Apple announces new "iPhone".

Too bad one of those patents didn't include the name of iPhone....

The iPhone is nothing new, just like the iPod video is nothing new. Companies have already had what they have had long before they have had it, and with many of the same features (although I don't think they included 8 gigs of hard disk space).

I just don't see the point of this. One can surely buy a decent mobile phone for 100 U.S.D. And an 8 gig iPod nano for 250. That's 350 U.S.D. Far less than the 500 to 600 U.S.D. And pictures? Well, you can grab a camera that has somewhat better quality for another 100 U.S.D. So right there, you have paid less for the three combined (and some of those things of better quality) than the iPhone.

That isn't even going into my philosphy of 'your world consisting of Mp3 players should nto be limited to Apple' and 'mobie phones are there for calling and sending text messages'. If you go with this mentality of mine, you can possibly get all of that stuff for 300 U.S.D.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Nowadays, they not only have phones that play music, but videos and record movies as well. Quality wise...it's OK. In truth, getting an iPod nano and a mobile phone/camera combination is also a good, seemingly cheaper, alternative for those who don't want to have to be running around with too many things.


So yes, I see your point. The thing is though, for an iPhone, the camera's quality seems rather weak. Like the photos you take won't be that great anyway and if you want a decent one, you'll still need a camera. Or get a better mobile phone/camera combination and listen to an iPod nano instead (yeah, made that suggestion a second time!)

There's nowhere I can't reach.
