Yay! No more furtive looks at my device on the bus!

Fun stuff, it has a ridiculous amount of radios:
Quad Band GSM (850/900/1800/1900)
HSDPA/UMTS (850/1900/2100)
GPS
WiFi (802.11 a/b/g)
Bluetooth.

What, no 802.11n(both frequencies)? Slacker!
Looks nifty, but the chain that would come with one is a (work-related-)chain I do not want.

egad! what use would n be??

for a device that never downloads more than a couple k at a time?

still, you could buy one with a personal plan, rather than a corporate one (especially since youd have to use a gsm network anyway!)
