looking forward to being the envy (or joke?) of all my friends..
surfing the web even if its EDGE technology... having my first smart phone (big debate btw this and the blackjack).. a brilliant display.. and skipping through voicemails, which i hate listening to.

[tony2x @ Jun 29th 2007 10:58PM]

Touch my iPhone in the most special places.

[Kevin @ Jul 1st 2007 3:48PM]

I need a new phone because verizon service is terrible...

[James @ Jun 30th 2007 7:09AM]

touch it and take it for a test drive

[Devon @ Jun 29th 2007 8:16PM]

not having to stand in line and wait for one.
Oh yeah and not spending the equivalent of a car note on one.

[Tim @ Jun 29th 2007 8:24PM]

Using MP3 player to loose my gut.
Impressing all the single ladies at the bars around here
Looking like a CEO with a device like the iPhone.

[TMZisclassless @ Jun 29th 2007 8:25PM]

can't wait to sych with every damn program on my mac...

[cisco Kid @ Jun 29th 2007 8:37PM]

I wish to take one, sell it, and use the money to buy food for a needy family.

Something useful with a worthless phone.

[Vex14 @ Jun 30th 2007 4:29AM]

I'm most looking forward to the ease of use of a touch screen web device.

[Tim @ Jun 29th 2007 8:43PM]

oh man...being abel to watch movies, call people, surf the web...and oh yeah listen to music.

all at the touch of my finger tips...pssshhhh who doesnt want one?!

[Zoe @ Jul 1st 2007 7:36PM]

google maps!

[Adam @ Jun 29th 2007 8:43PM]

I'm looking forward to all the hot ladies that are gonna be all over me and my iPhone....

[XAL @ Jun 29th 2007 8:47PM]

Using it as a portable map with search capabilities will come in really handy on the busy streets of San Francisco.

[1bigtrhinny @ Jun 29th 2007 8:50PM]

Sounds NICE no lines to wait in!!!!

[Adam @ Jun 29th 2007 8:56PM]

Sync, sync, sync,
sync with my mac. Oh how happy this will make us all

[Paul @ Jun 29th 2007 8:57PM]

I have enough of a job not to be able to wait on line and not enough of one to get one without a contest...

[nick11dx @ Jun 29th 2007 9:05PM]

would love one of these babies but of course the money issue

[kschutt @ Jun 29th 2007 9:06PM]

take it for a spin around the block, and play with the fancy touch screen

[Ed McNichol @ Jun 29th 2007 9:07PM]

Showing off my new iPhone will help me get elected to the Mill Creek City Council!

[waters @ Jun 29th 2007 9:21PM]

I am looking forward to simplifying my gadget carrying - just wish mating my treo to my nano didn't have such a high price. Oh, and cover flow looks awesome.

[foyleman @ Jun 29th 2007 9:46PM]

You're right on. I do want one even if I tell everyone that I don't want one. Shhh... don't tell anyone.

I am most looking forward to the touch screen interface. I would like to see this option come to more Windows phones like the HTC (come-on Verizon, you need one too, right?). In the meantime, I am just thankful that apple is pushing this feature forward. It's about time someone did.

[Phil @ Jun 29th 2007 9:19PM]

everything

[Espinoza @ Jun 29th 2007 9:36PM]

I'm looking forward to using the damn thing already. Now, where do I pick it up.

[zamm @ Jun 29th 2007 9:54PM]

Because I am to lazy to wait for the iphone mini, then the iphone in different colors, then the iphone slim, then iphone v 2.0, etc.

[Brad @ Jun 29th 2007 9:23PM]

I told quite a few people I wouldn't be caught dead buying one of these things. However, it would make a great gift for my girlfriend, upon whom my tenuous hold is maintained through lavish and attractive gifts. Help keep a nerd and a hot girl paired up like so many bluetooth devices!

[chris haw @ Jun 29th 2007 11:08PM]

a cell phone that operates on a mac OSX level...not like the average cell phones still in old school formats. visual voice mail, slick OS, etc.
chris

[Art @ Jun 29th 2007 9:45PM]

Good to get one

[Psychotron @ Jun 29th 2007 9:41PM]

I want it to complete my iDouchebag look...

