What exactly is the iPhone?Yes, I know it's a phone... but why is it this big thing? Why would I wanna buy an iPhone as opposed to say... any other cell?
30 months. thats a long time. Apple's pretty good at keep secrets. If it were microsoft, the secret would have been out 28 months ago.I wonder what Apple is planning right now for 30 months from now.
I understand that. I was working for months (until an official announcement) before I could even tell my friends/family/girlfriend what I was working on (I work for a games developer). It's not easy.
@joebootyIt was kept a secret. Everything regarding the iPhone up until Steve Jobs mentioned it, was nothing but speculation. Everyone thought Apple was on the road to a phone but no one with 100% certainty would have said it was coming so soon or have been able to detail what the product was.
