Apple recently released their TV ad for the new iPhone which is coming this summer from Cingular (or, uh the "new" AT&T). The ad first aired during the Oscars and is now available online. The add uses a fun trip through phone use in movie-making history.
Meanwhile, much to the chagrin of Apple fan boys, David Haskin from ComputerWorld says the iPhone may meet the fate of the Apple Newton Messagepad. You can read his comments here.
My current thoughts on iPhone: without Outlook integration (did I mention that Office 2007 is sweet), with a huge price tag, Cingular only, slow GSM data connection, I am down on the iPhone and will probably look elsewhere. Don't get me wrong, the device is very cool. I will probably just wait until the touch interface is on a high capacity iPod and then look at the smartphone market for PDA/phone integration.

I'm patient. I'm just going to wait until they put a chip in my head that reads my thoughts and transports them to other people. The phone won't even ring, they'll just know what I'm trying to say and I'll hear what they say right back in my head.
It'll take much less effort for my wife to convey to me that this is the sixth time she's telekinetic'd me to take out the trash. All while listening to classic rock brain-fm.

Too funny - your wife in your head - too funny
