Total myth.

In fact I got a call this AM while it was charging.

Here is a thread from a former Treo user.

Apple - Support - Discussions - The real test -- everyday use ...

I'm not trying to push people away from Sprint or Mogul. I loved Sprint and PPC's. But I just want folks to be sure they know what the real differences are. Especially in the Mogul return window. And after using the iPhone for a week. There is NO WAY you can really evaluate it in the store. It really comes together when you have your headset, your contacts, your favorites, your photos etc. in the unit.

I figured I'd take a chance and buy one. I almost didn't bother. I figured it would cost me around $100.00 to find out (slightly over 1 month of sprint bill) to really know the answer. I just had to know.

And updates *appears* will be coming.
