Watered Down

I really try not to fall into the hype of the iPhone but with all of it’s failings (no 3G or GPS support) its innovations are what’s going to make it standout. Who knows it could be a bust, yeah right.

Just look at the video after the break. It’s the browser that I want. I know a lot of tablet’s are out right now but non are doing it like this. And then there’s the UI.

I’m just glad their actually showing how awesome the UI is rather than doing some dumb “Hi I’m a BlackBerry” ad. Because showing off the UI should be their main point for the iPhone. The same goes for OS X but maybe they’re going to finally start advertising the UI in Leopard.

I only wish it was either $300 or just an iPod with WiFi. Who knows it could be $300 and sport a 60gb drive in just another year.

About the Author, Dan Cameron:

I'm the owner and solution engineer at Sprout Venture, a web solutions company that specializes in web development including WordPress.

I started my first blog in 2003 and transitioned to WordPress in 2004. Since moving to WordPress I've written a few plugins and themes for public consumption. Lately I'm busy engineering/building/coding and have only been able to share a few code snippets.

If you're in need of some web development, web design or custom WordPress plugins and/or themes contact me, I'll be happy to discuss it with you.

  • I guess potential iPhone developers are upset because 3rd party apps will be contained within Safari, sort of the way Dashboard widgets are in OS X. I can see how it would be preferable to be able to develop standalone apps, but considering it was looking like Apple was going to close the iPhone off from 3rd party development completely, I guess it's better than nothing.

    Since iPhone supports IMAP and now that Kerio MailServer talks to iCal and Address Book, it's actually a little tempting. Put in at least a 60GB drive and drop the price by $200 and I'll turn in my BlackBerry and make a beeline for the Cingular store.
