I don't believe that there is no 3G on the iPhone. That would not make
any sense at all. The pre-show information stated that there would be
two versions, one 3G, one EDGE. Maybe the 3G version is delayed by a few
months so they didn't want to announce it.

It's listed as a GSM device,
so probably only for Cingular for widest customer base.

You're only locked into Cingular if you want a iPhone.
Wait 5 years for the Zune 3, and maybe it'll be close.

It's quad band so in theory you could get it unlocked and use it with
T-Mobile.

Jobs said they developed their new phone with, and for, Cingular which,
he said, is the best carrier with the most subscribers. He said that
Cingular and Apple will continue to work together to innovate with this
phone and other ideas.
He also said that they are changing the name of the company from Apple
Computer to Apple, Inc. because they are no longer just a computer company.

Take a look at http://www.apple.com/iphone/
and tell me what PDA function you think is missing.

True. But it does support 802.11g if you happen to be in range of a wi-fi network.

It runs OSX so whatever PIM functions (or ANY functions really) you could
run on your Mac you could run on this (in theory, we won't know till June I
guess).

This is of course a big coup for Cingular,
and bad news for competing carriers.

The strangest thing is that it's not 3G. It's only EDGE.
