What do you think about an iPhone for your home? Would you actually use? I certainly see the iPhone’s usability but would I get a home version? I think not, but let’s give it a closer look.

The company manufacturing this device is OpenPeak and it has been working on this version for about a year and a half. Are they ready? Not yet! The final version will hit the market sometime in the first quarter of 2009.

The phone is said to have been designed as a communication center for the whole family and third party developers will be able to create applications specially designed for this iPhone. Ok, but why keep investing in landlines when you are mostly talking on your cell phone?

This iPhone Home will be available from Verizon and AT&T but you might find it available with other private resellers too. The price is rumored to be somewhere between $200 to $300. The price is not that bad for a smartphone but it might be too much for a phone you’ll hardly use. Sure OpenPeak says their product will have lots of other features, but I really hate being the one that tells them we have computers at home which are more than able to perform complicated tasks. And VoIP is one of them.

Still skeptical about this phone, but if you do happen to get it, do tell us more about it!
