(the "touch" is since it at first wasn't a real touch sensitive screen but it used a grid of light beams that sensed the finger)

According to the USPTO, Apple did NOT invent the flipping touchscreen so please shut the hell up!

Did I say touchscreen? No. Did I say Apple invented touchscreen? No.

Anyway upon closer inspection of that photo, does this device take "C" batteries? Probably the only explanation why its thick as a brick. Not a very innovative device.]]>Jul 30th 2008 7:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/every-neonode-n2-recalled-due-to-reception-problems/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/every-neonode-n2-recalled-due-to-reception-problems/
IIRC, IBM and Bellsouth put out a touchscreen operated phone that was a phone, a PDA, and played games. Since the internet (as we know it) didn't exist, it also had fax capabilities. The "Simon", I think.

Touchscreen operated smartphones have been on the market since 1994.

I'll tell you what. Justify your accusation that the N2 is an iPhone clone and we'll get off your back. Otherwise, stop being an ignorant troll.]]>Jul 31st 2008 7:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/every-neonode-n2-recalled-due-to-reception-problems/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/every-neonode-n2-recalled-due-to-reception-problems/
While your world may have changed after the introduction of the HTC Touch (I know, you really meant that Apple device), I can assure you that there was a prospering touchscreen market prior to late June, 2007.

Notice the manufacturers: Palm (notably successful), HP (very popular iPaq line), Samsung, HTC, and Sony. No wonder Apple decided to get into the market... Also notice how many offered 3G and GPS, back in 2006. I support your fanboism, but take off the reality-distortion field that blinds you and accept the truth - the now mature market for touchscreen smartphones was built over the last two decades due to the hard work of many software writers and their hardware suppliers.]]>Jul 31st 2008 2:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/every-neonode-n2-recalled-due-to-reception-problems/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/every-neonode-n2-recalled-due-to-reception-problems/Jul 30th 2008 6:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/every-neonode-n2-recalled-due-to-reception-problems/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/every-neonode-n2-recalled-due-to-reception-problems/Jul 30th 2008 6:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/every-neonode-n2-recalled-due-to-reception-problems/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/every-neonode-n2-recalled-due-to-reception-problems/Jul 30th 2008 6:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/every-neonode-n2-recalled-due-to-reception-problems/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/every-neonode-n2-recalled-due-to-reception-problems/Jul 30th 2008 6:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/every-neonode-n2-recalled-due-to-reception-problems/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/every-neonode-n2-recalled-due-to-reception-problems/Jul 30th 2008 6:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/every-neonode-n2-recalled-due-to-reception-problems/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/every-neonode-n2-recalled-due-to-reception-problems/Jul 30th 2008 6:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/every-neonode-n2-recalled-due-to-reception-problems/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/every-neonode-n2-recalled-due-to-reception-problems/
