Apple iPhone
Over the last several months a number of mockups of the long awaited iPhone have appeared on the internet. Some have looked amazing, some have not. This year at CES, Apple finally revealed the iPhone and what an amazing iPhone it is. As can be expected with Apple, it is enclosed in a very nice case, has a very nice screen and a ton of features that we didnt even think would be crammed in there. To sum the iPhone up, it is really 3 products in 1. First off its a mobile phone, second it is a widescreen iPod with touch screen controls and last, it is an internet and communications device which has web browsing, search, email and more.

A closer look reveals that the touch screen is actually a multi touch screen, meaning you can touch the screen in more then 1 place and not have it do something crazy. An example would be to zoom in to a photo you are viewing… you just put 2 fingers on the part you want to zoom in to, slide your fingers apart and the image zooms in closer.

Visual voice mail is another cool feature not seen before. As you are all aware, when you listen to your voice mail you need to listen to them all in the order they are received in. With visual voicemail you can see what messages you have onscreen and select what you want to listen to. I guess that is the same as the Vonage Features
 Apple iPhone but this is the first case I have seen this being used in a mobile phone before.

Another cool thing is the sensor which detects which way you are holding the phone and will automatically rotate the images or movie when needed. Check out the video below to see the iPhone being used.

The iPhone will be officially released in a few months time and is expected to cost in the region of $500 and be available on the Cingular network.
