Now the rumors can rest. Apple has announced an iPod, a phone, an internet mobile communicator and they're NOT three separate devices. "And we are calling it iPhone!"
"And the third is a breakthrough internet communications device."
"An iPod, a phone, an internet mobile communicator. An iPod, a phone, an internet mobile communicator.... these are NOT three separate devices!"
Jobs is describing the problems that current phones have and is slowly elaborating on the interface that Apple's iPhone will have: "Get rid of all the buttons, and just make a giant screen. So how are we going to communicate? We're going to use a stylus -- no. Who wants a stylus?? Yuck!"
Jobs talks about a new technology called Multi-Touch that involves using our fingers but ignores touches, mutli-finger gestures, etc. And what's more, the iPhone runs on OS X, the much-loved Apple's operating system. This might be the next step after Apple's revolutionary clickwheel on their iPod.
The phone syncs with contacts, calendars, photos, notes, bookmarks, email accounts, etc. It comes with a 160ppi 3.5 inch screen and just one 'home' button. It is super-slim - 11.6mm and wait, a 2-mega pixel camera to boot. Sounds real cool. Just in time for when I am deciding to buy a new phone. Forget Google, Apple seems likely to rule the world now.
