Are you sure you want one of these?
Why? Steve just left his iPhone in the “get bigger machine” — idon’t get it.

This device could be seen as a computer for marginal computer users. This is a transitional device. By that I mean, it is not the iPhone nor is it a laptop/desktop. It is a transitional computer of sorts. So, I hypothesize that some people will buy it because they have disposable income and want it. Others might buy because it is “all the computer they’ll need” because they don’t do intense tasks and work on a computer anyway. So, it is a device that will adequately allow them to read books, surf the web, check email, download music, see pictures of grandkids, play games, and continue to move into the digital age. Also, it has a simple operating system that wouldn’t require much of a learning curve to use. It can bring people into more of a digital and computer age that aren’t fully in there yet.
Oh, I think it would be loads of fun to carry around. But it doesn’t seem to be anything more than a B-I-G iPhone that can’t call anybody.
but if you gimme $500, I’ll buy one and let you look at it.
I can sympathize with Jarrod’s lust..uh…I mean interest in such expansions to his Apple collection. But they sure don’t make it difficult to make fun of. Let the jokes begin:
Etch-a-sketch finally caught up with the imagination of Steve Jobs.
Game boy for big boys.
Is this thing gonna lower the gas mileage on my Smart Car?
Does that thing come with shoulder straps?
My other flat screens a 72″
….
I think its pretty cool. We’ll be upgrading to iphones pretty soon. Those touchscreens can be pretty addictive.
Have fun, Jarrod.
Hey Steve – both of yeh’s! (Brooklyn slang????)
How big of a phone holder will we need for this???? I mean you better make sure your belt is tight on your pants or…..
I love the iPhone…I use Kindle for iPhone and saved $259 for the Kindle (though it holds up to 1800 books). I am reading about four books on the iPhone at the moment and I like it – even though you can only read a paragraph or two on the scree at a time it makes for easy and convenient reading. I think this new iPad will also have a reader but hey that will be a mighty big book.. LOL
You missed my birthday but if you save up and hurry you can buy me this huge reader.
You see, when people get older their eyes tend fail. The screen on the iPhone isn’t great for older eyes and Jobs isn’t getting any younger. Ergo, Jobs needed a bigger iPhone.
Can you hear me now?
Joel, that’s it! and now I want one. My birthday is only six months away so y’all have time to save up. Maybe they’ll give senior citizen discounts.
I wonder if they’ll add a phone app and call it the “iJitterbug” That would help the old folks like you, Pastor Steve.
Andrew,
If that means that the app jitterbugs for me, I’m all for it.
