      <title>Apple listens to Robby and releases an iPhone</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Well, they must be listening to me.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;A few months ago, I posted that I was looking to &lt;a href="http://www.robbyonrails.com/articles/2006/09/25/question-scouting-new-mobile-service"&gt;switch mobile services&lt;/a&gt;. Well, I switched over to Cingular after a lot of back and forth and have been &lt;em&gt;fairly&lt;/em&gt; happy with their service. I opted to get their lowend/entry phone as I wanted to get a nicer phone when I found something that met my requirements.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;I wanted&amp;#8230;&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;wifi&lt;/li&gt;
		&lt;li&gt;bluetooth&lt;/li&gt;
		&lt;li&gt;ssh client&lt;/li&gt;
		&lt;li&gt;lightweight web browsing&lt;/li&gt;
		&lt;li&gt;scheduling that sync&amp;#8217;d well with ical&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;/ul&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;Well, I hadn&amp;#8217;t found anything that really caught my attention. So, I heard rumors about Apple releasing a phone in January. So&amp;#8230; I waited.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;blockquote&gt;
		&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&amp;#8220;Yay Apple! I think I&amp;#8217;m in the right office, we&amp;#8217;re all sitting here reading the keynote updates.&amp;#8221;&lt;/em&gt;&amp;#8212;Audrey&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;/blockquote&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;So, how much is this going to cost us? ..a few of &lt;a href="http://www.planetargon.com/about.html"&gt;us here&lt;/a&gt; came up with our predictions.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.robbyonrails.com/files/iphone-prices.jpg" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;Thank you, Apple!&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;...well&amp;#8230; I would have given Apple a hug if I didn&amp;#8217;t have to wait til June.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;...back to work.&lt;/p&gt;
