Mike Elgan: Jobs Blew iPhone Keynote

We know you're all sick of our fawning over the iPhone, so in the interest of something different, we bring you Mike Elgan's rundown of how the iPhone announcement was less than picture-perfect. He's totally unbiased, as the former editor of Windows Magazine. In sum, Mike lists the screwups of his Steveness as: More »

iPhone Reactions From CES: The Joy of Competition

gizmodoiphonehands.jpg The iPhone: We love it. You love it. Everyone loves it. Except for maybe the phone makers that now have to stack up to it. We decided to hit the CES show floor to see what some reps from other makers had to say about the Jesus phone and how they plan on dealing with the Second Coming. Quotopia after the jump. More »

How Will the iPod be Affected by the iPhone?

One thing that seems to have gotten lost in the fray with all this iPhone hullabaloo is what is going to happen to the iPod now. Sure, the iPhone is a phone mixed with an iPod, but not everyone wants to spend $600 and get a phone/tablet with their music player. Apple has spent so much time and money getting TV shows and movies into the ITMS there's no way they won't release a new, high capacity multimedia player with the same slick widescreen format for people who don't want to make the jump to the iPhone.

iPhone Oddsmodo: The Chances Cisco will Destroy Apple in Court

I guess it's only appropriate to throw up an Oddsmodo while the Gizmodo team is busting our asses in the city of sin. So ... the news of Cisco suing Apple only broke a couple hours ago and our tech-friendly bookmakers at Bodog already have some lines going. You can wager you hard earned dollars on:

• Will Apple Inc. (AAPL) stock close with a value of 110.00 or more by June 15th, 2007? (Yes: -140, No: EVEN)
• Will Cisco win their lawsuit against Apple Inc. over the "iPhone" trademark? (Yes: +500, No: -105)
• Will Apple Inc. be forced to change the name of the iPhone due to Cisco's trademark? (Yes: +500, No: -900)

Our take? The bookmakers are favoring Apple heavily in having to change the name of the iPhone, but it favoring Apple only slightly winning the lawsuit. It just depends on how serious Cisco is about this, their iPhone stuff that they acquired (and are protecting with this lawsuit) isn't too spectacular and I'm not sure it is something worthy spending million fighting Apple for. Then again to make some good money on a bet like this, take the long shot and hope Cisco stays stubborn and forces Apple to change the name. More »

Apple iPhone Papercraft Model

Rumor: 3G iPhone Coming

According to an engineer who worked on the network/radio for the iPhone, there's a good reason Apple didn't have 3G in this iteration of the iPhone. He says less than 1% of Cingular customers have HSDPA capability—it's only available in a dozen or so markets. Plus, the engineer says the target users wouldn't know the difference anyway. Great confidence in the consumer, even if it's sorta true. More »

Windows Mobile 5 Already Does What the iPhone Does

We were all very excited to hear that the iPhone announcement met all of our wild expectations. Steve Job's reality distortion field was in full effect. But in the ugly, sober light of day, a day later, what do we have? A phone that isn't quite a smartphone? A closed system? More »

Gizmodo iPhone Hands On Part Deux: Why Isn't it White and Other Questions


When we got our sweaty palms on the iPhone, we weren't allowed to take photos for our usual gallery. But we got a Q&A with Apple's VP of Applications, Eddie Cue, and Senior VP of Worldwide Marketing, Phil Schiller. (Otherwise known as the guy who does iSight convos with Steve-O at every Apple event.) More »

Gizmodo iPhone Hands-On: I Called My Mommy

Apple just gave us 15 minutes with the iPhone. To be frank, I was surprised — Apple doesn't usually grace us with this kind of love. I guess they liked our iPhone posts from last month. The legends say Woz and Steve love to pull pranks. More »

Axiotron ModBook—Not the Apple Ultraportable We Wanted, But We'll Take It

As psyched as we were to see the unveiling of the Jesus phone at today's Macworld Expo, we were very bummed at the absence of an ultraportable Mac. Luckily for us, Axiotron outted their new ModBook Mac Tablet. The chrome-plated magnesium tablet sports a 13.3-inch Wacom LCD and has similar specs as the current MacBook Pros. It runs OS X and uses it's handwriting recognition to let you scribble on the screen. From the image, it also looks like it might be sporting a webcam. And just like Apple, the ModBook is expensive, starting at $2,279. More »

iPhone Fakes: A Walk Down Memory Lane

The announcement at long last of the Apple iPhone today marks the end of an era. For well over a year now there has been rampant speculation about Apple's then-rumored foray into the cell phone field, with everyone wondering what kinds of magical features Steve Jobs and company would bring to the table. That meant product mockups, and lots of 'em. Some tried to pass themselves off as leaks and some came right out and said they were just for fun. The one thing that they all have in common? None of them are anywhere near as cool as the real deal. Nice work, Apple. More »
