Apple iPhone
Ok, so its true, Apple released their rumored iphone, and I must say, it is damn impressive. I have long said that the future of computer interface was multi-touch displays, think Minority report, but not quite as high tech. Recently, an MIT researcher revealed a large format touch screen, with impressive results. Today, Apple revealed a miniature version. The iphone uses multi-touch controls for the whole thing, again, with impressive results. Part phone, part ipod video, and smart phone, it frankly does damn near everything, and probably will do everything once people start writing programs for it. The only flaws I have seen; it is strictly a cingular phone service, and it is $499, that is WITH a two-year contract!! Hell I would be tempted to buy the thing if it wasn’t for the contract issue, sigh.
