iPhone Specifications
July 10, 2007
iPhone’s specifications are quite impressive, as they should be for a model that is selling for $500 with a 2-year contract.
iPhone Size and Weight
- Height: 4.5 Inches
- Width: 2.4 Inches
- Depth: .46 Inches
- Weight: 4.8 Ounces
The model is quite large and heavy in actuality. We don’t think it will be a problem for Apple since iPod is also unusually large.
iPhone Storage Capacity
The iPhone currently comes in two versions, the larger ships with 8GB of flash memory, and the smaller ships with 4GB. In both versions, the memory is dedicated for storage, although the actual formatted storage is slightly less than the stated amount.
iPhone Screen
The iPhone is equipped with a 3.5 inch, 480×320 pixel touchscreen. The screen comes with some interesting technologies including an alignment sensor which will rotate the screen’s picture according to which direction the user holds it in.
iPhone Operating System
iPhone operates on OS X.
Network Capability
The phone part of the model is equipped to operate on Quad-band (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz) GSM. iPhone also comes set up to connect to Wi-Fi (802.11b/g), EDGE, andBluetooth 2.0+EDR.
Camera
Both models of iPhone come with a 2.0 megapixel camera.
Audio
The model supports the following audio formats: AAC, Protected AAC, MP3, MP3 VBR, Audible (formats 1, 2, and 3), Apple Lossless, AIFF, and WAV
Video
The model supports the following video formats: .m4v, .mp4, .mov, H.264, MPEG-4
Battery Life
The iPhone uses a rechargeable lithium ion battery. Apple says that users can expect up to 8 hours talk time, 250 hours of standby, 6 hours of internet use, 7 hours of video playback, and 24 hours of audio playback. Usually the times manufacturers state are ridiculously overstated, so keep that in mind. 
iPhone Pictures
July 3, 2007
Here are some iPhone pictures that have been floating around the web:
This picture of the iPhone gives a real idea of the size and shape of the model. It’s also probably a psychological experiment by Steve Jobs to see if showing the model with a hand makes you picture yourself holding it.
You also get a glimpse into just how brilliant the screen is on the iPhone - it appears more like an LCD television that it does like an LCD computer monitor.
This photo of the iPhone is probably the one that has circulated around the most.
Picture Of Steve Jobs Holding An iPhone
Here is a picture of Apple CEO and master branding expert of our universe Steve Jobs, holding the iPhone prior to its release.
Steve has been using the iPhone as his personal model for quite some time, and uncharacteristically broke the news that a cell phone from Apple was coming late last year.
The model was officially introduced at Mac World, which is where this shot was initially taken.
iPhone Concept Mock Photo
This was one of the initial concepts designed by someone who was definitely way off.
As you can see, the mock model looks very much like an iPod, but the iPhone didn’t come out this way at all.
Apple definitely created something original with the iPhone, it doesn’t look like anything else, and thank goodness. This concept is hideous.
