So,
Yesterday I took the plunge, and switched to AT&T, getting ready for the iPhone. My contract with T-Mobile will be up next week, so I didn’t want to stay in limbo, nor did I want any issues with the number portability around the time of the release.. (I’m expecting a lot of switchers).. so anyway.. I am now an AT&T customer, I have been told that I can switch my temporary handset (A Nokia N75) will be accepted back on the 29th, if everything is in the same box and good condition, and I’ll get credit for the handset towards the iPhone.. so I’m using the $250 for the N75, as a layaway plan.. where I won’t have to shell out the entire $600 on the 29th. Anyway.. here is hope for the iPhone..

I hope the iPhone works with the Alpine iPod car adapter
I just replaced the stereo in my car, and now I have an iPod adapter with it.. I hope the iPhone can be plugged into the same interface.. and then it can use the speakers to let me hear the caller, and the built in mic for voice. Apart from the basic iPod functionality, then I won’t need to fumble for a bluetooth headset, and a car charger for the iPhone. It may not be available in the first edition, but I really hope the engineers thought of this when they were designing it.. it would be a killer feature.. considering all the new cars that are coming with iPod interfaces as an option. Plus it promotes road safety..
