Well, except that among those "everyday users" if you take about a minute or less you can find everyday users who call it everything from the second coming to the worst piece of crap they've ever laid hands on. So hard to really tell how objective *any* of those everyday user reviews are.

I thought the claim all along has been that Yahoo would be (the only) push mail, so that's an interesting observation!

While Outlook syncs nicely with the iPhone it too is really slow compared to the speed of a sync on my BlackBerry. I timed it, with the somewhat large contact list I have (3,500 contacts) it takes just under 30 seconds on the BlackBerry. The same operation on the iPhone is 2.5 minutes.

So there you have it. Typing emails is "slightly miserable", the sync is "really slow" and the phone quality is "a bit weak and not all that clear" but he rates it "a solid 7 on a scale of 1-10"???? What the heck is he rating it as, one wonders? Oh yeah, love those "everyday user" reviews!
