So, You Gonna Get an iPhone?

By Mark Evans | Published: July 11, 2008

Happy, July 11!

For Apple disciples, it’s like July 4 a week later given the excitement about the 3G iPhone. Even Canadians may be excited after Rogers reluctantly decided at the last minute to “listen to its customers”, and offer a generous 6GB of data for $30/month.

It will be interesting to see whether the 6GB offer actually wins people over given the wave of criticism that washed over Rogers after it introduced its original packages. A fascinating comment from a Rogers VP was they were surprised that consumers looked at the iPhone differently from other wireless devices. Really!

So I gotta ask the question…and if you are going to pony up $199 or $299 for a shiny new iPhone, leave a comment on why you want/need one. (Here’s a post from someone ready to dump their Blackberry for an iPhone.)

For what it’s worth, VentureBeat’s MG Sigler says the 3G iPhone is “sublime”. Then again, he lined up overnight! For bloggers, it’s exciting to see mobile applications for Wordpress and TypePad. Then again, I’ve heard the iPhone’s keyboard isn’t that user-friendly.
