Concerns about the iPhone

Throughout the web, various articles have been posted about the high price for Apple's soon to be released mobile device. People have complained about how only tech geeks, people with fat wallets, and of course the mac devotee would want or could afford such a premium device. However, by looking at the technical specifications of the device at www.apple.com, the iPhone doesn't appear to be expensive when you take the time to compare it with the technical specifications of alternative cell phones from Apple's new rivals. How much internal storage capacity do the alternatives provide? How much storage capacity does an SD, microSD, or any other card that could be used with today's mobile devices provide? Does the manufacturer of the phone or the carrier provide a cable where you can easily and efficiently transfer large chunks of data between your mobile device and your personal computer. Personally, I can't wait to get my hands on the new device.
