fragmenting myself as I posted this on your blog also: it may be interesting that the stock is not down MORE (but there's still 50 minutes left..). They effectively announced "New phone VERY cool and cheaper, BUT not selling any phones for one month. kthxbai" - Robert Seidman

I'm especially interested in the data issue. That $199 pricetag isn't going to look as hot if they try to make up the difference in data charges. - Carla Thompson

i'll be very surprised if data plan isn't identical to current plan...which doesn't mean i won't be surprised! - Robert Seidman

Did the keynote mention support for an IM client? I guess meebo does fine huh. - Phil Glockner

Time to mobilize -- we have 1 month to demand more! - Andy Sternberg

meebo doesn't really do fine on the gen1 phone because if you leave safari (say to go to e-mail) it logs you out. - Robert Seidman

AT&T's plan for 3G laptop cards maxes out at 5GB/month, fwiw -- I believe it's $59.99 - Andy Sternberg

looks like it's going to be $30 for the data plan on top of the voice plan - Frederic

Frederic: unlimited data usage/transfer? - Andy Sternberg

@Andy: My laptop has built-in AT&T 3G for $59/mo and is unlimited - Stephen Foskett

There will be video on the iPhone because the people at QIK told me that QIK for the 3G iPhone will be out VERY soon. - Tokyo Dan from twhirl

My guess is the new apps are subsidizing some of the cost as well. Similar to video game console economics. - Eric Thompson

Eric - good point, Apple is keeping 30% - MG Siegler

No video is probably my biggest disappointment - Mike Doeff
