...partner AT&T could still foul things up. The old phone company is running as fast as it can, but it continues to be an anchor on Apple and is having a hard time delivering on some of the iPhone's promise. Among other things, the iPhone 3Gs offers video and can be wirelessly tethered to your laptop and act like a modem. (Say goodbye to ever again paying for wi-fi in hotels!)
