The development in the technology has paved way for new technical gadgets. Now it's the time for convergence in the technology, which enables the best features to congregate in single instrument or gadget. It helps the customers get rid of the complexities. iPhones are the typical example for this. It is the kind of mobile phone that embeds all the qualities of information, communication and entertainment.

As the best technology in the market for 2007/8, iPhone come with many special features. iPhone has been an unremitting part of breathtaking newspaper articles which covers the iPhone reviews in big flashes. The question that remains is: Has the Apple iPhone lived up to the hype? Well, it has ushered in a whole new generation of mobile phones.

As the most hi-tech gadgets at the market, iPhone is a multimedia and internet enabled mobile phone. You can find a touch screen equipped with a virtual keyboard and buttons. It is also included other popular functions - a camera phone, a portable media player which connected to iTunes. Of course, you can do simple text messaging and voicemail. Other than the sleek wide screen; iPhone come with many internet related services like e-mailing, web surfing. It also supports the Wi-Fi hotspot connectivity. At this moment, iPhone are able to work Worldwide with GSM standard. Of course, you will need to unlock the iPhone to use it with SIM Cards from other GSM Operators.

Interestingly, even though the Apple iPhone is a smart phone, 3G has not been incorporated into it. It is a pity that even while downloading music, you have to do so at the speed of a 2G mobile device. Other than a 2G phone, it only has a 2 megapixel camera without the flash and auto focus features. Another disappointment is the battery life of the iPhone. One wishes that the creators of the Apple iPhone had taken into account the power consuming nature of the brilliant LCD screen.

iPhone is launch in USA with phone locked with AT&T in January 2007. At this moment, iPhone can be found in United Kingdom, Germany and France. At the end of 2008, iPhone is expected to come to Asia as an unlocked version.

You will be able to own one iPhone if you willing to part away $400 to $500. Bear in mind that is for a 2G version. The new iPhone, which operates on faster 3G cellular networks, will cost you above $600 USD when it launch in Jun 2008. Apple will be trying its heart out to meet its stated objective of selling 10 million iPhones in 2008!
