You're so awesome. I know one other person with the iPhone, but I've never really had a chance to talk to them about it. I've played with it a bit at the store, but that never really gives you enough insight.
I've heard that using the on-screen Qwerty keyboard to text can be a pain in the butt, and as a heavy texter, that's one of my concerns, in addition to the one I mentioned earlier. Other than that...yeah, it's mostly dealing with AT&T. I left AT&T for US Cellular a couple years ago, because their customer service went downhill (or seemed to) as soon as the merger started, and because you don't get nearly as much for their plans as you do for the same price elsewhere. I am constantly on my Blackberry (internet, voice calls and text) between work and home life and the plan I have one makes it ok - free incoming everything, basically, plus included international texts with a texting package. Seeing as how AT&T doesn't have the free incoming (can you use the unlimited plan with the iPhone, or will you have to add the costly internet service on top of that?) stuff, does the iPhone make the switch worth it?
