All my money are belong to Apple...

On a scale of 0-10, how much do I want one of these?

That would be, oooh, at least a 12. I was literally drooling while I looked through the demos on the Apple website. iPhone rumours have been floating around for years, but the reality actually manages to top the hype (assuming that reality lives up to the demos). Obviously there are some unanswered questions (third party - and home-brew - application support being top of my list), but it has the potential to be the coolest gadget ever.

On the downside, it is quite pricey (not unsurprisingly, but cheaper and more featureful than getting separate 'phone + iPod + PDA), and not overly well-endowed in the storage department. Also, us Europeans have to wait until Q4 and there's no word as yet on network support.

Still, OMGWANTZ!

PS. AppleTV: Hmmmm. It is rather shiny, but the feature set is rather minimal. Big unanswered question: can it play video that comes from anywhere other than the iTunes store? If not, I certainly can't see myself wanting one...
