Second, when speaking of devices, the iPhone has patented technology that will NOT be easy to duplicate or overtake. It's very simple to say RIMM, MSFT et al can just make an iPhone of their own but to actually do so will be enormously difficult.

Third, while everyone else scrambles to catch up to Apple regarding the iPhone device, Apple will be moving forward into touchscreen computers, better Apple TV, home media integration etc. Apple in the early 80's was a complacent company compared to the new Apple. I do not expect history to repeat itself this time.

At the end of the day, Apple has very little chance of losing its own, growing user base for the forseeable future whereas the Windows world is under constant threat. The future looks bright for Apple.]]>

Battery life is not 'pretty good', it is EXCEPTIONAL. Much improved over the 1st phone which I've had for a year. If you simply TURN OFF 3G and WIFI until you need them, you can get THREE DAYS OF USAGE. Tiny little Nokia's don't do that and how many features do they have???]]>
