Also, another thing that I noticed with the cradle is that the iphone battery charges super fast!

As far as video people mentioned, where is this video? Do you go through the itunes interface on external media? I have no desire to watch video, unless I was parked and waiting for my wife at the grocery store or something. Even then I would just call somebody.

Another cool thing with the apps is that it will read out your RSS feeds or facebook posts so you don't have to look at the screen. It is a robotic voice, so kind of hard to follow.
That is the one thing I don't like either. It would be cool if you just had to plug the phone in the cradel, go to connected drive, and then be able to choose what app to run based on what's installed on the phone.
