Apple launches iPhone to a chorus of bloggers screaming like girls at a Beatles concert. I have to admit I was sucked in for a minute. I mean, as a Realtor, I want to have something like the iPhone, but without it costing me $600 dollars. Notice I wasn’t fooled by the $599. I’ll actually be purchasing a phone like this in the next couple of months. I just don’t feel like dropping that much on a fad phone that’s only 2G technology. Might as well set my money on fire.
In case your just hearing about it (doubtful), here’s what its all about. It’s like a soap opera without the bad dialogue.
Check out the rise and fall of iPhone (or whatever they’re going to call it)
The Rise:
And Fall of iPhone
Seems somebody forgot to tie up the whole trademark thing. I’m sure Steve thought it was “a go” the day before, but if it’s not in writing, it doesn’t exist. They’ll probably work it out, but I bet Cisco’s negotiating position just got better.
That was fast.
I actually don’t think it’s failed. It seems to be a great design, though I don’t think it’s going to quite live up to all the initial hype. Maybe they should increase the memory to 20 megs, rename it iPod Mobile and call it a day.
