Keeping politicians' hands off the Net & everything else related to technology
Michael Arrington at TechCrunch has posted two videos relating to the iPhone. The first is an interview with Steve Ballmer that gives good insight into the state of competition in the device market. Ballmer scoffs at the iPhone’s high price point (and lack of current availability), while conceding that MSFT is behind in MP3 players. The second video, though, shows just why the iPhone is likely to do well. It may be high-priced, but it has incredible capabilities. Do check it out.
