If this is true then this will be its Achilles heel. Battery technology has not kept up with the with all the functions that are no possible with cell phones. The battery you have on your phone is the same one that was on your Startack from 20 years ago.

🤣

You cats kill me with this dropped calls nonsense. VZ is not getting the phone, suck it up, and stop grovelling. The reverse psychology of trying to downplay and talk down on the phone is silly when you are seriously pissed that it will not be coming to VZ. And also, I will be lining up to pay full retail for the phone when it launches. Its a high end phone, so it is understandable that many will not pay that price but there are plenty of people who cannot wait to get their hands on this thing.

My feelings exactly. Even as good as the iPhone is.

Though I do think Apple is allowed to come out with new phone models that aren't necessarily Cing-exclusive. Only the iPhone is bound by the exclusive contract, haven't heard anything about the agreement covering absolutely everything Apple chooses to make in the phone space (like the iPod, there should be more models eventually). Guess we'll see.

On a side note: I saw the whole Macworld keynote, and when Stan Sigman came onstage, he wasn't so good at the 'public speaking thing'. He's got a pretty bad drawl, and he went on and on for a long time, much longer than...
