I've spent all of my professional life working on Macs. Long before Windows 98 came on the scene I always felt a certain amount of smugness when looking upon the pre-98 op. system. Then 98 and it's successors came along, and while it was certainly an improvement I've always believed that the Mac interface was always more user-friendly (this is just MY opinion).
Over the past few years, with mobiles becoming more and more complicated, I often find myself frustrated by the feckin' things and have always longed for Apple to come along and create one, since I knew that (if nothing else) the user interface would be a lot more intuitive.
It's come along now, and regardless of what issues anyone on here might have, I for one am delighted ... and will be getting one.
No, I'm not some apple-disciple. In my business the Macs are industry-standard and I've always felt that the Mac just seems to think the way that I do, making it easier for me to get my work done.
To the person that said Apple products were geeky
Hello! I was always under the impression that it was the MS suite that was supposed to be the geeky one, and that Apple stuff was supposed to be reasonably hip (again, not the reasons why I'm an advocate)
Anyway, debate on about the merits of yer Nokias and the like, but I can assure you that should you get your hands on one of these things when they land on our shores at the end of this year you may well ask yourself why hasn't it been done like this all along?
(ps - no 3G? Yup, but I think you'll find that they've leap-frogged 3G with something entirely new)
