I will buy this, or another "smart phone" as soon as the telecoms loose their grip. FREE THE IPHONE!

Companies like AT&T and Verizon are getting in the way by shackling open and innovative devices to closed networks. The FCC and Congress must step in to protect consumers and foster innovation. We demand:
1. The freedom to choose any phone on any network.
2. The freedom to choose among many carriers in a competitive, low-cost marketplace.
3. The freedom to access any Web content, applications or services we want through our phones.

Planned obsolescence. Wonderful way to continue to make a buck.
