AiyaiyaiPhone!

I have made contact with an iPhone. The device belongs to Mr Chew. He got it just recently and inadvertently became the coolest guy in the group at dinner. (He would like that since he's a geek. But a cool one at that. He's in the reflection below.)

Yes the iPhone is as wonderful as it has been made out to be. Swipe to unlock, fingers tapping at the onscreen keyboard (my fingers are too big though), beautiful images, music on an Ipod like interface and oh the scroll! The fingers swish up and down and the display follows.

It is difficult not to like the iPhone. At first glance, it's large screen, black on silver good looks, singular buttonless glass surface just shouts to the post-bubble tea Internet generation for attention. OS X is just amazing. The Mac interface is just nice to look at. And nice will sell. Then Mac sales will go up because once PC-kind is taken in by their indispensable mobile device, this is a quick hop, skip and jump to the white side. Just you wait and see. Get Mac shares if you can. They'll be next stock market Google.
