Think about it. If it's taking pictures, it's not a cellphone. If it has a McDonald's app to tell you where McDonald's is based on your GPS location, that's not a cellphone. If you can get Wikipedia or go to Google, that's not a cellphone.
Here's what a phone is: It's a computer that has a little app on it that allows me to dial numbers and then talk to someone.
New iPod. It looks like an iPhone but it can't make phone calls. So its really just an iPhone.
We want to reinvent the phone. What's the killer app? The killer app is making calls! It's amazing how hard it is to make calls on most phones. We want to let you use contacts like never before - sync your iPhone with your PC or mac.
I've tried plenty of telephones. I tried to get into the Samsung Galaxy and the Blackberry, but the iPhone is just too easy to use. The camera takes clear pictures and the phone itself looks great. Like all Apple products, it kind of just makes sense.
The iPod Touch is basically an iPhone with the phone part taken out, which is fine - since making calls is the one thing that the iPhone doesn't actually do very well.
Folding in is better than folding out. Folding out is cool, and it looks potentially better… but I don't think that's the way to use a folding phone.
I don't need my phone to play me music. I need it to be a phone and an e-mail thing.
If you get rid of music, images, videos, words and literature from the smartphone, you just have a simple phone that would be worth $50.
