There were some complications of moving my phone number from Sprint (it was the primary number on an account that included phones for Mary, and our kids). But by about 3:00pm yesterday, all was working.We have a wireless network in our house (I haven’t tried it in the car yet) - and the iPhone picked up on it immediately. As I played with the iPhone around the house, I had fast access. On our bike ride this morning, we tried browsing the internet from Cloverdale - it was a bit slow, but email flowed, and it was usable. But I probably won’t be doing a lot of browsing unless it is urgent if I am not near 802.11 access.I am already checking my email more from my iPhone than my computer. My personal and Gmail accounts are working fine. I am having some problems with my Sapias account - but the incoming is me (Mahesh has it working) and outbound is likely fixable. The biggest issue on my personal account is the volume of junk mail I get. On my Mac with Entourage, the junk is filtered - but on the iPhone there is no filtering. And so far, I haven’t figured out multi-select to trash multiple emails at once (it may not exist yet).I have downloaded music and podcasts - and will at least spend some time trying these out. The features are as advertised - just have to see if I have the inclination to listen while I am walking or doing other things.I had to get Mary to get me pictures of my kids and grand kids - something I have never kept current before - I will likely keep this info current.I have found lot’s of useful web sites that I will likely look at more regularly. Some of the tools I regularly use work, others don’t yet. [...] […] I was in business as promised by iTunes (doing my activation) - actually earlier than promised.
