So I finally got my new iPhone 3G! This is an amazing little device. In a matter of minutes I was reading my Gmail, corporate Exchange email, syncing contacts from Gmail, syncing calendars with Exchange, using Twitter (via: Twitterific), remote controlling my AppleTV and listening to Last.fm. Setting all of this up was ridiculously simple and I had no issues whatsoever.
My next task is to get the VPN working (there is an issue with my work’s VPN that is causing problems when issuing keys to new connections). Once that is up and running I should be able to work, from my iPhone!
The UI is fantastic, the built in applications are solid, the downloaded applications are seemless. It is remarkable how simple and effective the entire device is. It is also remarkable that nobody else has been able to accomplish this yet.
