It's Apple execution of all of these features on the first attempt that raises the bar for all of these manufacturers, who will continue to struggle with their fragmented vision of the mobile phone platform.

HTC -unrivalled innovation? Gimme a break.
dang that dood looks way older than from the last videos...is he like the friggin manager or what? too old to be selling shiny little computers and phones

@ clak

And that my friend, is why I'll have to wait for the jailbreak it to keep my sweet Summerboard themes.


As for the GPS, it was the biggest downer. It's a baby GPS, and Jobs ought to know it and I was hoping to sell my Garmin Nuvi for the sake of convergence.

Apple may be saving their take on a new GPS UI for the iCar project. I would be surprised if TomTom would put their whole business model aside and make an app that would replace one of their products.

Honestly, I think the lack of a video camera is baffling. I expected Apple to take more advantage of the 3g speeds with some sort of video camera and YouTube upload support. That woud've been neat.

As for A2DP, I'm sure that's a feature Apple might be working on for the iPod Touch. They'll have to distinguish the lines and balance innovative features, right (eg, flash memory, thinness, ota iTS)? Besides, as if audiophiles didn't hate digital compression enough, you'd have to address complains from people that would lose the buds/earrings. Unless you'd want a funky-looking headphones.

I hope Apple will sell them online and ship them activated. That way, I don't have to be embarrassed when I fail the credit report by 301 points.

Anyways, I'd get the white one, if they had gone with a white bezel. Oh, how sweet that could've been! Why must we all get a black front, Mr. Ive? Why? Why? Why? Waaah!
We're going to use a stylus? Yuck!
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm pretty much a complete noob when it comes to camera stuff. My wife loves to take pictures, though. So much so that she literally wore out her first point and shoot camera, and the Kodak Z712 I bought for her less than two years ago is starting to act up as well. To compound the matter, we are expecting our first born sometime next year. I fear the Kodak just isn't going to cut it any longer. What would be the best starter DSLR to get? She hates missing photo opportunities due to camera 'lag' so speed would definitely be at the top of the list. Photo quality and features would be next. Price should be no more than $800. I'm not interested in video capabilities."
