Peenote

I’ve been looking for a different angle or issue or anecdote to post about the announcements during the MacWorld keynote address yesterday, without jumping on the ‘OMFG-the-iPhone-is-so-kewl’ bandwagon. Yes, the iPhone is totally bitchin’, I just have to go a different way. Here it is:
- Peenote
- “A Steve Jobs keynote that is so highly anticipated that people will pee their pants when the announcements are made.”
Heck, the only apple product I have is my new iPod and I pee’d a little reading a live blog of the address. Unfortunately, or fortunately because of the price, I can’t get one because we don’t have Cingular in Montana. However, it appears to be a very impressive piece of technology, one I’d likely purchase were I to move to a town with Cingular, despite the well-documented customer-service nightmare that is Cingular.
Update: Upon further consideration, the best thing about the iPhone is how it will hopefully force the other cellphone makers to up their game. One commentator mentioned how great the iPhone is for design in general. I can only hope he’s right and we see the same trickle-down design that we did with the iMac and iPod.
