iPhone Killer 2 - Storm Warning

1649191 — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 07:08:00 GMT

I predicted a few weeks ago in my blog that the G1 from Google wouldn't be the iPK (iPhone Killer). Well, time will tell whether I'm right or not. Well a new week, a new phone and this one (in my opinion) has more chance of winning the clash of the touch titans. The Blackberry Storm (pic below) will be launched this side of Xmas in the UK exclusively through Vodafone with pretty much all the features of the iPhone (and a few more besides). For instance it will be 3G enabled (natch), it has a 3.2 mp camera with video function, GPS capacity, mp3 etc. And one advantage it has over the Google G1 ? This one actually looks the part.

However, the main feature of the Storm is actually the touch screen itself. It apparently has a 'clickable screen'. So what does that mean exactly ? Well, the screen is kind of flexible and responds to how hard you touch it. In theory you will be able to type things much more easily because you know that the click has been registered by the Storm because the screen will depress slightly. Sounds cool right ? (and from experience of the iPhone I know that sometimes your touch commands are not all that easily registered by the unit, so the reassuring analog nature of a kind of soft click sounds funky).

As for price, well expect it to be pitched around the same as the iPhone. And with a legion of Crackberry addicts (me included) waiting impatiently for a touchscreen version of our constant companion I reckon that this little baby may just be the real rival for the iPhone we have been anticipating.

What a disaster, hundreds queuing and no network. I hope you didn't camp out. I can't believe some people paid for a place i the queue. Student David Suen bought his place at the front of the Regent Street queue off eBay for less than £50, according to the BBC.

Will You be Buying The New 3G iPhone?

I won’t be cause I’m very happy with my HTC TyTN II thank you very much, but I know a load of people who will upgrade.

In all my years in the tech sector I don’t think I’ve quite seen grown men drool and salivate over a piece of hardware as they have the iPhone. The staggering regression into childlike “oohs and aaahs” has been fascinating to watch.

I’m sure many of these guys haven’t felt quite like this since they boarded their first steam train or clocked a digger on a building site next to their elementary school!

It is very cool....

In Apple's own words the new model will provide:

“...fast 3G wireless technology, Maps with GPS, support for enterprise features like Microsoft Exchange and the new App Store, iPhone 3G puts even more amazing features in your hands. And just like the original iPhone, it combines three products in one — a revolutionary phone, a widescreen iPod and a breakthrough Internet device with rich HTML email and full web browsing. iPhone 3G.”

The iPhone going 3G is a fabulous thing for the mobile advertising industry. Back in January, Media Week published a feature on what sort of impact the iPhone was having in the market place. There were the usual gripes; no keyboard and no stylus leading to “fat finger syndrome,” (speak for yourself!), while surfing the internet, but the biggest issue was the speed.

But even with slow connections The FT reported Google seeing 50 times more searches on the iPhone than other handset, which shows the new browser was helping users engage and start to discover the internet through their mobile device.

With Microsoft launching Windows Mobile 6.1, and a much better browsing experience coming in the Autumn, the stage is set for mobile web interaction and advertising opportunities to really take off.

When I said I’d done all my 2006 Xmas shopping on my mobile at Search Marketing World in Dublin last year, they laughed!

When it was mentioned at the same conference this year, they giggled!

I hope next year they’ll simply say, “So what? So did I!”

You can't compare the price of the iPhone 3G to a normal touchscreen phone. It's like nothing else on the mobile market for ease of use and what it's capable of. It's not a smartphone, it's not a Crackberry. It's not an iPod on a phone. It can do so much more that either and with the new apps being written everyday, it will do what ever you need it to. Bye bye Blackberry.
