iPhone Is Here!!



That's right, you heard me right! It's no longer a mac-mans wet dream! It's no longer a figment of your strangely white and glossy dreams. No, the iPhone is a real and genuine tasty, slick, and oh so sexy reality!

Features include:
Multi Touch Display: The entire thing is a giant touch screen. Not only is it a touch screen, but it allows to only have to use your fingers and can detect multiple touches at once.

OS X: The iPhone is not just a phone, but actually three different products in one. It's an iPod, a Phone, and an Internet Connectivity device. As such, instead of just using some antiquated phone technology with slim, hardly usable mock-up applications; iPhone runs OS X natively and uses full applications and even utilizes Widgets! You can check the weather, browse the web through Safari, check your email, and even access the iTunes store.

Wi-Fi:It uses Wi-Fi to connect to the internet anywhere it detects Wi-Fi. **Unfortunately, no word on Wi-Max connectivity.**

The iPhone will be available in two different packages. The first, and the cheaper of the two is $499 with a 2 Year contract through Cingular. The second is $599 with a 2 Year contract and comes with an additional 8GB of memory. The iPhone will be available some time in June. Steve said the reason they are announcing it now, as opposed to then, is because they are awaiting the approval from the FCC, so they don't want the FCC to announce such a huge breakthrough for the company. Also, Apple is no longer known as Apple Computers Inc. Rather, they are now officially just, Apple Inc.

Watch the Keynote for yourself here.
