Thats's right Apple has successfully created the first Jesus phone. It can walk on water, heal the sick, and even conquer death. iPhone is a widescreen iPod, mobile phone, and internet communications device all wrapped into one. The sheer asthetic quality of the phone is enough to entice ‘oohhs’ and ‘ahhhs’ from the masses. Beauty coupled with the beast that is iPhone can only promise record highs for Apple's stock.

Basically, Apple decided to make a computer 11mm thick with a high-resolution 3.5in touch screen that weighs about 135g. This little wonder is going to revolutionize the mobile phone industry. There is no keyboard and what buttons do exist are molded to the miniature frame of the phone with the exception of the 'Home' button located inconspicuously on the front of the phone.
iPhone has all the amenities of today's cellphones with a few extra wonders as well. It has a 2-megapixel camera, headphone jack, sleep/wake switch, dock connector, speaker and microphone, as well as a SIM card slot located at the top of the phone. Connectivity includes Bluetooth 2.0, WiFi and support for EDGE technology.

What Apple has done is taken the beauty of technology and wrapped every little toy we love so much into one small 11mm package. It's a television, movie player, computer, phone, camera, GPS, newspaper, and iPod that all come together to form iPhone; the 8th wonder of the world. In all seriousness, you can check your email, listen to your favorite song or watch your favorite Bruce Lee flick. It seems like there is no end to the possibities for the iPhone. If it could cook, clean, and do my laundry I would marry it!
This phone is so sleek and smooth you can't help but reach out and touch it. This is a good thing too considering the system is completely touch-activated. Apple has developed the software to make this possible. It's simple, if you want to access something within the phone you simply reach out and touch the appropriate icon. For the amount of applications and functionality this phone has it is extremely easy to navigate.
Navigation
No more near death experiences while driving and trying to dial your girlfriend's number, nearly slamming into the telephone pole that magically appears out of your peripheral vision. With the iPhone you simply touch the number or name you want and tada, you're in business. If you need to have a conference call you can even merge calls.
Visual Voicemail allows you to look at your voicemails and decide which messages you're going to listen to. Honestly this small feature is probably the greatest single innovation for the cell phone since ringtones. How many times have you accessed your voicemail and had to suffer through 2 or 3 messages before getting to the one you actually want to listen to?
Aside from calls, the iPhone is also an upgraded iPod. You can download and listen to over 16 hours of music in one single charge and again, the navigation is very simple. You can scroll through and select music just by pointing to it. It features a mode called Coverflow and while in this mode you can flip through albums and choose songs this way.

Internet access is no longer a completely useless function on your phone. The iPhone utilizes Safari browser which includes a built in Google and Yahoo search. You can access your email and read a webpage at the same time.
So where can I get this portable masterpiece you ask? I'm sorry to say it doesn't come out until next year. That's right, we're going to have to sit here and wait like a kid on Christmas eve. But I promise you, this little wonder is worth the wait.
