iPhone is the invention of the YEAR - TIME Magazine

This goes without question of course, nothing so remarkable has ever
been introduced to the phone market probably since the rotary dial or
original phone back in 1876.

The iPhone changes EVERYTHING we knew before.

Congrats Apple for showing phone makers how a PHONE should actually work!

1. The iPhone design

Most high-tech companies don't take design seriously. They treat it as
an afterthought. Window-dressing. But one of Jobs' basic insights about
technology is that good design is actually as important as good
technology. All the cool features in the world won't do you any good
unless you can figure out how to use said features, and feel smart and
attractive while doing it.

I just bumped into Steve Jobs. He said you are his #1 fanboi and he is
really close to inviting you over so you could have his baby. So your
dream may come true.

How much did Apple pay for that privilege?

wow. there aren't many who can demonstrate ignorance of the meanings
of the words "liberal" and "idiots" in a single phrase.

Ah, whatever it cost to develop the iPhone would be the answer.

It's quite shocking how advanced it is, no smartphone/cell phone will
get close to it for at least 10 years. A true human achievement on the
level of the Microwave and TV.

Do you have one yet?

More remarkable that the idea of cell phones? Or transistors, or
direct dial? I don't think so. The iPhone is a new way to do
something old, not a way to do something new.

Apple squandered a HUGE opportunity with he Iphone. By agreeing to
become a slave to wireless networks, the feature set of the iphone will
forever be reduced to protect wireless network revenus. So Wi-Fi will
forever be crippled to prevent owners from bypassing expensive network
services.

Has Apple produced a totally network independant/unlocked device that
people bought from Apple, Apple could have loaded the puppy with all the
features that make that phone totally remarkable. And as long as the
phone adheres to GSM standards, networks couldn't really block it.
