I know there are a flurry of iPhone reviews going around tech sites and blogs, so I’ll spare you the technical details or rehash things that have already been covered time and time again.

I thought it would be interesting to just share my experience over the past week of iPhone ownership. A first hand accounting of my experiences and thoughts of the new Apple iPhone. Keep in mind that my previous cell phone was a Blackberry 8100 Pearl.

My overall experience with the iPhone has been very, very pleasant. It’s the perfect combination of smart phone and multimedia device. I don’t use the term PDA because I don’t think the iPhone is intended to replace devices such as a Treo or your Dell Axim. What I think the iPhone is going to do is replace your previous iPod (which ever version you may have) and your cell phone. Two devices that have never been successful at performing the others duties as well.

As a phone, it’s super easy to use. Contacts are the most accessible I’ve ever seen them thanks to Apple’s scrolling Rolodex style of keeping your contacts, and during calls every feature you’d need is right at your finger tips.

As a multimedia player, it does what the Video iPod did but only better. A larger screen, build in speakers and touch screen controls. Seriously, what more can you ask for?

I’ve seen people compiling wishlists across the Web on features they want in their phone, such as SD Card slot, removable battery or some other outlandish request. That’s not a wishlist for your current phone, that’s a feature request for a future device. Here is -MY- Wishlist of things I hope to see on -MY- iPhone in the future:

• More Configuration Options
  • Ability to change event sounds
  • Custom Ring Tones
  • Ability to add/remove applications (I’ll never use the stock ticker)
• More Features with the Camera
  • Movies
  • Digital Zoom
• Browser Enhancement
  • Full support for Flash
  • Render speed and overall performance

Other than that, Bravo Apple! I couldn’t be happier with my purchase.
