I don't disagree

A picture named blackCherryVanillaDietCoke.jpgJeremy Toeman asks if I agree with his piece about the Apple iPhone and how its appeal is dropping daily. My response. Permanent link to this item in the archive.

I don't disagree, but that's not the same as agreeing. I didn't like the iPod at first, now I've owned three and use my current one and leave the others at home for various reasons. (The Sansa is broken, the Archos is too big, the others aren't even worth mentioning). My original problem with the iPod was its dependence on the Mac (I didn't even have one then) but they cured that, and now I use Macs only.  Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Now back to the iPhone. Apple is likely in it for the long haul, and we've only seen their first product. Permanent link to this item in the archive.

On the other hand, I thought you were right about the launch souring over time, which is something I see too, and I think it's important to observe, so maybe it'll dampen the peak a little next time around (fat chance). Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Now ask me what I think about Diet Black Cherry Vanilla Coke. Yummm! Permanent link to this item in the archive.
