for the Emerging Nerd...

Considering the iPhone's impact on the mobile phone industry, it is interesting of late to see design coming from regions far beyond 'the box.' I chased a link today and saw what Levi jeans is offering. Looks a bit more rugged than most [stainless steel case] but my interest is always in the data storage and retreival facility. I'm not sure if an iPhone is in my near (or distant) future, considering all the new cell technology developments.

Q: How appealing is the new iPhone to you? What are the main determining factors in your choice of tele-communication?
