The iPhone is here!



Remember the fake iPhone rumors? That was a sweet concept, but this is a sweet phone! 3.5 inch touch screen with full iTunes support. Very nice. Now, how do I talk my wife into letting me get one?

This from Engadget:

Sweet, glorious specs of the 11.6 millimeter device (that's frickin' thin, by the way) include a 3.5-inch wide touchscreen display with multi-touch support, 2 megapixel cam, 8 GB of storage, Bluetooth with EDR, WiFi, and quadband GSM radio with EDGE -- and amazingly, it somehow runs OS X. A proximity sensor disables the touchscreen when it's close to your face, while the iTunes support rocks CoverFlow.
Don't forget that iTunes support means that it also supports video playback! Now it's widescreen! The Office on a portable widescreen! What a wonderful world.


UPDATE: $599 for an 8 GB version! Yikes, that'll be a tough sell. Maybe I won't be getting one for a while.
