$10 extra for unlimited texts? WTF? Why use text messaging when you have Twitter and email on your phone?
- Pascal-Emmanuel Gobry
so far integration + the price is the story, imo
Nice uniform they're wearing, I wonder where the rank insignia is.
- Pascal-Emmanuel Gobry
35$ unlimited mobile web + messaging - that rocks

i like that mega-billionaires can still get jazzed over holding $12.50 of silicon components running on pixie dust, RedBull, and pizza

does it work with iTunes and Skype? -- it'll work with any music format, but for iTunes it'll have to be DRM-unlocked
it won't work with skype

that was also my impression listening to Miner last week ... it seems as if they concentrated on getting things done and spent little time devising the marketing stuff

"we believe that open is going to drive..." open open open open
"I spent 30 minutes last night playing Pac-man"
optimised "address search & "web search" - they worked really hard on that one ... this experience could be industry-changing as search does not work on mobile
Compass mode on Google Maps looks cool - screen moves as you move
