They contend some of the phone’s much-touted features - such as its touch screen, movement sensors and music player - are not innovative or new." Surprisingly, this is true. However, add some sparkle and some new tricks and you take a new spin an an old idea and it becomes a new idea. Put some marketing and cute models with some teenage kids with a user frienly interface on the coat tails of your last succcess and you won't fail. Apple has done preciely that and turned that new idea into a cash cow and these companies are tryignt o figure out how to do that very thing in order to compete. the features mentioned HAVE beent here for at least 6 months to a year! The one flaw in the plan was that the people who already bought the iphone got understandably mad when the price dropped so suddenly in order to lur more people to buy it. “Apple’s competitors predict that even as the gadget will likely boost the company’s fortunes, it will have limited market share and fall short of the successes Apple has seen with its iPod portable music player.
