Tech luster your wait is almost over. Tomorrow, June 29th, Apple releases its much anticipated iPhone. Sidekick III owners hide your faces, there's a new status symbol in town.
The latest gem from the good people a Apple is not only a cell phone, but a music player with video, that also surfs the Internet. Yes I said surf, not browse and it gives you the real Internet, fresh squeezed not from concentrate.
The iPhone also has a sexy touch screen that allows for navigating through its 12 icons (one of which is a link to youtube). It also has a camera and with a price tag close to $500 ( plus a monthly bill of $60 plus) the phone cooks you dinner and hold you tenderly at night.
Wait...what? It doesn't do that?
It in fact will not do the laundry and dirty dishes? Oh well at least it has a dope flat crystal clear touch screen and the ability to fade out music when a call comes in.
According to Cat Schwartz, the gadget director for eBay, " This phone is going to be a status symbol. If you're walking down the street with an iPhone, people will be looking at you."
No doubt carrying the iPhone makes you an instant baller ( or baahhller according to the Dipset crew), but people will be looking at you to potentially rob you. Unless of course you're a faux baller and pawned your PS3, so now all you have is an iPhone. Who am I kidding you might get robbed just for the iPhone. Don't let that be a deterrent by any means, go ahead get your iPhone ( if you can).
Apple is once again genius with its marketing strategies and much props to AT&T for locking in that monopoly.
Right now the iPhone gets a "yeah aiight" from me, but that's only because I can't afford it. It does however have the potential to give the Blackberry, Palm and Sidekick a thorough ass kicking, if it were only more affordable.
