Summary of today:

Lots of nifty 3rd-party apps - it looks like the iPhone is about on par with graphics as the current Nintendo DS is.
Optimized internet access - only a tad slower than Wi-Fi (to download an attachment, Wi-Fi took 3 seconds, iPhone took 5, Nokia phone took 12 seconds.)
300 hour idling battery life.
Fully active GPS system.
Flushed headphone jack, finally.
$200 for 8GB model, $300 for 16GB model (providing you take the 2 year AT&T contract as well).
And all the other goodies that the old iPhone had.

I am absolutely eager to get mine - I will be one of many hounding the door at the local AT&T store. The two year plan is nothing, since I've been planning to upgrade my current plan anyways, and it would require a resign. The cost of the iPhone is actually very cheap, as I remember purchasing my first cellphone a few years back at 300 dollars with a plan. I'll cheerfully pay for an iPod cellphone with video capabilities and internet for the same price!

That, and I've found out I can connect to Lusternia via the iPhone.

Fear me, Lusternia, I shall rain my fiery wrath down upon ye while waiting for my coffee. From my cell phone!

Suddenly, I feel fear. "Hey guys, Forren, Narsrim, Malicia, Nydekion, and Talkan all went down to Florida to get suntans. We don't need to worry about them."

And then....they raid us. With the cellphone. We will never be safe again. Of course, we also get this: "Hey guys, sorry about that. I got in an elevator and reception went down." "Dammit, will my mom stop calling me? I'm trying to kill some newbies, hello doesn't anyone know how hard this is? Yeah, mom? I gotta let you go, I'm ganking some kids."
