Apple introduces iPhone

January 10th, 2007 by Mike

IphoneYes, Steve Jobs, CEO Apple introduced the much awaited iPhone. It will be launched this summer, June 2007 to be exact and would retail for $499. Expensive isn’t it, but for a cell phone, media player and portable computer all in one, the price seems to be ok.

The above price is for a 4GB model, where as the 8GB model will cost $599 with a 2 year contract with not so popular Cingular service.

The device looks really amazing with a beautiful 3.5-inch widescreen display, touch controls that lets you enjoy all media including music, videos, audiobooks, movies and TV shows.

IPhone also has a 2.0 mega pixel camera, Full Mac OS X, along with Wi-Fi 802.11b/g and Bluetooth 2.0. Now on the phone side it’s a quad band technology supporting the 800/900/1800/1900 MHz bands. Unfortunately or you can say surprisingly it doesn’t support 3G.

Well now what does Microsoft have up its sleeve? Microsoft will add games to zune and could possibly release a zune phone to compete Apple’s iPhone by mid-2008.

One user even went ahead and said set zune free by providing Divx, Xvid, AVI, Ogg, wireless streaming, wireless syncing, and wireless downloading. What are your thoughts?

    I don’t see the practicality in attempting to compete with the iPhone using the function neutered Zune. Influencing Smart Phone manufacturers to bumpup storage capacity and adding a Mini Media Center app would take less energy and give consumers the choice of downloadable media sources.
