    AT & T is being unfair & their service sucks

    You say their service "sucks" but under what conditions? 3G isn't available everywhere just like all companies. Service overall also isn't available everywhere either, but all companies have that problem. AT&T is trying to create a monopoly, but that does not mean that they suck.

    What about all of us that aren't in the US? Can't Apple approve apps for everyone else?

    Apparently, all of these "dropped calls" must occur in California...Cnet constantly reviews phones for AT&T stating poor service and dropped calls...I'm not sure if it has occurred to any of these people that many different markets have widely varying service abilities...I started Law School in Jacksonville, FL (largest US city based on land mass, google it) and I had 3g everywhere...Now I live in Indiana, near Chicago, i have exceptional, 3g coverage from NW Indiana, to Wisconsin...I never use wi-fi there is no point...but all of these reviewers, based in other locations....Sucks to be you, but remember, service may be different than it is in your back yard, or at your Mom's house....

    I don't understand why Google doesn't release their apps via Cydia? Just circumvent apple all together. They could release both location and GV. Or work with an outside developer to post them.

    I don't understand what hold AT&T have over Apple. Surely Apple should just let all the carriers buy iPhones and screw AT&T? It's not like AT&T are going to say no we don't want the iPhone is it?

    iPhone is become addiction for users and this craze is pushing iTune to promote their business and get more bucks. I am not sure why they are not supporting Google Voice on App store where on the other hand they are adding hundreds of new apps on store, iWound was one of them which i have purchased, its an art & fashion mag and superb app. AT&T and iTune should not make it an issue.

    Look at it this way if Apples refuses applications then post to cydia then even more reason to jailbreak just to get good applications that make the iPhone even better.

    Google should just pull their map services on the iPhone, and all their other apps. Then sue apple for letting the 100s of other dialers and free txt apps to exist when they wouldn't allow theirs. They could probably settle for 1/3 control over apple.

    One of the biggest benefit of webapps is no installation required. There are thousand of webapps and I have made a webapp to search all iphone apps easily on iphone. The application list is updated daily from Apple website. It includes all apps approved and rejected by Apple. It is designed specially to use on the iphone so that you can get the application you want instantly.

    If you are rejected by Apple to list your application, you can submit your iphone webapps at http://ipoh.blogdns.com/. It is 100% free and searchable. Please make an introduction to your work at the forum.

    All are welcome!