[mike @ Jun 30th 2007 7:10AM]

im looking forward to actually looking good while i hold my iphone in my hand and then all the girls are like omg and then they think im cool and got money

i need this pleaseee my dudeeee

[Brad @ Jun 29th 2007 9:53PM]

If you have to ask for a reason, you just dont understand the appeal of the iPhone. Its only 2.5G, can only play iTunes (im a Windows Media fan myself), doesnt have a removable battery, cant record video. There are so many reasons not to get an iPhone. I write for a mobile technology site, and just wrote an article on why I will not be getting an iPhone.

Of course, ill take anything for free, especially something that will make those around me think im a rich Apple fanatic.

[James @ Jun 29th 2007 9:53PM]

Ilove the design.

[TI @ Jun 29th 2007 9:51PM]

I'd love to get my hands on one mostly for its interface. I'm a text/email heavy user, but I'd be willing to wean myself off of it since I carry both my Dash and an iPod nano. It'd be nice to combine the two devices. Not only that, the interface is nice, and I find the multi-touch to be innovative. Whether or not I would call this device "revolutionary" is up for debate...I doubt it would be revolutionary, but it certainly is a huge jump for user friendliness on a cell phone. I'm not a fanboy nor am I a hater: I'd jump at the best product available no matter who makes it.

[NakedOldGuy @ Jun 29th 2007 9:55PM]

I plan to scratch its shininess off through regular use then breaking it and cashing in on the replacement warranty then selling it to support my raging meth addiction.

[Jeff @ Jun 29th 2007 9:59PM]

surfing the web!

[Logboy @ Jun 29th 2007 10:00PM]

I've got two reasons why I'm looking forward to my FREE* iPhone
1. Not having to pay the insane price.
2. Not having succumb to the Apple hype machine.

[Andy Placido @ Jun 29th 2007 10:16PM]

Having an all in one device that i can take with me everywhere.

[Shawn Shelton @ Jun 30th 2007 10:42PM]

would love to have one!

[DJCarson @ Jun 29th 2007 10:07PM]

Oh, rejoice in having an iPhone and still make a house payment.

~Don

[Jason @ Jun 29th 2007 10:15PM]

Like everybody else already said.... not having to wait in line

[Jon @ Jun 30th 2007 9:10AM]

Will come in handy to keep up on the RSS feeds on my 4 hour commute each day

[absurdio @ Jun 29th 2007 10:32PM]

I am not excited to be the three-thousand-six-hundred-and-something-eth person to respond to this. Nor am I excited about admitting that the 1 to (currently) three-thousand-six-hundred-and-something odds of winning still seem worth it to me. I am, however, excited by the idea of replacing this RAZR-taped-to-an-iPhone. Oh, and having a pretext to end my Verizon contract isn't a bad thing, either: I miss my goddamn bluetooth functionality.

[engadget.com @ Jun 29th 2007 10:19PM]

I want to be cool too!

[Thomas Deacon @ Jun 29th 2007 11:08PM]

Word on the street is that the iphone will give you cancer AND chemo theorpy!

[Bil Brown @ Jun 30th 2007 8:43AM]

Not waiting in line
Getting a smartphone that is actually a smart phone and not a phone with latent tendencies to deliver bad data
Using a real email client on my handheld
Using a real browser, totally complient
Watching YouTube
3rd party web apps
Oh yeah, syncing FLAWLESSLY with iTunes
making calls

[Mark @ Jul 2nd 2007 9:49AM]

I will use the iphone to make news in my business office and keep it displayed as a means of strengthening my contact list. It sure beats a book on the coffee table or an old pewter beer stein to generate conversation.

[martin vandepas @ Jun 29th 2007 10:22PM]

Loving it more than I love my child.

[Alex @ Jun 30th 2007 10:40AM]

I'd be pretty excited to get a free to add to my collection of free Apple products. I have a 3g iPod and a video iPod and i haven't paid a dime for either. This could be the trifecta.

[eh @ Jun 29th 2007 10:29PM]

Im most looking foward to watching youtube when Im not supposed to. But first I have to reply to this guys comment which will send another email notifying him that somebody replied.

[Dave Johnson @ Jun 29th 2007 10:56PM]

Well, it would be great to upgrade from my Newton at last!

[Nelson @ Jun 29th 2007 10:36PM]

Watching nemo on the screen saver
