And that's quite a few; in my office right now is an iMac DV, a Powerbook Wallstreet and also a G4, as well as an old and a new MacBook Pro, iPhone, and an iPad. Not just the iPhone, but the whole reengineering of the relationship between hardware provider and telcos. And let's not dismiss the software.

I have only recently upgraded to a phone with any meaningful voice capabilities, an iPhone with Siri in my particular case. And I really hadn’t put it to the test, but that changed this past weekend. I had a long solo drive home and time to think. When I headed out, I had some logistical details, so I asked Siri to call home.

While I’ve played with Cardboard on the iPhone (you can find a collection of resources for Cardboard here ), it’s not quite the same as a full VR experience. However, there were some interesting learnings for me, and I thought I’d share them. First, I had a very strong visceral exposure to VR.

Frankly, I haven’t missed Flash on my iPhone or iPad. Big companies can probably afford dedicated programming to make these apps come to life on more than one platform: Windows Mobile, WebOS, Blackberry OS, Android, and iPhone OS (they need a name for their mobile OS now that the iPad’s around: MacOSMobile?),

A new iDevice is always cool, and while it’s not the first smart watch (nor was the iPhone the first smartphone, the iPad not the first tablet, nor the iPod the first music play), Apple has a way of making the experience compelling.

Ok, I’ve had my iPhone a bit now, and some things are very useful, some things are cool, some are way fun, and some things are still irritating. However, that’s much harder to do on the iPhone, because I have to email a message to myself! Now there’s a somewhat abbreviated version of Lux on the iPhone.

I wouldn’t want to do it on my iPhone, but I am glad to take it with me in a smaller form-factor than a laptop. While you might want a desktop for big design work where screen real estate matters. For example, I’m designing diagrams on my iPad. And that’s the point.

It’s almost unknown, however, for me to actually win, but that’s actually the case a month or so ago when I put a comment on a blog prior to the MacWorld show, and won a copy of Navigon turn-by-turn navigation software for my iPhone.

As one of the commenters noted on the iPhone Blog livecast : “Garage Band Instructor beats Guitar Hero&#. Sure, there were some other thrills for me: an iPhone app that allows you to control your Keynote preso (unfortunately, only by WiFi apparently), and having outlines in Pages (I write in outlines).

However, between the announcement of the iPad and it’s actual availability, I realized that it had significant roles separate from my iPhone (which I already had). I did not intend to get an iPad; I’m ‘frugal’ (read: cheap), and I don’t spend money typically until I understand the full value proposition.

My lad and lass both have MacBook Pros, though they each also have an iPod touch (lad’s is my old iPhone without a sim card) that they use. However, I’m hard pressed to believe iPads are any more fragile than laptops. Now, for higher grades, I take the point. Note that they do not take the laptops to school in most cases.

BTW, it wasn’t the iPhone that was the first in the space; the Treo had a lively market around PalmOS. So I’m going to reserve smartphone for those augmented phones that are platforms: they have an OS that others can develop for and release applications on. So why do I think this is the killer market?

Like the iPhone it’s got a touchscreen, but adds a keyboard. It drives me nuts to have to switch apps on the iPhone and have lost the context when I return. Palm has just announced the Palm Pr? as a new smartphone, and it’s got a fair bit of things right. And GPS, WiFi, etc. This analysis is critical.

Given that I just won a copy of GPS software for my iPhone (after seemingly never winning anything), I reckon I should buy a lottery ticket! (While the fact that my proximity may have been a factor, I’m not going to do aught but be very grateful and feel that the Mass chapter can call on me anytime.).

A forearm holster for my iPhone? If I need that much interface, I can always pull out my phone. Or jump to my tablet. Maybe I will eventually will want an iBracer, but I’m not yet convinced. Hmmm…maybe too geeky. So, reflecting on all this, it appears I’m thinking about tradeoffs of utility versus intrusion.

I was reflecting earlier today on how quickly the ‘ iClones ‘ came after the announcement of the iPhone. It may seem like an awful lot of overhead, but these skills become practiced, and the outcomes are far better in the long run. Things aren’t slowing down.

While I had my iPhone (used the GPS function a couple of time), I couldn’t get a signal and check email or twitter. The Grand Canyon of the Tuolomne is truly a spectacular spot, and Waterwheel Falls turned out as stunning as I had recalled. The nice thing for me was being completely off the grid for 4 days.

The US is embarrassingly behind, despite the leading platforms (iPhone, Pre, etc). The web is increasingly powerful, with HTML5 , and so while some things won’t work, web-based applications are defaulting to the lingua franca for not just content exchange but interactive activities.

Like him or not, he’s changed the face of our digital lives several times: popularizing the GUI interface with the Macintosh, changing the music market with the iPod, and upending the mobile market with the iPhone. Briefly, it’s a network-enabled thin touchscreen midway in size between the iPhone and a laptop (e.g.

I just downloaded a couple of new apps onto my iPhone. Okay, so one was a free trial of a game, but the other was a really interesting offering, and it led to some thoughts about organizational silos and new functionality.
