Apple iPhone
Steve Jobs announced the new, highly anticipated Apple iPhone during his keynote this morning at Macworld 2007. It’s a touch controlled smart phone, combined with widescreen iPod (music, video & photos) and it is wi-fi enabled, running Mac OS X. The carrier is Cingular and they will start shipping it in June.
What can I say, that is one badass phone.
iPhone combines three products — a revolutionary mobile phone, a widescreen iPod with touch controls, and a breakthrough Internet communications device with desktop-class email, web browsing, maps, and searching — into one small and lightweight handheld device. iPhone also introduces an entirely new user interface based on a large multi-touch display and pioneering new software, letting you control everything with just your fingers. So it ushers in an era of software power and sophistication never before seen in a mobile device, completely redefining what you can do on a mobile phone.
UPDATE 1: Right after the keynote ended Niall Kennedy shot a bunch of photos of the new iPhone that was on display at the Macworld expo.
UPDATE 2: A video of the iPhone introduction during the keynote is now available on Apple’s website.

This very sedate thread reminds me of the more vociferous thread going on over at Metafilter.
Someone there linked back to the original iPod release thread at Slashdot, which was highly amusing since you could basically cut and past iPhone into the iPod slots for the criticisms leveled at the original iPod.
"We have been doing this for years." - Yes, you have, but joe phone buyer has not, and that is the market they are shooting for.
