[IxDA Discuss] The problem with the iPhone

[Jeff Axup]

Hi all,

A while back there were some threads on IXDA pertaining to the iPhone which
I browsed, but never fully engaged with because I was thinking about writing
a blog article on the topic.

My main argument is that Apple doesn't understand the need for serious text
entry, integration with community, or designing an overall mobile
experience. However, they have produced a ground-breaking new piece of
disruptive technology that is really beautiful.

The article is here:

Any comments appreciated.

Thanks,
Jeff
