Will the new Apple phone work on Nextel system??

I have been waiting for this phone for years!!!!!!
It is finally announced, will it work on Nextel?

Its a GSM+EDGE phone and quad band (don't know what they mean, but I'll
spend up to $1000 to have it work)

This is crazy, I have waited 1 - 2 hours and the message still hasn't
showed up. They will probably all show up at once.

And to wonder why people killfile google groups posters...

Your post showed up 5 times.

I just tried to ask a question, sorry if it got posted multiple times.

Yeah, thats a good idea, block all Google Group posters on Google
Groups.

I tried posting and the message never showed up. A few times when
hitting Post, the website just returned to the edit page and I had to
hit post again. It happened in lots(all) groups while google was
updating.

What would you do if your message was bounced, and didn't post, or when
you clicked "Send" it seemed nothing happened. Would you hit send
again?

Why don't you "killfile" all people using high speed connections also.
I'm sure you would be happy with all the posts/replies you receive
limiting it to only people with 300 baud modems.

This isn't a "Google Group". This is a Usenet forum.

Google Groups is a crappy interface to a usenet forum.

And many people DO block Google Groups posters for many reasons -
their crappy interface often gives errors, causing people to THINK
their post didn't go through, so of course, the person tries again,
and again, and again, and again, and again, so the post then shows up
30 times. Or the GG (Google Grouper) thinks the Usenet forum is a
"Google Group".

>I tried posting and the message never showed up.

Because Google Groups isn't Usenet. It's a web based interface to
Usenet. And posts can take hours or days to show up. Yes, that can
happen with usenet too, but it's more common with Google Groups.

Once again, because Google Groups is a crappy interface, and has lots
of problems.

No. Because I use a real usenet client.

When I post a message, it either goes, or I get an error.

I can't think of once in the 10+ years I've been using Usenet where I
got an error message telling me that my message wasn't sent but it
actually was.

>Why don't you "killfile" all people using high speed connections also.

Uhhhhh yeah, that made a lot of sense.

>I'm sure you would be happy with all the posts/replies you receive

Maybe I'm not as smart as you, but I don't understand your analogy.

People blocking GG'ers who use a crappy interface to the internet vs
blocking people with a high speed connections?

Please explain.
