Having played with and caressed an iPhone for a full three minutes during a group interview with Greg Joswiak, VP iPod products at Apple, I was awestruck by the simplicity, yet power of this unbelievably slim and sleek device. However, one gets the feeling that Apple is still keeping a tight rein on letting us know what drives this device and what it can and cannot do that we haven’t already seen.

Steve Jobs had done it – he’s wowed the world with the next generation iPod called ‘iPhone’ due in the US June 2007 – a widescreen iPod, phone and Internet device that’s not only all-in-one, but is the world’s thinnest phone at 11.6mm, runs desktop class apps and much, much more. It’s the gadget of the decade! Totally, utterly, jaw-droppingly amazing.
