1. At $599, it is ridiculously expensive. (Add in the cost of an AT&T contract and you get close to $1500)

2. Those who want to buy one must sell their soul to evil mega-corporation AT&T.

3. Japan already has technologically superior phones, and they’re far cheaper.

4. Slower internet than the commercials show: “The data experience is going to be very slow. If you’re on a cellular network, [using the Internet] is going to be very slow.”

5. Initial reports indicate that YouTube is slow and crappy using cellular network internet. It’s nothing like in the commercials.

6. You cannot remove its battery. Thanks for replicating one of the biggest complaints about the ipod, Apple!

7. The glass touch screen of the iPhone guarantees that thousands of customers who drop their phones will have cracked screens.

8. The touchscreen keyboard sucks, according to those who have used the phone.

9. It can’t send MMS picture messages.

10. It has no built-in sync with Outlook that is as secure as a RIM BlackBerry or Windows Mobile.

11. It lacks proper support for Flash websites. So much for the internet.

12. It can’t record video.

13. No instant messaging.

14. It can’t connect to corporate e-mail networks, so don’t see it replacing your BlackBerry any time soon.

15. No songs as ringtones.

16. No GPS.

17. It creates incredibly annoying iPhone fanboys.
