Could that price point prevent it from being a HUGE hit?

Not likely...there are people who will shell out just about anything for a new product that is this good. In fact, I can see Adam reaching for his credit card already to pre-order.

we will be able to use it, but without the special features like visual voicemail etc. I am sure Rogers will support the phone eventually.

Some have fooled themselves into believing that the $499/$599 iPhone includes the 2 years of service...

I'm sure they'll be a CDMA version of the phone coming. Cingular probably has 1st rights to it for 1yr or something. This happens all the time with phones...
