I think the marketing department for the iPhone should get a month long vacation. They are geniuses. Yeah they showed us almost every feature but it wasnt about the features. It was about the simplicity of using the phone.

With that being said I am still skeptical about the iPhone. I think the idea and design are top notch. I think the interface is top notch. I would buy the phone for just having wifi since not too many other phones besides a couple HTCs can do that. But I have used touchscreen keyboards and have not been that impressed. I like being able to feel the buttons. Im sure the iPhone team has figured out a fool proof way to prevents mistypes but I still want to be able to know I hit a button and not see it. Software has a better chance of malfuncioning then hardware. What if my battery goes bad? I would have to send my whole phone off just to get fixed. I dont know about you guys, but I would go nuts if i didnt have my phone for more than an hour, much less days or weeks. How come no one is making a big deal out of the glass front? I think that is a stupid idea personally. Glass can break and scratch easily especially when its in your pocket along with change and maybe keys. Im still not sold on having an mp3 player on my phone. Id rather have all of my music on my 80gb ipod then some of it on my iPhone. I think the youTube idea is kind of stupid. I, personally, do not sit around and browse youTube videos all day. But maybe some people do and would want that luxury. I do think that the iPhone is getting oversaturated in the media. I see a commercial for it at least 10 times a day on every channel at all hours of the day and night. I dont ever watch that much TV.

All in all, I am an Apple fan but am not completely sold on the iPhone yet. And I emphasize YET. All of my opinions may go out the window once I get a hold of one and actually use it. But to each his own.
Well I heard they were coming out with a 30" iMac with a multi-touchscreen. Its supposed to be just like the Wacom Cintiq only with OSX installed.

I definately need this. I have about 3 razors for different purposes and need them all when I travel. If I have this I wont need to take all of them around. And besides, Im tired of airport security looking at me funny when they accidentally get turned on in my bags...
I am the one who took the pictures of the unit in Best Buy. What is the difference between this one and the one that supposedly not out yet? Is it because of the Tivo branding on it? Im confused about this whole thing which is why I took the pictures because I didnt know people were making a big deal out of this and saying its not out yet. Is the new unit supposed to be really cheap or something? The one in Best Buy has 1080i out and HDMI support so what is the big deal about the one thats not out yet?
So does the touchscreen work in XP Pro or just Tablet edition? I currently have the Fujitsu T4020D and want just plain XP Pro on it but still use the tablet features. Tablet XP isnt as stable as XP Pro and doesnt play nice with alot of graphics programs.
You guys are rediculous! First of all this is not a fake just because it has Photoshop in the EXIF. Did any of you guys think that maybe they are digital camera shots from a hi res digicam and they took them into photoshop to bring down the size and resolution then resaved it? You guys beg for a vPod but when photos leak everyone calls it a fake. Have any of you caught on yet that there havent been any fake pictures yet? When the 5g was leaked those were real. This in my opinion is real. The reason for image on the vPod (in the pic with the hand) appears to be fading or whatever is because it is being held at an angle and with the type of screen that happens. Anyone who has a 5g or photo look at a pic or album cover at an angle and see what happens. Be excited that this is being released soon idiots!
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I am trying to configure out a really dumbed down and intuitive PC for my grandmother. She recently had a stroke and while she is under my care I would like to repurpose a laptop for her to surf and email her children. Anyone have any experience with what input devices and UI's are really understandable for the over 80 crowd?"
