The HTC
Have you heard the hype about the new HTC Touch phone as being a possible Apple iPhone killer?
No one understands.
The Touch will not even come close. It will fall into obscurity like all the other PDA phones out there.
Why?
Because it uses an expandable SD card for memory expansion.
Why does that matter?
Let me ask you: do YOU like buying memory cards for your phone? Do you like fumbling around with that little card?
Do
you want to go out and purchase a bigger memory card right after you
dropped hundreds of dollars on a phone that is supposed to be the Holy
Grail of all phones?
No, I’m sure you’d rather do what Apple is suggesting: buy an iPhone and be done with it!
No
fooling around with delicate little cards. No shopping around online or
at various malls in order to find the cheapest price on a 4Gb card.
Seamlessness. Simplicity. Not complications.
The
sooner manufacturers figure out that iPhone is outselling their own
“copy-cats” because IT IS A HARD-DRIVE PHONE, the better. (Ok, so the iPhone really uses flash memory; it’s not a hard-drive phone yet)
Why are iPods selling better than the mp3 players that were around before iPod? Because they’re hard drives.
Why will iPhones sell better than mp3 player phones? Because they’re hard drives.
It’s clear to me. It’s unclear to manufacturers and wireless providers.
I have a message to all the manufacturers & providers: when you finally figure out that what I’m saying is right, you can hire me as a high-paid consultant!
Just keep reading my wireless industry news and soon you’ll be as smart as I am.
