I think apple will surprise us all and include it with all iphones as a pack in.

I agree with Josh, my memory of the keynote demo was that it was included. Though, that might be because Jobs said the ear piece charged in the iPhone’s docking station. Remember when top of the line iPods came with cases, docks and inline remotes.

That would be nice if they included it seeing how the high end will cost 600 dollars.

I agree Greg. When I bought my old 3rd generation ipod I had all the pack ins. I think there will be other pack ins that will surprise us.

With the price of the I-phone as it is, i would hope this will be a pack-in with a dock, headphones etc… as its going to take a lot to convince me its worth £350(ish). If they are not included.

Yeah, Apple better include that as a pack-in. I would hate to pay $600 for a phone that doesn’t come with any pack-ins. And speaking of the iPod, I think the only reason they got cheaper is because Apple started taking out more and more pack-ins. I mean, I can understand the dock and AC adapter, but to not include the iTunes CD? BS.
