We couldn't leave you guys hanging after reporting about the company-wide meeting that Steve Jobs called right before the release of the iPhone. While we couldn't send someone there to check it out, ars technica was cool enough to compile what happened from their various sources.The entire speech was regarding the iPhone's introduction into the market and Steve Jobs handled it with his usual panache, saying the iPhone will revolutionize the mobile phone industry. He went on, comparing the iPhone with the original Mac when it came out. He noted that when the latter came out, a lot of people said that it was going to be the industry standard. The iPhone follows the same vein in that sense. Strong words from a man who really believes in his products. He then continued into the integration of the product in the entire Apple business. Steve said introducing it is the same as putting a third leg on a two legged chair. The first leg is the Mac business, which Steve noted as having the "best Macs" ever in the history of the company. The second right now is the iPod and iTunes which as everyone knows really took off and dominated the music industry and mobile music market. The third would be the aforementioned iPhone. He also briefly touched on what he was hoping to be the fourth leg of the chair, the Apple TV. Finally, he addressed a question that befuddled even the Apple fanatics here at QJ, "Why launch at Six PM"? Steve simply said that Apple didn't want people to have to take off from work, so they figured that was a good time to do it. Just when people thought it was over, he dropped the bomb on his employees. It was said that all full time Apple employees in the US and part-time employees with at least a year's tenure will be getting an iPhone at the end of July. So now all we can really do is wait and see if Steve Jobs has once again struck gold with the iPhone. The next few months are going to really decide whether or not this product will be as successful as most have pegged it to be. |
