The iPhone

• The iPhone has a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
  screen that provides a crisp, clear image. The
  screen is also touch screen which allows you
  perform all of the features by hand. On the one
  small screen you can text message, e-mail, dial
  numbers, etc. There are no small plastic buttons
  to push or swiveling features to this phone. It
  is basic and ready to use in your hand.

What Drives the iPhone

• Believe it or not the iPhone has the same
  operating system as the Mac computer. It is the
  Mac OS X and it will also have the same widgets
  as the computers. By having the same operating
  system, it really is just like having your desk
  or laptop in the palm of your hand.

Competitors

• The iPhone is not the first of its kind by any
  means. For the past several years its
  competitors have been making users lives easier
  with other PDA cell phones. Others include
• Palm Treo - made by Motorola and used on almost
  all cell phone carriers.
• Blackberry also made by motorola and is also
  capable on most cell phone carriers. The
  difference between the two is the operating
  systems are made by different publishers.
• Each cell phone provider has come their own
  version. The most common operating system is the
  Microsoft Windows Mobile.

Carriers of the iPhone

• There is only one cell phone carrier for the
