In Japan, barely a ripple – Los Angeles Times
Well not all of Asia, but most definitely Japan and South Korea. Even the iPhone is lackluster to them. Though despite all they can do with their phones, I’d imagine even they would have to admit that the touch interface (multi-touch) is pretty damn cool. And of course in Japan and SK they don’t care that their phones are thick. They don’t have the RAZR induced slim wars over there.
so hot, this is the outside of an Apple notebook.

This has been all over the techblogs, and I’m repeating it here because it’s just so hot. I need this phone. Okay, I don’t. But playing with my girlfriend’s new celly made me more than dissatisfied with my SLVR (form factor aside). I almost picked up a SE w810i (or dropped real money on the k790a) or the Sammy d900 carbon (pfft, links, bah, google them you want to know so bad), but have been holding out hope that the iphone/imobile is all I will want in a phone (form factor included). Though playing with the Blackberry Pearl was nice, even though I don’t need a smart phone. (This Sammy I linked has HSDPA, which I would get a data plan for ASAP, even though I wouldn’t get one for a smart phone.).
If the Applephone sucks, I can always get something else. (And Apple had better release another standalone iSight camera damnit! And iTV better not suck, with the new fee structure, Tivo doesn’t look like it’s going to be renewed, unless it only costs $3-5 more to install it on my Comcast cablebox).

this is great! Samsung, among others, LOVE to use those proprietary cables. That’s the one thing Motorola does right, mini-usb to charge/sync. I’m getting a new celly for someone as a gift, an SE, but it’s another proprietary cable. BAH I say!
