Disappointment with IPOD phone

I am totally surprised with this phone
The first 15 minutes I was frustrated, but couldn't have been more pleased to find excellent phone support by IPhone. They assisted me in connecting my Yahoo email account as well as sync iTunes. The maps feature is phenomenal. It integrates phone contacts, the internet, and directions in an exceptional way. The ability to have weather information at a fingertip in the various cities my children live or where we were planning vacation was a nice addition. Stock data was also easily accessed.
A big disappointment is that I live in a city that depends on AT&T's edge network for internet connectivity. It makes dial-up look like broadband. Once you get over the Edge and access the internet at higher speeds, the IPhone will both amaze and disappoint. It will amaze by the clarity of the print and the ability to zoom in or out. Its capabilities make you want to do more and eventually you will be wishing the Edge was the only limitation. The screen size and the ineffectiveness of the electronic keyboard will continually frustrate. Unless you are familiar with a web page, zooming in on a page will make you feel like you are in the middle of the forest looking for the edges. Zooming out, makes the print too small.
Email is a key capability I wanted to incorporate into my device and for $500 plus I expected it would. Enter the keyboard and email becomes a chore. Apple recognizes this limitation and introduced a unique solution with its electronic keyboard. Unfortunately, when compared to other built in keyboard devices which have limitations as well, Apple opted for unique rather good or better.
As you use the IPhone multiple functions, you will also be disappointed in the products battery life. You will need to plan your day; keep the phone plugged in while at the office (car) or by evening, you'll wonder if you'll be connected.
In the end, I was trying to combine email, telephone, data organization and music. Most important to me is telephone, data organization and email with music trailing. The IPhone is an OK phone, a great music box and an inadequate data organizer or conduit for email.
Silly Phone

The iPhone has got to be the biggest piece of junk I have ever seen in my life. It doesn't even do half of the functions that people said it would. It is ridiculously slow, which apple said would be fast, and it is way too expensive for the amount of stuff it can do. If you haven't bought it, consider yourself smart.

This phone is really fresh. I would say it is better than any phone I have ever seen.
