“A widescreen video iPod, a phone and an advanced internet communicating device”- this is how Steven Jobs described the long
expected phone from Apple. What impact will it have on the company’s most popular product? I remember that when Apple’s co-founder began his presentation of the iPhone, he mentioned first the widescreen video iPod, just like in the beginning of this article. But the announcement didn’t get so many cheers as the one about the craved and much rumored iPhone, despite the fact that the pre-Macworld 2007 rumor mill included the widescreen video iPod among the possible presentations.
I will not insist on whether Apple should have pleased its fans with more products at this year’s Macworld. Steve Jobs already did the trick with comprising three expected products in just one, and the idea that Apple enters the mobile world is revolutionary enough (not to mention the Apple Computer- Apple Inc. switch).
