!! Apple is KILLING IT RIGHT NOW !!

"an entirely new user interface based on a large multi-touch display and pioneering new software, letting you control everything with just your fingers"

WTF

I've played with these multi-touch interfaces and they are incredible. It's all really intuitive, and it's able to detect and ignore 'false' touches. All in all -

Shame I'm poor and have 1.5 years left on my Sprint contract...

[skier666]

Too me this is the best thing they could have done...

"iPhone is a quad-band GSM + EDGE phone." No 3G! "We have WiFi and Bluetooth 2.0"

For some reason I hate Apple...don't know why. I should be a fanboy growing up in Silicon Valley and all. The truth is...if this thing was branded Samsung, I'd probably get this thing. I wonder how much Cingular paid to get the exclusivity...its got to be a mind-numbing figure.

Like Arty said about the google thing...that's pretty killer for a gadget whore like myself. The only problem I see with it is the durability. Its thin, and has a massive screen. You sit on it wrong, its toast. You take a fall skiing its toast. But then again, I could use a different phone for riding. Battery life is probably pretty grim as well.

If they can make the internet work like that video it would be worth every penny. The net on my Razr is worse than worthless.

[smmokan]

Stock is already at 92.05.

does anyone know when cingular's exclusive expires?

I read multi-year, but that was the most detail I saw...

I was under the impression that a law was recently enacted by the US copyright folks that allows users to "unlock" any phone, therefor using it on any network. In fact, I know this to be true as my fiance had a SPRINT only phone, and now uses the same phone on her Verizon network.

As far as this is concerned, maybe they are getting around that new law by promoting this as a VOIP product, or more or less an internet device that just happens to be a phone as well...or perhaps they are going to be selling it, but you can then bring the iPhone to another provider...

we shall see....

Question is, how long will that screen last? Ipods are notorious for getting scratched to shit if you breath on it incorrectly.

[descender]

I am just not cool enough for apple products. My reflection would make this instantly explode.

this is just part of the sales model..

iPods make all the iPod accessory makers a shit ton of money. just more of the same with the iPhone. i expect cases, lanyards, pogs, gold braclets, strapons... you name it they will make it for the iPhone.

as for the cingular only and un-locking... in the keynote there was mention of how intigrated the network needs to be with the phone to make all this happen. not sure if un-locking would get the job done. we'll have to wait and see.

it is a very exciting product tho. i won't be an early adoptor with this one tho. gonna see how she does before dropping $500. can't wait!

[jed peters]

holy shit. Come to daddy.

That shit he announced is TIGHT.

[The Dad]

If the Apple TV included storage expansion, DVR capability and HD inputs, I'd be all over it.

[adam]

How stoked am I that I bought Apple pre split for 22 bucks a share??

How sad is it that I dumped it at 23?

[jibij]

They knocked it clear out of the park with that UI. Un freekin believable.

[gbarnum]

But snowboarders like the Zune and can swap tunes on the chairlift. Said so in the ad.

Apple would be killing it right now if I could hook my PS2 up to my 20" iMac and play NCAA Football on the widescreen.
