Maybe someday iPhone would take over the mobile phone market

The iPhone 3G is the one of the hottest topic in town. After one year of the original version, Apple has renewed itself by launching a new model which is highly anticipated. It is poised to take over the world by storm, because of the new feature and price. Who was pissed off by the price would now seriously consider it.

What has other manufacturer done to counter this? Little actually. 1 year since the original iPhone. Nothing has surfaced that could give Apple a run for its money. We actually didn't even see a close imitation of Apple unique interface. The multi touch screen is still sort of Apple only feature. Other brand still stop at the single touch and stylus base interaction.

Usability to them is still a "I give you" affair. They haven't really think how to make the user interface more intuitive. Although I would say the touch screen keypad isn't really so user friendly either. Well, we shall see, another year down the road and what would happen to the mobile market.
