For the most part, I'm drooling over the iPhone. However the device, in its current incarnation, is positioned as a consumer lifestyle product rather than a business/productivity tool - as an AAPL shareholder this is something I'd like to see change in product positioning Apple-wide as this has strong bearing on potential market share gains. How long does Apple want to be seen as the Tween hipster brand? That certainly does not describe me and I think my Macs are the best business computers period. I think the phone could easily be both a lifestyle and business product and I will switch to it as soon as the following two issues are resolved:
1. Copy and paste is available within and between applications. Much of the ability to stay in touch and current with data is diluted when one cannot act upon that information in an efficient manner (e.g., copying an email signature line to create a new contact).
2. Apple releases password management software for the iPhone that would allow me to keep track of logins, passwords, PINs, etc. Of course, I'd rather that Apple allows third party applications, but this is the solution with the current Web-only applications constraint.
