Well I don't think Apple's announcements today were anything groundbreaking, but there were two features I found absolutely impressive:

1. iMovie for the iPhone - Shoot 720p, edit, add images & titles, then export. This will be very handy for news reporters and tech bloggers.
2. iChat for the iPhone - This is freaking amazing, but currently only available on Wi-Fi due to carrier limitations. Way to go AT&T Wireless!

AT&T again proves to be less than innovative.

I swapped to AT&T when I wanted to jump into the iPhone craze and at the time they were a much better option than Verizon Wireless in my area. AT&T just announced they are getting rid of the unlimited data option for mobiles. This is a step backwards in my humble opinion. Give people freedom (or unlimited data) and then say, "Ha... just kidding. No unlimited data for you."

I'm not terribly upset by the data limit considering I'm going to be paying $5 less per month for 2 GB of data. Especially since I usually use between 500-1000MB per month.

What really irks me, is that they are charging an additional $20 per month for tether option! This is absurd! Its the same bandwidth no matter how you split it and they want to make me spend an additional $20 per month for it. I would really like to be able to take my iPad or netbook anywhere and be able to connect via the Nexus One or iPhone. This is really a sign of a company who is less than innovative!
