Currently I own an HTC 8525, it works. It has 3G and its platform is more or less "open". There are so many security holes you can’t count them. However, I can download any app and run it on my phone. And developers can make what they want. No platform is perfect, I believe for the iPhone to really become the de-facto standard smartphone it MUST be open…and soon! And it must have 3G.

I can’t wait to start plugging away in Python on my 3G iPhone. Too much to hope for? I don’t think so as rumors are already flying about AT&T (Cingular) preparing to upgrade their 3G to EV-DO speeds.

I am a fairly happy AT&T Customer and a very happy Apple customer. If I can use an iPhone to wirelessly feed my MacBook Pro with a broadband data connection via Bluetooth (as I am currently doing with my 8525) I am a 100% certain buyer. Get to it Apple! I’m waiting…patiently…to sign over my paycheck to you!
