Yep, that’s right. I’m here at the Apple Store trying out the iPhone. So far, its been a good experience, however I haven’t seen anything that particularly wows me. I think that it might have to do with the fact that the features alone aren’t all that impressive, but what the iPhone offers is the integration of all of the features. With the keyboard, I have tried to jump right into it with typing with two thumbs and absolutely no training at all. The keyboard seems to catch most of my mistakes, probably about 70% of them, although sometimes it lets a few really strange mistakes pass through as words.
I thought I might take some pictures like Larry did, but apparently it is store policy that pictures aren’t allowed. So Larry, I think you’re in trouble.
Okay, that’s all for this post. My main opinion from blog posting from this keyboard: Thank goodness I have a laptop.

An employee sat there and watched me take pictures so it’s probably only in your store bud.

They said it was Apple’s policy, no photos inside the store. Outside the store is okay (I made sure that I didn’t have to take down the 311 photos from last Friday), but inside the store, nope.
I might also mention that I thought that the Safari browser left a lot to be desired, mostly because it really didn’t work. Every website I tried either didn’t load at all or didn’t load any images until after I did multiple refreshes–took five tries to load amacgenius.com for example, and I never got phpBB.com to even display. It’s not the network, because I can load those websites right the first time at the same Apple Store network here on my MacBook.
And for someone who is used to typing as fast as I do, that keyboard was torture. I don’t care how intelligent they claim it to be, there were a lot of times where I made obvious mistakes which iPhone didn’t even attempt to correct.
