Okay. Get ready. Tim Gideon and I will be iPhonin' all night long, and iPhonin' 'till the break of dawn. We'll iPhone when the sun goes down and when the sun comes up. If you check Gearlog later tonight, you might even see me live-blogging my iPhone test results.
So let's make this a little interactive. You've read the four early reviews from Pogue, Mossberg, Levy and Baig. What's missing? What do you want your favorite techies to be testing? Post it in the comments field below and I'll try to get around to it, provided I have the time (no battery tests) and appropriate equipment (I do not own a BMW, nor do I have any way of acquiring one.)
Our eventual review on PCMag.com will summarize our iPhone thoughts in a fun, entertaining, readable way. But I'm going to try to post every single answer I get from my hands-on testing here on Gearlog, so you get all the juicy technical details.
So have at it. What should we be testing?

Is it a dessert topping or is it a floor wax?
No, really,
I heard that iPhone finds Wi-Fi automatically, can you choose a specific HotSpot, so you're using your network instead of your neighbors, or does it glom on to the strongest unsecured one automatically? Same applies for StarBucks.
Speaking of Starbucks, how many steps does it take to find a public hotspot if one isn't around, using Maps?

It's an Apple device, so we can assume that it's going to sound great, and the interface will probably be good--it better be.
What I want to know is just how much better is it at web browsing than the better Windows Mobile phones. And, when you're not on WiFi, how annoyingly slow is the experience, both on the web and watching YouTube vids.
