The iPhone is a nice web browser on Wi-Fi, and music player. Not such a
great world phone since you can't use prepaid SIM cards. Not a great
phone for the U.S. since Cingular's network is so poor compared to
Verizon's. Not a good phone for using the data over AT&T due to the slow
speed.

Now that it's been hacked to at least allow the use of AT&T SIM cards
other than the iPhone SIM card, at least you can use it without
subscribing to the $60 iPhone plans, or you can use it just as a Wi-Fi
web browser and iPod.
