Well let's be honest, matching Sprint/Clear's "4G" speeds shouldn't be that hard anyhow. I had their service here in Vegas and on a good day I was getting 1.2mb down, WiMax is a joke of a service.
Yeah, but we all remember the "sliding scale" they said we'd get at itunes.... where's all those 69 cent catalog songs we were promised? Oh right, they don't exist.
Here's what I did for our environment. We've been a blackberry shop for a number of years now, but of course more and more people wanted iphones. It got to the point where I simply took a day and made the changes to the Exchange server and firewalls.
At that point, we tell people "look, here's the settings to sync to exchange, but beyond that, I don't care about your iphone. If you can't make it work, its on you, not me."
We also do not support them having itunes on their workstations. If they wanna load up their iPhones, they can do it at home. I'm not gonna be responsible when their pc crashes and they lose their purchased music because it isn't backed up.

John Scalzi has been railing against amazon as well. I love his stuff, and he's usually really funny, but I gotta side with Amazon here.
