Second Generation Iphone: It Is Better To Reserve Judgment Till Facts Become Clearer

Tuesday, May 5th, 2009

According to latest information released with regard to the iPhone, it is believed that this year (2008) there should be two new releases of the iPhone seen with one being a major release while the other would be of a minor nature. However, though these new releases will hit the market in the year 2008, none of them will have the same import as the original iPhone, though of course one of these new releases will certainly have something to do with the second generation iPhone.

In fact, the second generation iPhone that everyone is so taken up by is in fact in its final stages as far as design goes and though the form of the new product would be similar to existing iPhones, there may actually be a radically changed look in the new product, and it will also have some third generation capability as well.

Rumors Abound

Still, rumors abound with regard to the release of the second generation iPhone and one of the rumors that is currently doing the rounds relates to Commercial Times that informs us that a company from Taiwan named Wintek has in fact been chosen to make touch screen panels for the second generation iPhone. Furthermore, the same newspaper informs us that the second generation iPhone will in fact be shipped in September 2008 and the cost of such second generation iPhone would range from between two hundred forty-nine dollars to a shade under three hundred dollars.

There is in fact enough reason to believe these reports and in fact one should even expect that around five million second generation iPhones will be shipped in the month of September though such products will sport differences in outer design.

Another piece of news with regard to the second generation iPhone is that Apple is planning to offer such versions in the markets other than in the United States. The same Commercial Times as too the Economic Daily News informs us that a company known as Quanta Computer will be the major manufacturer who will in fact, be producing the expected five million second generation iPhones.

In fact, according to Quanta Computer’s own press release, the company confirms that such an order has indeed been placed by Apple though it fell short of terming their product as second generation iPhone. However, rather than have too high expectations with regard to this new offering from Apple, it pays to remember that there is not much difference in this new generation iPhone from its earlier predecessor other than the change in outer design.

What’s more, there is even reason to believe that in fact this whole story actually alludes to the production of a second version rather than second generation product and so, it would be wise to reserve your judgment till such time as more concrete news becomes available.

The Iphone and Web Browsing

Monday, April 28th, 2008

iphone

Research shows that a surprising number of Apple iPhone users, around 85% regularly browse the web as well on their iPhones, which is much more than the average, even for owners of smartphones. Thus, web browsing on iPhone seems to be a much more pleasant experience for the users.

Finding Information Through Technology

The web can be navigated on iPhones, using Safari, the web browser of Mac OS X for example as well, and many users report the ease of use that Safari and generally the Apple iPhone provides for them. What is of primary importance is that users do not have to browse simplified, dumbed-down versions of web pages, they can see everything one would normally see on a normal-sized screen. Everything is much smaller, and users generally have to zoom in to see the web page in more details.

However, they can get used to flipping through the pages quite easily, as the touchscreen of Apple iPhone proves to be highly use-friendly. It is moreover also of quite great importance that the resolution of the iPhone screen is around the double of other smartphones, thus pictures and generally the browsed sites will be nice, vivid and easy to see.

One major disadvantage though seems to be that the phones do not yet support flash technology. Thus many sites can simply not be downloaded, one will either be redirected to a non-flash version of the site or will have to realize that the web browsing experience on an iPhone can not yet be totally satisfying.

Text Input

The experience of browsing the web is generally substantially influenced by he extent of ease and speed one can write. Iphone utilizes a virtual keyboard technology for text input. While some can not at all get used to the experience of this virtual keyboard and the initial unease it takes to get used to it, even some iPhone accessories have been designed to make typing easier, some consider it a worthwhile effort and on the whole assert that the virtual keyboard is fully useable and is quite innovative.

Third-party Web Application

It was originally announced when launching iPhone that it would support third-party applications through its web browser, Safari. So far, though Apple has not fully supported any third party applications, some are already available. Moreover, with the release of Apple’s software development kit, various supported applications will foreseeably make the web browsing experience even more enjoyable.

The Long Awaited 4gb iPhone

Sunday, March 30th, 2008

IphoneNova

Surrounding the unveiling of the 4gb iPhone was a considerable amount of expectation, enthusiasm and excitement. The iPhone was to be an all in one communication device with the icing on the top being the incorporation of the music player.

