Most of the people I asked have answered me that they would be just getting the handset (probably not today but coming week) and choosing their own plans instead of the iPhone plans (iPhone 250,500,1GB)

They could do, but to do what with? Pretty much all options involve signing your soul to the big red devil., They tried to make it appear like you have choices but whatever way you look at it the majority of the people who get it will be trapped into another 2 years.

Excluding the choice not to get it of course :)

Nope neither, in fact I'll be impressed if they have enough to satsify all the people in the line tonight. :)

Thanks :)

But when I open this file using Media Player, I get this error :(

Windows Media Player cannot play the file because a network error occurred. The server might not be available. Verify that you are connected to the network and that your proxy settings are correct.
