Share your iPhone stories
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Did you pick up an iPhone? Has it lived up to your expectations?
Were you one of the many who ran into delays while trying to activate it?
I’m curious.
Most of the reviews that I’ve seen are positive but speckled with some negatives. The negatives included stuff that has been talked to death including the slow AT&T EDGE network - Web pages can take minutes to download on the screen unless the iPhone finds a Wi-Fi connection. The general consensus is that the built-in camera is nothing special. That’s very typical of all this gizmos. There was one negative that sort of surprised me - it came in this review. The reviewer said telephone calls had poor audio quality.
The big pluses include the excellent media player and the large screen.
I’ve yet to see a reviewer - even those who found plenty of flaws - who hated the iPhone, most are fairly giddy about it. The things worth watching are these: (1) How will sales be four months from now? (2) What sort of improvements will come with second generation software?
