Default Re: Time names iPhone Invention of the Year

Ok. No doubt it has to be the invention of the year. An amazing concept, nicely put forward, shook the competitors in its field.

But a lot many stones were left unturned. Still cannot understand why the API was not released with the launch or even before the launch, why after calling the applications dangerous to the network, should you yourself allow such applications? Apple surely does bank on short term memories.

Just a few points from the times review -
It's a genuine handheld, walk-around computer, the first device that really deserves the name.
Which feature of iPhone makes it a walk-around computer which the phones before it did not have? N95, E90, P990i (i dont know when did P1 release. Feature wise, all these phones outpar iPhone, still it is the first handheld computer?
