The iBabysitter?

Posted by on June 30th, 2007 at 3:00 pm

Apple released their much anticipated iPhone on Friday evening. It is a combination phone, mp3 player, email client, digital camera, and web browser. Although I can’t find it anywhere on the spec sheet, it’s rumored the iPhone also cures cancer and makes its user ten times sexier.

For you gadget hounds who haven’t been able to convince your significant other that $600 isn’t too much to pay for a phone, I mean, a new way of life, ZDNet’s Denise Howell has an angle you may wish to try: toddler control. Kid pitching a fit in the middle of Starbucks? With a few simple touches of the screen of the iPhone, you can bring up Schoolhouse Rock‘s “Three Is a Magic Number” from YouTube and you can return to sipping your latte in peace.


Sign me up! But at six hundred bucks, it really should be able to change a diaper or two.

I can vouch for the iPhone curing diseases and being uncool.

Since getting it – I’m now more popular than Marcia Brady, and I can now see through walls.

Oh my HOLY, I didn’t realize how much it cost!! My brother got one for his girlfriend and I was playing with it yesterday, and now I’m scared to touch it… that’s almost a month’s rent! It was really awesome, though.

How much would a regular ipod plus another smartphone or a regular free phone and a palm pilot cost together? Am I wrong or is this supposed to be all three in one pocket?
