Honestly what was I expecting. Apple has been getting my hopes up since I have become a faithful, loyal customer in 2006 and I've been getting BS. Maybe its the critics and the blogs that I allow to get my hopes up but if it's one thing that I have learned in business, it's that WORD OF MOUTH is successful. So when shortly after the 1st iPhone was released June 29, 2007 and people were already talking about 3G, I knew the next iPhone would knock em all dead. Unfortunately I was wrong.

Video MessagingThese are standard things on all phones these days and at this rate I might as well switch back to T-Mobile and keep my sidekick.
If that wasn't bad enough. The iPhone will no longer be exclusive. For $199 and $299, everyone in the world will have one of these things and Steve Jobs plans to take over the whole world by selling iPhones to everyone. It used to be a privilege to be somewhere and have people quacking over your 16gb 499$(plus tax and accessories) iPhone, now its just going to be like:
"Oh you have and iPhone, white or black?"
"Black"
"Black"
"White"
"Black"
"White"
"Rhinestone"The only thing that will set you apart with this bad boy is who has the best outer customization. O well I guess off to Crystal Icing, I go.
I think Apple is aware of the
pull they have with it's consumers. That is why they constantly give us beautiful half assed, over priced products. And just as I gripe about the new iPhone, I too will be line for a White 16gb just like everyone else on July 11.
