2) You cannot record video. Another deal breaker for a phone this expensive.
3) You only get 200 text messages with their bundle plans.
4) OSX takes up 700MB of your precious 4GB of storage
In addition:
- Verizon is still the #1 carrier in the PHX market, which means that I will not be able to take advantage of the free mobile to mobile minutes for ALL of my local calls. This is very important to me since I recently got rid of my land line, and am now 100% cell phone.
If issues 1-4 listed above were addressed and functional, I may have been able to "overlook" at&t's service level in this market.
At this point, I think I'm going to wait to see what Verizon comes out with in the near future (LG Prada?), to combat the iPhone.
In the meantime, I will be keeping an eye out for hands on end consumer reviews, and performance levels for this market.

I am also going to wait for the Prada, I have the new Bberry and I dont really like it as it doesnt have a camera
