"also i dont know if this would happen
but whos to say that apple couldnt
screw cingy royally by giving them
exclusive and taking their money on the
first version then making the next
versions with more and better features
in cdma with evdo? kinda like moto did
with the razr? being first rarely means
best; in technology especially. work
the bugs out and improve the phones next
version for us cingy. we appreciate it
very much Wink"

Seriously doubt it. This is Apple, not Moto or Microsoft we are talking about, they don't launch something unless they know its ready to go. I can't think of one Apple product that has had a history of problems in the recent ...
