    In its first full quarter of sales, the iPhone has already climbed past
    Microsoft¹s entire lineup of Windows Mobile smartphones in North
    America, according to figures compiled by Canalys and published by
    Symbian.

    That puts the iPhone ahead of smartphones running Symbian, Linux, and
    the Palm OS, but behind the first place RIM BlackBerry. The figures mesh
    with retail sales data already reported by NPD, which similarly
    described the size of the US market with a 27% chunk bit out by Apple¹s
    iPhone.

    Full details and a nice chart can be located here:

    Enjoy!

    The iPhone is freakishly well done, if you don't have one yet, you will
    in a matter of time.

    Congrats to Apple for finally setting the Cell World in the correct
    direction. Cell companies are notorious for foisting poor quality
    handset on their users, so it's good to see Apple has stepped in to up
    the bar by 200+ levels.

    Apple will be the largest handset maker within 5 years... you can bank
    on it. All because the poor management that currently exists within the
    Cell Industry. Zero competition within the cell industry has made an
    easy entry point for Apple to exploit.

    Another thing is that GSM adoption is expanding in North, Central and
    South America which will continue the success of the GSM format Apple
    choose to support over CDMA. Verizon is begining to test converting
    their phone system to GSM as already noted.

    IMHO if you put big bucks in a CDMA phone you better figure it will be
    worth nothing in a few years. That should be no problem for most
    people who throw them away anyway as most are pieces of junk compared
    to the iPhone.

    That's funny- Microsoft doesn't have a lineup of phones. In fact,
    Microsoft doesn't sell a single phone.

    Oxtard and his sockpuppets need to get an education.

    I'd say this is not as simple - either way.

    Now, even though UTRAN LTE (which is what's we're talking about here) is
    more tightly coupled (and developed by) with 3GPP (than 3GPP2), it is
    planned to also offer interworking between LTE (in addition to GSM and
    WCDMA) and 3GPP2 (CDMA) systems. I'd guess this is important to say, for
    example VZW (Verizon Wireless).

    For more information on UTRAN LTE , one place to start could be the 3GPP
    pages, see http://www.3gpp.org/Highlights/LTE/LTE.htm

    If Verizon had the iPhone they would cripple it so much it wouldn't be
    the success it is.

    How much more crippled could it be and still be worth buying?

    Look at the Voyager for your answer. People buy that because they
    can't get an iPhone from Verizon. If you happen to live in the vast
    areas of this country where you can't even get an EVDO signal from
    Verizon you will find all their phones are crippled by having to use
    the butt ugly slow Verizon 1 RX. Network.

    The Voyager is crippled even more since it can not connect to WIFI in
    these areas. This is a real bummer for students who usually are
    covered by WIFI on most college campuses.

    How true. They'd probably remove all bluetooth support except headset
    profile, disallow it's use as a cellular modem, and prevent buying music
    via iTunes via cellular...

    ....Hey! Wait a minute,...
