Introducing the Apple iPhone

[ Ben Lucier at Wordpress] After Cisco and Apple come to an agreement over the iPhone trademark, and the FCC approves the device, the Apple iPhone will see it’s US debut in June 2007 through Apple and Cingular stores countywide. Not sure where that leaves Canadians, but I was told not to hold my breath until 2008. Canadian GSM carriers (ie. Rogers) will also have some work to do if they plan to offer Cingular’s equivalent to “Visual Voicemail“. Hopefully Rogers will also consider offering an unlimited data plan like Cingular too.
