Apple Announces the iPhone

Just finished watching Apple’s Keynote Presentation and their announcement of the new iPhone. Here’s a snippit from the newly launched website.

“iPhone combines three products — a revolutionary mobile phone, a widescreen iPod with touch controls, and a breakthrough Internet communications device with desktop-class email, web browsing, maps, and searching — into one small and lightweight handheld device. iPhone also introduces an entirely new user interface based on a large multi-touch display and pioneering new software, letting you control everything with just your fingers. So it ushers in an era of software power and sophistication never before seen in a mobile device, completely redefining what you can do on a mobile phone.”

Honestly, I think I will wait a bit to get one since first round hardware usually has bugs. Dunno though, it sure does look cool.

Apple’s Mighty Mouse

I have to admit it took some getting used to, but Apple’s Wireless Mighty Mouse is just awesome! It took me a few hours to get used to the ‘virtual buttons’ but once I got the hang of it, I was whizzing around my Mac with ease and speed. I also just love the ‘wireless’ aspect. Holy Cow! I never realized how annoying a mouse cord was until I didn’t have one to lug around.

I’m not much of a fan of the thumb pad thing on any laptop and I never really liked the one button idea, but with essentially three buttons and a 360 degree scrolling ball, I’m in love!

Bluetooth Rocks! (Keep it up Apple)
