iPhone
So announced today’s at Apple’s Keynote is the upcoming release of the Apple iPhone.
I must admit, this thing looks sweet!
Here are the specs:
- It’s a full featured WIDESCREEN iPod. So, if you thought watching movies on your iPod was cool, imagine them on a wider screen. Plus, you can listen to music, sync music from your computer, and listen to audiobooks.
- It is a completely new concept phone. All the features are there, but improved. You can create a favorites list, make calls from contacts, or recent call lists all by using your finger. (sure, you can you use finger on Treo’s and Pocket PC devices too).
- Internet browsing on this looks great. It includes a mobile version of Safari (hopefully not as slow as the real Safari), and according to Apple, desktop quality email.
- 2 megapixel camera
That is just the beginning.
I read elsewhere that this device will use EDGE. I am surprised that it is not 3G. Maybe they will change that by the time it is officially released. 3G would really be nice for browsing on a screen like that.
I think I saw that there will be a 4gb and 8gb version priced between $499 and $599, but don’t quote me!
It will be interesting to see, that is for sure.
