ntAlong with many other technophiles and mobile phone lovers, I waited in line on June 29 in order to purchase an Apple iPhone. I bought an 8 GB model for TechRepublic to use in testing. Of course, we will be publishing a “Cracking Open” gallery, just as we have with the Nintendo Wii, the Xbox 360, and many other products.
