Apple to release iPhone? (1 Viewer)

[BIGTYMA]

In countries around the world Apple is trademarking the name iPhone. More interestingly the website iphone.org redirects you the Apple website. Seems like Apple is gearing up for a release. More info at http://www.appleinsider.com/article.php?id=2145

I've been waiting for Apple to do this actually.

I'd wait for a few "iphone" generations over before I buy one.

I go for a phone that makes phone calls and plays messages.

Similarly, an mp3 player that plays songs.

I don't want an mp3 player that irradiates me all the time (yes I know the phone does, but that assumes you carry it everywhere).

Oh for the love of god no.

Musk: I'd put money on it not being a flop, only because everyone who owns an ipod will be like OMGTRENDYIMUSTHAVEONEOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG.

This rumour has been bandied about for ages now. More importantly, is the news from Apple that the next iPod will have a touchscreen and will be out before Christmas.

A bit quick for a release, just after the 80gig(and etc) release.

I'd like it a lot if ipods were able to do something like store powerpoint presentations, and be able to screen them like they do with video.

Ipod's not a piece of junk. I admit this is the second ipod, and the first I kept safe with all my heart because I earned every painful cent of it... but its flaws seems to have faded with each generation of ipods.

I already use my ipod to present my music presentations as well as use it to explain to people what I want achieved in the music I compose. Also, its ability to stereo-record is absolutely awesome. I don't need to lug around 50x the weight of what I'd usually need to carry to record music.

My friend's dad who's a massive photographer (he does politician's weddings, celebrities etc) uses the ipod to present a mini portfolio when he doesn't have his real portfolio around. Its a good boost to those in the media/entertainment/arts sector.

We do a bit of multimedia at uni, so the video part could really be of great use for me soon, when it gets demanding.

I really like these recent advancements...

Interesting.

Good move really. They will try and target the same iPod market which is teenagers. Way too many kids have Nokias anyway.

Get into the market share I sayz.

IK'll keep with SE though, thank you very fucking much.
