Apple IPHONE 8GB

I don't know why so many people are knocking the iPhone just because it might not boast the best specifications around – look at the Nintendo Wii, which at a spec-for-spec comparison is nowhere near as powerful or sophisticated than the Xbox 360 or the new PlayStation, but it's outselling both platforms by a country mile. Why? Because it’s so intuitive, easy to use, and above all, fun.

/>Same argument applies to the iPhone – it might not be as powerful as the N95 or the Viewty or whatever, but it makes up for this due to the fact that it is just such a great piece of technology to use. I've seen people in O2 shops just going in and being able to pick up an iPhone and play with it instantly without needing any customer assistance.

Similarly, after I bought mine, I've not once consulted the manual on how to make use of the functions as I’ve not needed to. Everything you need from a mobile device is quite literally at your fingertips.

I’m sure that in a few years time this version of the iPhone will be outclassed by a newer, more sophisticated version with a better camera and faster net access (I have to admit that the lack of 3G is a real pain), but I don’t really see how Apple can improve on the interface, which is the real strength of the iPhone. Fundamentally, it'll pretty much remain unchanged.

Consider how rudimentary the original iPods are in comparison to models such as the new 80GB ones, but (with the obvious exception of the iPod Touch, which is essentially an iPhone sans a phone) one thing remains a constant – the click wheel.

You could buy a more powerful and this year, you won't buy one that's as user friendly or as immediately accessible.

Its rubbish,total junk if im honest,unless your a proper apple fanboy,its a joke.Got mine 2months ago,biggest disaster ever,it just doesnt do anything usefull.Ok interface is second to none,web browsing is good,when you get on it that is,but thats all.Music ok,but a sony ericsson us just as good.My lad has a sony,walkman on that works just as good.But,my lad's phone has more features,a lot more.So whats the point having a fancy phone when its out done by an ordinary one.It junk total junk.
