Ok, what do you guys think about this phone. I don't know about you, but I think Apple has no business in the cell phone industry. We all know how hard it is to make a phone. Even LG (a manufacturer that's been in the industry for years now) drops the ball here and there. I don't expect great things about the iPhone due to this. 😢 Could I be wrong? Time will tell...
Feel free to open up and discuss... 😎 I got some fresh coffee and cookies in the back... 😁

apple has a way of being very innovative, and they are great at marketing their products. iphone should be no different.

I don't think HTC was around when they started talking about the iPhone.

Just because they've worked with Motorola in the past, doesn't mean this device will be a collaboration. Apple gained experience from working with Motorola in the past, which gave them some feedback on the handset market. Now they know what to expect and how to best market it to consumers.

More than likely this is just a phone that Apple designed, and then hired someone else to build. This happens all the time in cell phones. Whatever the result, it should be something innovative. The two battery idea (one for music and one for the cell phone) is simple, needed in a music phone, and this phone will definitely have it. It's the small touches apple thinks of t...

oh, and u can be damn sure that there will be a 3.5mm headphone jack on the iphone!


any phone without a 3.5mm jack has no business being called a music phone.
