"I think it is cool, but it will give people more reason to be playing with their phones while driving. Interaction person to person is disappearing day by day causing social problems in society. Technology is great, but more emphasis needs to be towards medical not towards how many things a phone do while your bored because you don’t want face to face interaction."
-- Rich A., Utah

"Although this phone has its drawbacks (3G-less, built-in-battery, price, etc.), its impact will be obvious when its 'revolutionary' features become industry standards."
-- Brian M., Ohio

"Eventually. The same marketing plan Steve Jobs used for the iPod is being used on the iPhone. It's best to wait for future generation phones that will have probably a longer battery life and maybe 3G technology. And just like the iPod, a smaller and cheaper one will come out soon. If this happens, you will see more choices in service providers."
-- Don S., Arizona

Apple’s iPhone could change everything in the handheld market, but even competitors are likely to ride the tidal wave of enthusiasm for the device. The lines of customers clamoring to buy the iPhone this Friday will be “staggering,” predicts Kevin O’Marah, an analyst at AMR Research. But he expects Apple’s rivals to respond quickly, which could reinvigorate the telecommunications industry.
