iPhone named invention of the year
The iPhone has been named the invention of the year by Time magazine.
It has sold 1.4 million units since its release on June 29, and is looking to continue its strong growth and success.
There has been a huge amount of hype about the iPhone both before and after its release. It really shows how incredible and quickly technology is developing and gives us a taste of the future. And what a great future it looks to be. The Time Magazine article about the iPhone really presents a strong positive case about this amazing product that has won invention of the year.
It seems that Apple just can’t go wrong. I wonder what they are going to bring out next.

Sorry, guys…

It is a great phone - having used a friend of mine’s. However, I agree wtih Joe that it’s probably not deserving of “Invention of the Year”, unless it has also found a cure for cancer.
On another note - companies that usually expand beyond their already monopolised markets have become “anti-competitive”. Apple, though with all good intentions of “conquering the world” may be forced to open up their magical software interface to 3rd-party developers if it is forced, through the courts, to abandon its monopoly over anything that is technologically beautiful. Microsoft is the perfect comparison…
