Apple announced its TV streaming device today. But that's not the best...
They have the iPhone, and it's basically the greatest portable deivce ever created. It's a phone, an iPod, a touch-screen PDA, a portable web browser. Don't believe me? Check out the live keynote speech, which explains all the features in depth. This is high technology, baby.

Very very awesome.
The Multi-Touch intrigues me.
However, the only thing that bugs me about any cellphone adjoined to a main screen for device is the amount of oil that transfers onto it and makes the screen blurry until you clean it. Meh, I could wipe it on my shirt.
So.. then, that just leaves that fact that so far it looks like it will only be available in the USA along with Cingular. Dang.

I've found the "wipe in on my shirt" solution generally works pretty good. ;-)
Also, Cingular is part of the AT&T network, as is Rogers' network. So once it has CRTC approval we'll probably see it on my network in Canada.

See, it's stuff like this that makes me go: "Well, I could just wait 'til that's out and then I could get a new cell phone."
Although, this has the drawback of costing more than half a grand.

Oh my god, I saw that on T.V. the other night and just about peed myself laughing. Seriously though, bronze bikini clad Princess Leia vs. iPhone, it is a tough call.
