Members starsnuffer Posted January 9, 2007 Members Share Posted January 9, 2007 Originally posted by Fl00 they just announced it: 5 hours 5 hours of battery life for video-related functions isn't exactly my idea of a 'good product'. :/also: price just announced:8GB model - $5994GB model - $499ahahaha there's no way i'm ever buying one Um, my chocolate only has 31/2 hours, with about 6 hours of playtime. The iphone has 16 of playback. remember, most of the time your phone is idle, any phone can stay "on" for days if you don't use it. the price point looks really competitive. I'm getting one. -W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Elric Posted January 9, 2007 Members Share Posted January 9, 2007 Originally posted by Fl00 they just announced it also: price just announced URL for all of these announcements, please. What I REALLY want is an 80GB HD Sony PSP with TV Out. That would p3wn the iPOD. I just want my phone to be a phone. The PSP already has 802.11b and headset capability, though, so theoretically it could be a VoiP machine in a pinch. Unfortunately, Satan runs Sony.

Members code_blue Posted January 9, 2007 Members Share Posted January 9, 2007 That price isn't too far from a freakin laptop.They should just shrink laptops instead of try and rebuild them adding each piece at a time. I dunno.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't been a huge fan of Razrs just because I don't like Motorola's interface and the thin flip thing always makes me feel like I'm going to snap it. The prices on this sucker will drop as screen prices and flash memory drops. I wish we could make sweet, cheap OLED screens already. It has been on the horizon for a few years now...I wonder how they're gonna deal with the nasty finger grease that's going to get all over that nice screen.

Sell you a 40oz, $15 bottle of polish and claim that it doesn't scratch easily at all?

I wouldn't even have a cell phone if I could help it. Apple started as the ultimate innovator with the Apple II. Did it again with the macintosh. The ipod is one hell of an innovation I'd say. The controls were another amazing innovation. This thing seems to be in a league of its own. I don't know a phone or PDA that uses touch controls in this way. The fact that over 200 patents are pending for INVENTIONS in this iphone is enough proof that Apple is indeed THE innovator. If this isn't innovation, I don't know what is.

And there's no way in hell I'll be buying one of those. Don't need it, and too expensive. But your claim about it not being innovating is simply untrue. I'm sensing you have a problem with apple.
