Some of my confusion stems from the fact that EDGE is a bit slowish, in my opinion, compared to some of the newer tech (HSDPA), so I can't tell if you're happy that it has EDGE at all, or making fun of the lack of newer tech.
Disallowing unsigned code is a HUGE deal for me. I want to be able to download whatever I want and use it. There's a lot of smaller developers that put out good applications.

I think it was Cingular that pushed the no unsigned code thing...though it makes Apple's support costs lower too, but the use of EDGE as opposed to ANYTHING less than 5 years old....seems downright dumb. As someone indicated, that might have been their only clear upgrade path to hold onto.
Anyway..yeah...me tired. sorry. *grins*.

I have yet to be able to actually TRY one, however. I've gone to two Cingular stores to check it out, and neither had a fully working model available to play with.

So, it's time to upgrade soon. Cingular doesn't have HSDPA in my area yet, and won't for about another three months. So that'll keep me from upgrading for a little bit longer. Hopefully my headphone jack will last that long.

Mine's been dropped a few times. The case is starting to separate but it still works like there's nothing wrong with it. Good little gadget. *pats treo*
