The world watched the live blogs and ran home to watch the videos Apple made available after announcing their new baby, the iPhone 4. We all had thought this thing would be called iPhone HD or something equally cliche, but it’s simple, just iPhone 4.
Like Apple fans and tech freaks a like, we sat at our cubies and bit our nails hoping for the announcements of Apple TV and a new iLife Suite. Predictions of Mac upgrades and looks at a new operating system were in the air as well. Apple did not surprise us on Monday, but it did hook us again. The video calling and awesome HD camera was the tipping point. Multi-tasking and more pixels are an added bonus, but for those whom own a 3G or non smart phone the camera and video were HUGE.
People will always say, other phones have better cameras so why don’t you go with them? Well, as simply as I can summarize; we love the iPhone. It’s easy to use, it’s a status symbol, I already have tons of apps for the one I have. There is something elegant and smart about this phone that just works. Overall it’s easier to jump into a iPhone and hit the ground running than it is on any other phone.
Sure AT&T gets it wrong sometimes, but Apple gets it right most of the time.
