Everything flows and suddenly there is a brisk change.
You’ve seen it happening in the past, first there was no film and then there was film. First there were no cars and then there was the car.
And sometimes, it is not only workability and usefulness that emerges, but a marriage of design and feature which blend into something incredible and which will inspire hundreds after its occurrence and will find many profeteers, many copy-cats, and many would-like-to-be… until one day, suddenly, seemingly out of no-where this new thing shows up, totally advanced of its current time, totally unique and breathtaking.
The first Mac when it came to be with it’s “Hello”, this was of such magnitude.
Now, once again, something of this order occurred. The iPhone. To celebrate it’s absolute uniqueness. specialness and beauty, following some quotes what people had to say about it:

Inspired.
“My overall thought,” remarks Larry Magid (CBSNEWS.com), “is that the iPhone’s software represents a truly remarkable accomplishment. Sure, the device’s ultra thin case and large 3.5 inch display are nice touches, but what really stands out is the user interface that can best be described as inspired.”

A Quantum Leap.
“On first inspection, Apple appears to have made a quantum leap in terms of mobile handset usability.” The iPhone, the staff writers at tech.co.uk say, is “making the idea of the PDA sexy again,” offering “an elegant solution for the 21st Century handheld.” Enthusing over the onscreen keyboard, they write that “The iPhone keyboard is ‘intelligent’ in that it prevents and corrects mistyped words, a feature that’s bound to find favor with many. Find out more in our article: Why the iPhone keyboard rocks.”

Apple’s Simple, Versatile iPhone Changes the Game
“After all the ink that’s been spilled describing, previewing and hyping the Apple iPhone, does it deserve the attention? I’d have to say yes,” reports Ryan Kim (San Francisco Chronicle). “The lure of the iPhone is that it makes you want to use it. It’s actually fun. Do we say that about any phones? Hardly. It’s not really the physical design, which is a marvel of simplicity. It’s what happens when you pick it up and use it. There is nothing intimidating about it. Rather, it’s inviting.” “The cell phone, the most personal of technology devices,” Kim concludes, “has just gotten a whole lot more personal.”

The Best Phone that Anybody Has Ever Made.
“Steve Jobs has said, repeatedly, that this is the best iPod that Apple has ever made, and it is. It’s also the best phone that anybody has ever made,” says Lev Gossman (Time). “The user interface,” Grossman marvels, “is crammed with smart little touches — every moment of user interaction has been quietly stage-managed and orchestrated, with such overwhelming attention to detail that when the history of digital interface design is written, whoever managed this project at Apple will be hailed as a Michelangelo, and the iPhone his or her Sistine Chapel.”

It Feels Like You Are Holding the Future
“Apple has succeeded in crafting a unique phone that is superior [to] everything else on the market,” remarks Stuff.tv. “In one great leap Apple has rewritten the rules for mobile web browsing, invented a completely new touch-sensitive interface, and evolved the iPod. In the hand, the iPhone oozes sexiness; its wide, high-resolution screen is encircled by a halo of chrome and wrapped on its back side by cool brushed metal. When you hold it, it’s thinner and lighter than pictures would suggest: it feels like you are holding the future.” And Stuff.tv awarded iPhone a five star rating.

Like a Star Trek Gadget Come to Life
Shortly after activating his new iPhone, Michael DeAgonia (Computerworld.com) received his “ first phone call. A few moments after that, I got another. I was able to swap between calls, merge them, put them on hold, and separate them without hassle. Other phones, of course, do that as well. What’s the difference here? The multitouch screen and interface. I can confirm what early reviewers have already pointed out: it works like magic.” The iPhone, DeAgonia indicates, “ isn’t a collection of features, it’s a well-thought-out multi-function device with functions bound together by a drop-dead simple, drop-dead gorgeous interface. The sum is more than the parts.”
