re: iPhone Killer ?

Is it an iPhone killer (or 'IPK', as some people are already saying)? Does it really matter? When Fiat launched their new 500, we weren't falling over ourselves to ask whether it was a Mini killer, were we? (Besides, that's Verne Troyer's job). It's definitely the Operating System that's the biggest threat to the mobile industry's status quo - and that'll happen when, as Steve says, there are a few more Android-powered phones out there.

Blackberry isn't much of a name either - I think for some users, me included the slide outboard is pretty nice addition.

Hi Lazar, more than happy for you to feature the post on your blog. be good to get a thread going. I reckon this is potentially going to be a huge issue for advertisers. Not many people have really even thought about it yet... but are going to have to very soon. Maybe a follow up piece about the pitfalls for marketeers will be useful as you suggest... so I will do just that. Cheers Steve

Good one mate.

I really think you should elaborate a bit more on potential dangers to marketeers, as this is going to become quite a big issue. Clients are currently oblivious to this and I didn't hear a lot of my digital marketing colleagues talking about is as well.

You OK if I refer to this post on my blog, I'd try to kick-start a bigger discussion on the topic?

With the introduction of the 'Omnibar' in Google's new browser, and it's ability to display historical web pages based on keywords typed as opposed to just URLs, it would seem that well written and relevant content is more important than ever. And given the proliferation of garbage on the internet I for one welcome that with unbridaled joy.

How come you claim to be in Singapore but have not mentioned the food? Are you the sort of person who eats at Don Burger?

Is it something to do with reducing grey hair? Dr. Lim Kok sounds to me like he needs the cream more than his customers.

It's a disappointing to see so many sequels/prequels etc are in the pipeline, more so as it comes hot on the heels of the year of the 'threequel'. Having said that I can't wait to see Dark Knight and the fourth Indiana Jones instalment.
