Everything to me can be compared to high school days. Over ten years removed, the temptation exists at some point just about every day to discuss an aspect of my current situation to the voice-cracking days of yesteryear.
In my mind the iPhone 4 is still 'so hot' right now. Assuming the company is female and does not look anything like Steve Jobs or George Castanza (Not that there is anything wrong with that), I would nervously as Apple to the Prom, still.
Sure she is a bit posessive and won't let you talk to other girls sometimes but she is beautiful and has great 'Apps'.
Let's be real though, haters gonna hate. In this instance, they base their value off of it. How does your smartphone compare to the iPhone 4? This is not always true. In the case of Microsoft, for example, Vista took over 5 years to develop and stunk up the joint. In the past year Apple unveiled the new iOS 4 and outside of the reception issues (lawsuits) that have sprung up. They may have released the iPhone 4 too fast but they are not outdated. The announcement tomorrow should reveal more about where Apple stands with things but in the end the majority of people will be happy, at the behest of certain Microsoft employees. Let's face it, who would ask 'Microsoft Kin' out on a date. Kin who? Exactly, this phone was release only to be unrelease a month later. Like everything else, it was released late and there was a shift of focus midstream which lead to nothing more than embarrasment. The fact is, Microsoft has lost the right to make snide remarks. Bill Gates probably does not like school dances anyways.
Critisism is floating around in other places too, such as iPhone screen tests that show even with bumper, the glass breaks. Even with the screen protected by a protective case the LCD could die. This news should not be seen as critisism like some people perceive. Rather it's just a warning to customers to take care of their stuff.
The common denomenator if everything I've read, minus the lawsuits, is the drive to get something out of this. Bloggers like clicks. Stores like to sell. Companies like to get headlines. Everyone likes exposure.
Tomorrow Apple will be getting all of the attention, again. Who do you think is going to look good at the end of the day?
Yes, it is going to be very
Yes, it is going to be very interesting to see if Apple will be able to pull this one out and end up looking good. I have my doubts, but I've been wrong every time I've doubted Apple in recent years.
