iPhone


Apple Computers Inc says: "iPhone combines three products — a revolutionary mobile phone, a widescreen iPod with touch controls, and a breakthrough Internet communications device with desktop-class email, web browsing, maps, and searching — into one small and lightweight handheld device. iPhone also introduces an entirely new user interface based on a large multi-touch display and pioneering new software, letting you control everything with just your fingers. So it ushers in an era of software power and sophistication never before seen in a mobile device, completely redefining what you can do on a mobile phone. "


Their iPods have become a rage(sigh! I don't own one - now that iPhones are here I think I don't need one! ) and with the introduction of iPhones Steve Jobs feels they would be better off being called Apple Inc ('without the computers').


4 GB and 8 GB iPhones are priced at $499 and $599 respectively. If I choose to buy a $599 phone I will have to forego a month's salary. Which means I will have to save in the previous 2 months so that I can continue living decently in the month I buy my iPhone. I can give it a try, but this will involve some waiting and planning. Anything for an iPhone!
