So Apple announced the iPhone yesterday.  Its not much of a phone, in fact more than anything its a mini-computer that happens to do telephony.  Its the most amazing device – I predict that soon it will work as a remote control for my Apple TV device.  And by ‘my’ I mean the one that I lustfully wish that I would own.  Some day maybe.  But I think that the new iPhone is truly one of the most innovative devices because it does integrate so much more than any other phone, it has an interface that blows me away, and frankly, for the power that it offers, is worth the $499.00 price tag (or $599.00 if you get more storage capacity).

If Apple lets developers write applications (and I think they will) then we’re going to see people doing amazing things on that phone.  My inner-geek is on overdrive.  Jessica is tired of hearing me talk about it.  I want to be able to surf the net, chat on the phone, text message and listen to music all on the same device – and have the interface look good, too.  RIM (who makes the blackberry) is really probably dreading June when the device will be available on the market.
