i can’t tell you the number of people i met in LA who loved hearing about what all i used my iPhone and iPad for on set, but ultimately stuck with their BlackBerry or dumbphone because of AT&T’s network problems. today’s announcement changes that.

it’ll be interesting to see how many people in the film business quickly rush to Verizon or the Apple Store in February to get their hands on this device.  this is good news for developers and even better news for customers.
