Amazon.com: Amazon Current's Amazon Blog



My friends and I have all been lusting over the iPhone since its existence was first mentioned. Here's an article that says it might not be worth the price tag. But then again, maybe it will.

At any rate, it's a pretty hefty price tag. $650? Plus the subscription fee? For that price, I may elect to continue to carry my iPod, my lifedrive, and my cell phone. It only comes in 4 GB and 8Gb storage capacities anyway, and my LifeDrive has 4. And I think my LifeDrive does every bit as much. Provided it's coupled with my phone. And the video iPod comes in 80GB versions. How much video could you put on an 8GB phone? Not so much. So it seems it wouldn't really place the video iPod. (Not that I have one of those.)

Sure is pretty, though.

Anway, I'd be the guy to leave it behind at a hotel somewhere.
The point at the end of the article is that the iPhone will do well despite that the technology isn't all that new - it's just better. There were mp3 players before the iPod. Apple just did it better. Better interfaces. Easier to get to your information. More user-friendly.


But it would make me cool.

Um....why would you leave it behind a hotel? Why would you be behind a hotel? I'd be more concerned with why you were behind there in the first place....and that whole making you look cool thing?...well.....hmmm....ANYWAY...is that nun on the "Champion" website? Me and Ms. D want to know, cause that's how we be looking at it....
