it has been a interesting time since the Jesus Phone was released. I was very happy to see this phone come out and watch the reaction. Again, Apple has shown that if you create a revolutionary interface, people will forgive other faults. The Iphone isn't perfect but it is pretty freaking sweet.
The battle to unlock the phone has been pretty fierce. I had predicted a new market of Iphone unlocking businesses and soon enough we had the first Iphone sw unlock. I will not give you the links but go to gizmodo.com and search for Iphone. LOTS of info there. Infact, they have a filter to remove all Iphone posts for folks sick of the iphone jibber jabber.
Anyway, Apple released a new update that caused sw unlocked iphones to be useless! ! TORPEDO and the sw unlock biz gets shot to death.
Apple has been very protective of the Iphone. I will not use the other words that people have used but suffice to say they were a lot stronger. "No 3rd party apps" they said initially.
Now they intend to ease that door open a little bit more. I don't know why they didn't tihnk to do this. FOlks would pay to have that nw fangled prog on their Iphone. These folks already paid $500 for their phone anyway..
DOnt get m started on the Iphone credit. That was brilliant.
Anyway, I still haven't gotten a Iphone cuz I am not crazy enuf to spend that much money on a phone. I also can't switch networks.. I will bid my time. A better Iphone will arise and when it meets my terms, I will pounce. til then, I will lust from a distance.
