now they release this news, hmmmm. They knew this the whole time. 8:31AM Apple says iPhone delivers up to eight hours of talk time (AAPL) 120.50 : Co announces that iPhone will deliver significantly longer battery life when it ships on June 29 than was originally estimated when iPhone was unveiled in Jan. iPhone will feature up to 8 hours of talk time, 6 hours of Internet use, 7 hours of video playback, or 24 hours of audio playback. In addition, iPhone will feature up to 250 hours -- more than 10 days -- of standby time. Apple also announced that the entire top surface of iPhone has been upgraded from plastic to optical-quality glass. (Briefing.com note: Some of the recent criticism of the upcoming iPhone centered around it's relatively short amount of talk time. AAPL had originally stated that the iPhone would have 5 hours of talk time.)
Never says never; I was in the same boat when apple introduced the ipod; now I got 2 ipods in my house. Crazy kids.
Well, I have no plans on it.... I've avoided the ipod since it came out, even while I ran my own PC retail company for 6 years.... The phone, I just see no darn need for it, other than to pad investors pockets.
It's a wannabe PDA. That's it. Maybe they'll challenge the market and create new inroads for professionals...but I think they'll have a hard time overtaking Palm, MS, and RIMM for PDA...especially since they're devoted to AT&T only...companies aren't going to suddenly switch carriers so people can all have Iphones...it's fucking stupid to think so. Will they sell a lot of them to kids, probably. Will they find a sustainable market of buyers who can afford that much for the cell phone? I don't think so...we'll see, but I highly doubt it because all the other phone developers are going to take the idea, bite it, and do it their own way and people just won't switch carriers.
