iPhone Slippin’ Away
04.30.07 - 12:08pm
The iPhone has an incredibly slick design look, but word is the slick not only applies to the look but to the grip as well - something not so great in a $600 phone.
The last thing you want is the phone to go sliding out of your hand as you are walking down the street, for when phone meets sidewalk… - who do you think will win?
Ah well, at least the battery is now being pronounced good with a five hour talk time. And if the phone is super slippery (reported okay until you get past the 15 minute mark - must be when your hand starts to sweat) that just means that accessory makers will have a new item to build a business around.
I imagine that iPod case makers are working on designs for the iPhone as I type, of course this takes away the iPhone look but then again it also makes it uniquely yours and when it is dropped you don’t have to see $600 flash before your eyes.
