iSick
i seem to be in the minority when i say i don't want an iphone. and really, i don't want one, my blackberry is fine and dandy. plus, with all the hype that's been surrounding the item, i want it even less! i do have to say that their original teevee advert for it, aired during the oscars, was awesome, but that's just because i love movies.
that malls and apple stores have had to hire security guards to tame the crowds makes me roll my eyes. it's a phone, fercryingoutloud.
it's news that steve wozniak is waiting in line for an iphone when there was a potential TERROR PLOT unveiled today.
thus, iSick of hearing about the iPhone.
(lis, hope you were able to get one!)
It's the adult equivalent of the Tickle Me Elmo frenzy, etc. It'll be forgotten a few months after the phone comes out, whenever the new hot thing comes out.
ReplyDeleteI think it's a really cool idea, but honestly all the shit they advertise with it (music, internet, etc) will probably cost tons of money in extras and who has all that money? Some people will just be walking around with this iPhone that just dials numbers and receives texts. What's the point of spending tons of money and time for that?
ReplyDeleteplus! the screen probably gets all greasy from your face. I hate that.
ReplyDeletei think it looks nifty, but i'm not getting one. MAAAAYBE in two or three years.
ReplyDeletedavid pogue, the tech columnist for the new york times, had a cute video review of it:

So far it is everything i hoped it would be. =) The screen cleans pretty easily although I'm going to get a skin anyway. It was a blast waiting in line too I have to say. The people were really cool.
