iPhone
Ok, So its the macworld expo on Tuesday and hopefully apple will be launching some nice new products.
One thing I have been waiting forever for is the iPhone (which is rumored to be announced or launched on tuesday). I love the idea of having a phone (which would work amazing if it was by apple) designed to also work as an iPod, it would mean I would only have to carry 1 device around rather than trying to find space in my pockets for 2.
So if there was an iPhone on the market would you buy it?
Anyway, as you can see im quite excited about the macworkd expo, I really hope we see some good stuff.

They can't use the name iphone, so it won't be called that...some other company has already released an "iphone" under that name.
As for the mock up images, it looks ugly as hell.

There are not any official apple images released yet, all of the ones floating around the net are ones faked by people over the last few years.
I was reading somewhere that Apple could still call it the iPhone for some strange legal reason, but its unlikely that they will call it the iPhone now because of this other product that was released.

Apple releasing a phone will be the worst thing they do, it's like microsoft releasing Zune. Apple stick to OS X

I would never dream of buying a phone made by a company with no experience of making them, stick to the good companies

Fair point. My old phone was playing up last week so I put it in a slush puppy, it still worked so I through it against a garage, it smashe in to pieces but still worked so in the end I through it into a river, no idea if its working now but at least I got rid of the horrid thing.
If apple do release the iPhone I will probably get one as a replacement for my old phone, if they don't or its not avalible in the UK right away I will be getting a white LG Chocolate.

I'll read some reviews and see how it is.
It will have two batteries, one for the cellphone part, and one for the ipod part. The phone will be TINY (slider), and will have a 4 and 8 gig version. I believe it will be on the top 3 carriers (cingular, verizon, sprint [?]). The prices are supposedly going to be $250 and $300.
None of these facts are 100%, but most of them are from trusted sources.
