iPhone Number One "Handset Purchased By Adults" In The Third Quarter

iphone3g
Whew! I was worried about that: the iPhone being the leading handset purchased by adults in the third quarter that is. Really, I was losing sleep. Ok, in all seriousness, the iPhone overtaking Motorola's Razr is pretty big stuff and a testament to what a great piece of technology the iPhone really is. We already knew that the iPhone was crushing the Blackberry in satisfaction among the business crowd. Add this latest Razr tidbit to the mix and you've got definitive proof that the iPhone is already the technology and smart phone of tomorrow, and we lucky Apple iPhone users clutch it in our sweaty little palms today.

This news won't come as a surprise to anyone who actually use an iPhone everyday. After Apple fixed all the problems associated with the 2.0 debacle the iPhone, at least mine, has been nothing short of stellar. I've not experiences a single Silver Apple of Death screen since and I've not had to do even one restore and reset. Woo hoo!

If you look beyond the 8,000 Tip apps, 200 million Sudoku apps and the 225 "I have to take this call and oh by the way I need to leave" emergency bad date call apps the iPhone and the iTunes apps store have been an astonishing success. There is only one company that could've pulled this off and it's Apple. Don't argue Windoz fan boys you know it's true. Just as Microsoft brought affordable computing to billions (okay, the Windows experience can hardly be called computing) Apple has brought an amazing smart phone and application infrastructure to the masses. So go suck eggs Balmer!

The iPhone platform based on Leopard is truly a revolution. All hail the revolution (gratuitous Blue Oyster Cult link)!

Inaugural Post

Hi and welcome to the inaugural post at "And Yet Another Apple Weblog"! 

Hmm... Well now, that's a mouth full. I think from here on out we'll just refer to ourselves as AYAAW. That's kind of catchy, isn't it? Oh and by the way when we say "we", we really mean I. Yep, this is a one guy operation at this point. Perhaps sometime in the future AYAAW will grow and need another writer(s) but that's a long way off at this point. One Mac/iPhone/iPod/Apple geek is more than enough for the present.

So what do we hope you, our (my) intrepid reader will get out of this? Don't know and can't say if I did. As the monicker implies most will probably find this place "just another Apple weblog". Substitute just for and yet and there you are. Hopefully you'll find an interesting bit if Apple related news or information now and then. We (I) might even throw in a review every once in awhile to spice things up. We’ll taint, contaminate, pollute (choose your verb) any and all news and reviews with our own slightly off brand of humor. Hopefully you'll find our, and by our I mean my (okay I'll stop now), brand of humor, well humorous. 

That's it then, it's in the books as it were and so to speak. Thanks for reading. Happy

Joe Henry
