iPhone

Apple's new iPhone is beautiful. As with most of Apple's stuff they've done everything you can really imagine to make it productive. Although what amazes me most isn't the phone, but why no one has done all this stuff before. None of it is difficult or particularly brilliant. It feels like the inevitable outcome of sticking a few smart people in a room for a couple of months. It's almost like every other company in the world is frightened of coming up with something new. Like anything that hasn't been done before is dangerous. The industry leaves these gaping functionality holes in their products so that Apple can waltz in and blow them all away with almost no effort at all. I suppose Apple have the size to make risky investments feasible, but virtually all of them pay off. You'd would think that others might have cottoned on by now.

It's a very nice phone though. I'd buy one. And after getting my new Nokia 1110 I'm pretty hard to impress.
