate as a Model M. No, seriously. And, it's got the most wide open OS out of all of them, and right now, is on the three biggest US carriers, in both CDMA and GSM.)

I'm a recovering Palm bigot myself.   ;)

I'm just BECOMING one!

Love the device, like the OS, wish it just had a decent web browser.

(And Opera Mini doesn't count. Opera Mini's great, but IBM WebSphere sucks horribly, and seeing as WebSphere is the JVM...)
