Woz Wants an iPhone 3G Too

Whenever Apple makes giant announcements, it is hard for me not to think about the other person that helped to begin Apple in the first place. Steve Woz help Apple create the Apple I and it is not surprising that he has his opinions about any releases that are announced.

With that being said, Woz gave a few thoughts about the iPhone 3G.

“No comments, it seems outstanding. But the exact features and costs are still vague,” he said. “For example, what sort of navigation? Do you just look at a screen and see where you are? (tracking) What sort of AT&T plans? Does 3G cost more? How much? How much international support?”

AT&T have since, posted most, if not all of those questions, but Woz still had more.

“Most of my list still missing (tethering, full bluetooth support, voice dialing, true navigation built-in, maps and all like Garmin, etc. Also, is it legal to use for voice calls while driving in California? I am planning to use the 3G iPhone as my main cell phone because I believe that the audio will be better. I’ll be in line on 7/11!”

I must say, I’ll be right in line with him…well, not with him, but in line waiting to get my hands on the iPhone 3G. The launch date is July 11th and the same measures will be used like last years iPhone release. Security, more staff, escort services to your car door, waiting longer in line (due to at-store activation), and maybe even press. Last year, I was on the front page holding my brand new first generation iPhone. Probably not this time though.  wink

 

Comments

  1. Why all this hype?
    It’s the very same phone with only 3G support and assisted GPS.
    Same software.
    Same lack of features.

    I want installer back.
    And freedom with it!
