Missed sales targets, lack of content, firmware issues galore, walled development environment...  How is this the innovation of the year?  Sure its got a touch screen, but my E61 can run Apache and Python, as well as run all manner of 3rd party apps, and so on.<br><br>I'd really like a solid analysis of why this thing is so revolutionary.  Apple was not the first to have a touch-screen, WiFi-enabled, media-capable Smartphone.  Our device lab has a bunch.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ThePhwner]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 2nd 2007 9:25AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Time names iPhone "Invention Of the Year"]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/01/time-names-iphone-invention-of-the-year/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/01/time-names-iphone-invention-of-the-year/</guid><description><![CDATA[Congratulations Apple!!!
