In the same vein, I've been saying lately that people who think the iPhone is just one phone among many are just like people who thought the a computer was just another typewriter.
Ohh, wow. I just said something by Jim "Bear Sterns is fine" Cramer was great. A broken clock and all that.
"people who think the iPhone is just one phone among many"
The funny thing is, I use my iPhone maybe 5% to make voice calls. For me it's an ultra-portable PC, mainly used for email+web. So when people do say things like "It's just a phone", they really do completely miss the point.
Everyone that has held and used my iPhone has desired to purchase one. Several have, and it's not even available in Canada.
Why would you buy another mp3 player other than an iPod? Why would you buy another phone other than an iPhone? To think 5 years ago I was an Apple hater...they have really stepped up their game.
I have a few friends that work as product managers at RIM, I have used practically every device they have made with a zillion types of keyboards and keypads.
I can type way faster on my iPhone, but I do have to look at it to type. They can type on BB's without looking. The auto-correction on the iPhone is amazing...it takes into account my fat fingers.
Who wants swappable memory cards, or batteries? I have voice recording on my iPhone. Radio reception might be nice but there are some external addons for ipods.
I guess it depends a lot on the individual user, but Apple products work well for the masses.
Wrong. It's easy to think that keyboard typing would be better than touch screen typing, but try an iPhone.
It's actually better than a small keyboard would be. It's not that much slower than typing on a laptop keyboard.