For the most part the 4gb iPhone lived up to its expectations. Individuals lined up for hours in front of stores hoping they would be the first to own this technological marvel. This was due to its design and the multi-functions available on the unit. However, there were a few negative comments regarding the 4gb iPhone.

The Design Of The 4gb iPhone

Although you can’t tell a book by its cover, the 4gb iPhone can certainly sell itself by the way it looks. That is because the iPhone has a sleek design and is constructed with a huge screen. This screen is where the action takes place and is sensitive to the touch of the user to activate the various programs.

In addition, the 4gb iPhone is not bulky or cumbersome. In fact the iPhone is very thin which adds to its beauty and style.

The Multi-Functions

The operating system that the 4gb iPhone runs on is the Mac OS X. This system helps to support the many functions that are contained on the iPhone.

One of those applications is the music player. Another application included as part of the multi-functional package is a 2 megapixel camera. One additional worthwhile feature, out of many, was the ease of accessing the internet.

Other functions provided by the iPhone were the ability to perform additional communication processes. These functions included e-mail, text messaging and the ability to easily access the Internet.

Negative Comments Regarding The 4gb iPhone

Of course nothing is perfect. The 4gb iPhone is no exception.

One of the negative comments about the 4gb iPhone was that the camera did not have a video option. In addition, it was determined that 4gb was not enough memory.

The reality of the iPhone having only 4gb affected the future of the 4gb iPhone. Two months following the unveiling of this iPhone it was announced that this particular model of the iPhone would no longer be produced.

This of course affected the selling price of the 4gb iPhone. Originally, when the iPhone hit the market the selling price was set at around $499.00. With the determination that the memory was not sufficient the resulting decision was to stop production of this model. Because of this decision a 4gb iPhone can be purchased for about $200 less.

Longing to Be Touched: The Apple iPhone

Wednesday, March 26th, 2008

IphoneNova

In the modern age, status is everything, and status is best achieved through technology. From a car with built-in television screens and voice-activated audio playback to appliances able to function on their own without direction from users, technology, increasing in both capability and price, has become the symbol of luxury. No college student can be seen without an iPod, and no professional can be seen without a Blackberry. These devices have become must-haves for the sake of reputation, and while they may not technically be necessary, they become necessary through the pressure of social perception.

When talk of the iphone first began to circulate throughout the technological world, it was slated as one of the biggest must-haves of 2007. The moment it became a reality, the moment Apple set a release date, it was already sold-out. From pre-orders and online sales to on-sight, week-long lines, the first shipment of iPhones was gone before anyone had the chance to notice or decide whether or not it was worth the hundreds of dollars. But is the Apple iPhone worth its price tag? Or is it simply another victory for marketing and advertising? Time will tell, but so far, the Apple iPhone has been met with mixed reviews, even though some consumers live and die by the device.

Behind the Name

Apple as a brand name has become a staple of technology. From the iMac to the iPod, it is the crowning achievement of multimedia devices; in a sense, it is not worth buying an mp3 player unless it is an iPod, or a laptop unless it is a PowerBook. While the prices of Apple devices are steep, the company seems to defend the cost: cheaper devices rarely do well in the face of Apple products, and consumers are more than willing to put down hundreds more for one of the items. This is due in part to Apple’s marketing, but also to its reliability; the company has proven that its products are durable, long-lasting and cutting edge, and third-party companies release their products ultimately to be compatible with Apple products. For a consumer, this means that buying Apple assures only the best, from both Apple itself and every other company involved with the product.

So what about the Apple iPhone? While it is a technological wonder, combining an iPod, cell phone and internet browser all at once in a sleek, sexy package with a touch screen and virtual keyboard that makes geeks and lawyers alike drool, it is expensive, and to many, unnecessary. For those who already own an iPod and a cell phone, not much else is gained with the Apple iPhone save the convenience of having it all in one place. Most cell phones have built-in internet browsers and cameras, and any edition of the iPod is capable of excellent music playback. Thankfully for Apple, the Apple iPhone was slated the best invention of 2007, and even those consumers who had no need for the device just had to buy it to stay in the loop and save their reputations. And even those who have yet to buy the device probably will when their cell phones or iPods need upgrades, or when their provider contracts expire. Apple has proven that anything it releases is golden, and whenever it is time to shop for a new technological device, its products top almost anyone’s list.
