functionality just isn't as polished as consumers would expect. But 
once the consumer version is ready, i think a simple firmware update 
will bring it up to the same level. I'm not *quite* ready to own a cell 
phone though. The balance of annoyance versus utility hasn't quite 
tipped far enough for me yet.
