Apple
For the first time in awhile I am intrigued by a gadget. The iPhone thing seems like a leap forward. I use my cellphone maybe three times a month. Much less than when I was coaching (or when Kasey was pregnant). Why? I dont really have anyone to call (and I dont really answer the phone). Its expensive, and cumbersome.
Will the iPhone change some of this? Or will it be more of a WiFi situation with all these cities erecting WiFi hubs? I do know that almost every student carries a cellphone, and that we are ignoring a huge resource. So many of our classes and teachers have little access to computers, but we refuse to say “take out your phone”. Will an iPhone-portable hard drive-phone-iPod thing change all this?
I agree with previous posts. Apple has had some flops before. If the iPod wasnt so successful nobody would be paying attention to any of this.

If it works half as well as the demo, it will be something. How do you live without a mobile phone…

My current job I don’t need it. I leave it in my car. If someone really needs me, they can find me. I remember a previous boss who refused to carry a walkie-talkie during school. “Brandt, they won’t give me a moments peace if I carry that thing”.
