Apple has finally announced the much awaited Apple iPhone - it’s an iPod, a cellphone, and an internet device in one! Here’s what Apple has to say about it:

iPhone combines three products — a revolutionary mobile phone, a widescreen iPod with touch controls, and a breakthrough Internet communications device with desktop-class email, web browsing, maps, and searching — into one small and lightweight handheld device. iPhone also introduces an entirely new user interface based on a large multi-touch display and pioneering new software, letting you control everything with just your fingers. So it ushers in an era of software power and sophistication never before seen in a mobile device, completely redefining what you can do on a mobile phone.

By the looks of it, it’s an all-screen device sporting a sleek user interface and it runs on the OSX operating system. And oh, apparently Apple won the race against Nokia’s Aeon in building an all-screen cellphone.

The cost??? It’s said that the 4GB version will be sold at around $499 while the 8GB will cost $599. Pretty expensive I would say but with it’s features and stuff, I think it will sell - sell well.
