I guess people watch movies on laptops, ipods, and eventually stuff like the ipad, but I don't really understand it. Larger TVs (40" and bigger) aren't really that expensive anymore. Why would I want to watch a movie on a 10" screen?
I can't talk, I'll sit and watch Naruto on my laptop sitting on my couch in front of my 55'' TV...

I'm still trying to figure surfing the net on your phone, the only internet I want on my phone is sports scores, the weather and my email.

I wonder if the extended life battery will give it wings?

A lot of people like me spend a lot of time on public transportation (trains, subways etc) so it's ideal for situations like that. Also plane travel.

Yep! You can just about guarantee that I will have one! It looks like an almost perfect solution.A nice portable DVD-Rom and your ass in in business! Although, the I-Pad can be had for $500 for a 16G and $829 for a 3G 64G... but again with no usb port, memory card slot, no blue tooth, I'm wondering how you get media to the thing other than WiFi of course...

It's got the same port as the iPhone and iPod touch, so you just use the same type of USB cable.

No camera, no flash = no deal.

And if you hold it up to your ear you'll look like the 21st century Zack Morris.
