After very little deliberation and a desire for just about anything that involves electronics, I drove down to my local AT&T store and bought myself the iPhone. After about an hour with the phone, I can say it works almost as well as advertised and activation couldn't have been easier. Look for more in-depth stories over the course of this weekend, but I tell you my preliminary thoughts right now:

It's a bit smaller than I though it would be and the screen is just as nice as it looks in the photos. Simply put, it is one good looking device.

Can you say intuitive? Everything you think you should do actually works. Nice work Apple.

Family Guy tips from YouTube. Nice. Very nice.

That's all I've got for you right now. Check back this weekend for more updates.
