Yes I agree but still not everyone wants Email on their phones! Email could be the new Text too BUT everyone still needs to be able to receive texts!

Email on the telephone is the "always connected" idea that was peddled some years ago. Remember, data is an integral part of the GSM Backbone therefore costs the network almost nothing as needs to be there anyway.

SMS, MMS and Email are all cash cows. Not cost a lot and has to be there as part of the system

Maybe firmware 2.2.1 comes first and then sometime after Mac World will be the 2.3 firmware if the rumours are more correct then simply just rumours

Watch for the new iphone Nano, and also the new ipod shuffle, this has the ability to also rx emails and send them, looked like a big USB stick.

2.3 will however be released very soon Dave. We have new phones soon hehe
