iPhone - Everybody Wants One!

The iPhone is causing a veritable revolution in the mobile phone world. Apple has set the bar high yet again for its competitors, Nokia, Motorola and Samsung, by creating an object which provides all the necessary in one little package. Already available in the U.S., the European market braces itself for the rush at the end of this year.

Touch screen and stunning design


With its tactile screen and magnificent design, the iPhone is easily controlled with a finger tip. Touch screen technology is not new, but Apple proves innovative yet again, with easy, efficient navigation. A stroke of the finger is all it takes to scan through and zoom in on internet pages on the screen, and the Wi-Fi feature will not disappoint! The screen works vertically or horizontally, by simple recognition of how you are holding the phone. An excellent tool for showing off your holiday pictures or watching a movie!


Multifunctional

When you want to change functions, you simply return to the main menu, thanks to the well-designed icons at the bottom of the screen. And let's not forget the iPhone's other functions: 4-GB or 8-GB storage for audio and video, synchronisation with the iTunes library and store, 2 megapixel digital camera, video player... This little jewel of technology never ceases to impress, despite a few imperfections, notably the sound quality, the impossibility to copy and paste in emails, and its battery life. However, who can doubt that this will make a fantastic present for Christmas.
