I Phone Mania

It seems that everyone either has or wants the iPhone. According to a recent news article.

The billionth (that is right, billion with a B) was downloaded from Apple 's App Store last Thursday (April 23). All of these downloads have taken place in the last nine months. That averages out to about 5.5 million app downloads per day.
Watch the video. These iPhone ads are very catchy. Do you want to try one? I recently borrowed a friend's iPhone and spent about 15 minutes working with it. Never once during that time did I try to use it as a telephone.
Do you want one? Do you own one? What are your thoughts on the iPhone? Please share them with us.

I would like to try an iPhone as it seems like an interesting gadget. I would like an iPhone, but I most likely would not use it much. It is pretty advanced and has an innovative touch screen but I feel that if they become widespread the 3G network will become overtaxed.

I think the iPhone is pretty cool but its not really my style, I have a blackberry and I don’t really want a new phone. but the phone commercial is pretty catchy. it seems like the iPhone has it all.

I want an Iphone so bad it’s not even funny. I can’t get one though I have no money at all. I think the Iphone is so awesome and I don’t doubt that a lot of people would want one.

I would love to own an iPhone, but it is just so expensive. Even the replacment battery is expensive for the iPhone. I just do not have the kind of money to pay for one.

I don't own an iPhone, but I think the iPhone would be cool to have. It seems like it has everything. You'd be able to do a bunch of different things using only your iPod. I think it's a pretty neat device.

I think personally it's just money wasted, because i can get internet and take pictures, crop and ect, on the phone I have, it's just money you have to spend and that's all you do on the Iphone.

I would love to try to try one, but I know that I can't get one though. Some people look like they are having so much fun on it that maybe I will get one later on. I like it though because it is a touchscreen.

I think the iphone is very cool. But, it's way too complicated and expensive for me. I don't have a problem with just texting and calling on my cellphone, and then using a computer for internet access. Thats what a computer is for, not a phone. Plus, nomatter how much you practice it will always be way easier to type and do what you need to do on the computer.

iPhones are cool, I guess, but I don't really want one. I'm a very spontaneous person. If I'm driving down the road, I'll just pick the first restaurant I see, so I really wouldn't want an iPhone. I'm sure it's cool for some people, but I wouldn't really care for one. I think people use them more as a status symbol and so they can say, "I have more apps than you," mare than anything else, but that's just my opinion.

No, I dont have an i-Phone, and I don't think I want one. I've seen a few people who have got one. they're addicted. I don't want to become addicted to anything like that. Its really scary. Good for Apple though. I bet they're rolling in money right now.

To be honest, I am not too interested in the iPhone. I have used a touch screen before and although it is very fun and exciting to use, the touch screen can be inaccurate. When trying to type a message or edit a phone I often type the wrong letter or edit the wrong part of the photo. Oh, and by the way, Aaron forgot to edit the title. :p

It's pretty cool, even though a lot of people dont have money like everyone else in the world, and we can get just about everything the iphone has and put it on a cellphone, so sometimes when I look at situations like this there kind of pointless. And no I don't own one.

I think the iphone is a peace of work. Their are good and bad things about the iphone, like it is expensive to own but it is also a little tiny computer. I think the iphone will be cool to have but its expensive.

Wow, iPhone i don't get it. Now a days, its all high technology touch screen this and touch screen that. iPhone is handy but it also a waste of money. I only say that probably because I can't afford.

It would be very interesting to own an iPhone. If I had one, I would spend a lot of time on downloading applications. I would also be on youtube a lot. iPhones are very cool devices. Technology will only keep growing until the iPhone is replaced by something bigger and better or smaller and better. Go Dukes.
