Okay so you've got a huge load of money burning a hole in your pocket and you fancy going buying a new cell phone. You search around the shops for a while looking for a great priced phone with all the latest gadgets, you then stumble over the iPhone. You check out all of its cool gadgets and features like its multimedia capabilities, it's email and web-browsing function, a multi touch screen with various features like the dock, the cool on-screen keyboard and it's huge memory with up to 16GB. But is it really worth getting?
I mean sure it's got all those cool gadgets and apple promises to revolutionize the cell phone forever, but there has to be some flaws right? So you buy your iphone take it home and marvel at it's beauty. It's bright screen which remains bright even under harsh lighting, it's super slim and super sexy. On the top of your iPhone you find the power button, the Sim tray which is ejected by poking a paper clip into a tiny little hole (kind of trick!) and the headphone socket which isn't compatible with most headphones as it's quite deep and thick so if you break the headphones which are supplied your going to have to look pretty hard to pick up some new ones. You then move away from scanning the top part of your iPhone to the left side where you'll find the volume control and volume lock. Around the back of your phone it's pretty blank except the tiny little camera which is capable of taking some pretty clear pictures. So far so good. So now to play around with it. You instantly see the screen is full to bursting with little applications which can be opened with just the touch of a finger. The first application on screen is the SMS page, here is where you can send messages to your friends, not only that but it allows you to see conversations you have sent by another touch of your finger- it's really that easy. Next thing your going to want to do is play with the camera right? Well the camera has two applications, the photo application and the camera application itself. Opening up the camera application reveal a giant shutter on screen where you can see what the camera sees in full screen fashion. You'll then see the shutter release bar at the bottom of the screen, if you rotate your iPhone to it's side the camera shutter will follow staying level with the bottom of your screen. The best thing is it rotates both ways! Again the touch of a finger is in control here and with one touch you can take photographs immediately which adds to your photo
