I was really excited when I heard Apple iPhone would be released on June 11th. As a big fan of Apple, I like every product from this company. Now I already have iMac, iPod, Apple TV, and I am certainly going to get an iPhone in June. Apart from the regular phone functions of iPhone, the first thin...

so leapord is delayed till october 2007 all because "iphone is so sophisticated"...now that the truth has come out does this mean the iphone is not being released in June as expected either? cause if this is true this is a big *&$# up on apples part :(
What the iPhone truly needs to succeed, in view of its obvious disadvantages (high price, limitation to Cingular, small memory for music/video, lack of voice dialing, etc.) is a KILLER APP.Such an app could well be DICTATION SOFTWARE (since a microphone is already present, and a stripped down OS X...
I don't know how long it takes for the FCC to approve a product, but I was thinking: could the lack of approval (at this point) mean that Apple is potentially adding features (software or hardware) to the iPhone prototype shown back in January? I think it's definitely possible, but maybe...

In order to further set itself apart from all other competitors, Apple needs to develop a standard for allowing 3rd party applications on the iPhone. Let's say someone wants AIM on their iPhone? Well, the AIM development team could develop a mobile version of their program to use on iPhone, s...
Apple Inc. may find it hard to ignore a new dual-strategy mobile phone initiative from Sprint Nextel that promises over-the-air music downloads to a new Samsung phone for 99 cents a piece.The nation's third largest wireless carrier said Monday it plans to begin offering customers a new phone...
Hey thereBeen a reader of appleinsider for a while but never posted.I thought this was worthy of posting though.Madonna was photographed leaving the gym in London over the weekend with the iPhone in plain view!Here is a link to the gallery of photos. http://madonna-gallery.com/madonna-london-200703...
Alright, i apologize if this has been posted before, but I have come up with a theory to explain the iPhone's pricing.Alright, so the phone was announced and everybody bitched about the price, and why shouldn't they? I would love to see the iPhone subsidized as much as the next guy becau...

Are there any rumored withheld features from the iPhone including Mac OS X Leopard intergration? Do you think a mobile iLife and iWork will be purchaseable or will that not appear until the second generation iPhone?Hmmm... I wonder what a mobile iLife and iWork would be like... *begins thinking de...
I think that like transfering media content on the AppleTV from your computer we will be able to use the iPhone with the AppleTV. And why not controlling the AppleTV with the iPhone.
ALL MUST CHECK THIS OUT http://www.webu.nu/silv/iphoneItube.html
When I return to the states later this year, I need to start up another phone plan and the iPhone is not very tempting to me because I only use a phone for calling and text messaging, never photos or music. However, since I have a lot of friends in Japan and it is very common to use cell phone e-...
Does anyone kno what providers will use the iphone, i figured cingular but will any other companies?

Hello,I have been pondering the music subscription model and the fact that Apple does not offer one.Is it simply because they do not wish to, or are there also technical reasons that make it impossible or hard to implement within the iTunes-iPod-iPhone structure?It is clear that for a music subscr...
A photo that has recently cropped up on an image sharing website appears to show Apple chief executive Steve Jobs holding an iPhone conversation during a recent youth sporting event in California.Admittedly, the photo tests the boundaries of what could be considered "news" and is also difficult to...
I cant remember where I read it but it was an article and the jist of it was that the keynote in San Fransisco was only a demo and there are still quite a few features of the iphone yet to be shown to us. Is this true? If so are they likely to be as big features as we were orst introduced to? Will...

when the iphone was 1st unveiled i almost died of joy, and i told myself i was going to buy the 8gig model as soon as it came out. But as i began to think it through, i wanted an iphone less and less... all i really wanted was a widescreen touch ipod with at least 30gigs of storage (hopefully with...
The following link is an animation I created entitled "iPhone Holography." http://web.mac.com/iphone2007/iWeb/Site/iphone.htmlI created it to 1) recognize the achievements of Apple employees, 2) create a slightly different form of iPhone commercial, and 3) practice certain animations techniques.Ple...

http://www.electronista.com/articles/07/02/23/iphone.oscars.ad/I'm doubly intrigued if this is true. Not just because Apple would be pitching something that isn't even due for another few months, but that it might tell us what Apple's ad campaign for the iPhone will be. I don'...

