iPhone release date maybe delay to July
« on: April 23, 2007, 12:02:26 AM »
Insiders from apple said that apple iPhone release date maybe delay to the end of June or early July.

Refer to this article taking about software Q/A and OS issues about iPhone.

While people like AT&T’s COO and Apple themselves continue to maintain that the iPhone is still on track for June, everyone is still skeptical that something else is probably brewing behind closed doors. After all, Apple told us that Leopard was on track for Spring just a couple weeks before they announced that it was being pushed ’till October, and some sources have told Ars that they were made aware of the October date by Apple long before the rest of the world knew.That information is confirmed once again by a close source this morning, and he has some not-so-great news about that pesky iPhone delay rumor. He Who Shall Not Be Named™ has told us, “Apple knew two months ago that Leopard was going to be delayed since all of the key engineers are now in Taipei.”

Somebody from Foxconn/Hon Hai that “it does not look feasible that Apple will be able to ship units out in May to make the iPhone shipping date in the US (June),expect units to trickle by end of June or early July."It is doubtful they will have enough units on hand to meet the demand.”

Insiders said The issue with the iPhone is not the battery, but the software Q/A and OS-related issues.”

The numbers are on a touch screen......what were they smoking when they thought of that  :o

It can be really easily damaged, like the ipod mini screen when it first came out. It's going to be in your pocket all day, being sqashed under the pressure and heat, and then SNAP..........

Same here.
Can anyone explain the appeal of an iPhone or iPod to me?
I'd be very grateful if someone can help me understand.

The ability to play movies and the amount of memory.
Other than that, don't really like the ipod. I actually have two mp3s

(Mumbling)
I dont care to see one of those iPhones (PWND!)

iPods were bad enough.

So many teens thought they were "cool" and bought them.

Look at all that wasted money!

(I want a Zune  :'( )

Mp3 players are for newbies, I sing out loud myself and everyone around me likes it. I can tell from the jealous faces when I ride the train.

And I can get better movie support, a better screen, and more storage space, plus better features and battery life, for cheaper.
And it's NOT an iPod.
All those are bonuses.
