Pogue’s iPhone FAQ

The keyboard does work when the screen is in wide orientation, but only in Safari. According to Pogue, Apple’s reason for not going with faster 3G data networking is the current 3G chipsets burn through batteries. (Given the iPhone’s long battery life compared to rival devices, this sounds plausible.) No stored passwords in Safari; I hadn’t thought of that.