Does anyone know if the iPhone will be compatible with the Garmin mobile GPS system? I was planning on buying a garmin navigator for my car, and an iPhone, then I thought, man I hope I can just get both in the same device! This would be a great deal for both companies.
From Looprumors.com...Apple iPhone Review posts an image of a supposed ad that shows rate plans for the upcoming iPhone.If true, it appears the iPhone rate plans from Cingular may be the same as Cingular's current plan options: $39.99 a month for 450 minutes, unlimited mobile to mobile callin...

This thread may be much ado about nothing, still there may be some valid points here.First, for the portion of the population here who feel we really can't say for sure what the iPhone will or won't have until it ships: I like the idea of giving the benefit of the doubt too, but let...

We probably all know about LG's Prada phone.I am sure very soon we will see Palm's, Motorola's, and Sony's answer to the iPhone as well. Like I said before, Steve Jobs did not set the iPhone to be the next iPod. He screwed it over by wedding the iPhone to one Wireless Carrier....

Now, heres the good question...what accessories could be built for it?I'm pretty sure you couldnt cover the iphone with plastic and still be able to touch it. Now Power Support sells crystal film sets for the nano and or ipod video. I cant think of any other way then going with that to protec...

I'm well aware this may be nearly an impossible question for anyone to answer as the unreleased product hasn't been in the hands of many yet. I'm an audiophile of the sorts and probably won't want to use the standard Apple iPhone headphone/mic. so, I'm curious to know wha...
I know everyone will hate this idea- but I actually liked Microsofts special pink edition of the zune- well not the zune itself, but the idea of making some special ones pink. I wish Apple would use the idea, maybe make a special edition color. Perhaps yellow? I think a yellow iPhone would look...
Don't you think iPhone is a bit too expensive? Microsoft CEO, Steve Ballmer, actually laughed at the price. Here is a video from YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5oGaZIKYvo What's your take on this?
Jim Cramer, host of CNBC's "Mad Money, and director of "TheStreet.com," says AT&T is planning to steal away Verizon Wireless subscribers by an enticing offer to go along with the iPhone: Free AT&T Wireless subscription for a year and a half with the purchase of Apple's iPhone.In essence,...
I'm a student with very basic and limited cell phone needs. My number one criteria when determining a phone to purchase is size. The iPhone isn't exactly a "leave in your pocket all day and not know its there" kind of phone. I'm looking for a more "chocolate" sized consumer, entr...
Altho the iPhone is not 3G there could be a camera lurking on the front of the iPhone.On Thursday, April 27, 2006 AppleInsider published this report: http://www.appleinsider.com/article.php?id=1706In this report they mentioned a patent that references to a camera embedded into the display and capa...
I imagine a program called Apple Ringmaster where you could schedule your phone to change from silent to vibrate or ring at set times. You would simply add an entry for each time you want a setting to take effect. Choosing vibe, silent, neither, or both would require a single tap to toggle each...

By the time iphone is sold in June , it will have GPS to be used with google maps and 3G to download content from itunes. Its not only an ipod with phone but a new PDA . Newton is not dead !:D
The most obvious and immediate OS X application I'd like to see on the IPhone is OmniOutliner. After all, the point of it is to make lists, like shopping lists, etc.The things that would make for a good application for iPhone are that you mostly want to read data rather than input it, and it...

Steve Balmer (the guy who acctually runs MS, Billy G hasn't for years) gave an interview about the iPhone to CNBC and made a great point...it is the most expensive phone in the market, and, it isn't in any serious way aimed at business men, the only ones who spend $$$$$ on a handset outs...

I believe the multi-touch concept Jeff Han presented forced Apple to fast track "their" multi-touch UI on the iPhone. http://www.fastcompany.com/subscr/112/open_features-canttouchthis.html
Just read this article over at the CNET blog, Crave. I was pretty surprised to find this out. Can anyone confirm if this is the case or not? If it's true, then why? Seems a little odd to me seeing as how many are calling this the "true" video iPod?What do you guys think? http://crave.cnet.com/...
