At long last! Rumors have flown and people have clamored for it for over a year. As one of the biggest gripes about the original iPhone, I know it kept me from purchasing one for a long time. Paying $600 for a cell phone (no subsidy) and having to sign your life away to AT&T for two years for slow data speeds, poor sound quality, dropped calls and crappy customer service were all tolerable and easily overlooked when compared to having to use a bent paperclip to get to the SIM card in the iPhone.Really, what kind of monsters work at Apple to think people want to deal with the hassle of destroying a perfectly good paperclip just to get to a SIM card most people never need to access?
I, for one, think this addition to the iPhone is welcome and long overdue.
I'm dissapointed that they didn't give us a picture of their newest feature! I have been trying to get my sim card out for 4 months now, finally a way to do it! Thank you Apple for your continued innovations, without which we would all be SIM cardless for ever!
ReplyDeleteI also see that now the Dock is not included. And that they are selling a 'iPhone 3G Dock' that looks exatly like the one that come with the first gen iphone.
ReplyDeleteYeah, same as with the iPods - used to be included and then they pulled it.
ReplyDeleteBut now I think of it as a $200 dock. :)
