"USA Today looks at the convergence of cell phones and consumer electronic devices as the impending launch of the Apple iPhone looms. Although the industry is rolling out new handsets with multimedia capabilites, many question if consumers even want such functionality. David Chamberlain, at In-Stat said, "People are not really flocking to phones with new features. They just want to talk on the phone." According to a recent In-Stat survey, there is relatively little interest so far in new phone add-ons, such as video."
It's true folks. Most people don't need to watch a 2 hour movie on their cell phone or listen to hours of music on them either. I think the iPhone recently announced is just another egg Motorola has laid. Especially considering its silly limitations such as a 100 song limit and you can't download music over the air. Are these companies just making stuff up as they go or do they really know what we want?
