Mossberg offers first iPhone impressions
"They are claiming that through clever software they have figured out a way for this to be actually far more accurate and efficient than you think it will be, and I’m testing that proposition," said Mossberg. "And I can tell you that in the first hour it works a little better than I thought, but I’m still not sure it works as well as a regular keyboard - and the first hour is not a very fair test, so I’m going to keep going at it."
The columnist pointed to the iPhone as the "next level of elevation of the cellphone" after predicting the end of the PC era. Mossberg believes iPhone is the next generation "not because it's better or necessarily better than your Blackberry [...] but this runs a real computer operating system."

he's already seen it and wrote about it once, and he'll likely do the typical whining about the lack of 3G and single carrier and EDGE stuff that everyone is pointing to (in desperation).
or maybe he'll hate it. if he does, you can shave a good few bucks off AAPL if not more. this guy has clout.
My bet is the 12th app is the "Movies" widget that His Steveness demo'd at WWDC.
And of course Walt is going to like it. He effuses love on Apple all the time...
Since when does an iPod require an iTMS account? Unless you're playing iTMS music?
Again, if you don't have music, why do you have to sign up for an account?
Yeah APPL stock miught drop a point or two after Walter bitches about the lack of Windows OS functionality becuase he can't play the PC version of DOOM on the thing --
BUT that'll suck [for Apple] when everyone around ends up buying iPhones left and right and the stock hits +$50 per share [that's $50 more than what it's worth now - 'cause I know someone will misread that and tell me that Apple stock is already worth more than $50 per share - duh!] instead of +$51.85_
Yep - the stock holders are going to have ahissy fit over a buck eighty-five and won't be able to go on 2 skiing trips this winter_
