Bro Microsoft,

I am impressed that you know so much about the industry. Any chance that you work for Microsoft ?

The iPhone has become THE standard in the marketplace. All the handphone phone manufacturers know this, thats why there are so many "iphone killers".
Before the iPhone the only advancement in handphones were better camera or MP3 capacity.

Even if you don't get an iPhone, your next handphone will have many "iPhone" features.

Yup, iphone apple is the creative source. It is amazing what creativity might do and make so many ripples of advancement and progress. That is why creativity should be the main focus in education.

Yes, ever since Steve Jobs returned to Apple we can see the things he's done, differently. Very amusing that Creatives Sim publicly challenged Apples iPod.

Its OK to make the challenege, but cannot just be based on cheaper price alone. Must have some sort of game plan & now obvious that Creative is now in trouuble. Same mistake PAP is making i.e. cheap labor to attract MNC.

When I originally got the gen 1 Ipod, I didn't expect it to be popular because it was expensive. I bought it because it was a novel device : )

History has shown that SJ got it right, people wanted an "easy to use" portable device, never mind if music quality wasn't Hi Fi. Apple beat Creative because of the better user interface & itunes, they have a better game plan.

Same thing is going on with the Iphone. It may not have the best camera or best sound, etc, but it offers better integration & user experience. Look at Japan, technically they have the best handphones around but the iPhone is expected to do great.

As a consumer I am attracted to technology that I can use. I don't mind seeing others with the same device but then I don't own a Rolex or drive a Mercedes. However I do own Apple stocks : )

No iTunes Singapore store and no apps store takes the fun out of the iPhone package.

I got a gen 1 iPod, its 7 year old & still working. Apple products quite lasting : )

I'm considering getting an iPod touch or Iphone because its small & will allow me to check emails when I travel. Many countries now have Wi Fi hot spots.

I've got a Hi Fi system equipped with Monitor Audio & Jamo Speakers which I think is better than Bose & sometimes I hook up my iPod for the Hi Fi experience. With the iPod, I can access my music collection faster than my CD collection.

I don't know anyone who regretted getting their Apple products. Could be because they are not impulse buyers. They are not buying an Apple product because its some kind of status symbol but because of the user friendliness of the products.

Its a pity that Singtel has been chosen to distribute the iPhone. They are out to ketuk their customers. I may pick one up in HK where its suppose cheaper.

I regretted because iPod restricted my FREEDOM to copy songs, podcasts, audiobooks etc... to and from computer without using the bloatware iTunes (comes with mobile stuffs etc.. even if you don't use a iPhone).

Presently, I bought a Nokia symbian phone for the first time. It came with GPS, WiFi, Podcast, Audio Books, Radio, MP3 Player, Camera, Network Access, Push Mail, Oxford Dictionary with Audio, Wikipedia, Document Editing, PDF, Book Reader, Picture Uploading, Sync with Server and Calendar. One up for Nokia!

My iPod relegate to the reservist unit now. I really appreciate the FREEDOM to move all my data without any restrictions at all. don't think I will have any interest in IPod again. BTW I owned 3 iPods... and now I know what I'm missing after using Nokia.
