Live Macworld 2007 Keynote Coverage

the yahoo bit doesn't impress me - I hope its easy enough to use any of our other email providers..

 

[RichP]

I think this thing is going to cost....1 million dollars!

Glad to see they addressed internet browsing..its a real weak point with most phones. (Amongst many weak points!)

 

[baby duck monge]

My pocketbook is still hoping on 400, but my brain is telling me more.

I'm telling you, I would be surprised at anything under $700 or so. Happy, but surprised.

 

[Diatribe]

No mail.app???

Correction... it has PUSH IMAP... how sweet.

 

[clevin]

i begin to worry about battery. how long can it hold? 10 hrs?

 

[baby duck monge]

Nice email + phonebook integration.

[Jasonbot]

Notice they say "iPod connector" not dock connestor.

ALso: nayone know how long it is, the keynote i mean??

 

[YoNeX]

Am I the only one suprised they didn't implemented the .mac for their phone?

 

[benthewraith]

Steve, you've spent 40 minutes discussing a phone. Move on, please, there's other toys we want to see.

a hour?

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that they will claim around 12. More in standby. Mostly pulling that out of my arse, but I'm thinking about iPods with a bigger battery and more drain.

Its not exclusive to Cingular, thus far, we only know that the sim inside the phone is a Cingular sim

 

[Pointbreakd]

Contacts and mail integration really is awesome. I really wonder about the battery life and price too. I mean is this thing gonna cost a grand? It has to be at least $600 which is more than I'm will to spend.

 

[bearbo]

it's a great device and all... but i have to agree there is nothing TOO revolutionary about this... and there is nothing revolutionary about the address book (that he claimed there is?)

 

[daneoni]

All that in a thin package, how the h*l did they do it!. I WANT ONE NOW!!!

 

[Diatribe]

.Mac will probably have PUSH IMAP too.

If it's over $700 I think they're going to really cut down on their sales. They need to price with their competitors in mind - although this is better than what's already out there (via blackberry/palm), those options have sufficed so far, and are pretty popular - people won't switch over to Apple if they're charging twice as much.

 

[colocolo]

What are you looking for? For the thing to use subspace to transmit the signal?

Lol. First time I actually laugh in this site in 5+ years. I was thinking something similar.. what the hell does he want!

 

[imacdaddy]

I am not saying it's not good, but what is revolutionary about it?

No other phone or pda can do what it does and does better.

B-b-b-b-but touching! And email and phone! And pictures! Meh, mostly it's just pretty and well-integrated.

I bet it uses flash memory instead of an HD. Woudl be cool if flash was upgradable.

 

[bearbo]

a hour?

it's been a hr and 24 minutes, it will be 2 hrs long.

No word about battery life ????

Solar power!
