Apple's New iPhone Proves Groundbreaking

I just spent the last hour watching Apple Inc. CEO Steve Job's Macworld keynote. He spends most of the presentation reviewing the new iPhone's features and capabilities. If you haven't yet seen this new device, check it out. Apple's truly revolutionizing portable music players, telephones and Internet communicators with a single, incredibly user-friendly device boasting breathtaking design.

There is no doubt Apple's just turned the mobile phone market upside down. If stock prices are any indication, competitors' tickers took a sharp downward turn, while Apple's stock took yet another spike skyward.

I must have one. At $500, the purchase will prove expensive. But the new phone could conceivably replace my iPod, telephone and need for a laptop in the field. All of a sudden $500 isn't that outrageous.
