Apple's New iPhone
- Will it Change Everything?
 By
Muhammad Jamil
Recently, Steve Jobs unveiled Apple's new iPhone, a touch
screen smartphone running a version of Mac OS. Though it will
not be available in the US till June this year it has created
a lot of hype in the media. Steve Jobs in his keynote speech
said, "Every once in a while, a revolutionary product comes
along that changes everything." That is a big claim. Will
it change everything? I seriously doubt.
Description
Apples's new iPhone is not just a phone. It is, in fact,
a phone, a music player, a video player, an internet device
for browsing, email, text messaging and a camera, all in one.
It is a cool smartphone.
Features
The iPhone allows users to make calls by simply pointing
at a name or number in the address book. You can synchronize
your contacts from your PC, Mac or Yahoo mail and stay up
to date. You can also easily make a list of frequently called
numbers.
The iPhone's visual voicemail is an industry first. You
can look at a listing of your voicemails and decide which
messages you want to listen and then go directly to listen
them. It enables you to randomly access your voice messages
just like email.
The iPhone is a widescreen iPod with touch screen controls
that makes it easy for you to enjoy all your music, audio
books, TV shows and movies. You can also sync from your iTunes
library on your PC or Mac. Users will also be able to search
through songs, albums and play lists with a touch of a finger.
The iPhone is using Safari browser and provides a very pleasing
browsing experience. Safari browser lets you see any webpage
as it was designed to be seen, then with a touch on screen
you can zoom in on the webpage. Safari has built in Google
and Yahoo search.
The iPhone has built-in sensors which detects the position
of the device. When you move from portrait to landscape position
the display also changes on the screen. With Google Maps you
can get satellite images, get directions and traffic information.
It also has widgets which give you helpful information on
stock and weather reports in real-time with a touch of finger.
