this is apple, not microsoft. there will be no software problems to work out. they have spent over 2 years working on this so that it doesn't have major problems.
the biggest selling point, contrary to everybody who speaks of screen and WiFi, will not be a single feature. it will not even be that it's an iPod. apple wants this to be the easiest phone you have ever used. that is the revolution, the sheer brilliance and ease that you can use the device. better than a nokia, better than an SE. that is apple's entry into phone business.
without that, if it sucks, if there are complaints of crashes and overall suckiness when using the touchscreen then apple has failed.
you may be able to crticize lack of features like UMTS but you will not have anything negative to say of the software and interface, i guarantee you this.

the model you're looking at is basically for the americas, a carrier named Cingular will offer it exclusively when it ships by june of this year.
it will see changes and upgrades before apple introduces it to europe this christmas and asia in spring 2008. apple will also likely have a separate widescreen video iPod without phone functions for the christmas season.
in the americas 3G is not very prevalent. of the two gsm carriers only one has it and they've just started building it out so it's no real loss for them. T-Mobile in america has no 3G what so ever.
now the cdma american carriers have lots of 3G coverage but alas, this is not cdma.

"Is there a model coming out soon with 3G?"
by the time it hits europe later this year, it will likely have 3G. you must remember that apple upgrades very rapidly and iPhone will be no exception.

--- Built-in Advanced Sensors ---
iPhone’s accelerometer detects when you rotate the device from portrait to landscape, then automatically changes the contents of the display, so you immediately see the entire width of a web page or a photo in its proper landscape aspect ratio.
The proximity sensor detects when you lift iPhone to your ear and immediately turns off the display to save power and prevent inadvertent touches until iPhone is moved away.
An ambient light sensor automatically adjusts the display’s brightness to the appropriate level for the current ambient light, thereby enhancing the user experience and saving power at the same time.
please tell me what else can do this.

"THOSE NEGATIVES WILL BE A DEADLY FORCE FOR THIS SO-CALLED PHONE!
Hopefully mp3 player will work ok!"
